In this study, it was founded to make the optimal mixture for producing concrete which is self-compacting, yet, and generates low heat of hydration by using flyash, blast furnace slags and limestone powders as binders in addition to cement while using super-plasticizers and viscosity agents as admixture agents. The structural behaviors of the concrete produced with the selected mixture were compared with those of the concrete currently using for construction of nuclear power plants. The study shows that the blended high fluidity concrete including limestone is better in workability and durability than the concrete currently in use for nuclear power plants.

In this study, $CO_2$ reduction type quaternary component high fluidity concrete was produced with more than 80% reduction in cement quantity to increase the use of industrial byproducts and enhance construction performance, thereby reducing $CO_2$ emissions. Furthermore, the quality properties, and $CO_2$ reduction performance of this concrete were evaluated. As a result of the quality evaluation of quaternary component blended high fluidity concrete with $CO_2$ reduction, the target performance could be achieved with a 80% or more reduction of cement quantity by mixing a large amount of industrial byproducts. The required performance level was obtained even though the flow, dynamic, and durability characteristics decreased a little compared to conventional mix. In addition, to analyze the $CO_2$ reduction performance of quaternary component blended high fluidity concrete with $CO_2$ reduction, the life cycle assessment (LCA) of the concrete was performed and the results showed that compared to the conventional mix, the carbon emissions decreased by 62.2% and the manufacturing cost by 24.5%.

This study is part of the research for improving the performance of mortar and concrete using blended slag aggregate to develope economical and high quality replacement aggregate. The characteristics of the fluidity and strength of mortar using the blended slag, which replaced the blended slag aggregate by 0, 25, 50, 75, 100% for the aggregate volume, were compared and analyzed.

In case of constructing concrete structure under water, generally concrete mixed with antiwashout admixture, high range water reducer, or AE-water reducing agent etc has been manufactured to ensure the quality of antiwashout underwater concrete because of being difficulty in ascertaining construction situation by the naked eye. The properties of high quality antiwashout underwater concrete that were aimed at affluent fluidity, workability and the compressive strength of 450 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 28 ages using two types of blended cements are following as;(1) Setting time of antiwashout underwater concretes using blended cements was more greatly delayed than that of control concrete, however, was satisfied with criteria value of "Quality standard specification of antiwashout admixture for concrete".(2) As a test results of slump flow, efflux time and box elevation of head, it was found that workability of high quality antiwashout underwater concrete was improved. (3) Heat evolution amount of OPC was 1.5 times as high as that of two types of bended cements in 72 hours. (4) Suspended solids of antiwashout underwater concrete using blended cements was more than that of control concrete, also compressive strength of high quality antiwashout underwater concrete was very low in early age, but was better than that of control concrete as to increasing ages.

High-Flowability Concrete has many advanced properties and been focused on their workability. Because of the difficulty in understanding of the quality of High-Flowablity Concrete just using slump properties, many studies have been carried out rheological properties influenced on concrete fluidity. In this paper, for the purpose of expecting some level of rheological properties, the change of rheological properties of High-Flowability Concrete with dosages and types of superplasticizer, and various addition amounts addictives were investigated.

In this paper, as part of a study for carbon neutrality, the quality properties of quaternary component high-fluidity concrete, which significantly replaced up to 80 % of the cement usage by using three industrial by-products, were evaluated. As a result of the evaluation, even if a large amount of industrial by-products were replaced by more than 80 % of the amount of cement used, it was possible to obtain quality that satisfies the target performance in all concrete mix. In the case of flow properties, mechanical properties, and durability, compared to the existing standard concrete mix, the performance tends to decrease, but it is judged that the performance above the required performance level can be satisfied. When considered comprehensively, the quaternary component High-Fluidity Concrete with a large mixing amount of fine powder of blast furnace slag showed relatively good performance.

This study is about the rheological properties of cement slurry using admixtures. The variables are the type of cement(Type I, II, IV, V) and the substitution ratio of admixtures such as fly ash and slag. As a result of measuring the fluidity of various types of cement slurry at the early stage, type 2, type 4 and type 5 showed the similar property. The fluidity of type 1 and ternary blended cement was low. it is thought that it is because of the high $C_3$A content. The cement slurries containing mineral admixtures were superior in the property of fluidity retention.

This study investigated the fluidity, heat of hydration, setting time, strength development, and characteristics of hydration and pozzolanic reactions of high-strength high-volume ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBFS) blended cement pasts with the water-to-binder ratio of 20% by experiments, and analyzed the effects of the replacement ratio and fineness of GGBFS on the hydration and pozzolanic reaction. The results show that, in the high-strength mixtures with low water-to-binder ratio, the initial hydration is accelerated due to the "dilution effect" which means that the free water to react with cement increases by the replacement of cement by GGBFS, and thus, strengths at from 3 to 28 days were higher than those of plain mixtures with ordinary Portland cement only. Whereas it was found that the long term strength development is limited because the hydration reaction rates rapidly decreases with ages and the degree of pozzolanic reaction is lowered due to insufficient supply of calcium hydroxide according to large replacement of cement by GGBFS. Also, the GGBFS with higher fineness absorbs more free water, and thus it decreases the fluidity, the degree of hydration, and strength. These results are different with those of normal strength concrete, and therefore, should be verified for concrete mixtures. Also, to develop the high-strength concrete with high-volume of GGBFS, the future research to enhance the long-term strength development is needed.
