In general, the insulation and protective sheaths on electrical conductors are made of combustible substances like PVC, natural or synthetic rubbers, and other organic or synthetic materials. When an electrical fire starts due to overheating of conductors/joints or sparking/arcing, the first thing to ignite is usually the insulation on the cables. When the insulation bums, the produced fumes are very toxic. To solve the problem, we have surely need the fire resistance cable that doesn't bum in a high temperature and emit toxic fume for operating a disaster prevention installation. In this paper, we have simulated the thermal analysis for the fire resistance cable according to the values of current in a overload and a short, and the values of outside flame with the fire resistance cable of the L's company product(600 V, FR-8 : Four Core) using the finite element method(Flux2D).

The aim of this study is to develop experimentally ultra high-strength concrete with compressive strength over 100MPa with current materials by important factors to influence the compressive strength of concrete. There are so many factors which influence the manufacturing of ultra high-strength concrete. But the experimental factors selected in this study are the sand aggregate ratio, the silica fume replacement ratio, the type of aggregate. the type of superplasticizer, the fiber mixing ratio. The results of this experimental study show that. it is possible to applicate in the field

Portland cement concrete is made with coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, portland cement, water and, in some cases, selected chemical admixture such as air-entraining agents, water reducer, superplasticizer, and so on, and mineral admixture such as fly ash, silica fume, slags, etc. Typically, in the concrete, the coarse aggregate and fine aggregate will occupy approximately 80 percent of the total volume of the finished mixture. Therefore, the coarse and fine aggregates affect to the properties of the portland cement concrete. As the deposits of natural sands have slowly been depleted, it has become necessary and economical to produce crushed sand(manufactured fine aggregate). It is reported that crushed sand differs from natural sands in gradation, particle shape and texture, and that the content of micro fines in the crushed sand affect to the quality of the portland cement concrete. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to investigate the characteristics of fresh and hardened concrete with higher micro fines. This study provides a firm data to apply crushed sand with higher micro fines.

The chloride ion penetrating into concrete is classified as the fixed chloride ion being bound in reacting to cement hydrate and the free chloride ion having a direct effect on rebar corrosion because being in solution inside porosity of concrete. Therefore, in order to study the diffusion properties of chloride ion, it is needed to evaluate binding chloride ion in concrete. In this study, we tried to give a fundamental information on diffusion of chloride ion in concrete with mineral admixtures through analysis of micro-structure transformations in concrete and effects on binding of chloride ion in cement paste when mixed with fly-ash, blast furnace slag, silica fume etc. which are used to improve durability and permeability of concrete

The most recent building trend is going large, high rise, high strength as overlarge project is developing in domestic construction business. Belite cement has properties like low heat, excellent long term strength, and durability without admixture(fly ash, silica fume). so, Belite cement is suitable for mass structure which is needed high strength, high fluidity and low heat property. This study is to examine the possibility of site adoption microwave-use early strength estimation method. Based on the existed study related the portland cement, the interrelation between Belite cement and microwave-use early strength estimation method is required. In this study, interrelation between mortar and Evaluating strength estimation method is investigated before the concrete experiment.

To do performance evaluations about inorganic permanent form mixed in admixture(fly ash, silica fume) and after placed concrete, it is examined reinforcement materials in the permanent form from shear strength, bond strength and flexural strength tests. In this study, permanent form was inserted with reinforcement metal fitting is strength-tested in several method. The result of this study is belows. ⑴ In bond strength test, Most specimens are satisfied with criterion-6 kgf/$cm^{2}$ ⑵ Irrelative with the inserted metal fitting's shape, unevenness and aggregate, Permanent form and after placed concrete have good condition in the shear strength test. ⑶ In flexural test, there is no drop out of permanent form. Most cracks are located in nearby the strain point

The High Strength Concrete REsearch Team of the Dong-Ah Construction R&D Institute has achieved the preactical use of the PHC pile manufacture technique at the Dong-Ah Chang-dong PC Plant. Components of the high strength concrete are used high strength cement, admixtures(water reducing high range admixture, micro silion fume, fly ash, gypsum). The design strength required 800kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was developed raging from 870kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ to 1010kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The new manufacture procedure of HPC pile which include placing, molding, steam curing is able to apply a current PC pile manufacture procedure easily without using the high pressure steam curing.

In order to discuss the engineering properties of carbon fiber reinforced cement composites with silica fume and silica powder, experimental studies in the CFRC were carried out. The types of fiber used which are in CFRC are PAN-based carbon fiber and Pitch-based carbon fiber. To examine the effects of types, lengths, contents of carbon fiber and matrices, their properties of fresh and fardened CFRC were tested. According to the test results, the process technology of light-weight CFRC is developed and their potimum mix proportions are successfully proposed. Also, it can be concluded that the reinforcement of carbon fiber is considerably effective in improving tensile strenghth, flexural strength, toughness and loss of shrinkage of CFRC compared with conventional mortar.

The properties of mortar and concrete including metakaolin as a partial cement replacement were investigated in terms of fluidity and compressive strength. The results show that mortar and concrete in which 10 % of cement is replaced with metakaolin exhibit much higher compressive strength after 3 days of hydration than ordinary Portland cement, indicating that metakaolin can be used in the production of high strength concrete replacing silica fume. The type of superplasticizer largely affected on the fluidity and compressive strength of mortar and concrete including metakaolin. It was concluded that when metakaolin is used for the purpose of manufacturing high strength concrete, it is desirable to use PNS based blends rather than PNS, PMS and polycarboxylate based superplasticizer.
