This paper estimates the structural performance of spirally confined concrete having electric arc furnace (EAF) oxidizing slag aggregates. The EAF oxidizing slag is a by-product generated from iron and steel industry. The EAF oxidizing slag have been largely put to low-value-added uses due to its expansive properties of the free-CaO and free-MgO. Recently, this problem has been solved by the advances in steelmaking technology and thereby stabilizing EAF oxidizing slag aggregate. To verify the application of the EAF oxidizing slag aggregate to the structural concrete usage, a total of 27 cylindrical specimens with a diameter of 150 mm and a height of 300 mm were cast and tested. The test parameters were aggregate type and spiral reinforcement yield strength. Experimental results showed that the structural performance of specimens with EAF oxidizing slag aggregates was equivalent to that of confined concrete with natural aggregates.

In this study, the thermal conductivity, physical and mechanical properties of lightweight aggregate concretes with hollow micro sphere(HMS) are experimentally examined as a basic research for the development of structural insulation concrete. As the results of this experiment, in the case of concrete mixed with HMS, the value of slump has been reduced, so it is found that the dosage of superplasticizer should be increased. As the replacement ratio of HMS increases, it has shown that the compressive strength is somewhat decreased due to the low interfacial adhesion strength of HMS. But the thermal conductivity is found to be greatly improved with the replacement ratio of HMS increases, the thermal conductivity of HMS shows the lower value of 68% at lightweight aggregate concrete and 32% of normal concrete. Also it is found that the compressive strength is decreased and thermal conductivity is increased as the water-cement ratio increases. The most outstanding for insulation performance is observed when using 20% of HMS and 50% of water-cement ratio.

최근 국내에서 해양 구조물, 장대 교량의 하부구조물, LNG저장탱크 등 매스콘크리트의 증가추세에 따라 구조물의 고내구성과 관련하여 시멘트의수화열에 의한 온도균열의 발생을 최소화 시킬 수 있는 3성분계 혼합형 저발열시멘트가 개발되어 실 구조물의 적용단계에 있으나, 저발열시멘트가 개발되어 실 구조물의 적용단계에 있으나 저발열시멘트의 특성에 대한 전반적인 연구보고가 국내에서는 미진한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 3성분계 혼합형 저발열시멘트의 특성 및 코\ulcorner리트의기초물성을 1종 보통포틀랜트 시멘트, 5종 내황산염시멘트, 슬래그시멘트와 비교하였다. 글 결과 저발열 콘크리트의 찹축강도는 초기재령에서 강도발현률이 적은 반면 장기강도발현률은 상당히 큰 경향을 보였다. 또한 수화열은 1종시멘트를 사용한 콘크리트에 비하여 1/3~1/2정도로 매스콘크리트의 수화열을 대폭적으로 저감시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 염소이온에 대한 저항성이 상대적으로 높게 나타나 거대 해양 구조물의 적용에 매우 유리한 시멘트로 판단되었다.

Recently, Fiber Reinforced Polymers(FRP) has been emerged as an alternative material to solve the corrosion of steel reinforcement in reinforced concrete structures. FRP exhibits higher specific strength and lower weight compared to steel reinforcement. Moreover, good resistance to corrosion of the FRP may be useful in aggressive environments causing deterioration such as chloride environment. However, causes for higher initial cost of FRP than that of steel, little information on the long-term behavior of FRP, and brittle failure make the efforts to apply FRP in civil structures slow. Glass fiber among the fibers used to manufacture FRP can be seen as the most beneficial material with regard to initial costs. But its low elastic modulus, which attains barely a quarter of steel, nay thus lead to excessive deflections when used as reinforcement for flexural members. This research was carried out on the tensile properties of hybrid rods made with glass and carbon fibers to improve those of FRP rod made with glass fiber. Parameters were resin type and the arrangement of glass and carbon fibers. The tensile properties of hybrid rods were compared with those of rods manufactured with only glass or carbon fibers. The results indicated that the tensile properties of hybrid rod were good when the carbon fiber was arranged in the core.

Although Korea is a top market sharing and world leading producer and developer of flat panel display devices, relevant recycling technology is not up to her prestigious status. Besides, most of the waste glass arising from flat panel displays is currently land-filled. The present paper mainly reviews on development of recycling systems for waste TFT-LCD glass from end-of-life LCD TVs and monitors and TFT-LCD process waste of crushed glass particles with target end uses of raw material for high strength concrete pile and glass fibers, respectively. Waste LCD glass was recycled to fabricate ingredients for high strength concrete piles with enhanced physical properties and spherical foam products. The waste LCD glass recycling technology is already developed to fabricate long and short fibers at commercial level. In view of these, future R & D on waste LCD glass materials is to be directed toward implementation of commercial materials recycling system therefrom.

In this study, The development characteristic of Modulus of Elasticity required to considering large deflection due to early the removal of forms for the reduction of working period of concrete is investigated. As a result of this study, it is found that the high early strength concrete is advantageous to compare with plain concrete on the early deflection.

12 concrete blocks, on which hybrid fibrous sheets (carbon fiber and glass fiber) had been bonded, were subjected to tensile load in order to estimate properties of the bonded interface. the sheet length was varied by 100mm, 200mm and 400mm. It was found that more than 150mm bond length is required to achieve the maximum bearing capacity of the interface. In this study, maximum bond stress $\tau_{F,max}$, ultimate slip $S_{FU}$ of the interface were estimated $\tau_{F,max}$=3.0MPa and $S_{FU}$= 0.175mm, respectively.

Experiment on flexural analysis of RC beams strengthened with composite material panel is presented. Recently, the strengthening of reinforced concrete structures using advanced fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) composites, and in particular the behavior of FRP-reinforced concrete structure is topic that has become very popular because of good corrosion resistance and easy for site handling due to their light weight. In this study, an efficient computational analysis using ABAQUS to predict the ultimate moment capacity of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with FRP is presented. Test parameters in this study are the shape of fiber arrangement (LT, DB, DBT) and the number of carbon fiber sheets (2ply, 3ply). When comparing with results of the analytical model, results of the experiments show similar values. Furthermore, reinforced concrete beam with FRP obtains improved effects for ultimate strength.

Increase of traffic volume in recent years results in deterioration of the bridge slab, which is directly subjected ot vehicle loads. Where extensive repair is necessary, replacement or enhancement of load carrying capacity using full depth precast concrete deck is often the most practical solution. Precast deck system has transverse joints between adjacent precast decks. Vertical shear forces occur when a vehicle wheel load is carried by precast decks and the joints are used to transfer the load to an adjacent deck. Effective load transfer between precast decks is critical for integral behavior. Finite element analysis and tests were run on the proposed femal-to-female type joint. 18 joint specimens were tested to investigate the effects of angle. D/H, and confining stress under static load. Results indicate joint with angle of 60$^{\circ}$ and D/H of 1/4 shows the improved load carrying capacity on crack. It is effective in protecting the cracking of joints to keep the joint in compression using confining stress.

Fiber composite is high anticorrosive, high strength and low weight ratio of strength(1/4 of reinforcing bar) so that strengthens concrete structures without increase of additional weight. But fiber composite has a brittle character which increases to the maximum stress point lineally and is suddenly destroyed. Hybrid fiber composite is developed to overcome weakness of fiber composite. The hybrid fiber composite is manufactured by bar type and consists of 9:1 volume ratio(glass : carbon). In this study the result indicates that it is purposed to find out reinforcing characteristics of hybrid fiber composite fixed with impact anchor.
