This study tested the alkali-silica reactivity of various types of crushed stones, following the specifications of ASTM C 227 and C 1260, and the results obtained from the tests were compared. This study also analyzed the effects of particle size and grading of reactive aggregate based on the expansion of mortar-bar due to an alkali-silica. The effect of mineral admixtures to reduce the detrimental expansion caused by the alkali-silica reaction was investigated based on the method specified by ASTM C 1260. The mineral admixtures used in this study were fly ash, silica fume, metakaolin and ground granulated blast furnace slag. The replacement ratios of 0, 5, 10, 15, 25 and 35% were uniformly applied to all the mineral admixtures, and the replacement ratios of 45 and 55% were additionally applied for the admixtures that could sustain the workability at these ratios. The results indicate that replacement ratios of 25% for fly ash, 10% for silica fume, 25% for metakaolin and 35% for ground granulated blast furnace slag were the most effective in reducing the expansion due to the alkali-silica reaction under the experimental conditions of this study.

This paper reports an experimental study into the rheological behaviour of self consolidating concrete (SCC). The investigation aimed at quantifying the impact of the varying amounts of mineral admixtures on the rheology of SCC containing natural sand. Apart from the ordinary Portland cement (OPC), the cementitious materials such as fly ash (FA), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and micro-silica (MS) in conjunction with the mineral admixtures were used in different percentages keeping the mix paste volume and flow of concrete constant at higher atmospheric tempterature ($30^{\circ}$ to $40^{\circ}C$). The rheological properties of SCC were investigated using an ICAR rheometer with a four-blade vane. The rheological properties of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) containing different mineral admixtures (MA) were investigated using an ICAR rheometer. The mineral admixtures were fly ash (FA), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), and micro silica (MS). The results obtained using traditional workability results are compared with those obtained using ICAR rheometer. The instrument ICAR (International Center for Aggregate Research) rheometer employed in the present study for evaluating the rhelogical behaviour of the SCC is found to detect systematic changes in workability, cementitious materials, successfully. It can be concluded that the rheology and the slump flow tests can be concurrently used for predicting the flow behaviours of SCC made with different cementitious materials.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the compressive strength property of concrete with Ground granulated blast furnace slag(GBFS) using wash water from recycled aggregate. When GBFS is reacted with water, it doesn't happen to hydraulic reaction but GBFS becomes latent hydraulic property in alkaline environment. For this reason, if it is possible to use wash water from recycled coarse aggregate as mixture water, GBFS have the advantage of early strength due to effect of activation. We investigated the compressive strength properties of GBFS concrete using wash water from recycled aggregate. According to the experimentation result, ICP-OES showed wash water from recycled coarse aggregate has a high alkali value of pH of 12. Also, compressive strength in early age using wash water can be improved as an activation.

The most popular building material, concrete, is intrinsically linked to the advancement of humanity. Due to the ever-increasing complexity of cementitious systems, concrete formulation for desired qualities remains a difficult undertaking despite conceptual and methodological advancement in the field of concrete science. Recognising the significant pollution caused by the traditional cement industry, construction of civil engineering structures has been carried out successfully using Geopolymer Concrete (GPC), also known as High Performance Concrete (HPC). These are concretes formed by the reaction of inorganic materials with a high content of Silicon and Aluminium (Pozzolans) with alkalis to achieve cementitious properties. These supplementary cementitious materials include Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS), a waste material generated in the steel manufacturing industry; Fly Ash, which is a fine waste product produced by coal-fired power stations and Silica Fume, a by-product of producing silicon metal or ferrosilicon alloys. This result demonstrated that GPC/HPC can be utilised as a substitute for traditional Portland cement-based concrete, resulting in improvements in concrete properties in addition to environmental and economic benefits. This study explores utilising experimental data to train artificial neural networks, which are then used to determine the effect of supplementary cementitious material replacement, namely fly ash, Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) and silica fume, on the compressive strength, tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity of concrete and to predict these values accordingly.

This study was carried out to investigate quantitatively the relatonship between the water binder ratio and the concrete strength using finely ground granulated furnace blast slag to apply f 0.5% type admixture. The experimental parameters are water-binder ratio (40, 45, 50, 55, 60%) and slag contents(0, 10, 20, 30%). As a result, it can make that the water-binder ratio of concrete contented slag can be calculated by equation using relationship between compressive strength of concrete and water-binder ratio which is consisted of mixing strength and cement strength K.

Blast-furnace slag cement has been used widely as a structural material due to the latent hydraulicity of granulated ground blast furnace slag(GGBS)for a long time as The wall as ordinary portland cement. In this study, based on the fundamental investigation on the high strength and high durable concrete using the high fineness GGBS the following remarks can be made. 1) The average desired strenth of concrete is Or=600~800kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. 2) The above high strength concrete using the high fineness GGBS is more workable than those using only OPC. 3) The adiabatic temperature and drying shringkage decrease, so the density and resistance to sea water attack increase as results. 4)The unit cement content and unit air entrained admixture at the same desired strength of concrete decrease, so the economical high strength concrete can be manufactured from using the high fineness GGBS.

고로슬래그 미분말과 페로니켈슬래그 골재를 혼입한 저발열 콘크리트의 특성을 분석하고, 이 콘크리트의 LNG 저장탱크용 매스콘크리트에의 적용성을 검토하였다. 먼저 배합설계를 통해 콘크리트의 굳기 전 및 굳은 뒤 특성을 확인 하였으며, 단열온도 상승실험을 통해 단열곡선의 계수를 측정하였다. 측정된 계수를 이용해 LNG 저장탱크에 대한 수화열 해석을 진행하여 균열발생 가능성을 판단하였다. 실험 결과 적당한 유동성을 갖으면서도 28일까지 약 40 MPa의 압축강도를 확보할 수 있는 콘크리트 배합을 결정하였으며, 이 배합은 저열포틀랜드시멘트 콘크리트에 비해 최종 발열량은 낮고, 발열속도는 빨랐다. LNG 탱크의 여러 부재에 대한 수화열 해석 결과 균열 발생가능성은 낮음을 확인 하였다.

An experimental study is carried out to estimate the way of applying the granulated blast furnace slag[GBFS] to the lean concrete subbase of concrete pavement. According to the test results, this application seems promising. For this application, mixing percent of GBFS ranging from 30 to 45 is recommendable at this stage. Expected benefits using GGBFS in the field of concrete pavement include reduced shrinkage crack, reduced pavement thickness, and extended service life.

연구의 목적은 반응성 골재를 함유한 알칼리 활성화 고로슬래그 미분말의 알칼리-골재반응으로 인한 팽창을 조사하기 위한 것이다. 또한 이 연구는 현재 존재하고 있는 반응성 골재와 알칼리 재료들의 거동과 관련하여 특별히 관여 되어 지고 있다. 실험 방법은 EDS, SEM을 통하여 알칼리-실리카 반응 생성물의 구성이나 미세구조를 관찰하였으며 알칼리-실리카 반응에 의한 모르터 바의 팽창정도를 측정하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면 알칼리-활성화된 모르터는 알칼리 실리카 반응 때문에 팽창이 되었지만 14일 재령에서 0.1%의 팽창률을 나타내어 알칼리-실리카반응에 대하여 안전한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 촉진 실험 후 SEM과 BEM분석한 결과 골재 주변과 시멘트 페이스트에 알칼리-실리카 겔 및 띠 모양의 생성물이 나타난 것을 볼 수 있었다. EDX에 따르면 반응생성물이 알칼리 활성화 고로슬래그를 사용하였을 경우 현격히 감소한 것을 볼 수 있다. 추가적으로 광물학적 혼화재료의 대체 재료로써 콘크리트 내구성의 특성을 보증하기 위하여 알칼리 활성화 고로슬래그의 품질을 향상시키는 연구가 필요하다.
