  • The objective of this study is to present the reference data about the influence of concrete properties using crushed sand, according to the change of powder content and grain shape. From the test results. We obtained that as powder content is increased, sand aggregate ratio, water content and S.P/C are increased in mixing design of concrete. The more powder content is the less slump and air content loss are decreased in fresh state, but the higher compressive strength and drying shrinkage are increased in hardened concrete state. As grain shape become round, water content is decreased in mixing design of concrete. And also, loss of slump and air content in fresh state, compressive strength in hardened state are increased.

  • The principal objective of this study is to deepen the characterization studies already led on sand concretes in previous works. Indeed, it consists in studying the effect of the sand type on the main properties of sand concrete: fracture and mechanical properties. We particularly insist on the determination of the fracture characteristics of this material which apparently have not been studied. To carry out this study, four different types of sand have been used: dune sand (DS), river sand (RS), crushed sand (CS) and river-dune sand (RDS). These sands differ in mineralogical nature, grain shape, angularity, particle size, proportion of fine elements, etc. The obtained results show that the particle size distribution of sand has marked its influence in all the studied properties of sand concrete since the sand having the highest diameter and the best particle size distribution has given the best fracture and mechanical properties. The grain shape, the angularity and the nature of sand have also marked their influence: thanks to its angularity and its limestone nature, crushed sand yielded good results compared to river and dune sands which are characterized by rounded shape and siliceous nature. Finally, it should further be noted that the sand concrete presents values of fracture and mechanical properties slightly lower than those of ordinary concrete. Compared to mortar, although the mechanical strength is lower, the fracture parameters are almost comparable. In all cases, the sand grains are debonded from the paste cement during the fracture which means that the crack goes through the paste-aggregate interface.

  • This study is being done for the purpose to achieve a stable demand and supply of materials for long term. The author investigated condition of suitable mixer design method for concrete, an individual value and a character of dynamics as a supplement material by drying up the natural aggregate, and a possible practicalization plan to reduce defects to the minimum. As a result of this study, it can be acquired a good quality of concrete by the use of the natural sand (Nak Dong river sand) and the crushed sand with suitable mixing ratio. The fineness modulus (F.M) of mixing aggregate is $2.7\pm1$ at this time and this is good for workbility and plasticity of concrete.

  • 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 research observed crushed quality characteristic of crushed aggregates that is produced in representative stony mountains of Busan suburbs (Yang-san, Kim-hea, Jin-hea). And wished 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, 28, 60, 90 days to investigate properties of hardened concrete.

  • It is expected that the proportion of crushed aggregate will increase in order to fill the decreasing supply of sea sand in the southeast area. However, it is necessary to supply the least amount of sea sand to diversify the aggregate source, in order to minimize the mixing ratio of sea sand and crushed sand to minimize the structural stability of the concrete.

  • This paper is to investigate the effect of poor quality aggregate source used in Korea on the mixture proportion and strength development of the high strength concrete fixed at 450 kg/m3 of cement contents. For aggregate kinds, good quality crushed stone from KS certified manufacturer and low quality crushed stone from non certified construction field are used. For fine aggregates, river sand, land sand, sea sand and mixed sand are also used. It is found that the use of low quality aggregates resulted in an increase of water demand considerably due to poor gradation of aggregate and excessive fine particles. Test results indicate that the use of low quality aggregate also decreases the compressive strength compared with that of good quality aggregate.

  • Schmidt hammer and ultra-sonic method are commonly used for crushed sand concrete compressive strength test in a construction field. At present, various of equations for prediction of strength are present, which have been used in a construction field. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the correlation between prediction strength by presentation equations and destructive strength to test specimen, and find out which is a suitable equation for the construction site. In this study, a strength test was carried out destructive test by means of core sampling and traditional test. The experimental parameter were concrete age, curing condition, and strength level.

  • The main object of this paper is to investigate the effects of high temperatures on the physical and mechanical properties of natural sand concrete(NSC) and crushed sand concrete(CSC). Test samples were exposed to high temperature ranging from $200^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$. After exposure, various tests were conducted. Color image analysis and weight losses were determined and compressive strength test and splitting tensile strength test were conducted. The results indicated that weight losses increased as exposure temperature increased with comparable decreasing rate. The results also showed that compressive strength and splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity decreased as exposure temperature increased. The results also showed that residual compressive strength of NSC decreased more drastically than that of CSC at $200^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$. Residual splitting tensile strength of NSC decreased more than that of CSC at $200^{\circ}C$, while NSC and CSC showed comparable residual strength ratio at $800^{\circ}C$.
