The durability of concrete and the water-tightness properties of cementitous material are closely relation. So, water-tightness materials as natural minerals, organic fatty acid, organic fatty salts inorganic materials use for improvement of concrete durability. But these materials are somehow different in water-tightness mechanism. In this study, we studied on hydration properties and water-tightness properties of cementitous materials with zinc-stearate, a kind of organic fatty acid salts.

We studied on the watertightness improvement of cementitious material for durability enhancement of concrete. For improvement of watertightness of OPC and OPC with fly ash, we used various materials with watertightness properties to OPC and OPC with fly ash. The performance of watertightness improvement of cementitious materials closely related to formation of CSH by pozzolanic reaction and to reducing of size of contact angle in cement pore by using organic fatty acid. And volume of CSH formation at early hydration have an influence of watertightness improvement and reduction of long-term water absorption rate. In using of fly ash, improvement of workability by using the spherical fly ash caused to densify on the structures of cement material and CSH formation by pozzolanic reaction and cement using fly ash also caused watertightness improvement of cementitious materials. For improvement of concrete durability by watertightness, cementitious materials need using watertightness materials and at using fly ash, also it have to the effect of improvement of watertightness of cementitious materials by pozzolanic reaction.

It is well known that the properties of concrete such as the compressive strength, water permeability, water tightness and durability are affected by micro-structure in hardened cement paste. Especially, for durability of concrete, watertightness of cementitious materials is the most critical property among various properties. Recently, many types of material such as organic and/or inorganic materials are used for watertightness of concrete. In this study, we examined the effect of fluorine-based emulsion on watertightness property. And we also discussed the change of microstructure and formation of hydrates in hardened cement paste by the addition of fluorine-based emulsion. Cement paste with fluorine-based emulsion showed improvement of watertightness by the surface activation of cement paste and by formation of $CaF_2$ fine crystals in cement pore structure.

This study is an evaluation of the water-tightness properties of rain-block systems in the sliding-roof joint of large-span membrane structures. In this study, we suggested a method of evaluating the water-tightness performance of the joint part of a sliding door in the roof of a large-span membrane structure (for a pilot project), in an environment of rain and wind. The shape of the rainwater blocking systems of the joint part in a sliding door verifies the defects and the effects of water leakage prevention when there is precipitation with wind conditions. To secure the water-tightness of large span membrane structures, it is necessary to have a guideline on the evaluation of the design for rain-block system of the joint part, and the quality of the membrane material, both of a retractable roof and a closed roof.

In this study, an experiment was conducted on the development and performance of self-propelled vehicles to repair defects in concrete sewage pipes. The self-propelled vehicle for a non-excavation repair for the sewage pipe defects was developed in consideration of the performance of the driving system, the feasibility of the repair unit, and the transportation of repair materials. In order to evaluate the performance of the developed self-propelled vehicle, a repair test was performed by simulating a defect at a connection between the main pipe and extruded one. The main sewage pipe was meade of concrete and its diameter was 500mm. Thereafter, watertightness performance was evaluated on the leakage at the repaired part. For watertightness performance, both ends of concrete sewage pipe and connected one was inserted by plugs, and then water was injected. The amount of leakage water measurement was 0.07L/㎡, indicating a value less than 0.2L/㎡ of the allowable leakage amount. Therefore, test results indicated that the self-propelled vehicle developed in this study exhibited excellent maintenance performance for repairing the sewage pipes.

This study was conducted to examine the feasibility of preparing a durability evaluation plan in watertightness for sealant applied to a PC structure. To this end, 5 types of sealant that equally satisfy the quality standards of the relevant KS standard were selected and tested. Through this testing, it was found that 3 of the 5 types of sealant showed deterioration in watertightness and durability, such as falling off and cracking from the substrate. For the remaining two types, a visual observation showed no significant changes, but additional analysis, confirmed that there was a large difference in the stress reduction rate of the material. Therefore, based on the above results, the need for a performance review in durability between sealant was confirmed, and based on this, the validity of the durability evaluation plan that can be used in product selection was quantitatively confirmed.

In this study, hybrid method using polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) which has a strong adhesion and flexibility in which acrylic copolymer chemical-reaction reacts with cement, and is eco-friendly, is to improve the watertightness. The hybrid method is applied applied primarily waterproof stuff comprising silicate system and secondary mortar mixed with PVAc on the concrete surface. And then, in order to evaluate the performance, the properties of bond strength and amount of water absorption were measured. Based on the above experiments, mock-up specimens for field application were fabricated, and then the properties were evaluated as laboratory experiments. As the results, specimens cast from hybrid method using PVAc showed the best results on watertightness and bond strength. And also, with respect to experiment of mock-up specimens, the properties were in agreement with laboratory results. Especially, it could know that PVAc has strengthening effect from the results of the compressive strength. Due to outstanding results of carbonation depth and resistance to chloride ion penetration, it may be applied in weak areas such as underground and marine structures.

With the increased demand for membrane structures in recent years, there have been many studies of their mechanical properties, to the extent that such structures have become recognized as independent structures with a level of safety and durability comparable to those of other general structures. But in reality, the study for the maintenance of membrane structures has not been as active. In particularly, the study of watertightness from the perspective of maintenance has been very limited. Accordingly, a study on securing watertightness performance and the guidelines for maintenance is necessary. In this study, through a case study of water leakage accidents in membrane structures overseas, causes of leakage were selected from the membrane material itself, joint parts and open door of roof part in membrane structure. The water leakage and deterioration elements were analyzed from those leakage causes. The degree of importance of the water leakage and deterioration index was also designated using the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method. As a result, the basic technical index was suggested for the maintenance of the roofs of large-span membrane structures to prevent water leakage. This index will be used to make a guideline for the long-term maintenance of the roofs of large-span membrane structures.
