최근 증가하는 현무암 석분슬러지를 건설재료로 재활용하기 위한 방안으로, 시멘트 몰탈에서 잔골재의 일부를 현무암석분슬러지로 대체한 후, 기능성 마감재로서의 성능을 검증한 결과 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 현무암 석분슬러지를 포함한 몰탈의 휨인장강도와 압축강도는, 대체율 21%에 도달할 때까지 압축 및 휨인장강도는 일반 시벤트몰탈 대비 각각 47%와 35% 증가하였다. 2. 원적외선 방사율에 있어서도 기존몰탈보다 높은 0.933까지 이르렀으며, 이 수치는 기타 기능성 마감재보다 우수한 원적외선 방사율을 나타내는 것이다. 3. 음이온 방사량은 현무암석분의 대체율에 따른 일관된 경향을 보이지는 않았으나, 일반 시멘트몰탈 보다는 5% ~ 12% 증가효과가 나타났다. 4. 기존 시멘트몰탈의 잔골재의 21%를 현무암석분슬러지로 대체할 경우, 시멘트 몰탈보다 물리적 성질이 증가 함과 동시에, 기능성몰탈로서의 원적외선 방사율, 음이온 방사량의 증진효과가 있었다. 또한 새로운 건축자재의 생산을 통한 경제적 이득은 물론, 산업폐기물의 양을 줄일 수 있다.

최근 건선산업에서 문제점으로 지적되고 있는 것은 제조과정 중 이산화탄소를 다량 방생시키는 시멘트의 사용이다. 이는 알칼리활성 무기결합재로 대체함으로써 시멘트보다 이산화탄소 배출량을 저감할 수 있지만 고가의 알칼리 자극제를 다량 사용하기 때문에 경제적 측면 및 사용성을 고려하지 않으면 사용할 수 없기 때문에 이에 대한 대체재에 관한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 고로슬래그를 기반으로 하는 알칼리 활성 무기결합재에 알칼리 자극제의 사용량을 저감하기 위해 레드머드를 사용하고, 레드머드에 적합한 알칼리 자극제의 종류와 사용방법에 대하여 연구하고자 하였다.

Over the last decades, great efforts have been devoted to reuse industrial wastes and by-products from various industries as supplementary cementitious materials in order to reduce carbon dioxide(CO₂) emission by reducing the use of Portland cement in construction. Oyster shell waste, originating from the fishery industry, is available in huge quantities in certain areas, and is generally discarded or landfilled. In this study, we aimed to reuse oyster shell as an alternative to limestone in limestone calcined clay cement(LC³). The oyster shell calcined clay cement(OC³) paste were produced and were characterized via X-ray diffraction, isothermal calorimetry, compressive strength tests, and thermogravimetry. The results revealed that OC³ pastes exhibited similar strength development and reactivities by pozzolanic reaction with LC³, which implies that oyster shell could be used as a substitute for limestone in LC³.

In order to improve the dimensional stability and mechanical performance of cement-based composites, the effect of an expansive admixture based on calcium sulphoaluminate (CSA) on the shrinkage and mechanical properties of strain-hardening cement-based composite (SHCC), which exhibits multiple cracks and pseudo strain-hardening behavior in the direct tension, is investigated. Polyethylene fibers reinforced SHCC mixtures with three levels (30, 70, and 100MPa) of compressive strength were compared through free shrinkage, compressive strength, flexural strength, and direct tensile strength measurements. The SHCC mixtures were cast with and without replacing 10% of Portland cement content with CSA admixture. According to test results, CSA admixture is effective in reducing shrinkage of SHCC material. SHCC mixture with CSA admixture exhibited a little higher strength than companion mixture without CSA admixture.

The development of the oil refining industry has resulted in an annual 120 million tons of sulphur, which is a by-product of the desulphurization process. To exploit this abundance, the applications of sulphur must be expanded. as excellent durability of reuse of leftover sulphur which has high potential for utilization in construction materials, the study is actively in progress. Meanwhile, there has been active research on semi-rigid pavements that draw on the strengths and overcome the weaknesses of asphalt and concrete pavements. Acrylate is used to prevent cracking but involves a high cost, thus, an alternative material is required. As such, this study presents methods on the reuse of leftover sulphur and examines the engineering performance of grout containing sulfur polymer emulsion (SPE) for use in semi-rigid pavements. Our analysis shows that grout in which 30% of acrylate is replaced with SPE has superior properties in terms of time of flow and strength compared to regular grout. However, performance declined when more than 50% of acrylate was replaced by SPE, indicating that the optimum replacement level is 30%. Through SEM analysis, we found that grout with utra harding cement in this study at three hours had similar hydration properties to that of Type 1 Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) at seven days, and maintained the properties regardless of grout containing SPE. OPC and grout with a replacement level of 30% displayed similar levels of chloride invasion resistance, whereas grout without SPE was far less resistant. Within the scope of this paper, the optimum replacement level of acrylate with SPE was found to be 30% in consideration of various properties such as time of flow, strength, and chloride invasion resistance.

Utilizing admixture, which is one of the raw material replacement method in the cement industry, is expected to be easily and quickly put to practical use as it is relatively more accessible than other methods. Among cement admixtures, limestone powder is reported to be able to improve cement performance through nucleation effects, chemical effects, and filler effects, so it is a material expected to be suitable as a cement admixture. Meanwhile, as high-quality limestone is depleted around the world, the use of limestone with clay or high magnesia (MgO) content is becoming increasingly inevitable. Therefore, in this study, we attempted to evaluate the suitability of limestone cement as a admixture by measuring the basic properties of limestone cement mixed with limestone of different qualities commonly used in Korea. As a result, the effect of alite reaction promotion was confirmed regardless of the chemical composition of the limestone binder. However, the dilution effect depending on the substitution amount was greater than the chemical composition. It is believed that normal-grade limestone can be used as a mixture as long as the limestone content in cement is within 15 % in this scope of study. In the future, we plan to evaluate the impact of the chemical composition of the limestone mixture through additional experiments depending on the chemical composition of cement.

In many countries, recycling coal ashes as backfill materials for subsided lands, abandoned mine tunnels, and road pipeline constructions by making low-strength concretes with minimal amounts of cement is frequently considered for massive treatment of coal ashes. This study investigates the variation of heavy metals in the concrete test pieces prepared for the cases of using only Portland cement as binding material, fly ash as a replacement of the cement, sand as aggregates, and disposed ashes in the ash ponds as a replacement of aggregates. Heavy metal contents were measured based on the aqua regia extraction technique following the Korean Standard for Fair Testing of Soil Contamination and the influences of each materials on the total heavy metal contents were also assessed. Results show that the cement has the highest Cu, Pb, and Zn concentrations than any other materials. Therefore, the test pieces show significant concentration decreases for those metals when the cement was replaced by fly ash. Ponded ash shows low concentrations relative to fly ash in most of the parameters but shows higher Cu and Ni, and lower Pb levels than the sand aggregate. In overall, heavy metal levels of the test pieces are regulated by mixing among the used materials. Test pieces prepared during this study always show concentrations much lower than the Worrisome Level of Soil Contamination (Area 1), which was designated by the Soil Environment Conservation Act of Korea.

The cement mixtures such as flyash, iron-slag and silica fume have been actively studied in order to increase the quality of concrete. In this study, the grinded copper-slag with different proportion was added to portland cement. The physical properties of the cement mortars, (i.e.) flowability, absorption, compressive strength and flexural strength, were investigated for the potential application to the cement. Also, the influence of the acid on the chemical resistance of the cement mortars with copper-slag was evaluated by monitoring the weight variation of the cement mortars under 5 % sulfuric acid for 28 days.

In this study, in order to evaluate the characteristics of mortar and concrete using wood chip cogeneration plant flooring as fine aggregate, mortar characteristics according to wood chip aggregate replacement rate and water-cement ratio as a substitute for crushed sand, and concrete characteristics according to wood chip aggregate replacement rate were compared and evaluated. The cement mortar flow according to the wood chip aggregate replacement rate showed a tendency to increase as the wood chip aggregate replacement rate increased, and the compressive strength and flexural strength increased as the wood chip aggregate replacement rate increased. The slump and air content of concrete increased as the aggregate replacement rate increased, and the compressive strength and tensile splitting strength of concrete tended to increase as the wood chip aggregate replacement rate increased. Accordingly, the possibility of using the flooring by the cogeneration plant as a fine aggregate for concrete was confirmed.
