GGBFS(Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) has been widely used in concrete for its excellent resistance chloride and chemical attack, however cracks due to hydration heat and dry shrinkage are reported. In many International Standards, GGBFS with low fineness of 3,000 grade is classified for wide commercialization and crack control. In this paper, the mechanical and durability performance of concrete were investigated through two mix proportions; One (BS) has 50% of w/b(water to binder) ratio and 60% replacement ratio with low-fineness GGBFS, and the other (TS) has 50% of w/b and 60% replacement ratio with 4000 grade and FA (Fly Ash). The strength difference between TS and BS concrete was not great from 3 day to 91 day of age, and BS showed excellent performance for chloride diffusion and carbonation resistance. Two mixtures also indicate a high durability index (more than 90.0) for freezing-thawing since they contain sufficient air content. Through improvement of strength in low fineness GGBFS concrete at early age, mass concrete with low hydration heat and high durability can be manufactured.

GGBFS(Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) is one of the most actively used mineral admixtures with excellent long-aged strength and chloride diffusion resistance. Unlike Standard covering GGBFS in Japan and the U.K., the domestic standard for GGBFS does not contain low fineness of GGBFS under 4000 grade. In this paper, several basic tests are carried out for the concrete with 3,000 grade GGBFS concrete and ternary blended concrete for reducing hydration heat by mixing 4,000 grade GGBFS and fly ash, such as fresh concrete properties, compressive strength, and shrinkage properties. The air content and slump between the ternary blended concrete and the concrete with low-fineness GGBFS showed the similar level, and the results of difference in setting time from them were less than 20 minutes, showing no significant difference. In the evaluation of compressive strength and shrinkage characteristics, the ternary blended concrete showed lower long-aged strength and higher shrinkage than the low-fineness GGBFS concrete.

As recycled fine aggregate manufacturing technology with exceeding in economical efficiency, reduction efficiency of environmental load and quality improvement effect of recycled fine aggregate, it is to develop dry manufacturing system composed specific gravity separator of high-speed rotation impact type and centrifugal Force Powder Collector, etc. in this study. And it is to verify performance with evaluating quality of recycled fine aggregate. In consequence, it is identify that performance improvement effect of recycled fine aggregate by crushing recycled fine aggregate according to high-speed rotation impact, separating and collecting powder and minuteness dust according to centrifugal Force and mass defect, separating and reclaiming minuteness sand to mass defect.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the rheology characteristics of insulating concrete for each type of insulation performance improvement material and utilize the result as preliminary data for optimal flow designing and pumping analysis. As a result, when lightweight aggregate was mixed, the yield stress decreased significantly, and in case of type 2, the combination of micro form cell admixture (MFA) and calcined diatomite powder (DM) showed the most ideal flow characteristics. In case of type 3, the combination of micro form cell admixture (MFA), calcined diatomite powder (DM) and lightweight aggregate (L) showed the best flow characteristics.

For the decades, various of materials were used to instead of cement as the high volume CO₂ occurred during the process of cement manufacture. In this paper, incineration plant ash was used in the mortar which incorporating high volume of blast furnace slag. Water to binder ratio(W/B) is fixed as 50%,BS+RP's replacement ratio is fixed as 80%,and the replacement ratio of WA1 is range as 0,0.5,1,2,3,4,5%.For the fresh mortar, flow and chloride contents has been tested. For the hardened mortar, compressive strength at 3,7,28 days has been tested. the result shows that when the replacement ratio of WA1 is 0.5%,the chloride contents is less than 0,3 kg/m3,the flowability and strength also performed better than other replacement types of mortar.

Portland cement production is under critical review due to high amount of CO2 gas released to the atmosphere. Attempts to increase the utilization of a by-products such as fly ash and ground granulated blast-furnace slag to partially replace the cement in concrete are gathering momentum. But most of by-products is currently dumped in landfills, thus creating a threat to the environment. Many researches on alkali-activated concrete that does not need the presence of cement as a binder have been carried out recently. However, most study deal only with alkali-activated ground granulated blast furnace slag or fly ash, as for the combined use of the both, little information is reported. In this study, we investigated the influence of mixture ratio of fly ash/ blast furnace slag tand curing condition on the flowability and compressive strength of mortar in oder to develop cementless alkali-activated concrete. In view of the results, we found out that the mixture ratio of fly ash/blast furnace slag always results to be significant factors. But the influence of curing temperature in the strength development of mortar is lower than the contribution due to other factors. At the age of 28days, the mixture 50% fly ash and 50% ground granulated blast furnace slag activated with 1:1 the mass ratio of 9M NaOH and sodium silicate, develop compressive strength of about 65 MPa under $20^{\circ}C$ curing.

In this research, based on the condition of using desulfurization gypsum(FGD) as a stimulator for high-volume blast furnace slag cement mortar, sieving and heating process methods of removing activated carbon in FGD were compared with the non-processed FGD and recycled and natural fine aggregates were compared for suitable aggregate to be used. According to the result of experiment, sieving with 0.3mm was more efficient than $500^{\circ}C$ heating for processing the FGD, and recycled fine aggregate showed more favorable result than natural fine aggregate at the FGD content was 5 to 10%. On the other hand, the mortar mixture including recycled fine aggregate had a high drying shrinkage, and absorption ratio, and thus specific limitations on applying recycled fine aggregate should be required.

In this study, the quality of blast furnace slag and the engineering properties of recycled aggregate based mortar with variable replacement of blast furnace slag have been focused. Blast furnace slag(BS) manufactured in various areas in Korea were prepared for this study. For the investigation results, 4 types(among the all of 9 types) of the experimental results were identified as below the standard level when using blast furnace slag chosen from different factories. Especially the particle size of the blast furnace slag was considered as the largest problem. When using BS in the recycled aggregates based mortar, the increase amount of blast furnace slag, increased the fluidity but delayed the setting time and decreased strength at early age. Based on the relationship of the amount of BS and the engineering properties of mortar, this study found that the amount of $SO_3$ and L.O.I affect the setting time, 3 days strength and 91 days strength to the certain standard level.

Nowadays, research about using recycled aggregate as alkali activator has been investigated. By the mechanism of Alkali activation, blast furnace slag's potential hydraulis property would be activated. Thee application of this technique is considered as fit for low strength concrete, so it's suitable in concrete secondary production such as bricks and blocks. Aside alkali activator, sulfate could also activate blast furnace slag's potential hydranlis property. In this research, gypsum(CaSO4·2H2O)has been added with blast furnace slag. Fundamental experiment such as flow and strength has been tested to evalnate effect of gypsum's activation property.
