The purpose of this study was to enhance bond performance between recycled PET (polyethylene telephthalat) fiber and cement composites through hydrophilic treatment using maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene(mPP). The mPP with various concentration of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% to determine effect on bond behavior of recycled PET fiber were applied as experimental variables. Dog bone shaped specimens according to JCI SF-8 was applied to evaluate the bond strength and pullout energy. The results showed increased bond strength and pullout energy as concentration of mPP. Concentration of 15% mPP showed the most effective results while 20% showed reduced performance results. Because 15% mPP ensures perfect coating while 20% makes thick coating area that resulted in crack propagation and consequent separation of PET fiber and coated area during pullout load occurred. Enhancement mechanism of bond performance of recycled PET fiber and cement composites with each concentration of mPP could be conformed through investigation of microstructure of fiber surface.

The purpose of this study is to present the method of utilizing the recycled aggregate that are obtained from waste concrete as the concrete aggregate. We manufactured the recycled aggregate concrete with compressive strength of over 300kgf/㎠ to increase its weaker strength than the normal concrete, and compared the physical features of the recycled aggregate concrete with that of the normal concrete. As a result of the study, the mechanical performances such as compressive and tensile strength were generally reduced as the mixing rate of the recycled aggregate increased; however, it was possible to manufacture the concrete with the compressive strength of 300∼600kgf/㎠ using the adequate mixing material such as unit quantity of cement, compounding water and silicafume. However, a continuous study on long-term durability performance is required to manufacture and utilize the recycled aggregate concrete for the structure.

The recycled aggregates produced from waste concrete by crushing and granularity adjusting processes only can't be used for structural aggregates because they display low density and high abrasion rate by including lots of mortar and cement paste. However, the recycled aggregates include a lot of aggregates for concrete. Using the heavy medium separation method that is one of the specific gravity separation methods, about 45% of the waste concrete could be converted to the recycled aggregates.

Recycled aggregate concrete has lower strength and durability compared to concrete with natural aggregate. Therefore, metakaolin is used to improve the properties of recycled aggregate concrete. Main components of metakaolin are $SiO_2$ and $Al_2O_3$. and specific surface area is 9 times larger than that of ordinary portland cement. Quality of demolished-recycled aggregate(DRA) satisfies the type 1 of KS F 2573, but quality of source-recycled aggregate(SRA) does not satisfy with the type 2 of KS F 2573. When metakaolin was replaced with 20% of cement, compressive strength of concrete with SRA and DRA develops about 40~64% of control concrete. Water absorption ratio was reduced about 2% by replacing 20% metakaolin and it represents low compared to the natural aggregate concrete without metakaolin. In addition, the resistance to freezing and thawing, of concrete with DRA is indicated to remarkably enhanced due to the contribution of metakaolin. However, when metakaolin is replaced with 20% of cement, relative dynamic modulus of elasticity of concrete with SRA was below 60% at 210 freezing and thawing cycles.

The purpose of this study was the development of a recycling process to recover the hydraulic properties of hydration products which account for a large proportion of cementitious powder from concrete waste. This process was performed to recycle cementitious powder as recycle cement. Therefore, after the theoretical consideration of the properties of recycle process of recycled aggregates and cementitious powder, we investigated the hydraulic properties of cementitious powder under various temperature conditions in hardened mortar which was modeled on concrete waste. And we analyzed properties of chemical reactions of recycled cement with admixture materials such as Fly-Ash, Blast Furnace Slag As a result of the experiment, the most effective method to recover hydraulic properties of the cementitious powder from concrete waste was condition of burning at 700℃ for 120 minute. And it is shown that the fluidity of mortar was decreased rapidly when the burning temperature of recycle cement was increased. However, the compressive strength and fluidity were improved significantly when admixture materials such as Fly-Ash or Blast Furnace Slag was added.

Recently, there have been many studies seeking towards the utilization of cementitious powder from concrete waste as recycle cement. However, most of the studies actually have been researches about the reuse of mortar or paste, not concrete waste. In fact, either mortar or paste is quite different from a real concrete waste in terms of age and mixture. Thus the purpose of this study is to examine basic physical properties of recycle cement, manufactured with cementitious powder from concrete waste, and analyze differences in chemical and hydraulic properties of the cement and its tested model. As a result of the chemicai analysis, recycle cement is composed mainly of CaO and SiO2, and that it is even lower in the content of CaO than Portland cement, which is also supported by previous studies. But, Differently from previous studies, plastic working at the temperature of 650 was found an optimal condition under which cementitious powder from concrete waste could restore its hydraulic properties.

Recently, there have been many studies about recycling cementitious powder from concrete waste(hereinafter referred to as waste powder), generated after recycle aggregate production. Previous studies showed that when the heating process of waste powder at $700^{\circ}C,\;Ca(OH)_2$ in paste is dehydrated making possible the restoration of hydraulic properties. Recycled cement with hydraulic properties restored is thought to be re-hydrated through the mechanism of hydration, which is almost similar in Portland cement. This clearly suggests that the hydrate of recycled cement is alkali in type. Like in general concrete, if recycled cement is used as a structural material, resistance performance against carbonation or neutralization by $CaCO_3$ in air probably would be most influential to the life of steel-reinforced concrete structure. Thus the purpose of this study is to make an experimental review on chemical properties of recycled cement, manufactured with concrete waste as base material, and investigate the durability of concrete using recycled cement through evaluating the cement s performance of resistance to carbonation in accordance with its accelerating age. Based on its results, further, the study seeks to provide basic information about ways of utilizing recycled cement.
