The bridge tested was 3 spans 90m-long PSC beam concrete bridge with a stub-type abutment which had a skew of 60$^{\circ}$ about the axis of bridge. A cement concrete was placed at the superstructural slab of the bridge. Inclinometers and straingauges were installed at piles as well. During 7 days-curing of superstructural slab, the pile behavior in response to hydration heat and drying shrinkage of the slab was monitored. Then monitored values were compared with the horizontal movement obtained from the HACOM program and the calculated lateral behavior obtained from the nonlinear p-y curves of pile. As a result, lateral behavior of H-piles by the field measurement occurred due to the influence of hydration heat and drying shrinkage obtained during curing of superstructural concrete. The lateral displacements by hydration heat and drying shrinkage were 2.2mmand 1.4mm respectively. It was observed as well that the inflection point of lateral displacement of pile was shown at 1.3m down from footing base. It means that the horizontal movement of stub abutment did not behave as the fixed head condition of a pile but behave as a similar condition. The measured bending stress did not show the same behavior as the fixed head condition of pile but showed a similar condition. The increment of maximum bending stress obtained from the nonlinear p-y curves of pile was about 300(kgf/$\textrm{km}^2$) and was 2 times larger than measured values regardless of installation places of straingauges. Meanwhile, lateral load, maximum lateral displacement, maximum bending stress and maximum bending moment of pile showed a linear behavior as curing of superstructural concrete slab.

This study investigated a utilization technology of light burned dolomite. light burned dolomite ($CaMg(CO_3)_2$) generated in furnace (steel manufacturer) is an alternative to quick lime. Using light burned dolomite has an effect on reducing the consumption of fluorite slag MgO concentration in supersaturated solution by prolonging the life of softening effect. Armophous MgO, not containing periclase is formed by firing dolomite under $800^{\circ}C$. It has larger surface area and higher reactivity than periclase, and also shows better expansion effect than quicklime. Due to those effects, therefore, armophous MgO produced from light burned dolomite is used as an alternative expansion agent in mortar. In the experiment, characteristics of light burned dolomite were compared to those of existing expansion agents such as anhydrite and quicklime. Then, each expansion and shrinkage rates were measured over a period of about 3 months in both of 1m Jis mold at labscale and apartment mortar flooring at field scale. In the result, it was observed that light burned dolomite in mortar flooring more compensates for the expansion and shrinkage rates than the existing expansion agents, showing low expansion rate of below 0.05% and also decreases the crack.

본 연구에서는 초고강도 콘크리트의 자기수축 제어대책으로서 팽창재를 이용하는 경우의 적절한 첨가량 및 유효성에 대하여 확인하였고, 재팽창 현상에 대해서 검토하였다. 그 결과 물시벤트비가 극히 낮은 초고강도 콘크리트의 특성상 과첨가의 경우는 미반응의 팽창재가 잔존하고 재팽창 할 가능성이 있는 것으로 나타났으며 초고강도 콘크리트용의 팽창재로서는 가능한 미수화 팽창재가 잔존하지 않는 팽창재 즉 팽창성능을 충분히 가지면서 수화반응이 빠른 조강성의 비표면적이 큰 팽창재가 바람직한 것을 제안하고 있다.

고분자 전해질 연료전지는 전해질로 고체고분자막을 사용하는 연료전지로 고분자막은 수소 이온의 활발한 전달을 위해 일정량의 수분이 존재해야 한다. 따라서 연료전지의 운전 중에 고분자막은 항상 수화되어 있어야 하며 수분이 부족하게 되면 수소이온 전도도가 떨어지고, 막의 수축으로 인해 전극과 막 계면의 저항이 증가한다. 반대로 수분이 많이 존재하면 촉매 표면에 반응기체의 확산이 어려워져 전지 성능이 감소하게 된다.(중략)

매스콘크리트 구조물에서는 이미 경화된 콘크리트가 새로이 타설된 콘크리트의 변형을 제한하여 시공직후에 부재의 길이방향에 수직한 균열이 발생하는 경우가 자주 보고 되고 있다. 이 균열은 먼저 타설된 바닥에 대하여 벽체의 변위가 제한될 때 구속인장응력에 의해 발생된다. 이러한 균열의 발생원인은 몇 가지로 살펴볼 수 있는데, 그 하나는 먼저 타설한 바닥 콘크리트와 새로 타설한 벽체 콘크리트와의 수화열 발생의 차이에 의한 것이며, 두번째 이유로 바닥과 벽체사이의 건조수축의 차이를 들 수 있다. (중략)

GGBFS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) is a byproduct with engineering advantages and HVSC (High Volume Slag Concrete) is widely attempted due to active utilization and reduction of eco-load. In the present work, characteristics of drying shrinkage and early-aged behavior are evaluated for the concrete with 65% replacement ratio of GGBFS and 50MPa of design strength. For the work, 3 different mix conditions are considered and several tests including slump flow, compressive strength, drying and autogeneous shrinkage are performed. From the test, OPC 100 mixture without replacement shows higher strength development before 7 days, however the strength reduction in concrete replaced with GGBFS is not significant due to sufficient free water for cement hydration. OPC 100 mixture also shows significant drying shrinkage due to a great autogeneous shrinkage before 3 days. In the concrete with GGBFS replacement, the drying shrinkage behavior is improved due to relatively small deformation by autogeneous shrinkage. The mixture (OPT BS 65) with lower w/b ratio (0.27) and unit content of water ($160kg/m^3$) shows more improved shrinkage behavior than BS 65 mixture which has simple replacement of GGBFS with 0.30 of w/b and $165kg/m^3$ of water unit content.

초유동콘크리트는 유동성 증진 및 충전성 향상을 위해 단위분체량을 크게하기 때문에 콘크리트의 고강도화와 수화발열량을 증가시키는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 초유동콘크리트의 강도조절과 수화열 저감을 위해 쇄석분을 이용하여 초유동콘크리트의 강도, 유동성, 내구성능 및 건조수축 특성을 검토하였다. 실험결과 쇄석분은 치환율 10% 증가시마다 무치환시의 압축강도를 약 10~15%씩 감소시키며, 변형계수와 물구속비를 감소시켜 초유동콘크리트의 유동성 향상에 효과적이다. 또한 초유동콘크리트에서 쇄석분 10%치환시 마다 단위시멘트량 감소에 따른 최고 단열온도상승량을 약 4$^{\circ}C$씩 감소시켰다. 반면 건조수축량은 10%치환시 마다 약 5%증가시켰다. 한편 초유동콘크리트의 내구성능은 단위분체량과 유동성향상에 따른 조직의 치밀화로 쇄석분 치환에 관계없이 상대동탄성계수 90%이상으로 우수하게 나타났다. 이와 같이 분체로서 쇄석분 사용은 치환량에 따른 초유동콘크리트의 강도조절이 가능하며 수화발열량을 저감시킬 수 있다. ^ x Super flowing concrete causes high strength and the increase of heat of hydration because of the big unit powder content of concrete to increase flowability and to improve compact of concrete. Therefore, this study investigates the characteristic properties of strength, flowability, durability and drying shrinkage to control strength and to reduce heat of hydration of super flowing concrete using crushed stone fines. According to the experimental results, when crushed stone fines are increased every 10%, 10~15% of compressive strength is decreased and flowability of super flowing concrete is effectively improved due to the decrease of modulus of deformation and confined water ratio. When crushed stone fines are replaced every 10%, 4$^{\circ}C$ of the highest adiabatic temperature rise is decreased by reducing the unit cement. However, 5% of drying shrinkage is increased in the same condition. In the meantime, durability of super flowing concrete is excellent, having over 90 % of good relative dynamic modulus of elasticity due to fineness of formation caused by the increase of the unit powder content and the improvement of flowability, without regard to the replacement of crushed stone fines. Therefore, it can be said that the usage of crushed stone fines can control the strength of super flowing concrete by replacement and reduce heat of hydration.

The volume change in concrete takes place with changes in temperature and water content immediately after concrete casting. In the early age stage, the thermal and drying shrinkages can cause cracks that are very crucial to the durability of concrete. It was reported that when the cement with lightly-burnt MgO powder was used, the shrinkage of concrete can be reduced. This study investigates fundamental properties of cement composites with lightly burnt MgO powder by performing various experiments. The stability test results verified that MgO powder in cement composites does not cause any abnormal expansion. Also, the hydrate product analysis results obtained from MgO cement paste showed that MgO powder reduces the shrinkage at the longterm ages. In addition, the cement composites containing the proper amount of MgO powder could improve compressive strength. Finally, the shrinkage reduction from using MgO powder can be optimized by increasing MgO replacement level and curing temperature.

Concrete guide rail and median barrier are an attached RC member, however they are vulnerable to cracking due to slip form construction and large surface of member. In this study, causes and pattern of cracking are analyzed through assessment and NDT (Non-Destructive Technique) evaluation for concrete guide rail and median barrier on highway structure. For this work, analysis on drying shrinkage and hydration heat are performed considering installation period, and plastic shrinkage is also analyzed considering their environmental conditions. From the evaluation, plastic settlement around steel location, drying/ plastic shrinkage, and aggregate segregation are inferred to be the main causes of cracking in the structures. The crack causes and patterns are schematized and techniques of crack-control are suggested. Furthermore concrete guide rail/ median barrier in the bridge on the sea are vulnerable to cracking at early age so that special attentions should be paid at the stages of material selection and construction.
