This paper investigated the results of quality of concrete using mixed sand with grading adjustment in order to find out the applicability of fine aggregate with bad grading, According to test results, fluidity of concrete with fine level grading river sand was decreased while with coarse level grading crushed sand increased compared with that with medium level grading crushed sand. Use of mixed sand with grading adjustment(MSG) resulted in an improvement in fluidity. Increase in fineness modulus led to an increase in bleeding, For compressive strength, use of MSG increased compressive strength. For drying shrinkage, use of fine level grading river sand resulted in an increasing drying shrinkage due to the larger presence of fine particles, while use of MSG led to a reduction in drying shrinkage

Recently, as concrete is used in many construction works in Korea, the use of aggregates is also increasing. However, the depletion of aggregate resources is making it difficult to supply and demand high-quality aggregates, and the use of defective aggregates is causing problems such as poor performance such as the liquidity and strength of concrete pouring out in the field. As a result, quality tests such as sieve analysis test is conducted on their own, but this study was conducted to improve time and manpower by using the CNN-based Deep Learning Model for the fineness modulus.

Concrete structures exposed to fire produce changes in their internal structure, resulting in their service life reduction due to the deterioration of its strength and performance capacity. The deterioration level are dependent on the temperature, exposure time, concrete mix proportions, aggregate property, and material properties. This study was performed to evaluate the thermal behavior of ultra-high strength concrete for the parameters of water to cement ratio (compressive strength), fine to total aggregate ratio, and maximum coarse aggregate size. At room temperature and $500^{\circ}C$, tests of ultrasonic pulse velocity, resonance frequency, static modulus of elasticity, and compressive strength are performed using ${\varnothing}100{\times}200\;mm$ cylindrical concrete specimens. The results showed that the residual mechanical properties of ultra-high strength concrete heated to $500^{\circ}C$ is influenced by variation of a water to binder ratio, fine to total aggregate ratio, and maximum coarse aggregate size.

This study investigated effect of recycled fine aggregate quality on strength properties of concrete. Some investigations have been carried out to study the strength properties of recycled aggregate concrete. But these have some limitation due to small-scale test in the laboratory. Therefore concrete using this study were fabricated by ready-mix concrete. Variables were quality of recycled fine aggregate(high and low quality) and replacement ratio of 0%, 30%, 60%, 100%(high quality), 35, 70%(low quality). The change of air content of recycled aggregate concrete were similar to natural aggregate concrete. Replacement ratio of recycled aggregate was not necessarily correlated with compressive strength and modulus of rupture of recycled aggregate concrete.

Though the wet bottom ash has been used as a type of lightweight aggregate, dry bottom ash, new type bottom ash from coal combustion power plant, has scarcely researched. It is excellent lightweight aggregate in the view point of construction material. This study is performed to check the applicability of dry bottom ash as a fine aggregate in lightweight aggregate concrete, by analyzing various properties of fresh and hardened concrete. We get results that the slump of concrete is within the target range at less than 75% replacement rate of dry bottom ash, the air content is not affected by the replacement rate of dry bottom ash, the bleeding capacity is less than $0.025cm^3/cm^2$ at 75% under of the replacement rate of dry bottom ash, and the compressive strength of concrete show 90% or more comparing the base mix while initial strength development is a little low. Oven dry unit weight of concrete is reduced by 8.9% when replaced 100% dry bottom ash, and dry shrinkage tends to decrease depending on increase of replacement rate of dry bottom ash. Modulus of elasticity of concrete shows no decease at 50% over of the replacement rate of dry bottom ash, while modulus of elasticity of concrete decreases when the replacement rate increases further. The dry bottom ash, when used as a fine aggregate in lightweight concrete, can be used effectively without any deterioration in quality.

This work investigates the mechanical properties of conventional concrete (CC) and self compacting concrete (SCC) using fine rubber and silpozz were accompanied by a comparative study between conventional rubberized concrete (CRC) and self compacting rubberized concrete (SCRC). Fine rubber (FR) from scrap tires has replaced the fine aggregate (FA) and Silpozz has been used as a replacement of cement at the proportions of 5, 10 and 15%. Silpozz as a partial replacement of cement in addition of superplasticiser (SP) increases the strength of concrete. Fresh concrete properties such as slump test, compaction factor test for CRC, whereas for SCRC slump flow, $T_{500}$, V-funnel, L-box, U-box, J-ring tests were conducted along with the hardened properties tests like compressive, split tensile and flexural strength test at 7, 28 and 90 days of curing. The durability and microstructural behavior for both CRC and SCRC were investigated. FR used in the present study is 4.75 mm passing with fineness modulus 4.74.M30 grade concrete is used with a mix proportion of 1:1.44:2.91 and w/c ratio as 0.43. The results indicate that as FR quantity increases, workability of both CRC and SCRC decreases. The results also show that the replacement of natural fine aggregate (NFA) with FR particles decreases the compressive strength with the increase of flexural strength observed upto 5% replacement of FR. Also replacement of cement with silpozz resulted enhancement of strength in SCRC.

The recent government policy for environment is pursuing for a circular waste control system not only to reduce waste as much as possible but also to vigorously use the already produced waste. Copper slag has a higher fineness modulus and a greater specific gravity than natural aggregate. but when the substitutive ratio of fine aggregate is higher than 30%, material segregation occurs by bleeding. Thus, in this study, the strength and the physical properties were tested for the specimens manufactured by varying the types of admixtures, and the substitutive ratio of copper slag to suppress material segregation occurring due to the bleeding of concrete using copper slag as the substitutive material of fine aggregate and to find the adequate substitutive ratio of copper slag.
