Recently, the public interest in eco-friendly material and structure has been increasing and many Hwang-toh researches are being actively performed. Hwang-toh is one of the traditional environment friendly construction materials used as a construction and plastering material. Hwang-toh has many advantages as construction material due to its high heat storage capacity, auto-purification, antibiotic ability, and infrared ray emission characteristics. But, currently it has not been developed into construction material and used in modern construction due to its low strength and dry shrinkage cracking prone characteristics. According to the recent researches and study results, Hwang-toh can be used as a natural pozzolanic material like fly-ash or pozzolan. In this study, mechanical properties and structural flexure behavior experiments of slag, recycled PET fiber, and Hwang-toh added concrete are carried out. The test results showed that drying shrinkage of concrete mixed with Hwang-toh has lower compressive strength and elastic modulus than those of control cement concrete specimen, but it has the similar flexural behavior in reinforced concrete beams.

Low-carbon eco-friendly precast concrete (PC) box structure has been recently was developed as an low-cost infrastructure of near-surface transit system. The concrete of PC box was manufactured by industrial byproducts such as ground granulated blast furnace (GGBF) slag, flyash and rapid-cooling electric arc furnace (EAF) oxidizing slag, its mechanical property and durability were estimated in this study. Based on the mechanical and durability tests, it is found that low-carbon eco-friendly concrete shows high initial compressive strength, more than 90% of design strength (35MPa), and high resistance to salt-attack, chemical- attack and freeze-thaw. Therefore, low-carbon eco-friendly PC box concrete technology is expected to contribute to the railway with low environmental impact.

전기적, 기계적으로 우수한 성능을 지닌 절연재료인 폴리에틸렌은 장기간 운전 중 열화에 의해 절연성능이 저하되고 시간이 지나면서 케이블의 사고 원인을 제공하게 된다. 본 논문에서 전력용 케이블의 절연체로 널리 사용되고 있는 가교폴리에틸렌(XLPE)를 대신하여 최근 주목을 받고있는 친환경 특성을 부여하기 위한 비가교 폴리에틸렌 재료에 대한 기초적 물성(워터트리성장특성, AC 절연파괴특성, 전도전류 특성)을 실험적으로 비교분석하였다.

전기로 산화 슬래그 골재는 철강산업의 부산물을 재활용한다는 측면에서 친환경적일 뿐만 아니라 고갈되고 있는 골재자원을 대체할 수 있다는 측면에서 중요한 가치를 지닌다. 본 연구에서는 다량의 철성분을 함유하고 있어 높은 밀도를 나타내는 전기로 산화슬래그 골재를 사용한 친환경 콘크리트의 횡구속 성능에 관하여 검토하였다. 이 실험에서는 전기로 산화슬래그 굵은 골재 및 잔골재를 적용한 콘크리트 공시체를 제작하여 천연 굵은 골재와 잔골재를 적용한 콘크리트의 횡구속 거동을 파악하였다. 실험변수는 콘크리트 제작에 사용한 골재의 종류, 횡보강에 사용한 나선 철근의 항복강도로 하였다. 실험결과 전기로 산화슬래그 골재를 사용하였을 경우 천연골재를 사용한 실험체와 유사한 횡구속 효과를 보였다.

Unlike the concrete structure built on land, that exposed to the marine environment is greatly degraded in durability due to the exposure to not only the physical action caused by sea wind, tide, and wave, but also the harsh conditions, including the chemical erosion and freeze-thaw which result from $SO_4{^{2-}}$, $Cl^-$ and $Mg^{2+}$ ions in seawater. In the process of the large scaled construction of submerged concrete structures, of course environmental hazardous substance, such as alkaline (pH) and heavy metals, may be leached. Thus, this issue needs to be adequately reviewed and studied. Therefore, this study attempted to develop a CSA (Calcium Sulfo Aluminate) activator using electric arc furnace reducing slags, as well as the eco-friendly concrete for artificial reefs using electric arc furnace oxidizing slag as aggregate for concrete. The strength properties of the eco-friendly concrete exposed to the marine environment were lower than those of the normal concrete by curing 28 days. This suggest that additional studies are needed to improve the early strength of the eco-friendly concrete. With respect to seawater resistance of the eco-friendly concrete, the average strength loss against 1 year of curing days reached 8-9%. the eco-friendly concrete using high volume of ground granulated blast furnace slags and high specific gravity of electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag demonstrated the sufficient usability as a freeze-thaw resistant material. With respect to heavy metal leaching properties of the eco-friendly concrete, heavy metal substances were immobilized by chemical bonding in the curing process through the hydration of concrete. Thus, heavy metal substances were neither identified at or below environmental hazard criteria nor detected, suggesting that the eco-friendly concrete is safe in terms of leaching of hazardous substances.

This research aims to make a contribution to the development of waterproofing technique for rooftops by analyzing and understanding the problems of the currently used waterproofing method and their causes. To do this, this research developed an eco-friendly waterproofing method that supplements the weaknesses of the conventionally used method by analyzing the problems of leakage resulting from design and construction work to diminish leakage, improving the quality of construction work, reducing labor required and the period of construction, and improving environment alconditions. The characteristics of the newly developed method are comparatively analyzed with the convention alpractices, and are evaluated on the site.

The steel industry, a representative industry that significantly consumes raw materials and energy, produces steel as well as a large amount of by-product steel slag through the production process. The vast habitat foundation of marine life has been destroyed due to recent reckless marine development and environment pollution, resulting in intensification of the decline of marine resources, and a solution to this issue is imperative. In order to propose a method to recycle large amounts of by-product slag into a material that can serve as an alternative to natural aggregate, the engineering properties and applicability for each mixing factor of environment friendly porous concrete as a material for the composition of marine ranches were evaluated in this study. The test results for percentage of voids per mixing ratio revealed that the margin of error for all conditions was within 2.5%. The compressive strength test results showed that the most outstanding environmental friendly porous concrete can be manufactured when mixing 30% slag aggregate and 10% specially treated granular fertilizer for the optimum volume fraction. As concrete for marine applications, the best seawater resistance was obtained with mixing conditions for high compression strength. An assessment of the ability to provide a marine life habitat foundation of environmentally friendly porous concrete showed that a greater percentage of voids facilitated implantation and inhabitation of marine life, and the mixing of specially treated granular fertilizer led to active initial implantation and activation of inhabitation. The evaluation of harmfulness to marine life depending on the mixture of slag aggregate and specially treated granular fertilizer revealed that the stability of fish is secured.
