This study was performed to investigate the physical characteristics like compressive strength, permeability, porosity and the water quality removal characteristics of permeable concrete pavement filled with microbial-soil sheet to remove SS, organic matter and nutrients in artificial rainfall. As a result, it can show the removal efficiency is SS 90~95%, COD 85~93%, BOD 80~83%, T-N 61~75%, T-P 71~78% on WAPS I(W1) and WAPS II(W2). Therefore, permeable concrete pavement filled with microbial-soil sheet shows higher removal efficiency(SS 10%, organic matter and nutrients 30%) than a conventional porous concrete(W3). By filling microbial-soil sheet to permeable concrete pavement, we confirm that the function and efficiency are improved significantly and that a naturally-friendly facility can be developed and applied to treat non-point sources.

Instrumentation system in Concrete Face Rockfill Dam(CFRD) can give special attention to the deformation characteristics of the rockfill and behavior of the concrete membrane during construction, reservoir filling and subsequent phase of operation. It also contains data about vertical and transversal compressibility moduli of the rockfill, deflections in the concrete slab, and draws comparisons with other concrete face rockfill dams of recent construction. In this paper, the internal deformation data from D dam monitored by means of hydrostatic settlements cells are analyzed. Observations cover the construction stage, reservoir filling and up to March 1991. The above method can be concluded D dam was well constructed and maintained.

This research reviewed the characteristics of waste concrete sludge occurred from recycled aggregate producing process and the physical and mechanical properties of the mortar incorporated the pulverized the waste concrete sludge. From the results of the experiment, as the replacement ratio of waste concrete sludge powder was increased, the dosage of superplasticizer to satisfy the target flow of 200 ± 10 was increased, and the compressive and flexural strengths were decreased. On the other hand, when the sludge powder replacement ratio was 25 %, outstanding performance of general characteristics of mortar was obtained while it was lower than Plain mixture, thus, further detail study on various replacement ratios of waste concrete sludge powder is needed.

It is widely recognized that the strengths of reinforced concrete members have random characteristics due to the variability of the mechanical properties of concrete and steel, the dimensional error as well as incorrect placement of reinforcing bars. Statistical models of the variabilities of strengths of reinforced concrete members, therefore, need to be developed to evaluate the safety level implied in current practices. Based on the probabilistic models of basic factors affecting the R.C. member strengths, in this study, the probabilistic characteristics of member resistance have been studied through Monte Carlo simulation.

The objective of this study is to examine the fracture characteristics of concrete at early ages such as critical stress intensity factor, critical crack-tip opening displacement, fracture energy based on the concepts of the effective-elastic crack model and the cohesive crack model. A wedge splitting test for Mode I was performed on cubic wedge specimens with a notch at the edge. By varying strength and age, load-crack mouth opening displacement curves were obtained and the results were analyzed by linear elastic fracture mechanics. The results from the test and analysis showed that critical stress intensity factor and fracture energy increased, and critical crack-tip opening displacement decreased with concrete age from 1 day to 28 days. The obtained fracture parameters at early ages may be used as a fracture criterion and an input data for finite element analysis of concrete at early ages.

Most previous wave tests for concrete have been done to evaluate static material properties, and thus there are less works to investigate dynamic material characteristics of concrete, which should be few in Korea. The objective of this experimental work is to investigate dynamic material characteristics of concrete, such as dynamic elastic modulus, dynamic shear modulus, first resonant frequency, dynamic poisson's ratio and etc. A dynamic Signal Analyzer has been used to perform the wave analysis for various dynamic material properties of test specimen. First Fourier transform technique has been carried out on various wave data acquired by the Resonant Column method, which is a kind of nondestructive tests. Wave analysis has been performed based on KS F2437, which is similar to ASTM C607-71 and is identical to JIS A 1127-1976.

Recently, as to destruction and renovation of aged building, waste concretes have been reclaimed near foreshore and filled up underground. Recycling demolished concrete as aggregate helps to settle economic and environmental problems of obtaining superior aggregates from natural sources and to dispose waste concretes. An experimental study was carried out to investigate the strength characteristics of no-fine concrete containing recycled aggregates. The cement-aggregate weight ratios of 1: 5, 1: 6, 1: 7 and water-cement ratios of 30, 35, 40, 45% were chosen for the mix design of no-fine concretes. The compressive and splitting tensile strength at 7 and 28 days were measured for 12 different mixes. On the basis of test results, the optimum mix proportion of no-fine concrete containing recycled aggregates was determined and applied to the production of retaining wall block.

The chief factors for the penetration and diffusion of chloride ions in concrete are water-cement ratio(w/c), aging, thickness of cover concrete, chloride ions concentration of given environment, wet and dry conditions and etc. In this study, effect of w/c and aging on the characteristics of chloride ions diffusion in concrete were researched when environmental factors for the penetration and diffusion of chloride ions were constant. For this purpose, the voltages passing through the diffusion cell were measured by using accelerated test method using potential difference, and then diffusion coefficients of chloride ions by using Andrade's method were estimated for 44%, 49.5% and 55% of w/c, respectively. As a result, correlation among diffusion coefficients of chloride ions, w/c and aging were concluded through multiple regression model.

The objective of in this study makes investigation into the characteristics of concrete as to properties and blended ratio of crushed aggregates through experimental researches. In this study, river sand is blended with crushed sand as to investigate the quality change and characteristics of concrete with variation of blend ratio of crushed sand(50, 60, 70, 80, 90, $100\%$). Measured the air contents and slump to investigate properties of fresh concrete, and unit weight and compressive strength in age of 7, 28days to investigate properties of hardened concrete. The experimental results of crushed aggregates' qualities were all satisfied with Korea Standard's values.

Crushed sand is blended in order to investigate the quality changes and characteristics of concrete with variation of blend ratio of crushed sand (50, 60, 70, 80, 90, $100\%$). Slump and air content were measured to investigate properties of fresh concrete, and unit weight, compressive strength and modulus of elasticity in age of 7, 28, 60, 90, 180 days were measured to investigate properties of hardened concrete. Compressive strength, unit weight and modulus of elasticity were increased as time goes by and they are expected to keep on increasing in long-term age as well. As a result of measuring compressive strength and modulus of elasticity in age of 7, 28, 60, 90, 180days, compressive strength was highest when it is $70\%$ of blended ratio.
