This research is to examine the relationships between viscosity and fluidity according to binders in the super flowing concrete. And this research is described with respect to rheology concept, confined water ratio($\beta_p$) of binders in paste and mortar, also investigated experimentally the relationships between the relative flowing ratio ($\Gamma_m$) and the funneling velocity ratio($R_m$) on the mortar state according to the water binder ratio(W/B) and the dosage of the superplasticizer. From the confined water ratio tests, it is found that $\beta_p$ of the class C fly ash is higher than that of the class F fly and limestone in paste and mortar, therefore class F fly ash and limestone and super flowing concrete. The result of test, the optimum mix condition to the compactibility if satisfied when the replacement ratio is 30% and $K_p$ is 0.8 for the case of fly ash and limestone.

In this paper, we described the basic elements(flowabiligy, fillingability, elapsed time, pumpability, no-vibrating effects, and etc.) required for the application and quality control of the super flowing concrete(SFC) in Top Down site. Also, manufactured sand and fly ash were used for investigating characteristics of SFC through various experiments(mix design, optimum mix condition) before placing the concrete in site. As a result of this project, the developed SFC shown high flowability and self-fillingability in the joint good enough for the requirement. Futhermore, inner uniformity of the no-vibrated concrete was verified by testing reformed space. Therefore, quality control and compressive strength(360kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$) can be secured by using SFC even without vibrating.

In this study, the properties of super flowing cocrete containing gly ash were experimentally investigated and compared with those of ordinary concrete. Tests were carried out on five types of super flowing concrete mixes containing fly ash and three types of ordinary concrete mixes without fly ash. Flow test, O-funnel test, box test, Ltype thest and slump test were carried out to obtain the properties for the workability of fresh concrete. Compressime strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity. creep and shrinkage test were also obtained as the mechanical properties of hardened concrete. In fresh concrete, it was found that super flowing concrete had excellent workability and flowability compared with ordinary concrete, and the volume ratio of coarse aggregate to concrete volume greatly influenced flowability. Super flowing concrete also had good mechanical properties at both early and late ages with compressive strengths reaching as high as 40 MPa at 28 days. The creep deformation of super flowing concrete investigated were relatively lower than that of ordinary concrete.

This study is the experimental results on the flowing properties of the super flowing concrete (SFC) using limestone (LS), which is to develop the SFC in level of ordinary strength. And this study is described with respect to basic concept, confined water ratio ($\beta_p$) of binder (cement+limestone) in paste, relationship between volume ratio of water-binder (w/b) and addition ratio of superplasticizer in mortar, flowing velocity and funneling time and compressive strength in concrete to replacement ratio of LS. The results of this study is improved to flowing properties in fleshly concrete with increasing replacement ratio of LS. The optimal mixing condition of the SFC using LS in level of ordinary strength is proved W/C 55%, LS 40% and W/C 60%, LS 50%.

This study describes the result for the placement of the super flowing concrete(SFC) in under-pinning-top-slab which is located Inchon subway section 1-10 where, due to heavy reinforcements and limited working space, it was difficult to place concrete. After placing 600㎥, smooth construction and quality control were possible due to the good flow-ability, self-fillingability, and the resistance of segregation of the SFC itself. Furthermore, economical efficiency was obtained through not only the reduction of the works, labors, and site noise but also the efficient construction control. Because of the crack prevention, high strength, and a fine concrete surface, this study could be considered as a momentum to be adopted generally for applying the proposed method to the difficult subway construction area in the near future.

This study dealt with the properties for fly ash of combined heat power plant and application for concrete industry. For this purpose, fly ash of ulsan combined heat power plant was analyzed for physical and chemical properties and tested the properties of the super flowing concrete. As results of fly ash, contents of SiO2 and Al2O3 in the fly ash of Ulsan were less than those of thermal power plant(Boryung), but contents of CaO were ten times as much as those of Boryung. In order to satisfy the properties of the Super Flowing Concrete using class C fly ash, mixing conditions were determined the optimum water-binder(w/b), volume ratio of fine aggregates(Sr) and coarse aggregates(Gv).

This study is the experimental results on the applicability of the super flowing concrete, which is the pre-cast concrete, to various cases. The primary purpose of this study is to verify the demolding strength, the handling strength of the super flowing concrete at various curing conditions, and the site quality control of the DWS (Daewoo Multi-Room Modular Construction System). From the experimental works, required strength and curing cycles are satisfied. Furthermore site quality control details and quality of the pre-cast concrete using the super flowing concrete are obtained. From now on, this study may suggest how to apply the super flowing concrete for common circumstance.

In this paper, the mix design of the super flowing concrete is described with respcet to basic concept, confined water ratio($\beta_p$), volume ratio of water-binder(w/b), volume ratio of fine aggregates($S_r$) and coarse aggregates($G_v$). The primary purposes of this study are to evaluate the effects of cementitious materials(fly ash, slag cement, portland cement), mixing factors ($\beta_p$, w/b, $S_r$, $G_v$)., and to propose the mix design method of the super flowing concrete. As results of this study, confined water ratio($\beta_p$) of cementitious materials is very high (0.99~1.1), and then the ranges of the optimum mixing factors to be satisfied with the super flowing concrete are $S_r$ 47$\ell$ 2%, $G_v$ 52$\ell$ 1%.

Needs for the new technologies and cutting-edge Ultra Flowing Self-Compacting Concrete are emerging as the concrete structures are becoming bigger and more specialized recently. In North America and Europe, SCC, which has high resistance against flow ability and segregation, is being used as concrete material in applications such as precast and prestressed bridges, where reinforcing bars are overcrowdedly placed. In Korea, SCC has been utilized limitedly in building structures but its utilization should be expanded to engineering structures such as bridges. In this study, for the application in precast and prestressed bridges with overlycrowded reinforcing bars, USCC was mixed with admixtures to give a binary system and a ternary system according to the 1st grade rules by JSCE (Japan Society of Civil Engineers). Compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of the resulting USCCs were tested. Elastic modulus were compared with the values suggested in CEB-FIP code and ACI 318-05.
