PURPOSES: In this study the influence factors related to abrasion resistance of interlocking concrete block have been evaluated, and comparisons between various domestic and foreign abrasion test methods was also accomplished. METHODS: The modified rotational cutting method suggested in ASTM C 944 was applied. Surface materials with different types of fine aggregate such as crushed sand, sea sand, and mixture of crushed and sea sand were tested to compare the aggregate effect for abrasion resistance. RESULTS: The different surface mixtures with various W/C ratios, mortar and fly ash ratios have been investigated for functional and economical considerations. CONCLUSIONS: This study had obtained reliable results by changing diamond blade of rotating cutter. Therefore, in order to improve the abrasion resistance of interlocking concrete block for road, a new mix design was proposed.

In this paper, the properties of Interlocking block contained blast furnace slag cement are compared with that with O.P.C.(ordinary portland cement) and are analyzed under various mix proportions and the dosage of AE agent. According to the experimental results, compressive strength and flexural strength of interlocking block with blast furnace slag cement are lower than that with OPC. Also the strength and the ratio of absorption decrease with higher dosage of AE agent. although interlocking block with OPC has better performance than that of blast furnace slag in the side of quality, it is worth while to use the blast furnace slag as materials of interlocking block considered the side of recycling of resources and economy.

The incinerated municipal waste can be classified into two general types of ash; fly ash and bottom ash. The fly ash is appointed as specified waste, because it contains harmful heavy metals, ie Pb , Cd, etc. more than permitted standard index. The purpose of this study is to manufacture the non-sintering artificial aggregates using municipal waste incineration fly-ash and to evaluate their applications as coarse aggregates in concrete interlocking block. The test results of water absorpsion, strengths of the concrete block using artificial aggregates showed that the artificial aggregates could be used in part of 10-20% as coarse aggregate in concrete block.

Developed is a new environment-friendly concrete-block retaining wall system. The conventional analysis methods are not directly applicable because the proposed concrete-block wall system is made of by interlocking the blocks with shear keys. Therefore, the shear analysis as well as stability analysis have been conducted to secure the safety of block-wall system. Overall slope stability analysis was also performed. An appropriate strengthening method was developed to ensure the safety when the block-wall system is relatively high. The method of analysis for strengthening the concrete-block wall system was also proposed. The proposed environment-friendly concrete block retaining wall system shows reasonable safety and can be a good construction method for retaining walls and river bank walls.

The objective of this study is to investigate the properties of fine particles in the process of producing crushed fine aggregates under various fine particle contents. According to the test results, when fine particles are added as substitution of aggregates by about 10%, it shows that the qualities of interlocking block such as compressive strength, flexural strength and absorption ratio are improved. The application of fine particles provide various advantages in the sides of recycling of materials

The present age, it has been often reported that recycling of wasted glasses should he a great topic in related business circles. For the enviromental reasons, a public institution are looking for the ways of recycling these waste glasses. First of all, the purpose of this research is to recycle crushed and powdered waste glasses by substituting for the cement in mortar and concrete. the optimum replacement ratio of Powdered Waste Glasses(PWG) can be obtained from the pilot test results. Secondary, we made advances in recycling of waste glasses as recycled to make secondary concrete products. so, we manufactured concrete brick, block and interlocking block for side walk contained powdered waste glasses. finally, we compare properties among of concrete products to slove the economical and environmental problems.

Permeable polymer cement concrete in this study is one of the invironment conscious concretes that can be applied at roads, side walks, parking lots, interlocking block and river embankment, etc. In this study, permeable polymer cement concretes using polymer dispersion(St/Ac) with water-cement ratios of 25, 30, 35 and 40%, polymer-cement ratios of 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%, and a ratio of cement to aggregate (by weight), 1 : 3.5(about 415kg/㎥), 1 : 4.0(about 375 kg/㎥), and 1 : 4.5(about 345kg/㎥) are prepared, and tested for compressive, flexural and tensile strength, and permeability. From the test results, increase in the strengths of permeable polymer cement concrete are clearly observed with increasing polymer-cement ratio, we can obtain the maximum strengths at water-cement ratio of 35%. The optimum permeable polymer cement concrete according to application and location of work can be selected in various mix proportions.

In this study, the basic physical properties and microstructure of concrete interlocking blocks with amount of different CO₂ gas injection were analyzed according to determine the applicability of In-situ carbonation technology to construction secondary products. The amount of carbon dioxide gas injection was selected as 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 wt.% compared to cement amount. A lab-scale press equipment was designed to apply developed carbonation technology to real construction site. And mixer for stable CO₂ gas injection was designed. Using the designed devices, CO₂ gas injected samples were created and physical property of samples were performed. As a result of the physical property test, as the CO₂ injection amount increased to 0.3 %, it showed higher strength behavior compared to the original mix. And more than 0.5 % samples showed lower strength behavior than original sample, but they satisfied the standard of concrete interlocking block. This results were determined that CO₂ injection contributed to the creation of hydrates such as C-S-H. Therefore, the possibility of applying carbonation technology, which injects CO₂ during mixing, to various secondary construction products was confirmed.
