Recently, the use of high-strength concrete is increasing due to the trend of constructing high-rise and long span structures. The benefit of using the high-strength concrete is that it increases the durability and strength while it reduces the cross-sectional area of the bridge deck slabs. Moreover, it offers more safety as these bridge deck slabs applying high-strength requires strict structural performance verification. In this study, the fatigue performance of the bridge deck slabs applying 80 MPa high-strength concrete was verified through various experiments. The experimental results showed that the specimens satisfy the conditions of flexural strength, punching shear strength, deflection and cracking. In conclusion, the bridge deck slabs designed by 80 MPa high-strength concrete are enough safe despite of its low thickness.

Recently, efforts are made to apply 200MPa levels of ultra-high strength concrete to structures exceeding 40MPa.. Ultra-high strength concrete has been steadily researched in Korea as well as abroad, and now it is equipped with 200MPa ultra-high strength concrete mixing technology. Because ultra-high strength concrete has a higher range of compressive strength than ordinary concrete, it is difficult to accurately measure the compressive strength of UHPC concrete with existing compressive strength measuring equipment and can be less reliable. In this study, the compressive strength of the SC80 was measured according to the test method to compare the compressive strength of the SC80 by applying various methods of measurement of compressive strength. The compressive strength test method measured the compressive strength according to the size of the specimen, the grinding method, and the capacity of the UTM equipment.

This study is to performed to find the optimum mix proportion of the high strength and self compacting concrete for the above-ground LNG storage tank construction and field application. If LNG storage tank wall thicknesscan be reduced, the construction cost and quality can be improved by using self-compacting high strength concrete with compressive strength 60~80 MPa. For this purpose, low heat cement (Type IV) and class F fly ash are used in concrete mix to control hydration heat, flowability, and viscosity. Mix design variables of unit water, fly ash replacement ratio, water-binder ratio, and fine aggregate ratio are selected and tested for material properties and manufacturing cost of the concrete. Also, fly ash replacement ratio is considered using confined water ratio test. The test results showed that the optimum mix proportion of the self-compacting high strength concrete characteristics are as follows. 1) In case of the concrete with specified compressive strength of 60 MPa, the optimum mix proportion is fly ash replacement ratio of 20% and water- binder ratio of 27~30%. 2) In case of the concrete with the strength of 80 MPa, the optimum mix proportion is fly ash replacement ratio of 10% and water-binder ratio 25%. But unit water and fine aggregate ratio are 165 $kg/m^3$ and $51{\pm}2%$, respectively, regardless of the traget concrete compressive strength range. Also, test results showed that concrete manufacturing cost of 60 MPa and 80 MPa concrete require additional costs of 14~22% and 33%, respectively, compared to the manufacturing cost of 40 MPa concrete. Therefore, application of the self-compacting high strength concrete has proven to be economical in the perspective of the material cost, quality control, and site management.

In the production of high-strength concrete of 80 MPa or more, silica fume is widely used as a binder to ensure the strength safety and pumpability of concrete. The bulk density of silica fume is an important physical property that can have a significant impact on the performance of concrete. Therefore, Understanding the effect of silica fume density on the physical properties of concrete and selecting the appropriate material with the correct density is crucial to ensuring optimal performance in construction projects.

In this study, the fire resistance test was carried out with a parameter such as fiber(PP+NY) mixed ratio on high strength concrete with 80MPa, and the spalling resistance property was evaluated. Concrete material test was carried out with a parameter such as fiber(PP+NY) mixed ratio(0%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%) of high strength concrete with 80MPa. Although the flowability and the strength capacity were delicately decreased with a increase of fiber mixed ratio, they satisfied the target limits. As the spalling resistance property after the fire resistance test of 3 hours, the spalling was partly shown on the high strength concrete with fiber(PP+NY) mixed ratio of 0% but, wasn't shown on the high strength concrete with fiber(PP+NY) mixed ratio of 0.05% ~ 0.2%.

Because of the high-rise and bigger building structure, high strength concrete's demand was increased. However, chemicophysical property of concrete is changed by high temperature. Therefore, this study evaluated on spalling properties of 80MPa high strength concrete with fireproof coating. The result, when complex fireproof coating spread on concrete, it has good fire safety that was thinner than single fireproof coating spread on concrete.

In order to estimate the reduction of laodbearing capacity, followed by the attributive change of heat while high strength concrete structure is revealed on fire it is necessary to evaluate, it is necessary to evaluate the property of material under high temperature such as thermal conductivity, specific heat, compressive strength, modulus of rigidity and diminution figure. Therefore, this study is for the purpose of presenting evaluation data for the analysis of thermal behavior about the high strength concrete material under high temperature, through the experiment by manufacturing concrete(40, 50, 60, 80, 100 MPa) commonly used in the construction field. As a result of the study, in the case of physical attribute, it demonstrates a greater fluctuation of change than the one of 30 MPa concrete. In case of specific heat, the high strength concrete, shown the serious diminution between $500{\sim}600^{\circ}C$, presents the thermal change area corresponding to the change of high strength concrete. In compressive strength, regardless of intensity of concrete, all of them show the first intensity loss between normal temperature and $100^{\circ}C$, the dramatic loss beyond $400^{\circ}C$. The concrete weighing above 50 MPa shows a twice lower dramatic intensity loss than the one weighing $30{\sim}40MPa$. The concrete ranging from $60{\sim}80MPa$, shows the biggest diminution of modulus of elasticity under $400^{\circ}C$, which implies the structural unstability of temperature.

Recently as application of high-strength concrete on concrete structures has been on the rise, use of non-standard specimen is increasing. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of specimen's size effect, ratio of height/diameter and curing conditions on concrete compressive strength. Results of experiments showed that as size of specimen increased as much as 1 mm, standard design compressive strength of 24MPa fell as much as0.15MPa 40MPa fell as much as 0.1MPa 80MPa fell as much as 0.3MPa, and it indicates that as the level of strength is intensified, the decrement of compressive strength increases. As ratio of height/diameter increased as much as 1.0, compressive strength of 24MPa fell as much as 2.9MPa 40MPa fell as much as 3.7MPa 80MPa fell as much as 9.8MPa, and it means that as strength of concrete is higher, influence of ratio of height/diameter becomes bigger.

The purpose of this research is to secure fundamental data on the application of fibre as a fire resistance method for more than 60 MPa high-strength concrete through an examination of mechanical properties and fire resistance performance. The results are as follows: 1) When there are less than 0.5~1.0kg/$m^3$ contents of PP and NY fibre for 60MPa and less high strength concrete, 1.0kg/$m^3$ contents of PP and NY fibre for less than 80MPa high strength concrete and 1.5kg/$m^3$ contents of NY fibre for more than 80MPa high strength concrete, the effect of fibre contents on workability and strength development is not significant. 2) Based on the result of a 3-hour fire resistance test for mock-up column, it is necessary to secure 50 mm of covering depth for the regulation of fire resistance performance of high strength concrete to the standards of The Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs. 3) It is necessary to secure more than 400mm of column size for stable fire resistance performance.
