The objective of this experimental investigation was to examine the fundamental properties of antiwashout underwater concrete. Expriments were conducted on the antiwashout property in underwater, the compressive strength in the air and in underwater, setting time, slump flow loss. As a result, a dosage of 2.0-2.5kg/$\textrm{m}^3$ antiwashout admixture was found to be appropriate not to cause water pollution and to provide a reliably good compressive strength in underwater concrete. Also, the experimental results showed that the amount of less than 50mg/$\ell$ suspended solid was required to obtain the underwater to air compressive strength ratio of more than 80%

An experimental study is carried out to estimate the effects of mixing and placing condition on the mechanical properties of anti-washout concrete. According to the test results, mixing method and placing temperature do affect the characteristics of rrsh concrete, while they do not affect the strength development of anti-washout concrete. But, concrete strength was greatly affected by the placing condition and placing height. Concrete strength decreases linearly as the placing height increased. Compared to the normal concrete, the increase in strength is not associated much with an increase in the elastic modulus of anti-washout concrete.

Recently, antiwashout underwater concrete has used for underwater structure such as high strength massive concrete structures. When, concrete is placed in seawater the quality and durability of concrete could be doubt to especcially because the amount of cement placed in the concrete can be diminished by flowing seawater. In this study, antiwashout underwater concrete mixed with mineral admixtures for improvement of properties was placed in air, water, and salt water. Half-cell potential and current density was of specimens which made under different conditions measured for estimating corrosion degree. The experimental results demostrate that corrosion resistantce in saltwater was little and mineral admixtures improved properties of concrete.

The objective of this study makes investigation into the effect on the properties of underwater antiwashout concrete. which is followed by mixing time and mixing quantity. There is an tendency that (the compressive strength of underwater antiwashout concrete made and cured in fresh water or sea water) is increase when dry mixing time, mixing quantity, total mixing time is increase as unit weight grows. The difference of compressive strength (in case of no dry mixing time and 60 second) is averagely 46.8kgf/㎠ in the fresh water and 35.6kgf/㎠ in sea water. it's considered that dry mixing is dispersed by underwater antiwashout admixture.

The objective of in this study makes investigation into the characteristics of antiwashout underwater concrete as to mix proportion, casting and curing water through experimental researches. in this study, sea sand is blended with river sand, crushed sand is blended with river sand and sea sand as to investigate the quality change and characteristics of antiwashout underwater concrete with variation of blend ratio of sea sand and crushed sand(0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100%). Higher compressive strength is measured following the order of river sand, sea sand, crushed sand regardless of age and casting condition. Except for case of using river sand, blended ratio of 40% is appeared on most compressive strength.

This paper is evaluated for properties of aggregate and antiwashout admixture not only to minimize segregation and water contamination of underwater concrete but also to meet concrete quality required. Two antiwashout admixtures used in this study were available domestically and slump flow, pH, setting time, and filing property of fresh concrete and the compressive strength, flexural strength under water and in the air under 2 different curing conditions ($10^{\cire}C$ and $20^{\cire}C$ ) were measured. Compressive strength ratio of specimens cured in and water temperature $10^{\cire}C$ /$20^{\cire}C$ added HPEC and HPMC was 64% and 89%, respectively. Relative compressive strength of 2 kinds observed higher concrete added HPEC, 3% at $10^{\cire}C$ curing temperature, 34% at $20^{\cire}C$ . The flexural strength of specimens made under water was 1/4~1/6 of compressive strength similar to the existing data in the literature.

When placed under water, concrete is diluted with separating cementitious material and as a result the quality of concrete becomes poor. So as to solve the problem, underwater concrete is increasingly used for the construction and repair of the concrete structure under water. In this paper, 4 kinds of antiwashout admixtures and varying sand percentages were chosen to measure the suspended solids, pH, air contents, setting time and compressive strength of underwater concrete, and they meet "Standard for antiwashout admixture used for concrete". When sand percentage is 43%, the fluidity and filling of underwater concrete are superior to the others.he others.

The objective of this study is to investigate the bond strength properties of antiwashout underwater concrete. The arrangement of bars (vertical bar, horizontal upper bar, horizontal lower bar), condition of casting and curing (fresh water, sea water), type of fine aggregate (river sand, blended sand(river sand : sea sand = 1:1), and proportioning strength of concrete (210, 240, 270, 300, 330kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$)are chosen as the experimental parameters. The test results(ultimate bond stress) are compared with bond and development provisions of the ACI Building Code(ACI 318-89) and proposed equations from previous research(which was proposed by Orangun et. al). The experimental results show that ultimate bond stress of antiwashout underwater concrete which arranged bar on the horizontal lower, used the blend sand, and was cast and cured in the fresh water are higher that other conditions. The ultimate bond stress were increased in proportion to {{{{( SQRT {fcu }) }}3 2. From this study, rational analytic formula for the ultimate bond stress are to be from compressive strength of concrete.

Recently, the anriwashout underwater concrete has been increasingly used for underwater structures such as vary high diaphrame walls of high strength massive concrete structures. In this study, experiments were made on the fundamental properties of antiwashout underwater concrete replaced with Fly Ash from 10% to 30% to improve its properties. Resultant to the test, we got the results as follows; the value of slump flow wasi ncreased, the setting, time was very delayed, and the heat evolution amount decreased, whereas the amount of suspended solids became high, and pH value became low as to increasing the replacement ratio of Fly Ash. Also the ratios of compressive strength (in water compared to in air) at 28day were obtained over 90%, and these values were satisfied with 70% of a criterion.

The objective of this study is to find the long-age strength property and the compressive strength of age which is used as the specified concrete strength. The W/W ratio (45%, 50%, 55%, 60%) fine aggregate of useful river sand or blended sand(river sane : sea sand=1:1) were chosen as the experimental parameters. the experimental results show that pH(it means the material segregation resistance) & suspension were increased larger, so W/C become larger, and slump flow was increased as W/C increased (except W/C=60%), air-contents were decreased as W/C became increase and all of this results are satisfied with the under of 40%. The compressive strength ( a case use only river sand as fine aggregate) is showed less than the case of blended asnd. Because the unit weight of the blended sand is more heavy than the unit weigh of the river sand. The results of the case which haven been used only river sand, and the case have been used blended sand), both case have considered W/C. So it's possible to use the compressive strength of age 28 day like the case of plain concrete.
