This study is about physical properties of concrete with changing displacement ratio of calcium sulfa aluminates(CSA) type admixture. Firstly, test shows that as displacement ratio of CSA increases and setting properties changes, fluidity and air contents decreases. In water to binder ratio 35$\%$ and 45$\%$, concrete using the cement replacing CSA 4$\%$ by volume shows that bleeding decreases 94.7$\%$ and 74.3$\%$ respectively, compared with plain concrete. In addition, setting time was promoted around 3 to 6 hour and 1 to 4 hour respectively. For harden concrete, increase of displacement ratio caused tendency of higher compressive strength as OPC has at early age. Replacing higher CSA admixture led to reduce of drying shrinkage.

This study investigates the fundamental properties and examines spalling appearances and residual compressive strength of high strength concrete containing hybrid organic fibers subjected to fire. Test showed that overall, an increase of fiber content decreased the fluidity of concrete, but specimens containing polyvinyl alcoho(PVA)+polypropylene(PP) fiber and nylon(NY)+PP fiber had improved flow. In addition, the air content of all specimens was properly ranged in target value, regardless of fiber content. As for the spalling properties when completed the fire test, control concrete exhibited spalling occurrence due to sudden elevated temperature. However, specimens containing more than 0.1 vol% of PP fiber prevented the spalling, while specimens containing PP+CL and PVA+PP fiber can protected from fire in more than 0.15vol% of the fiber content. Importantly, a specimen containing only 0.05vol% of NY+PP showed the favorable spalling resistance performance.

The spherical bead manufactured by rapidly cooling process shows high density of 3.64g/㎤, high unit volume weight of 2.6kg/l, and high solid volume of 71%. When it applies to the grouter, it is possible to obtain even high fluidity with only a small amount. This study, focusing the grouter using a rapidly-cooled electric arc furnace oxidizing slag(RC-EAFS), deals with the properties of flow and setting time in fresh state, compressive strength and length variation at 1, 3, 7 and 28 curing day in hardened state. As the results, even though the grouter with RC-EAFS shows comparative low strength, it will be possible to development the competitive product due to the properties of increasing flow and low cost.

The purpose of this study was to give fluidizing properties to non-sirtered cement made using by-products that can replace Portland cement by using a fluidizing agent. Blast furnace slag, C-type fly ash, and F-type fly ash were used for non-sirtered cement, and sand was used for aggregate. The amount of fluidizing agent used was fixed at 1%, and the water-cement ratio (W/C) was different by setting the binder blending ratio of the non-sintered cement differently, and the fluidity test and flow were compared. As a result of the experiment, when the flow standard was 170mm when the fluidizing agent was used, the fluidizing properties were shown at an average water-cement ratio (W/C) of 36%. Through this study, it was confirmed that the fluidizing properties appeared when the fluidizing agent was used in non-sintered cement.

This study is to investigate the engineering and shrinkage properties of concrete incorporating shrinkage reducing agent(SRA) and expansive additive(EA) in order to reduce shrinkage of concrete. According to results, as for the properties of fresh concrete, increase in, SRA and EA content leads to reduce the fluidity but to increase the air content, and as for setting time, there is little difference. For strength properties, it decreased with an increase in SRA dosage and increased up to 5% of EA content. For the properties of drying shrinkage, it shows decline tendency with an increase in SRA and EA content reiteratively. It alto reduces significantly with the combination of SRA-EA systems due to the combined effect of the admixture. In the scope of this paper, it is found that the use of SRA with 0.5％ and EA with 5% has optimum effects on the various properties of concrete. And under the combination of SRA and EA, it can reduce drying shrinkage about 37%.

This paper was evaluated the rheology properties according to each step of paste, mortar and HPFRCC as a part of the basic study to development of sprayed high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites(HPFRCC) for protection and blast resistant. Rheology test results in step of paste, in case of GGBFs and FA, it showed that the plastic viscosity and yield stress reduced gradually according to the increase of mixing rate, and in case of SF, the plastic viscosity and yield stress increased radically starting from the mixing rate of 10%. Rheology test results in step of mortar, type of aggregates, it showed that particle shape and grading of aggregate is influence on plastic viscosity and yield stress, and change of volume ratio is influence on plastic viscosity than yield stress. Fluidity and rheology test results in step of HPFRCC, if after a fiber mixed, it showed that viscosity agent is more effective to improve the fluidity and fiber dispersion than superplasticizer.

Existing cast in place piles made by grouting cement mortar have many problems that cracks by autogeneous and drying shrinkage bring about the deterioration of force for piles, segregations by the submersion of ground water occur and also, high cement contents lead to rise the manufacturing cost. Therefore, this study is intended to investigate the mechanical properties of high performance mortar, incorporating expansive additives and fly ash. for cast in place piles. According to the experimental results, as the contents of expansive additives increase in mortar mixture, fluidity decrease and air contents shows inverse tendency. Setting time is delayed. Although compressive strength at 7days shows a decline tendency. compressive strength at 28days and 91days increase slightly with 5% of expansive additives. As fly ash increase in mortar mixture, high fluidity is shown, air contents increase and setting time is delayed at fresh state, and additives are, the larger length change is, whereas shrinkage decrease with the increase of fly ash.

This paper presents the experimental results on the properties of the cement mortar with polycarboxylate-type superplasticizers PCA) which were synthesized by different mole ratio of methoxypoly(ethyleneglycol)monomethacrylate (MPEGMAA) and methacrylic acid (MAA) and by different length of polyethyleneoxide (PEO). As the PEO chain was longer and mole ratio of [MPEGMAA]/[MAA] was lower, the fluidity of cement mortar was better. The setting time of mortar with PCA was retarded, and as PEO chain was shorter and [MPEGMAA]/[MAA] was lower, it was more retared. Espeacially, when the molecular weight of MPEGMAA was 475(repeat unit of ethylene oxide=l0), the degree of retardation was the highest of them. The surface tensions of PCA solutions were lower than that of water due to the effect of PEO chain, and also the pore size distribution of cement mortar was influenced by it. The pores in cement mortar with PCA at 28 days were macropores in the range of 7 to 370$\mu\textrm{m}$, and accordingly, the densities and compressive strengths of mortar were lower than those of OPC mortar.

There are many methods to produce metal foams, which can be classified into three groups according to the state of the starting metal i.e. liquid or powder or solid. Three types of defects such as cell closing, cell deformation or breakdown and cell misrun are thought to be occurred when we make the open cell aluminum foams by precision casting. Filling ability of the mold slurry between preform is related with cell closing, mold collapsibility is related with cell deformation or breakdown, mold temperature and pouring pressure are related with cell misrun. These factors can be evaluated by measuring slurry fluidity, burnout strength and permeability of the mold. Properties of the plaster mold were evaluated to find optimum mold conditions for high quality open cell aluminum foam in this study. Permeability was almost zero independent of burnout conditions, however, crack initiation was found on the surface of all specimens one or two minutes after taking out from the furnace. Crack has grown and disappeared with time. This crack may facilitate the mold filling when molten metal is poured, because of the improved mold permeability. It was considered that crack initiation and disappearance was closely related with temperature difference between the surface and inner part. Knocking-out the mold is a difficult problem due to the small cell size, because continuous mesh structure of the metal foam is not strong. It is not easy to remove molding material after pouring. We can expect that water quenching can facilitate the knocking-out the mold after solidification without damaging cell structures. Collapsed particles after water quenching became bigger with the increase in time.

This study investigates the fundamental properties of high strength concrete made with various blame values of cement, manufactured by the particle screening method in a pulverizing process. Test showed that concrete using lower blame of cement, such as large particle (L) and both ordinary and large particle (OL), increased the fluidity of fresh concrete. As tine progressive, it was noticeable that the specimens using ordinary cement (OPC) gradually decreased the fluidity, but the other specimens showed the sudden decline until 30 minutes, which is followed by a gradual decrease after 60 minutes. For the setting time, higher blaine of cement accelerated the initial and final setting time, especially concrete using minute size of cement (M) was 10 hours faster than OPC. Compressive strength of L exhibited similar value at 1 days as to that of strength in OPC at 3 days. Importantly, the specimens using M also revealed the similar strength value, regardless of curing temperature between $-5^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, which means that using this minute particle of cement in concrete can secure the strength development even in the lower temperature circumstance. Therefore it is clear that using OPC+M simultaneously at cold weather concreting can resist the early frost and develop the early strength of concrete.
