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.

Whereas commonly used to make concrete having rich water contents as binder or mineral admixture, blast furnace slag has been rarely applied to manufacture in concrete based products having poor water contents. This study, for the multi-recycling of blast furnace slag, is to analyze strength enhancement mechanism of concrete based products using blast furnace slag. The results of this study are following. We found that blast furnace slag is very effective mineral admixture to manufacture high strength spacer having over $400kgf/cm^2$ in compressive strength. Also, enhancement of strength by blast-furnace slag are responsible to densified grading and pozzolanic reaction.

The objective of this study is aimed at developing a new class of polymer concrete, in which hydration of cement and curing of a thermosetting resin can take place simultaneously during the mixing of concrete components. For the selected mix-proportion of the new polymer, the physical and mechanical properties needed for designs are presented. These important properties are compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength, direct strength, fatigue characteristics and fracture parameters. The observed properties are always compared with conventional concrete to serve as reference for engineer in deciding or selecting the proper materials for their projects, and shore protecting structure.

The concrete is relatively fireproof materials. However, long-term exposure to high temperatures in the concrete strength is a phenomenon that occurs in the rapid degradation. In such a case, even low-strength estimates concrete expression to the General Non-destructive inspection is not appropriate to use the estimate. To overcome this problem, various mix conditions of the concrete specimen under 23, 200, 400, 600, $800^{\circ}C$ to a temperature, the correlation relationship between the ultrasonic velocity and the strength of concrete specimen is investigated and analyzed. This analysis estimates the high-temperature strength of the damaged concrete expression Non-destructive inspection of the proposal.

In this study, recycled aggregate and natural aggregate were mixed in advance using an aggregate mixing facility that was developed to improve the quality of recycled aggregate concrete. Then the mixed aggregate was applied and concrete characteristics before and after a mix were considered. Based on the findings extracted, this study aimed to suggest a new direction for quality stabilization and application activation of recycled aggregate. The test results of change rates of mortars and coarse aggregates in fresh concrete mixed by a concrete mixer, before and after mixing aggregates showed that the variations of the mortars and coarse aggregates in the concrete mixed with the aggregates beforehand were decreased than those in the concrete before mixing them. The variation of compressive strength and the mean compressive strength at the ages of 3 and 7 days showed similar results before and after the aggregates were mixed, and the strength at the age of 28 days before and after mixing them showed larger deviation than that at the ages of 3 and 7 days. The use of the mixed aggregates after mixing aggregates beforehand reduced the variation in strength and is believed that it is advantageous for long-age strength development. The above results show that the variations of coarse aggregates and compressive strength in the concrete using the mixed aggregates produced by mixing recycled aggregates and natural aggregates beforehand are reduced so it will be possible to produce the homogeneous concrete by mixing aggregates beforehand.

This research explores the potential application of Liquid Red Mud(LRM), a byproduct of industrial processes, in the construction sector. We neutralized LRM(pH 10-12) using nitric acid, aiming to understand its viability in construction applications. The study involved substituting LRM(pH 7-8) in mortar formulations, varying by cement type. We assessed the properties of these mixtures by measuring flow, setting time, and compressive strength. Additionally, X-ray Diffraction(XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) analyses were conducted to examine the chemical properties. Results indicated a reduction in flow value for LRM and LN(neutralized LRM) compared to the control (Plain ) across different cement types. The setting times(initial and final) for LRM and LN were notably shorter than Plain. In compressive strength tests, LRM replaced with slag cement showed enhanced initial strength, though long-term strength gains were marginal across different cement types. SEM analysis revealed distinct voids in Plain and LN, with LRM exhibiting a fibrous microstructure. XRD patterns in SN(slag neutralized) resembled those in OR(original red mud) and ON(original neutralized), with a notable peak at a 2θ value of 22°. The study concludes that unneutralized LRM, when substituted for slag cement in mortar, yields superior initial strength compared to its neutralized counterpart.

Long term performance of concrete pavement significantly depends on the given construction and environmental condition. It means that random cracks and extreme crack width due to inappropriate quality control at the early age might lead to decreasing the pavement service life. The temperature and moisture during the construction, cement and aggregate types, curing condition are major components to affect the quality of the concrete pavement at the early age. First of all, the high temperature differential, that is made by increasing air temperature and the heat of cement hydration, is known as the major contributor to severe cracks. In this study, tent covering was used for controlling temperature of the concrete slab. The field measurement data indicates that the effect of the tent covering is very significant to decrease possibilities of random crack occurrence and curling stress and enhance the long-term concrete strength. HIPERPAV(High PERformance PAVing software), a program predicting the strength and stress of an earty-age concrete pavement (72 hour after placement), is used for simulating the effects of tent covering. The HIPERPAVE results showed that the section with the tent covering has higher reliability than the section without the tent covering by 22.5%. In details, reliability is increased 72.5% (without the tent covering) to 95% (with the tent covering).

In recent years, the geotextile tubes filled with dredged material have been used in dike and breakwater construction for a number of projects around the world, and their use in this field is growing very fast. One of the most attractive advantages of geotextile tube technology is can be use the in-situ filling materials by hydraulic pumping, it can be also established lower costs and fast construction than other technology. Geotextiles form one of the two largest groups of geosynthetics and it is commonly made by two major types of polymer material(Polypropylene, Polyester). The objective of this paper is to examine several issues associated with drainage function and feasibility of geotextile tube structure such as filtering efficiency, dewatering efficiency, and filling process with polymer materials. Based on the laboratory filtering test and in-situ tests, polypropylene goetextile is more effective for drainage function of geotextile tube technology.

If stock market is efficient, any well-devised trading rule can't consistently outperform the average stock market returns. This study aims to verify whether the strategy based on bid-ask volume information can beat the stock market. I suggested a day trading strategy using order imbalance indicator and empirically analyzed its profitability with the KOSPI 200 index futures data from 2001 to 2018. Entry rules are as follows: If BSI is over 50%, enter buy order, otherwise enter sell order, assuming that stock price rises after BSI is over 50% and stock price falls after BSI is less than 50%. The empirical results showed that the suggested trading strategy generated very high trading profit, that is, its annual return runs to minimum 71% per annum even after the transaction costs. The profit was generated consistently during 18 years. This study also improved the suggested trading strategy applying the genetic algorithm, which may help the market practitioners who trade the KOSPI 200 index futures.

Recently the ground subsidence which seriously weakens the safety of cities tends to increase. The purpose of this paper is to develop the materials by using industrial by-products for the application to emergency restoration process in case of ground subsidence. In this paper the laboratory tests including pH test, initial setting test, unconfined compressive strength test, and flow test were performed in order to evaluate the design properties of Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM). The field test was carried out for evaluating the performance for the early strength of CLSM and the workability for emergency restoration. Test results showed that the strength will be too high to re-excavate the ground when the cement ratio is more than 4%. The optimum mixing ratio appears to be most effective when the mixing ratio of the bottom ash and the gypsum is approximately 50:50 and the cement content is 2%.
