The aim of this research is suggesting dry processed bottom ash as a new and economical source of lightweight aggregate for mortar and concrete. The dry process of bottom ash is an advance method of water-free and no chloride because only cooled down by double dry conveyer belt systems. Furthermore, because of relatively slow cooling down process helps burning up the remaining carbon in bottom ash. Using this dry process bottom ash, to evaluate the feasibility of using as a lightweight aggregate for mortar and concrete, two-phase of experiments were conducted: 1) improving shape of the bottom ash, and 2) controlling grade of the bottom ash. From the first phase of experiment, additional abrasing process was conducted for round shape bottom ash, hence improved workability and compressive strength was achieved while unit weight was increased comparatively. Based on the better shape of bottom ash, from the second phase, various grades were adopted on cement mortar, standard grade showed the most favorable results on fresh and hardened properties. It is considered that the results of this research contribute on widening sustainable method of using bottom ash based on the dry process and increasing value of bottom ash as a lightweight aggregate for concrete.

In the case of newly developed stud which has more performance of sound transmission loss, it is expected that sound would transmit through runner than stud. so we developed construction method of runner and stud. As a result, sound transmission loss is improved about 2 dB by using this method. But this construction method could be applied to only newly developed stud. In addition, sound leak of wall joint is about 2 dB, and it could be improved by using rubber gasket at joint.

In this study, we develop the damage depth diagnostic technology of fire damage concrete and propose an method of impaired depth due to fire by drying impaired concrete after immersing. Test results indicated that when assesing impared depth due to fire with the dry method after water immersing, impaired depth was clearly found and furthermore, compared with that by Phenolphthalein method 10 mm of damage depth was additionally identified, which is imposible to asses when Phenolphthalein is applied.

Life-long housing refers to housing units whose performance is certified by the head of a Life-long Housing certification authority with respect to durability, variability and ease of repair. Since life-long housing should be able to meet residents' demands for changes in living space, the space of the housing should be able to be varied by using a dry construction method, instead of a wet construction method. For life-long housing to be approved, the installation of infill systems that life-long housing certification standards is needed. At present, apartment houses are being constructed only in accordance with the general rating, which is the lowest rating in the life-long housing certification system. The reason for this is that, since the infill system was created, it has not yet been actively used due to a rise in construction costs when infill products are utilized. In this regard, this study seeks to propose ways to optimize infill usage and create scenarios that can minimize the costs of life-long housing construction, taking into consideration variations in construction costs based on the characteristics of infill systems applied to housing.

The size of ship is being larger than the past in the shipping industry thanks to the increased quantity of goods transported by ship. Therefore, HHIC (Hanjin Heavy industries & Construction co., LTD) invented innovative construction method, so called 'DAM', to build a ship which is longer than the length of the HHIC's dry dock. On Erection at the sea by the application of DAM Method, Squeezing & Detachment of A/F film may occur as a result of the wave and the constriction between A/F film pre-applied on the side shell and DAM's Rubber Packing. Thus, the test for finding the minimum curing time of A/F film was performed to protect Squeezing & Detachment of A/F film on the hull. To verify the soundness of paint and to find the optimum condition during the erection period of the DAM, laboratory test was carried out under no immersion condition through the application of various coatings on the Rubber Packing. And two methods were selected from the results of laboratory test for actual MOCK-UP Test. In addition, the test for the film profile per temperature of silicone A/F coat and the film Squeezing was performed.

Soil volume conversion factors are used for estimation of an excavated the soil volume which will be removed or added in levelling the ground surface of a construction site. An accurate evaluation method will help us reduce a construction cost and time consuming. In this study, we performed the laboratory tests, including grain size measurement, water content, specific gravity, porosity, density and XRD tests, to suggest reliable soil volume conversion factors and weathering indices in field using nondestructive methods. The weathering index and soil volume conversion factor L are obtained for different types of soils. At results, the CIW index is the best method measuring the weathering index and the factor L is relative to natural porosity, void ratio, density and dry density.

Lightweight concrete is known for its advantage of reducing the self-weight of the structures, reducing the areas of sectional members as well as making the construction convenient. Thus the construction cost can be saved when applied to structures such as long-span bridge and high rise buildings. However, the lightweight concrete requires specific mix design method that is quite different from the typical concrete, since using the typical mix method would give rise the material segregation as well as lower the strength by the reduced weight of the aggregate. In order to avoid such problems, it is recommended to apply the mix design method of self-compacting concrete for the lightweight concrete. Experimental tests were performed as such compressive strength, dry shrinkage and carbonation of high strength lightweight self-compacting concrete.

This study is to investigate adhesive properties depending on the temperature, humidity, and freeze-thraw of the Steel plate adhesive strengthening method by the epoxy resin. The results are summarized as following. For the temperature variation, the debonding failure appear only after 1 cycle of temperature varoation because the coefficient of thermal expansion of the epoxy resin is comparatively large, and the bonding strength is decreased. The deformation properties and ultrasonic pulse velocity on each materials are similar until 4 cycles on the dry and moisture test. As the freeze-thraw test, the epoxy resin is degraded easily subjected to freeze-thaw cycle, comparatively easy, so the debonding failure may occur in short term because of the freeze-thaw repeatition.p

This research utilizes the modified sulfur having the low melting point which 65℃ is tries to study the strength property of the mortar according to the cure method of the modified sulfur mortar. And we try to use as basic data for investigating the curing condition of the light panel optimum utilizing the modified sulfur. We experimented by five kinds; 20℃ water curing method and 20, 40, 60, 80(℃) air dry curing method. In 3 day curing, the compressive strength was improved caused by high curing temperature. But the compressive strength was degraded caused by enhanced temperature in 7day curing and 28day curing. Therefore, the curing temperature of the modified sulfur mortar is determined that it comes 20 time case curing and the water curing is the most recommendable.
