This study is performed to evalute experimentally the nondestructive properties on the concrete that is treated with crushed oyster shell powder of 0.15m or smaller in diameter. The ultrsonic pulse velocity of crushed oyster shell concrete(COSC) is in the range of 4.110-4.267m/s, and the dynamic modulus of elasticity of COSC range from 288$\times$10$^3$ to 318 $\times$10$^3$kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The ultrasonic pulse velocity and dynamic modulus of elasticity are similar to those of normal portland cement concrete. The highest ultrasonic pulse velocity and dynamic modulus of COSC are measured at the 2.5% addition rate by weight of crushed oyster shell powder. The acid-resistance in increased of the content of crushed oyster shell powder. The acid-resistance of COSC with 15% addition rate by weight of crushed oyster shell power is 1.6 times greater than that of normal portland cement concrete. It is concluded that the addition of crushed oyster shell powder to normal portland cement concrete contributed to improve the nondestructive properties of concrete.

This study is performed to evaluate the physical and meanical properties of oyster shell concrete. The result shows that the unit weights of concrete with oyster shell are less by 15 ~2% than that of the normla cement concrete. The highest strengths are achieved by 2.5% oyster shell concrete , with increased compressive strength by 4% , tensile strength by 6% and bending strength by 7% than that of the normal cement concrete, respectively. The static modulusof elasticity is in the range of 290$\times$10$^3$~314 $\times$10$^3$kgf/㎤ for 2.5~7.0% oyster shell concrete,which has showed about the same compared to that of the normal cement concrete. The Poisson's number of oyster shell concrete is less than that of the normal cement concrete. Accordingly, oyster shell concrete will improve the properties of concrete.

This study is performed to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties and acid-resistance of oyster shell concrete. The result shows that the unit weights of concrete with oyster shell are decreased by 1∼2% than that of the normla cement concrete. The highest strength is achieved by 2.5% oyster shell filled oyster shell concrete, it is increased compressive strength by 4% , tensile strength by 6% and bending strength by7% than that of the normal cement concrete, respectively . The acid-resistanceis increased with increase of the content of oyster shell. It is 1.6 times of the normal cement concrete by 15% oyster shell filled oyster shell concrete. Accordingly, oyster shell concrete will improve the properties of concrete.
