This study is as a part of the new disposal and recycling plans of heat-resource waste of Daegu dyeing, industrial center we tried to examine applicable possibility of crushed thing(waste aggregate) as aggregates for mortar and concrete. To examine applicable possibility of waste aggregate as a lightweight-aggregate for concrete and mortar, we carried this study by mainly property examination of concrete according to replacement ratio of waste aggregate. We carried slump, unit weight, compressive strength and bending strength test according to replacement ratio of waste aggregate. As the result of that, if we use waste aggregate, lightweight of concrete and mortar will be possible. Specially it shows a strength improvement effect of cement hardening according to using this so it is judged that applicable possibility as aggregate for concrete and mortar is very excellent.

The purpose of this study is to prepare the basic data for the development of building board with expanded perlite. Each paste was mixed with four levels of water cement ratio(30, 40, 50, 60%), and expanded perlite was substituted with four levels of substitutive ratio(20, 40, 60, 80%) for the each paste. The physical property, compressive strength, bending strength and thermal conductivity of each cement composite which is made through previously described method were analyzed and the result was as follow. In the case of 80 percent substitutive ratio, the cement composite had a mechanical defect which was resulted from lack of paste content. In the case of 40 and 60percent substitutive ratio, the cement composite had sufficient strength, light weight and low thermal conductivity for application to fire resisting board.

The efficiency of complex slurry preparation route for developing the high performance SiC matrix of $RS-SiC_{f}/SiC$ composites has been investigated. The green bodies for RS-SiC materials prior to the infiltration of molten silicon were prepared with various C/SiC complex slurries, which associated with both the sizes of starting SiC particles and the blending conditions of starting SiC and C particles. The characterization of Rs-SiC materials was examined by means of SEM, EDS and three point bending test. Based on the mechanical property-microstructure correlation, the process optimization is also discussed. The flexural strength of Rs-SiC materials greatly depended on the content of residual Si. The decrease of starting SiC particle size in the C/SiC complex slurry was effective for improving the flexural strength of RS-SiC materials.

Existing wood decks brings out negligent accident because fastener can be pulled-out by cyclic load of pedestrians. When deck and joist are connected, it also causes the problems, which are cracking of wood decks and rapid decay by material of fastener. In this study, strength property of deck unit using reinforced plastic connector made by domestic A company was evaluated. Southern yellow pine (Pinus palustris Miller) were used for deck material. Bending strength of deck units were implemented for fastener type and joist spacing (400, 600 mm). In the result, carbon steel screw into reinforced plastic connector was the best in average bending strength(Joist spacing : 400, 600 mm). In the result of bending strength for joist-width (40, 50, 70, 80 mm), the average maximum bending strength was measured when the joist spacing was 40 mm.

Wood has different properties depending on the species or growth area. Therefore, in order to use wood efficiently, it is necessary to have a proper understanding of the characteristics of wood depending on the species and the appropriate use for them. In particular, in order to effectively use more than 1,000 species of woody plants in South Korea as wood, it is necessary to evaluate the characteristics of various Korean domestic woods and make a database of them. In this study, the anatomical properties (length and width of tracheid, cell wall thickness), physical properties (specific gravity and shrinkage), mechanical properties (bending strength, compressive strength, tensile strength, shear strength, hardness), and chemical composition (ash, extract, lignin, total sugar content) of Korean red pine which was grown in Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do, South Korea were evaluated.

Purpose of this study is to investigate the size-dependent mechanical properties in micron scale medium. Theories such as the couple stress theory and strain gradient theory explain that the deformation in the micron scale is dependent upon the size of the medium. Specimens of the cantilever type, bridge type and paddle type beam that have thickness of 900, 1000 and 1200 nm and width of 10, 20, 30 and $50{\mu}m$ were fabricated by the MEMS technique. We carried out the bending and torsion test to measure the mechanical properties such as the young's modulus, yield strength and torsional rigidity using the AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy).

Osteoporosis is a bone disease associated with reduced bone mineral density resulting in debilitating bone fractures. The present study was carried out to determine the influence of ovariectomy(OVX) on serum level of sex steroid and bone metabolism, as well as bone mechanical property, in OVX subjects in comparison with controls. Body weight and food intake was significantly increased in OVX subjects than in controls. The serum level of estradiol(E2) was significantly lower in OVX subjects than in controls. The serum level of calcium and alkalin phosphatae were significantly increased in OVX subjects than in controls. The bone strength, based on the three point bending test, was not significantly different. Seven weeks after ovariectomy, the cavities in the bone reached 223% of the normal. In conclusion, seven weeks after ovariectomy osteoporo sis was evidently appeared.

The efficiency of thermoelectric devices for different applications is known to depend on the thermoelectric effectiveness of the material which tends to grow with the increase of its chemical homogeneity. Thus an important goal for thermal devices is to obtain chemically homogeneous solid solutions. In this work, the new process with rapid solidification (melt spinning method) followed by hot pressing was investigated to produce homogeneous material. Characteristics of the material were examined with HRD, SEM, EPMA-line scan and bending test. Property variations of the materials were investigated as a function of variables, such as dopant ${CdCl}_{2}$ quantity and hot pressing temperature. Quenched ribbons are very brittle and consist of homogeneous $Bi_2Te_3$, ${Bi}_{2}{Se}_{3}$ solid solutions. When the process parameters were optimized, the maximum figure of merit was 2.038$\times$$10^{-3}K^{-4}. The bending strength of the material hot pressed at 50$0^{\circ}C$ was 8.2 kgf/${mm}^2$.

The structure and properties such as adhesion and corrosion resistance of Cr and $Cr_2O_3$ films, deposited on steel plates by the vacuum evaporation method, were investigated. According to the ESCA and AES analy-sis, it could be concluded that chromium oxide with uniform composition could be formed on the steel sub-strate. The deposited Cr and $Cr_2O_3$ films had high adhesion strength, and they did not peeled off by the tape test. The adhesion property, however, was deteriorated as the film thciknes increased. After bending of the deposited specimen many cracks were observed by SEM, and they were assumed to have propagated along co-lumnar boundaries by the bending test. The corrosion resistance of the films was not generally good, which in-dicates that the films had a porous structure with a large number of defects such as pin holes and voids.

The effect of finger joint location and distance from joint to joint one another on 3 point mid-concentration bending strength properties was investigated in this experiment. Resorcinol-phenol formaldehyde (RPF) and aqueous vinyl urethane (AVU) was used to domestic Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc and imported Picea sitchensis Carr. that have been cut to different width of 0.15 mm between finger tip and root width and the distance from loading point to finger joint was 0, 30, 40, 50, 60 mm. The effect was not found on the location and distance of finger joint for bending modulus of elasticity, while the efficiency of bending strength property increased proportionally as the location of finger joint from the load point and the distance between finger joint increased. No influence was shown by finger joint location and distance beyond 3 times of specimen thickness, since similar values were shown between the solid wood and no destruction occurred materials.
