This study evaluates the bond behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using recycled coarse aggregates. A total of four specimens were cast and tested. The test parameter was the type of coarse aggregates, that is, natural and recycled coarse aggregates, and the absorption ratio of recycled coarse aggregate. The recycled coarse aggregates with absorption ratios of 3% and 6% were used in this test. The specimens were simply supported and were subjected to a concentrated load. A test method proposed by Ichinose was adopted to estimate effectively the bond properties of specimens. From the experimental results, it was found that there was no difference of bond characteristics according to the absorption ratio of recycled coarse aggregates.

This study was conducted to investigate whether water chilling had effect on water retention, freshness or internal temperature of chicken carcasses during chilling or storage in two different chicken processing plants (designated as A and B). A total of 240 carcasses from chicken processing plants (n = 120 per chicken processing plant) was randomly sampled and evaluated the effect of water chilling on carcass characteristics (i.e., water retention, water loss or freshness during chilling or storage). Torrymeter value was used as an indicator of freshness in chicken carcasses. Water chilling did not affect carcass water retention between the processing plants. However, chicken carcasses processing in B plant exhibited significantly higher freshness (p<0.05) compared with those in A plant. This difference in freshness was mainly due to the longer transit time through the water chiller in A versus B plants. Water loss of carcasses during storage was not different between plants. It was found that carcass freshness can be affected by water chilling time as manifested in this study. Further study is warranted to see whether freshness or microbiological status of chicken carcasses may be affected depending on the chilling methods, i.e., air or water chilling.

This study estimates the flexural behavior of reinforced recycled aggregate concrete beams. Three specimens with different types and water absorption of coarse aggregates were constructed and tested. Not only all specimens were designed to be subjected to 4-point concentrated loads, but also the shear span-to-depth ratio of 2.5 was adjusted to all specimens to increase the effect of shear. A nonlinear flexural analysis considering the tension stiffening effect of concrete was performed to predict the moment versus curvature relationships of the specimens. Furthermore, a nonlinear finite element analysis considering the effect of shear was carried out to estimate the behavior of the specimens. It can be found from experimental results that the flexural strength and the crack properties of the specimens with recycled coarse aggregate having a water absorption of 6% were similar to those of the specimen with natural aggregates. The comparison between the experimental and analytical results showed that existing analytical methods can be successfully used to predict the behavior of reinforced recycled aggregate concrete beams.

Artificial accelerated weathering test evaluated rocks from near the circuit road of Ulleungdo island, approximately 120 km from east of the Korean Peninsula. The tests subjected rock specimens to conditions based on the climate of the island. The specimens (such as basaltic breccia, trachyte, volcanic breccia) were preliminarily classified using a TAS diagram (XRF data) and based on the constituent minerals (XRD data); they were further classified by weathering degree according to their absorption ratios. During the artificial accelerated weathering, the absorption ratio of most of the specimens increased, but the point-load strength did not decrease in most cases, except for the volcanic breccia. The greater initial absorption ratio of trachyte rock specimen in comparison with the other specimens led to a greater increase of its absorption ratio during the artificial accelerated weathering test. The volcanic breccia specimens showed the greatest increase of absorption ratio and the biggest reduction ratio of the point- load strength during the tests. These results could aid prediction of the weathering rate of rocks in Ulleungdo island subjected to weathering processes; trachyte which appears to accelerate with time, and volcanic breccia whose mechanical strength can largely decrease in a relative short period of time. Proper measures therefore appear necessary for the prevention of natural disaster such as rock fall and landslide around the circuit road.

This study investigates the material properties of the traditional bricks used in the royal tomb of King Muryeong. Compressive strengths, thermal conductivities, absorptance and the rate of residual moisture are measured by non-destructive experiments. Compressive strength of the traditional bricks is estimated by using the ultrasonic wave velocity and the absorptance. Based on the experimental results, the predicted compressive strengths using the ultrasonic wave velocity are unsuitable for the traditional bricks due to the rough surface and thickness variation of the specimens. The strengths using the absorptance are more suitable than those using the velocity because the predicted average strengths (28.69 MPa ~ 33.19 MPa) are close to building materials like normal strength concrete. In addition, the methods using the absorptance are not influenced by surface and thickness conditions of the specimens. The average thermal conductivities of the bricks measured by using Mathis TCi are close to those of soils (1.58 W/mK). The absorptance and the rate of residual moisture of the bricks are 1.6 % ~ 15 %, 0 % ~ 0.7 %, respectively.

본 硏究는 現在 일상적 있는 재생조골재를 죠오크러져(modified-jaw crusher)를 이 용하여 다시 1-3 파쇄를 행함으로써 재생골재의 품질이 어느정도 개량될 수 있는가를 실험 적으로 구명하여 재생골재의 실용화를 위한 하나의 방법을 제한하고자 하는 것이다. 실험결 과,재화파생 처리를 행하지 않은 경우의 재생근 골재의 흡수율은 5-7%정도이나 재파쇄를 함에 따라 흡수율은 현저하게 낮아져, 3차례의 재파쇄를 행한 경우 흡수율이 2% 이래로 나 타나 재생근골재의 품질을 학보하기 위하여는 재파쇄가 매우 유용한 방법임을 알 수 있었 다. 또한 흡수율의 본포도 처음에는 2개의 범주를 가지고 넓게 산포하게 되나 재파쇄가 진 행될수록 재생근골재중에 부착되어 있던 모르터분이 점차 떨어져 나감에 따라 품질의 산포 가 상당히 낮아지는 결과를 얻었다. 그러나 이와같은 재파쇄에는 많은 실용적 부담이 발생 하게 되므로 골재의 품질과 경제적효율을 고려하여 정적한 재파쇄회수가 결정되어야 할 것 으로 사료 된다.

In this paper, the physical properties of lightweight aggregate such as density and water absorption according to addition ratio and type of flux were investigated. When using $Na_2CO_3$ as flux of lightweight aggregate, burnability was available at low burning temperature and water absorption increased. And as increasing addition ratio of $CaCO_3$, NaOH, $Fe_2O_3$, absorption decreased and $CaCO_3$, NaOH, $Fe_2O_3$ were considered improper to use flux of lightweight aggregate because of high dried density. $Na_2SO_4$ was proper to use flux of lightweight aggregate due to dried density $1.35{\sim}1.50g/cm^3$ and lower absorption. When using glass abrasive sludge as flux of lightweight aggregate, dried density and water absorption were in the range of $1.45{\sim}1.55g/cm^3$ and 9~12% respectively. It was indicated that as increasing addition ratio of blast furnace slag powder, density increased whereas absorption decreased. In use of oxidizing slag as flux, artificial lightweight aggregate which have dried density $1.46g/cm^3$, water absorption 8,5 % can be manufactured at 10 % of addition ratio.

페놀의 작업 노출에 대한 TLV-TWA는 5ppm ($19mg/m^3$)으로 눈과 호흡기계의 자극과 함께 심장, 간, 신경 독성 영향을 최소화하기 위해 설정되었다. 페놀은 증기상과 액상 또는 고체상 형태로 피부에 접촉되면 흡수되어 심각한 계통 영향을 유발하여 최종적으로 사망에 이르게 한다. 피부를 통한 흡수율은 흡입에 의한 체내 흡수율과 거의 동일한 수준이다. 따라서 현재 Skin notation(피부흡수 경고) 물질로 지정되어 있다. 발암성 여부를 결정하기 위한 동물 실험 결과에서는 음성 또는 발암성을 판정하기에는 데이터가 부족한 관계로 A4로 지정되어 있다. 또한 SEN과 TLV-STEL도 유용한 자료의 부족으로 아직 설정되지 않고 있다. 페놀은 BEIs로 활용될 수 있는 기질 중 하나이다.

In order to recycled wast concrete which is occurred from demolition of the old building, it is effective that the recycled aggregate used as structural concrete aggregate. For used recycled aggregate with structural concrete, the structural capacity must be confirmed. This Study investigated bond capacity which follows in difference of absorption of the aggregate between rebar and concrete. Test results show that there are not a difference of bond strength and slip behavior according to absorption ratio of natural and recycled coarse aggregate.
