Artificial fine aggregates (denoted AFA) were fabricated using spent bleaching clay (denoted SBC) generated from processed vegetable oil and stone sludge (denoted SS) produced from crushed aggregate manufacturing materials for use as functional construction materials. Each raw material was crushed to particle size finer than $150{\mu}m$, and fine spherical pellets of approximately 1 ~ 4 mm in diameter were prepared by a pelletizing process. The physical properties of the AFA were measured with different types of sintering equipment. A new type of vertical furnace that sinters fine aggregates in a fluidized bed at high temperatures was designed and tested. AFA sintered in a rotary kiln at $1125^{\circ}C$ showed a bulk density of $1.5g/cm^3$ and a water absorption of 16%. AFA sintered in the vertical furnace at $1125^{\circ}C$ showed a bulk density of $1.9g/cm^3$ and water absorption of 8.5%. The bulk density of the AFA sintered in the vertical furnace showed a bulk density 27% higher and water absorption 47% lower than those of AFA sintered in the rotary kiln.

In the present study an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used to predict the compressive strength of self-compacting concrete. The data developed experimentally for self-compacting concrete and the data sets of a total of 99 concrete samples were used in this work. ANN's are considered as nonlinear statistical data modeling tools where complex relationships between inputs and outputs are modeled or patterns are found. In the present ANN model, eight input parameters are used to predict the compressive strength of self-compacting of concrete. These include varying amounts of cement, coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, fly ash, fiber, water, super plasticizer (SP), viscosity modifying admixture (VMA) while the single output parameter is the compressive strength of concrete. The importance of different input parameters for predicting the strengths at various ages using neural network was discussed in the study. There is a perfect correlation between the experimental and prediction of the compressive strength of SCC based on ANN with very low root mean square errors. Also, the efficiency of ANN model is better compared to the multivariable regression analysis (MRA). Hence it can be concluded that the ANN model has more potential compared to MRA model in developing an optimum mix proportion for predicting the compressive strength of concrete without much loss of material and time.

지구온난화 현상으로 인해 환경 문제가 심각하며, 또한, 시멘트의 원료인 석회석과 골재의 무분별한 채취로 인한 환경파괴와 자원고갈의 심각성이 강조되고 있는 상황에서 문제점을 줄이려는 노력이 지속되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 천연골재 대체재인 폐자기를 혼합하여 적용시켰다. 또한, 시멘트 대체재로써 마그네시아 인산염 복합체와 플라이애시를 혼입하여 그에 따른 인조석재의 특성을 알아보고자 한다. 실험결과, 폐유리 혼합비율 60% 및 폐자기 혼합비율 70%가 인조석재의 전반적인 실험에서 가장 우수한 것으로 판단되며, 인조석재의 기초적인 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

An experimental program was conducted to investigate the fresh properties, mechanical properties and durability characteristics of the self-compacting mortars (SCM) produced with pumice powder and Artificial Lightweight Fine Aggregate (aLWFA). aLWFA was produced by using fly ash. A total of 16 different mixtures were designed with a constant water-binder ratio of 0.37, in which natural sands were partially replaced with aLWFA and pumice powder at different volume fractions of 5%, 10% and 15%. The artificial lightweight aggregates used in this study were manufactured through cold bonding pelletisation of 90% of class-F fly ash and 10% of Portland cement in a tilted pan with an ambient temperature and moisture content. Flowability tests were conducted on the fresh mortar mixtures beforehand, to determine the self-compacting characteristics on the basis of EFNARC. To determine the conformity of the fresh mortar characteristics with the standards, mini-slump and mini-V-funnel tests were carried out. Hardened state tests were conducted after 7, 28 and 56 days to determine the flexural strength and axial compressive strength respectively. Durability, sorptivity, permeability and density tests were conducted at the end of 28 days of curing time. The test results showed that the pumice powder replacement improved both the fresh state and the hardened state characteristics of the mortar and the optimum mixture ratio was determined as 15%, considering other studies in the literature. In the aLWFA mixtures used, the mechanical and durability characteristics of the modified compositions were very close to the control mixture. It is concluded in this study that mixtures with pumice powder replacement eliminated the negative effects of the aLWFA in the mortars and made a positive contribution.

본 연구는 국내에서 최초로 개발된 폐유리로 제조된 인공경량골재 (artifical lightweight aggregate: ALA)의 물리적 특성에 관한 연구를 통해 경량 모르타르 및 경량 콘크리트의 개발에 기초자료로 활용하기 위해 인공경량골재의 입도에 따른 3종류 (La, Lb, Lc)의 모르타르에 대하여 압축강도 실험, 단위질량 및 모르타르의 흡수율 실험을 실시하였다. 이상의 실험 결과, ALA의 밀도 및 단위질량은 내부의 독립기공구조로 인하여 보통골재의 50% 이하의 값을 나타냈으며, ALA를 사용한 모르타르의 흡수율시험 결과 Control 모르타르와 큰 차이가 없었다. 이는 ALA의 내부의 독립기공구조에 의한 것으로 판단된다. ALA를 사용한 모르타르의 경우 혼입률이 증가 할수록 압축강도와 휨강도는 감소하는 경향이 나타났으나, La50 모르타르를 제외한 모든 모르타르는 Control 모르타르 압축강도의 70% 이상을 나타내었다. 향후 광물질 혼화재, 물-시멘트비 의 조절에 따라 Control 모르타르와 동등한 강도가 발현 될 것이라 판단되며, 장기 내구성에 대한 검토도 함께 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

순환골재가 복토 및 성토용으로 활용되는 경우 순환골재 표면의 미수화 시멘트로부터 발생하는 높은 pH의 침출수는 환경에 큰 영향을 주는 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 높은 pH의 침출수를 방지하기 위해 순환골재의 효율적인 알칼리 제거 방안에 대해 실험적으로 비교분석 하였다. 실험결과 순환골재의 높은 알칼리성을 감소시키기 위해서는 단순 야적 및 물을 이용한 씻기 방법보다는 비료를 사용한 처리방법이 가장 유리한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 비료의 종류인 인산암모늄과 이인산암모늄을 활용하여 순환골재를 중화시켰고 그 결과 약 3주 만에 pH 8의 중성에 가까운 순환잔골재를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 순환골재를 토공사용으로 사용할 때에 보다 환경에 안전한 지속가능한 재료로서 활용하는 데에 기여할 것으로 예상한다.

Annually, Taiwan generates approximately 2 million tons of inorganic wastes in the form of sludge, fly ash and slug. To increase the added value of waste and maintain the increasingly insufficient supply of natural gravel, large public construction projects account for this large demand each year. future architectural trends are leading towards high-rise buildings. In light of the above, Center for Environmental, Safety and Health Technology Development, Industrial Technology Research Institute has developed the technology of manufacturing cold-bonding, sintering and bloating types of lightweight aggregates with a specific gravity ranging between 0.7~1.7, water absorption rate < 30%. The lightweight aggregate verified by physical property tests can be used as a substitute for the natural aggregate, which generally appears in replacing gravel in concrete, soundproofing and heat insulation materials. Doing so would not only moderate waste disposal problems, but also achieve the goal of resource recovery.

This study was conducted to evaluate durability of high-strength light-weight aggregate concretes which are increasingly demanded recently. Two different artificial light-weight aggregates were used and two levels of high-strength concretes were made using w/c of 33% and 37% for target strength of 500kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. Cylinder specimens($\phi$=10cm and h=20cm) were made and treated with freezing-and-thawing(F/T) cycle at $-18^{\cire}C$ and $4^{\cire}C$. Dynamic modulus of elasticity and surface condition were evaluated with F/T cycle increase. The results showed that durability of the light-weight aggregate concretes was worse than that of conventional concrete, and the light-weight high-strength concrete with w/c=37% had the better durability than the one with w/c=33%.
