Fatigue tests were performed in various simulated body environments reflecting various factors (such as body fluids, artificial saliva) relevant within a living body. First, the fatigue limit under a simulated body environment (artificial saliva) was evaluated and the governing factors of implant fatigue strength were looked into by observing the fracture mode. The fatigue life of an implant decreased in the artificial saliva environment compared with that in the ringer environment. Furthermore, in the artificial saliva environment, the implant fracture mode was fatigue failure of fixture as opposed to the abutment screw mode in the ringer environment. In the fatigue test, corrosion products were observed on the implant in the simulated body environment. A larger amount of corrosion products were generated on the artificial saliva specimen than on the ringer specimen. It is thought that the stronger corrosion activity on the artificial saliva specimen as compared with that on the ringer specimen led to an overall decrease of fatigue life of the former specimen. In the case of the implant with a nitrided abutment screw eliminated hardened layer (TixN), a several times increase in fatigue life is achieved in comparison with tungsten carbide-coated implants.

Drying shrinkage in the hardened cement is known to change in volume by decreasing the moisture content in the hardened body, and it is known that the higher the W / C and the higher the content of the paste, the larger the drying shrinkage. In the case of ECC, more drying shrinkage occurs compared to concrete, since it does not contain coarse aggregate. Since ECC is an important material for tensile performance, the effect of restrained tensile stress on mechanical tensile behavior should be considered. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of stress caused by restraint on the tensile behavior of ECC. The mechanical properties of the specimens were tested by uniaxial tension tests with different restraints. As a result, the difference of tensile behavior according to restraint stress was observed and the cause was analyzed.

In this study, FT-IR analysis was performed by exposing cement paste to high temperature in order to characterize the change of hydration behavior of concrete structure damaged by fire accident. As the holding time increased, the Al-O vibration region increased due to the increase of Si-O symmetric Ca₂(SiO₄) and Brownilerite, and the OH stretching region tended to increase due to thermal decomposition of Ca(OH)₂.

In this study, the higher temperature thermal property of the fly ash-blast furnace slag system Geopolymer including alumina aggregate was investigated whether that Geopolymer will be or not useful as thermal-resistant construction materials. Under every mixing conditions, the crack on the surface of hardened body was not observed up to $800^{\circ}C$ and it corresponded with fact that level of changes was not significant before and after heating process. Residual compressive strength is most high when mixing Blast-Furnace Slag ratio is 60 wt% until temperature reaches $800^{\circ}C$. The major hydrates of hardened body of Geopolymer; amorphous halo pattern between $20{\sim}35^{\circ}$ (2theta) and mullite ($3Al_2O_3{\cdot}2SiO_2$) and quartz ($SiO_2$) was found during the experiment. Amorphous halo pattern was a aluminosilicate gel generated by geopolymeric polycondensation and it was found that the halo pattern of aluminosilicate gel was preserved up to $800^{\circ}C$. The patterns of aluminosilicate gel disappeared from $1,000^{\circ}C$ and crystal phases like gehlenite, calcium silicate, calcium aluminum oxide, microcline was observed with the increase of exposure temperature.

The grouting method is a method of construction for the purpose of waterproofing and reinforcing soft ground. When grout is injected into the ground, there are various types of penetration and diffusion of grout depending on the shape of the ground, the size of soil, the porosity, and the presence or absence of groundwater. the current situation. Therefore, in this study, to investigate the penetration performance of the grouting to conductive material, laboratory tests were performed on the addition of the conductive material. In the injection test, 0%, 3%, and 5% of the mixed water were added as conductive materials to the grout, and the original ground condition was composed of various types of ground composed of gravel and silica sand. Conductive grout is injected by pressure into the model ground using a dedicated injection device, and the injection time (t), pressure (p), flow rate (v) and injection amount (q) are measured, and the hardened body injected in the model ground is collected. Penetration performance was evaluated. In the results of the grout injection experiment, the amount of conductive material used and the grout injection rate showed an inverse relationship, and it was confirmed that the penetration pattern was changed according to the size of the soil particles in the model ground. The grout containing the conductive material has relatively good penetration into the ground and excellent strength and durability of the hardened body, so it was judged that it could be used as an additive for measuring the penetration range of the grout.

In this study, gel powder which had relatively high hydration reactivity in CaO and P2O5 rich composition of CaO-P2O5-SiO2-H2O system was prepared by sol-gel process and its hydrated specimen was manufactured. The it was investigated to appropriate calcination temperature in sol-gel process which hydrated specimen of gel powder have proven to strength and the effect of factors influenced strength in hydration process. The major product of before and after hydration reaction was hydroxyapatite, and crystalline phase of C-S-H was already formed during gelation process. After hydration reaction of pressed specimen, crystalline phase of C-S-P-H was formed. It was hydrated product of silicocarnotite (5CaO.P2O5.SiO2). Gel phases of C-S-H and C-S-P-H occured as a result of partial substitution of amorphous silica by P2O5 was formed. The strength of hydrated hardened body is developed by strong bonding and bridging between the gel phases of C-S-H or C-S-P-H and the crystalline products such as hydroxyapatite, Ca(OH)2 C-S-H and C-S-P-H. In addition, the ultrafine gel powder have an great effect on increase of hydration reaction.

For the preparation of tricalciumaluminate $(C_3A)$ clinker, in traditional clinkering method using oxides and carbonates as a raw material, uneconomical repetition of burning have been necessary to avoid the melting of clinker by eutectic reaction in the system $CaO-Al_2O_3$. In this study, special starting raw materials for the clinker burning were prepared from a mixture of oyster shell and aluminium hydroxide by heating to $1100^{\circ}C$ and hydrating at $30^{\circ}C$. The starting raw materials, hardened body with weak hydraulic strength, were mainly composed of $C_3AH_6$ formed by resolution-precipitation mechanism of the system $CaO-Al_2O_3-H_2O$. By heating them, relatively pure $C_3A$ clinker could be obtained by one-time burning at the fairly lower temperature than that of conventional method. The easier formation of $C_3A$ clinker seemed to be caused by higher compositional homogeneity and stoichiometry of the starting materials, high surface area and crystallographic instability of the thermally decomposed products, and the catalytic effect of decomposed moisture on the early-stage crystallization of calciumaluminates. The basic hydration behavior of the clinker was also confirmed.
