When GGBFS(Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) with high blaine is incorporated in concrete, compressive strength in the initial period is improved, but several engineering problems arise such as heat of hydration and quality control. In this paper, compressive strength and durability performance of concrete with 3,000 Grade-low fineness slag are evaluated. Three conditions of concrete mixtures are considered considering workability, and the related durability tests are performed. Although the strength of concrete with 3,000 Grade slag is slightly lower than the OPC(Ordinary Portland Cement) concrete at the age of 28 days, but insignificant difference is observed in long-term compressive strength due to latent hydration activity. The durability performances in concrete with low fineness slag show that the resistances to carbonation and freezing/thawing action are slightly higher than those of concrete with high fineness slag, since reduced unit water content is considered in 3,000 Grade slag mixture. For the long-term age, the chloride diffusion coefficient of the 3000-grade slag mixture is reduced to 20% compared to the OPC mixture, and the excellent chloride resistance are evaluated. Compared with concrete with OPC and high fineness GGBFS, concrete with lower fineness GGBFS can keep reasonable workability and durability performance with reduced water content.

Recently, The sludge water of ready mixed concrete has been investigated because of environmental pollution and disposal cost. So, sludge water is partially reused as mixing water. However, if sludge water is reused too much that would influence the qualify of concrete. KS specification limits the amount of sludge content up to 3% of cement weight. In this study, the effect of ready mixed concrete sludge on the characteristics of concrete is compared to raise the reuse ratio of sludge of ready mixed concrete. According to this experiment results, as blending ratio of re-mi-con sludge increases, workability is decreases. However, the sludge of ready mixed concrete water have a positive effect on the strength development. The drying shrinkage and the resistance of freezing and thawing have a minor effect.

The high-density polyurethane method uses the instantaneous expansion pressure of injected material to stabilize soft ground, allowing reinforcement, restoration, and construction to be carried out in suboptimal ground conditions. Under normal and, even poor conditions, the method is easily applied because the working time is very short. The method is environmentally friendly and results have excellent durability. The purpose of this study was to verify the physical and mechanical properties of high-density polyurethane in the ground. Initial testing of strength, direct shear, and soil environment stability was followed by testing for permeability in order to address environmental concerns. The results of the experiments showed that the internal friction angle was about twice as high and the adhesion was about 2.5 to 3.5 times higher than for dense and hard clay, and that the permeability factor was significantly lower compared with the existing grouting method, within the range of 1.0 × 10-5.

용접구조물을 그의 사용목적에 적합하게 제작하려면 그의 구조설계와 사용재료의 적절한 선택과 사용성능을 충분히 확보하게 끔 제작과정과 품질보증을 할 수 있는 것이 필요하다. 즉 용접성 (Weldability)을 만족하게 하는 것이다. 구조물의 제작에 있어서 배려하여야 할 것은 구조의 사 용성능의 확보와 안전성인 것이다. 사용성능이란 구조의 강도, 기능 그리고 미관이나 끝내기의 외관적 성능등이다. 우리들의 생활공간에 존재하는 구조물이 한번 파손이나 파괴의 사고가 발 생하면 치명적인 것이 된다. 용접설계 생산과 제작의 기술적인 준비로써 용접구조물을 대상으로 용접가공에 중점을 두어 사용되는 말이다. 용접설계는 구조물과 제품의 용접제작과정을 완전히 지시하고 용접이음에 요구되는 사용성능이 확보 되게 끔 부재배치와 치수등이 선정되고 제작과 검사등의 실제 작업성을 충분하게 고려한 제작계획을 세우는 것을 말한다. 이와 같이 된 용접 설계를 바탕으로 용접기술자가 최적한 용접재료의 용접조건등을 결정한다. 즉 설계와 용접시공은 서로 밀접한 관계를 갖고 있어야 한다. 특히 용접설계의 비교적 초기단계에 속하는 것은 제품 기본계획과 강도해석 그리고 구조설계의 과정에 반드시 용접기술자의 관여가 필요한 것이다. 그리고 설계의 최적화를 위하여는 많은 정보 특히 경험적인 정보와 구조 해석적인 정보가 잘 처리되어야 한다. 오늘날의 CAD의 도입이란 전산기의 처리기술과 graphic기술을 묘미 있게 이 용한 것이라 할 수 있다. 용접구조물의 용접성을 논술하려면 다음과 같이 구분하는 것이 바람 직하다. 1. 용접구조물의 허용강도 2. 동접구조용의 강의 선택 3. 용접시공조건 4. 용접설계 이중 용접 제작과정을 표 1에 나타내었다. 구조물의 용접설계 요구조건으로써, 1)손상, 2)탄성 파손, 3)항복응력, 4)기계적인 불안정성, 5)파괴와 붕괴등을 고려하여야 하며 구조용 강의 선택은 1. 강도(strength) 2.연성(ductility) 3.인성(toughness)을 고려하여 구조물의 설계에 충분히 만 족해야 한다.

As a part of the movement of natural resources conservation, there have been doing many recycling research works for obsolete aged tire, wasted plastic materials, etc. The purpose of this experimental study is to develop glass concrete by recycling wasted glasses as a cementitious constituent in concrete. First of all, the optimum replacement ratio of powdered waste glasses(PWG) can be determined through pilot compressive strength test on normal and high strength concrete cylinders, which have been made in various mix proportions by changing the replacement ratio of PWG. Then, further tests have been done to figure out mechanical properties of most desirable glass concrete with optimum replacement ratio of PWG, such as static modulus of elasticity, compressive and tensile strengths, flexural strength. On the other hand, the alkali-silica reactions by the mortar-bar method(KS F 2546) have been experimentally doing in various grain sizes of PWG, since the alkali in the cement has a tendency to react with the silica in the PWG. In can be confirmed from the test that glass concrete can have better workability than concrete with silica fume, and they are alike in compressive strength. It is concluded that wasted glasses can be used as pratical additives for economic and environmentally friendly concrete.

This study focused on the investigation of compressive and flexural strengths development, and bond strength of latex modified concrete in order to validate the feasibility of application into concrete bridge deck overlay. Pull-out bond test was used for evaluating the bond strength of latex modified concrete to substrate. The main experimental variables were latex-cement ratio, surface preparation and moisture levels. The compressive strength of latex modified concrete decreased slightly and the flexural strength increased as the latex content increased from 5% to 20%. This might be due to the flexibility latex filled in voids and interconnections of hydrated cement and aggregates by a film of latex particles, respectively. In general, increasing the amount of latex will produce concrete with increased tensile and flexural strength and lower modulus of elasticity. Significant improvements in bond strength between new and existing concrete were achieved through the modification of the new concrete bridge deck overlay by latex polymers. The effect of surface preparation on bond of latex modified concrete to conventional concrete were significant at the conditions by sand paper and wire brush. A better bond could be achieved by rough surface rather than smooth. The saturated condition of surface is the most appropriate moisture level among the considered followed by dry condition and wet condition.

This study is conducted to investigate the effect of phase change materials (PCM) on hydration heat and strength characteristics of cement mortar. Two types of Barium and Strontium-based PCMs were used in this study and the addition ratio of each PCM to the cement mortar ranged from 1% to 5% by cement weight. Flow test, semi-adiabatic temperature rise test, compressive strength and flexural strength test were carried out to examine the PCM effect on heat and mechanical properties of cement mortar. Test results indicated that PCMs used in this study were effective to control hydration heat of cement mortar, and Barium-based PCM slightly reduce flow value. The compressive and flexural strength of cement mortar with PCM decreased with increasing the adding mount of PCM. The prediction model for compressive strength of cement mortar with different addition levels of PCMs are suggested in this study.
