Preparation of cellulose type underwater non-segregation admixture was attempted and the hardening characteristics of underwater concrete according to the addition of this admixture was investigated in order to make underwater concrete with the compressive strength ratio of 0.8 to that of concrete manufactured in common atmosphere. The proposed underwater non-segregation admixture consisted of methyl cellulose of 0.4% by weight, silicon type antifoaming agent of 20% by weight, and sodium aluminate of 0.1% by weight to the amount of cement as setting accelerant, respectively. As the proposed non-segregation admixture was increased, the amount of suspended solid decreased, air content in concrete was increased but the flow loses by elapsed time did not change. The proper amount added of the proposed non-segregation adimixture was 0.8 wt% to the amount of cement. The compressive strength of the test sample underwater concrete manufactured by the addition of the proposed admixture was $325Kg/cm^3$, and the ratio of compressive strength of this sample concrete to that of a concrete manufactured in air was 0.94.

In this paper, the slump flow of the concrete, suspension, pH, corrosion effect, bleeding and the characteristics of coompressive strength were analyzed using antiwashout underwater admixture and antiwashout underwater agent+corrosion inhibitor mixed admixtures(1type). The results showed that there were no rare difference in physical properties but in the results of rapid corrosion tests there were lots of corrosion inhibitor ratio differences between concrete using only antiwashout underwater admixture and the corrosion inhibitor mixed(1type). In the case of only antiwashout underwater admixture 5.4%, the case corrosion inhibitor mixed(1type) 0.07%, the Antiseawater of the concrete which uses the Corrosion Inibitor Mixed(1type) appeared highly.

Recently the use of the antiwashout underwater concrete with the antiwashout admixture is increased considerably. Antiwashout underwater concrete is quite different in concept from conventional underwater concrete. By mixing an antiwashout admixture with concrete, the viscosity of the concrete is increased and its resistance to segregation under the washing action of water is enhanced. The aims of this research is statistically evaluated to mix proportion factor of antiwashout underwater concrete. Experiment was performed to analyze the influence variables(cement, water, and antiwashout admixture) on fundamental characteristics of antiwashout underwater concrete. The influence variables can be considered for use in a wide range of underwater work where their have statistically significant effect on the characteristics(fluidity, filling ability, resistance to washout, etc.) of antiwashout underwater concrete.

Among the sewage pipes installed in Korea, the length of concrete pipes exceeding 20 years is 66,334 km (42.5%). Deteriorated concrete sewer pipes need to be repaired due to the leakage of internal sewage, which causes problems such as sink holes by expanding the cavity around the pipeline. In this study, we tried to apply anti-washout underwater mortar with ultra rapid hardening cement and segregation reducing agent to sewage pipe repair. As a result of the setting time test, the final set time was delayed by up to 172% by incorporating segregation reducing agent. In the test for measuring the degree of mortar segregation in water, it was measured at pH 12 or less under all mixing conditions. In addition, the suspension amount was measured to be 50 mg / l or less to satisfy the KCI-AD102 standard by incorporating a segregation reducing agent. In terms of the average value of mortar compressive strength, by incorporating segregation reducing agent, the strength of the specimens produced in air was more than 80% of that of the specimens produced in water. Conversely, the bond strengths of the specimens produced in water were measured to be higher than those of the specimens produced in air. Water resistance was evaluated by measuring water absorption and water permeability. Water absorption and water permeability were reduced by 42.6% and 36.6%, respectively, by mixing segregation reducing agent.

This paper is to investigate the Fluidity of Antiwashout Underwater Concrete containing Fly Ash. The results of study are concluded as follows: the increase in Slump Flow value did not happen in the plain concrete which was replaced cement by Fly Ash; however, the maximum value could reach in the replacement of 30% of Fly Ash by weight of cement in the Fly Ash replaced concrete. On the condition of Fly Ash-Antiwashout Underwater Concrete in expecting 50 cm of the Slump Flow, it was necessary that the usage amount of Superplasticizer be around 1% of unit Binder, and 1.5% in 60 cm of the Slump Flow, respoectively.

The concretes cast in the sea water would be likely to be rich mix and mass concrete. Therefore it is important to check out the hydration heat of concrete and to reduce it to prevent the concrete from processing the temperature crack. Recently the antiwashout agent is used on underwater concrete for preventing from the segregation of concrete in the water. The experimental studies were done for the combined cement replaced by fly ash 30%unit weight of binder to study on the characteristics of hydration heat of antiwashout underwater concrete, and its characteristic was discussed by comparing on cast in sea water with anther one in air. The present paper showed that the hydration heat concrete replaced by 30%of fly ash was more significantly reduced than the normal concrete. The hydration heat of antiwashout underwater concrete was highter than that of normal concrete, but it was reduced lower than the normal concrete by adding fly ash.

Recently, underwater concrete constructions are increasing. Therefore it is considered important to control the quality of underwater concrete. In this paper, we have an intention of evaluating fundamental properties of underwater concrete using the anti-washout admixtures. Thus, it has been investigated that the setting slump flow of the concrete, pH value and suspended solids in solution, compressive strength on both of specimens made above and under water. Also the percentage of fine aggregate has been found to alter the compressive strength in underwater concrete.
