The bored pile is widely used as a low noise and vibration piling method in Korea. However, there is design tendency to minimize the friction capacity of the bored pile because of uncertainty and the quality control specification is not set up. This research analysed the strength characteristics of cement paste after the uniaxial compression test with various condition. Test results show that the compressive strength of cement paste with w/c=0.83 was up to $156.0kgf/cm^2$, and the lower w/c ratio and the longer age, the strength of cement paste increased. Also the higher soil mixing ratio, the strength of soil cement decreased, and too high soil mixing ratio caused the malfuction of soil cement. Also this research analysed the 188 dynamic pile test results which were performed before and after hardening of cement paste. Analysis result showed that the average ultimate unit friction capacity was $9.1tf/m^2$ and this result surpassed the common design criteria of the bored pile.

Skin friction may be one of the most critical factors in designing the prebored and precast pile. Special attention was given to the interface behavior of cement milk-surrounding soil during the installation of prebored and precast pile. Small-scale field model pile test was conducted for the case of single pile. The size and geometry of the small-scale field model piles were designed with pile length 1.3m, boring diameter 0.067 m. Quick maintain-load test was conducted for the cases of boring diameter 150, 125, 90, 86, 74 mm and water-cement ratio 90, 70, 60%. It was shown that the bearing capacity of the pile increased as the cement-water ratio and cement milk thickness increased. Considering the scale effect between the small-scale model test and the actual construction site, it was found that cement milk thickness of 0.1~0.4D (50~200 mm) was reasonable for the stability of the structure. Also, the proper cement paste water / cement ratio was about 70% when considering the results of this study and quality control.

고강도 시멘트 복합체의 유동성 손실을 감소시키기 위한 연구의 일환으로 시멘트계 입자에 대한 고성능감수제의 흡착특성, 현탄액 속에서의 응집특성을 관찰하여 시멘트풀과 모르터의 유동성과 관련시켜 고찰하였다. 본 연구결과 알루미네이트계 화합물이 많이 함유된 보통포틀랜드 시멘트의 흡착률이 가장 크며, 시멘트풀 및 모르처의 유동성 손실이 작았으며 나프탈린계 고성능 감수제가 유동성 손실면에서 얼마간 유리하였다.

콘크리트는 일반적으로 수회시멘트풀과 골재로 이루어진 이상의 복합체이지만 미시적으로는 수화시멘트풀과 골재, 그리고 천이영역으로 이루어진 삼상의 복합체이다. 수화시멘트풀과 골재 사이에서 형성되는 천이영역은 국부적으로 공극률이 높으므로 콘크리트의 강성과 강도에 많은 영향을 끼친다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 천이영역의 특성을 고려하여 콘크리트의 탄성계수를 추정하기 위해 이원 삼중 내포물 모델을 제안하였다. 제안된 모델에 의한 탄성계수의 추정결과는 실험결과와 비교하여 잘 일치하였으며 제안된 모델은 실험적으로 구하기 힘든 천이영역의 특성을 구하는데 사용될 수 있다.

Skin friction of prebored and precast pile may be one of the most critical factors affecting the bearing capacity and settlement. Special attention was given to the interface behavior of pile-cement milk-surrounding soil when the load is acting on the prebored and precast pile. The cases of single pile were analyzed through a three-dimensional finite element approach and pile loading tests. A series of numerical analyses of the interface of pile-cement milk-soil was conducted with the proposed t-z curve and field measurements. It is shown that the use of cement milk around the pile increases the skin friction and reduces the pile settlement. It is also known that the suggested t-z curve between the cement milk and the soil, enhances the accuracy of the numerical analysis results.

Vicker's hardness and pore size distribution of mortar adhered to the recycled coarse aggregate were tested according to the strength level of original concrete of recycled coarse aggregate to find the change of mortar adhered to the recycled coarse aggregate in cement paste. The strength levels of original concrete of recycled coarse aggregate were 25.5MPa, 41.7MPa and 60.1MPa and the aggregates were used at the state of saturated surface dry condition and oven dry condition. The results of this experimentation indicated that the mean value of Vicker's hardness was increased according to age and strength of original concrete of recycled aggregate. Porosity of $100nm{\sim}10{\mu}m$ size was reduced and porosity of 6nm~100nm size was increased in cement paste.

In this study, a virtual specimen with a linear continuous gradient of void ratio (FGM: Functional Graded Material) is constructed using low-order probability functions of two real cement paste specimens. Two real specimens with difference void ratios are taken from X-ray CT to construct the virtual specimen. A virtual specimen with a gradient void distribution, whose average void ratio is between void ratios of two homogeneous real specimens, is constructed using a stochastic optimization approach. The void ratio distribution is assumed to be linear, and continuously varies in the vertical direction. In this study, a gradient term of void ratio is incorporated into the objective function as well as low-order probability functions from the previous research. To confirm the effect of gradient void distribution on the material response, air permeability is evaluated using finite element analysis. The analysis results are compared with experimental results, and confirm the effect of gradient void distribution on permeability.

The present study proposes an economical embedded ring-sensor that can measure a strain behavior of cement paste and mortar in early age. Using the proposed ring-sensor, the experimental method is proposed that can measure the setting time of the cement paste and mortar conveniently. The experimental study has been conducted using the mixtures of which W/C are 0.30, 0.35, 0.40, and 0.45. From the test result, the setting times measured by convectional test methods such as vicat method and penetration resistance method are compared with the setting time proposed by this study. The result reveals that the proposed ring-sensor can effectively measure the early age behavior so that can evaluate the time when the contraction starts. In addition, the contraction starting time can be regarded as a rational setting time, which is similar to the initial setting of convectional test methods.
