This study aims to propose a fundamental report for pozzolan reaction of discarded Bentonite by heat-treatment as concrete mineral admixture. As discarded bentonite is clay mineral to contain a great quantity a lot of $SiO_2$ and $Al_{2}O_{3}$, it is anticipated to reveal pozzolan reaction ability by heat-treatment. To find out pozzolan reaction ability of discarded Bentonite slurry by heat-treatment, the experiment is excuted Phenolphtalein test, setting test, pH test and the analysis by X-ray diffractor. As a result of this study, discarded Bentonite slurry can be utilized as concrete mineral admixture by heat-treatment and especially, pozzolan reaction ability of discarded Bentonite slurry is superior to the situation of 50$0^{\circ}C$~$700^{\circ}C$, 60min.

The purpose of this study is to improve the performance of jet set cement, which mixed with the mineral admixtures such as silica fume, fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag. First, the test of mortar according to the substitute ratio of mineral admixtures were evaluated. And then using it obtained from test results, it was conducted with experiment of mechanical, physical and permeable characteristics of concrete. Laboratory test results showed that concrete substituted for $5\%$ of silica fume didn't have an effect on prominent performance relating to compressive strength. However it was superior to concrete in case of resistance of chloride permeation.

High strength concrete(HSC) using high range water reducing admixture (HRWR) has the defect which severe slump loss occurs according to elapsed time. For using HSC without any trouble, special caution and countermeasure against this problem are necessary. In this study, for minimizing the slump loss of HSC, mineral admixture( flyash, ground granulated blast furnace slag ) and gypsum were used experimentally. Flyash and ground granulated blast furnace slag are effective in reducing the slump loss of HSC. Especially, the slump loss of HSC containing mineral admixture and gypsum Is minimized by the aggregation inhibiting action of gypsum. Cement substituted with flyash 30% or ground granulated blast furnace slag 50% by weight are very effective in minimizing the slump loss.

In this study, the experiment was carried out to investigate and analyze the strenth properties and flowability of ultra-high strength concrete accroding to types of mineral admixtures. The main experimental variables were water/binder ratio 25.0, 27.5 and 30.0$\%$, water content 155, 160, 165, and 170kg/$m^{3}$ and mineral admixtures such as fly ash, silica fume and meta kaolin. According to the test results, the principle conclusions are summarized as follows. 1) In case of using admixtures, superplasticizer amount need more than plain concrete. 2) According to kinds of admixtures, the viscosity of concrete show much difference. 3) The compressive strength of concrete that use admixtures becomes low in early-age strength, but appeared by higher than plain concrete in long-term strength. 4) Meta kaolin is excellent in side but has viscosity enlargement efficiency a little. But, problem estimates that is not to make design strength 600 and 700kgf/$cm^{2}$ if use mixing condition with water-binder ratio properly.

In this study, it is investigated the properties of high strength concrete using mineral admixture, on the purpose of use of meta kaolin for the substitutive materials to silica fume which is so expensive. The plain mixtures are 3 degrees which are ordinary portland cement, blast furnace slag cement and OPC included fly ash 20%, and silica fume and meta kaolin are substituted for the each plain mixtures in the range of 20%. The results of experiment showed as follows. In case of silica fume was only used, the viscosity and slump flow of fresh concrete were much decreased, on the contrary air content increased. But as usage of meta kaolin increased, to being increase the viscosity of fresh concrete, slump flow increased and air content and usage of super-plasticizer were decreased. Accordingly the workabilities of concrete were against tendency between silica fume and meta kaolin. The compressive strength, velocity of ultrasonic pulse and unit weight were increased according to usage of meta kaolin, the properties of hardened concrete were judged that they are affected with air content of fresh concrete, so it is very important to control air content of high strength concrete. Therefore, the use of meta kaolin is prospected to the substitutive material of silica fume, in case of using silica fume and meta kaolin, it is judged that the optimum usage of silica fume and meta kaolin is about 10% respectively, considering workability and strength of concrete.

Fluidity retention of concrete used high range water reducing AE agent(HWAE) is varied according to main component, dosage amount and dosing method of HWAE. The type and substitution ratio of mineral admixture also have influence on the fluidity retention of concrete used HWAE. In this study, for the purpose of improving the fluidity retention in concrete used HWAE. 3 types of HWAE and ground granulated blast furnace slag(SG) are used in cement paste, mortar and concrete varing dosage amount and dosing time of HWAE and substitution ratio of SG respectively. According to using the HWAE of naphthalene sulfonates and SG, the fluidity retention of mortar and concrete is improved remarkably. And after 30 min, dosing method of HWAE is very effective in improving the fluidity retension and strength of concrete regardless of type of HWAE.

The purpose of this experimental research is to estimate compressive strength and resistance to freezing and thawing of recycled aggregate concrete containing ground granulated blast furnace slag. For this purpose, concrete specimens according to substitution ratio of recycled aggregate were made for different replacement ratio of ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBFS), and then compressive strength and resistance to freezing and thawing were evaluated for those. It was observed from the test results that compressive strength at 28 days of recycled aggregate concrete containing GGBFS of 20% was much more excellent than plain concrete and when air content of concrete was maintained 4 to 6%, influence of substitution ratio of recycled aggregate and replacement ratio of GGBFS on resistance to freezing and thawing was little up to 300 cycles of freezing and thawing.

Recently, production cost of ready mixed concrete(remicon) has been increased due to the rising cost of raw materials such as cement and aggregate etc. cause by the upturn of oil price and increase of shipping charge. The delivery cost of remicon companies, however, has been decreased owing to their excessive competition in sale. Consequently, remicon companies began to manufacture the concrete by mixing ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBF) in order to lower the production cost. Therefore, the objective of this study was to predict 28-day strength of GGBF slag concrete by early strength(1 day-strength, 7 day-strength) for the sake of managing with ease the quality of remicon. In experimental results, the prediction equation for 28 day-strength of GGBF slag concrete could be produced through the linear regression analysis of early strength and 28 day-strength. In order to acquire the reliability, all mixture were repeated as 3 times and each mixture order was carried out by random sampling. The prediction equation for 28 day-strength of GGBF slag concrete by 1-day strength(hot-water method) won the good reliability.

This research intends to analyze the basic characteristics of cements(hereinafter "CC") with affordable price and particle distribution effective as hydration heat face which are discharged at the outlet of smashing process of ordinary portland cement(hereinafter "OPC") manufacturing process such as fluidity, rigidity, temporary insulation temperature increase amount etc to review the potential of developing "CC" to 3 ingredients low heat cement that substitutes fly ash and blast furnace slag(hereinafter "BS"). As a result of experiment, fluidity tended to decrease with increase in CC substitution rate, and increase with increase in FA+BS substitution rate. Air amount tended to slightly decrease with increase in CC substitution rate, and decrease with increase in FA+BS substitution rate. Condensation characteristics were such that condensation time was delayed with increase in CC and FA+BS substitution rate. As for the temperature rising amount by temporary insulation, peak temperature decreased with increase in CC substitution rate and increase in FA+BS substitution rate in general, and thereafter, temperature tended to decrease slowly. Compressive strength decreased with increase in CC and FA+BS substitution rate, and as aging goes on, long term strength was equivalent to plain or higher. By and large, when FA+BS was substituted to CC, fluidity and air amount tended to decrease, but hydration heat face showed good reduction effects, suggesting possibility of development to 3 ingredients low heat cement.
