Traffic volume increases according to highway expansion and industrial development which causes repetitive defect and durability degradation on pavement. The research of quality assurance system used abroad has introduced Korea. Korea Expressway Corporation (KEC) has developed a Quality Performance Index (QPI) that quantitatively assesses the level of quality of the final product, and practical applications. Assessment factor on concrete pavement consisted of pavement thickness, compressive strength, IRI and spacing factor. Assessment factor on concrete pavement is determined by empirical evaluation factor from abroad. In this study, analysis of evaluation factors of concrete pavement by using pavement life prediction simulation and measured data were evaluated with consideration of feasibility of the assessment factor. Pavement life, performance and durability are affected by pavement thickness, compressive strength, IRI and spacing factor in assessment factor on concrete pavement, QPI.

In the course of transportation of ready mixed concrete, it sometimes happens that time of haul from mixing at a batching plant to placing of the concrete at a job site is prolonged too much. When it does happen, improvement in the concrete workability needs to be made by proper measures. It is proposed, therefore, to discuss the quality of concrete modified by time of haul and to search for methods for improvement of the quality by means of adding cement and water or superplasticizer. It was found in this experiment that retempering concrete with superplasticizer is useful in coping with the quality deterioration.

Concrete surface grinding is required for flatness and adhesiveness of concrete surface. The procedure is, however, labor intensive and has a hazardous work condition. Also, the productivity and the quality of concrete surface grinding depend on the levels of worker. Thus, the development of remote controlled concrete surface grinding equipment is necessary to prevent the environmental pollution and to protect the workers from hazardous work condition. However, it is difficult to evaluate the grinded surface objectively in a remote controlled system. The machine vision system developed in this study takes the images of grinded surface with the network camera for image processing. Then, by representing the quality test results to the graphic MMI program of the remote control station, the quality control system is constructed. The machine vision algorithm means the image processing algorithm of grinded concrete surface and this paper presents the objective quality control standard of grinded concrete surface through the application of the suggested algorithm.

Foamed concrete for cast-in-site, which shows excellent lightweight, thermal insulation, noise insulation, constructability and cost efficiency, has been applied as thermal insulation or filling material for On-dol. However, the technology is too insufficient to obtain the high level of quality, and serious problems often occur in quality control at sites. It, thus, is necessary to establish the proper and reasonable quality control method for ensuring the required quality, based on the investigation on the physical properties and their reciprocal relation. This study aims to settle the quality control method in case of applying FA foamed concrete replacing 40% by weight with fly-ash as the filling material for On-dol. The results of the study include the correlation among flow, as-placed density and foam ratio of fresh foamed concrete, the correlation between physical properties before hardening and after 28-day, provision of an equation to estimate 28-day compressive strength early with 7-day compressive strength, and suggestion of quality criteria for the revision of KS on foamed concrete for cast-in-site.

The overall quality of underwater concrete will ultimately be affected by factors such as performance of antiwashout admixture and mix proportions of concrete. Of these, performance of antiwashout admixture may significantly influence quality of underwater concrete. Thus, objectives of this experimental research are to evaluate the performance such as slump flow, setting time, compressive strength, and water segregation of the concrete containing antiwashout admixture. It was observed from the test results that concrete containing antiwashout admixture was found to improve quality of concrete such as fluidity, compressive strength, and antiwashout compared to plain concrete.

This paper evaluated the quality properties of Finex Water Granulated Slag fine aggregate as part of a study to recycle the Finex Water Granulated Slag generated in korea, and examined the availability as fine aggregate for concrete by comparing properties (properties of fresh concrete, mechanical properties of hardened concrete) of concrete using Finex Water Granulated Slag fine aggregate with properties of concrete using river sand as fine aggregate. From the results of this study, it was found that quality properties of concrete using finex water granulated slag as fine aggregate and concrete using river sand as fine aggregate are equivalent level.

Several problems including respiratory and skin disorders due to the problems for sick house syndrome have occurred, there appears echo friendly materials to solve the problems. The research is lacking in quality management techniques ocher concrete using nondestructive tests. In this research, the experimental works were conducted to study the initial quality control for the compressive strength of Ocher concrete(21 MPa). The purpose of this study is the implementation platform for quality management of ocher concrete using nondestructive tests. It uses the relationship between the compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity of the ocher concrete to estimate the compressive strength of the ocher concrete. And using the impact echo method to estimate the thickness of the ocher concrete. The platform is based on a Java script, so that the user can obtain the data through the platform.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) using low quality recycled aggregate with or without washing before usage. The recycled aggregate concrete evaluated in this study contained various amounts of low quality recycled aggregate, viz. 30%, 60% and 100%. To evaluate the performance of the recycled aggregate concrete, various test methods were employed to assess its compressive strength, absorption, surface resistance, ultrasound velocity, chloride ion resistance, etc. The properties of the RAC with 30% and 60% washed recycled aggregate were similar those of the natural aggregate. However, the properties of the RAC with 100% washed recycled aggregate were slightly lower than those of the other versions. Also, the RAC with the non-washed recycled aggregate exhibited lower performance results. The results showed that the RAC with washed recycled aggregate had similar properties to normal concrete (concrete using natural aggregate). This implies that the recycled aggregate should be washed to improve the RCA.

This study is to analyze the effects of aluminum form surface coating material on surface quality of concrete. When observing the surface quality of concrete affected by the change of aluminum form surface coating material, in general, as the number of use of the coating material increased, the surface quality of concrete decreased and good surface quality was shown in plywood (hereinafter PW). For epoxy (hereinafter EP) resin, when applying form remover, good surface quality was shown. For the surface roughness of concrete by the application form oil of form remover and the number of use of the coating material, as the number of use increased, highest surface roughness value was shown which meant the leveling was bad, but the surface roughness value in EP and PW was the lowest. Just for EP, when applying form remover, surface roughness value was low. For the number of void for concrete by the application of form remover and the number of use of the coating material, In general, the number of void which was generated when applying form oil the remover decreased.
