In this article, by using experimental studies and artificial neural network has been tried to investigate the use of nano-silica as concrete admixture to reduce alkali-silica reaction. If there are reactive aggregates and alkali of cement with enough moisture in concrete, a gel will be formed. Then with high reactivity between alkali of cement and existence of silica in aggregates, this gel will expand by absorption of water, and causes expansive pressure and cracks be formed. At the time passes, this gel will reduce both durability and strength of the concrete. By reducing the size of silicate to nano, specific surface area of particles and number of atoms on the surface will be increased, which causes more pozzolanic activity of them. Nano-silica can react with calcium hydroxide ($Ca(OH)_2$) and produces C-S-H gel. In this study, accelerated mortar bar specimens according to ASTM C 1260 and ASTM C 1567, with different mix proportions were prepared using aggregates of Kerman, such as: none admixture and plasticizer, different proportions of nano-silica separately. By opening the moulds after 24 hour and curing in water at $80^{\circ}C$ for 24 hour, then curing in (1N NaOH) at $80^{\circ}C$ for 14 days, length expansion of mortar bars were measured and compared. It was noted that, the lowest length expansion of a specimens shows the best proportion of admixture based on alkali-silica reactivity. Then, prediction of alkali-silica reaction of concrete has been investigated by using artificial neural network. In this study the backpropagation network has been used and compared with different algorithms to train network. Finally, the best amount of nano silica for adding to mix proportion, also the best algorithm and number of neurons in hidden layer of artificial neural network have been offered.

This paper intended to evaluate the applicability of drying shrinkage reducing superplasticizer (DSRA) by investigating physical properties of concrete using DSRA, The application of flowing concrete method exhibited a less loss of slump and air content with time than those of conventional concrete and had small bleeding. Flowing concrete had larger compressive strength than base and conventional concrete by as much as $3\~5\%$. It also had less drying shrinkage by as much as $20\%$ compared with conventional concrete. This is due to the coupled effect of reduced water content and aqueous type expansive admixture. On the other hand, neutralization depth of flowing concrete showed greater than conventional concrete.

The purpose of this study is to improve overall performance of prefoamed lightweight cellular concrete for On-Dol system floor. This study includes 4 sections as follows. \circled1 Analysis of the structural characteristics of On-Dol System focusing on the lightweight cellular concrete insulation layer. \circled2 Establishment of the mixing design equations. \circled3 Development of some admixtures used with foaming agent. \circled4 Improvement of the equipment for onsite production. This study has proven that, compared with the current existing one, the newly developed lightweight cellular concrete has been reduced the usage of cement by 20% and the cracks caused by cement drying shrinkage up to 80% but has shown the increased compression strength by 20% at 7 days curing period. The volume contraction of freshly prepared cellular concrete by the loss of foam was hardly found in newly developed lightweight cellular concrete.

Concrete with self-healing admixture can reduce the crack width by using a compound for chemical reaction with incoming water and carbon dioxide through the crack. Also, concrete with self-healing admixtures can reduce early-age shrinkage crack by using a inorganic expansive agent. In this research, we perform the basic workability test and compressive test. Also, We measure the drying shrinkage of concrete specimen. Finally, we make mock-up (3m X 3m X 0.23m) and monitor the crack width and length for 3 months.

In this research, the possibility of wasted refractory powder pulverized from refractory block as an expansive admixture and additional alkaline stimulant for class two and three blast furnace slag cements (BSC) was assessed with its high content of free CaO or free MgO. As the replacement ratios of wasted refractory powder and blast furnace slag were increased, flow and air content were decreased, while unit volume weight was increased under same conditions. Compressive strength of mortar was increased with increased replacement ratio of wasted refractory powder, especially, in the case of class three BSC, the highest compressive strength was obtained when wasted refractory powder was replaced 10 %.

This paper presents the results of drying shrinkage of concrete using shrinkage-reducingadmixture(DSRA) studied by the authors through mock-up test. DSRA is proportioned by expansive admixture and shrinkage reducing agent(SRA). Flowing concrete method is also applied to assist the concrete to reduce drying shrinkage by decreasing water content at the same time. The use of EA and SRA does not affect fluidity, bleeding and setting time. Compressive strength of concrete using EA along with SRA exhibited less than that of plain concrete. However, The compressive strength with combination of EA-SRA along with flowing concrete method shows comparable to that of plain concrete. The application of developed method can contribute to reducing drying shrinkage by as much as 30-40$\%$ compared with that of plain concrete.

본 연구는 무기질 재료인 Calcium sulfoaluminate(CSA), Crystalline admixture(CA) 그리고 Magnesium oxide(MgO)가 포함된 시멘트 모르타르의 물성 및 자기치유성능을 조사하였다. 자기치유성능을 분석하기 위해 모르타르 강도시험, 물투과성 실험을 실시하였으며, 다양한 균열폭 변화는 디지털 광학현미경을 사용하여 측정하였다. 자기치유를 통해 생성된 수화물에 대해서는 X-ray powder diffraction, Thermogravimetry를 통한 성분분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 CA치환량이 증가 할수록 압축 및 휨 강도는 증가하였다. 하지만 MgO치환 시에는 오히려 CA치환량이 증가 할수록 압축 및 휨 강도는 감소하였다. 회복된 균열부에 생성된 치유물질은 Ca(OH)2, MgCO3, CaCO3으로 확인되었다. CaCO3은 균열부에 생성된 주요 치유 성분으로 나타났으며, Ca(OH)2, MgCO3보다 높은비율을 차지하고 있는 것으로 확인 되었다. 또한, 물 투과성과 균열폭 결과를 통한 최적의 배합은 CSA 8% + CA 1% + MgO 2.5%으로 나타났다.

본 지하매설 구조물용 콘크리트는 보수가 어려워 내구성을 극대화할 필요가 있는데, 콘크리트의 건조수축에 의한 균열은 재료의 특성상 발생하는 열화현상으로 대안이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 건조수축 저감방안의 하나로써 급냉 슬래그 잔골재의 반응에 의한 팽창을 활용하여 콘크리트의 건조수축 발생량을 저감시키고자 하였는데, 실험결과 초기 재령에서 발생되는 수축을 효과적으로 억제하는 것으로 확인되었으며, 급냉 슬래그 잔골재의 치환사용량과 비례하여 전 재령에 거쳐 압축강도가 상승하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

근년에 와서 우리나라 건설업체의 해외진출이 빈번해 지고 있는 시점에서 특히 동남아 지역에서 대형 해양콘크리트구조물 등의 수주물량이 크게 증가하고 있는 추세를 감안하여 콘크리트 품질향상의 일환으로 광물질혼화재를 혼합한 고강도콘크리트에 착안하게 되었다. 그래서 광물질혼화재의 혼합률을 각각 달리하여 현장의 기후조건을 고려한 양생온도 $23^{\circ}C$ 및 $35^{\circ}C$의 2 종류와 양생조건을 3 종류로 변화시킨 4 배합, 16종류의 고강도콘크리트를 제조하였다. 본 연구 결과, 광물질혼화재를 혼합한 고강도콘크리트를 $35^{\circ}C$로 양생한 경우 초기재령에서 압축강도가 $23^{\circ}C$로 양생한 경우보다 컸으나 재령 28일 이후에는 반전되었다. 특히 고로슬래그미분말, 실리카흄과 팽창재 혼합 및 고로슬래그미분말과 실리카흄을 혼합한 고강도콘크리트의 총통과전하량은 각각 Negligible 및 Very low에 해당되는 매우 좋은 결과를 나타내었다. 따라서 고로슬래그미분말, 실리카흄 및 팽창재를 각각 적정량 혼합함에 따라 밀실한 고강도콘크리트의 제조가 가능하게 됨으로써 염화물이온 침투저항성이 크게 향상되었다.
