In this study, engineering characteristics of permeable mortar using water-quenched blast furnace slag as fine aggregates were analyzed by laboratory experiments to examine its suitability for permeable concrete pavement techniques. Engineering characteristics of mortar were investigated by performing both the compressive, flexural strength tests together with the constant head permeability tests for twenty-six types of mixing samples having different percetage of slag, cement and water. After 28days of curing, every performance was tested to find optimum mixture. When the go coefficient of permeability was 10$\^$-2/cm / sec and flexural strength was 30kg/㎠, we conclusion that the best mix design in permeable mortar was made in the condition,60% of cement and 20% of water percentage of unit slag contents. From the present investigations, it is concluded that suitability for permeable concrete pavement techniques using water-quenched blast furnace slag as fine aggregates may possibly be used to achieve effects on strength together with drainage effects.

A series of experiments were performed to investigate the strength characteristics of concrete which contain air cooled blast-furnace slag as coarse aggregate. The slag is a by product of GISC. The experimental conditions are varied with three different W/C(45%, 50%, 55%) and the weight of water and S/a are constant. The strength properties of the concrete at 7days, 28days, 90days are examined. Also the same strength properties are examined for the normal concrete which contain river gravel and crushed stone respectively as coarse aggregate. As the comparison results of the strength properties, it was found that the compressive strength development of concrete containing blast-furnace slag is better than that of concrete using river gravel at early age, however this is adversely at long-term age, and the tensile and flexural strength of the concrete were not nearly affected by water-cement ratio.

The EMP slip rate was compared with the general concrete using the electric arc furnace slag as an aggregate. Experimental results show that the shielding rate of concrete specimens using electric arc furnace slag increases. It is considered that the shielding rate is increased due to the high Fe content in the components of the electric arc furnace slag aggregate.

In this study, blast furnace slag powder was used in concrete to help reduce carbon dioxide emissions and to recycle industrial waste. Blast furnace slag powder is a byproduct of smelting pig iron and is obtained by rapidly cooling molten high-temperature blast furnace slag. The powder has been used as an admixture for cement and concrete because of its high reactivity. Using fine blast furnace slag powders in concrete can reduce hydration heat, suppress temperature increases, improve long-term strength, improve durability by increasing watertightness, and inhibit corrosion of reinforcing bars by limiting chloride ion penetration. However, it has not been used much due to its low compressive strength at an early age. Therefore, this study evaluates the effects of steam curing for increasing the initial strength development of concrete made using slag powder. The relationship between compressive strength, SEM observations, and XRD measurements was also investigated. The concrete made with 30% powder showed the best performance. The steam curing seems to affect the compressive strength by destroying the coating on the powder and by producing hydrates such as ettringite and Calcium-Silicate-Hydrate gel.

Recently, reducing usage of cement and using by-product of industry such as blast furnace slag and fly-ash have been increased to reduce $CO_2$ gas emission. That apply to construction. As a result, reduction of environmental stress and recycling of resources are expected. In this study, as basic study to the reuse of resources and reduce Environmental Load, comparing and analyzing hardening characteristics and durability as using the blast furnace slag and fly-ash, examining concrete characteristics substituted the three elements for the blast furnace slag and fly-ash and evaluating the relationship as binder. Through this, it want to provide the basic data for mass utilization. Blast furnace slag powder and replaced at fly-ash compressive strength of concrete in the strength of the initial seven days material age lower level of expression significantly compared to the concrete, but, 28 days after the similar or higher compressive strength than the concrete expression of the was. In addition, the reserves replacement of blast furnace slag powder salt injury increasing resistance are seen improvements, according to the conventional blast furnace slag powder study by the chloride ions on the surface of the concrete are improved being fixation salt injury resistance is considered.

The purpose of this study is to examine ground granulated blast furnace(GGBF) slag produced in the country for concrete additive through physical and chemical alalysis. In this study, mortar using ordinary portland cement a part of which was replaced with GGBF slag is investigated through fundamental experiment. As the result , it was found that GGBF slag increased to some extent flow value and strength of mortar.

In this paper, we carried out the fundamental experiments on the resistance of chemical attack of mortar using the electric are furnace slag as fine aggregate. The mortar specimens made from the EAF slag as fine aggregate were immersed in four sorts of chemical solutions, and measured to investigate the change of compressive strength and weight. As the results of this study, it was found that compressive strength and weight were increased with incresing replacement ratio of the EAF slag.

This paper presents fundamental experiment for the properties of high performance concrete in its fresh and hardened state made with ground granulated blast-furnace (GGBF) slag. The result is that the effect of decreasing xoncrete temperature is to the mixing ratio of GGBF slag, but it presents disadvantage in the slump loss phase. In addition to, we know that the splitting tensile strength, compressive strength and elastic modulus of concrete mixed with high fineness GGBF slag are increased at age 28days.

Compared with the BF slag, the EAF slag has expansion due to the reaction with water and free CaO. Therefore it is specified in Concrete Specification that the FAP slag aggregated must not be used in concrete. Because of this reason it is unusual to use the EAF slag aggregate in concrete. The EAF slag aggregate treated with accelerated and water aging was comparatively satisfied with fundamental properties, which are specific gravity, unit weight, abrasion and immersion expansion ratio, as concrete aggregate. Therefore when we measured the compressive strength till 28 days, we found that the mortar and concrete replacing the natural aggregate with the EAF slag aggregate by 4 steps had better results than the concrete using the natural aggregate in a view of the compressive strength. But at 91 days, concrete using the EAF slag aggregate had no difference with it using the natural aggregate.

Flue gas desulfurization gypsum(FDG) is produced when removing sulfur oxides from combustion gas generated by coal power plant. However, the recycling of FDG is still limited to the certain purposes. In order to expand the possible application of FDG, this study aims to utilize FDG as an activator for ground granulated blast furnace slag. FDG produced by dry- and wet-process were used for the experiments. Slag paste specimens were produced by mixing with deionized water and simulated pore solution, and the role of FDG as an activator for blast furnace slag was evaluated using hydration study by XRD analysis and compressive strength development. According to the results, dry-type FDG was found to work as an activator for blast furnace slag without the presence of soluble alkalis. However, wet-type FDG needs assistance by soluble alkalis in order to work as an activator for blast furnace slag. It was also found that the substitution of dry- and wet-type FDG into blast furnace slag can increase the 28 day compressive strength of slag paste. It is expected that efficient and economical recycling of FDG will be possible if quantitative analysis of strength enhancement according to substitution rate of both dry- and wet-type FDG.
