This study is intended for how to utilize the recycled fine aggregate which is produced by concrete wastes. It analyzes the quality of the fine aggregate which is reproduced through the acid treatment process, and comprehends the characteristics of mortar using the recycled fine aggregate to review whether it can be put to practical use for concrete. The conclusion of the study are as follows 1. The recycled fine aggregate through the acid treat shows the low rate of absorption and high density. 2. Compared to the mortar made from acid liquid precipitated recycled fine aggregate, using nature water precipitated one reduces the flow. 3. The compressive strength of mortar using recycled fine aggregate tends to be reduced according to the kind of precipitated water. Based on the above results, the recycled fine aggregate through the acid treatment process satisfies the quality standards of the first-grade recycled fine aggregate of KS F 2573 (recycled fine aggregate for concrete) but it is concluded that the recycled fine aggregate through the acid treatment process can not used as fine aggregate used concrete because it has destructive characteristics when the mortar is produced

The Research is underway to utilize heavyweight concrete for various applications. One of them is to use heavy concrete as a marine concrete such as a breakwater to resist wave. Marine concrete is often complex in shape and requires high fluidity. When the heavyweight concrete is high fluidity, there is a high risk of segregation due to the high density of the coarse aggregate. Therefore, we evaluate the fluidity of heavyweight concrete using heavy fine aggregate. As a result of the fluidity evaluation of the heavyweight concrete, the fluidity of the heavy fine aggregate was similar to that of ordinary concrete. Therefore, it is considered that the use of heavy fine aggregate in the development of high fluidity heavyweight concrete will be one of the methods.

Recycled aggregate by the recycling construction waste has a lot of advantage such as the developing the alternative resource and protecting of environment. However, recycled aggregate is used as the low quality grade, because the technic to remove old mortar from aggregate is low level. To use the recycled aggregate as high quality grade, it is important to develop the technic to produce the high quality recycled aggregate. To manufacture the high quality recycled aggregate, old mortar attached on the aggregates should remove efficiently. Therefore, in this study, we suggested the optimum condition to remove old mortar effectively using sulfuric acid and low speed wet rotary mill for high quality recycled fine aggregate. The results shows that the recycled aggregate satisfy on the standards of KS F 2573 in density, absorption and solid volume when, adequate condition of sulfuric mole ratio and aggregate ratio are make.

This study aims to suggest a simple and convenient design for a mix proportion method for high performance concrete by determining the optimum fine aggregate ratio and minimum binder content based on the maximum density theory. The mix design method introduced in this study adopted the optimum fine aggregate ratio with a minimum void and binder content higher than the minimum binder content level. The research results reveal that the method helps to reduce trial and error in the mixing process and is a convenient way of producing high performance concrete with self filler ability. In an experiment based on the mix proportion method, when aggregate with the fine aggregation ratio of 41$\%$ was used, the minimum binder content of high performance concrete was 470kg/$m^{3}$ and maximum aggregate capacity was $0.657m^{3}/m^{3}$. In addition, in mixing high performance concrete, the optimal slump flow to meet filler ability was 65$\pm$5cm, V load flow speed ranged from 0.5 to 1.5.

This study aimed to investigate the suitability of some concrete components for producing "high-performance heavy density concrete" using different types of aggregates that could enhances the shielding efficiency against ${\gamma}$-rays. 15 mixes were prepared using barite, magnetite, goethite and serpentine aggregates along with 10% silica fume, 20% fly ash and 30% blast furnace slag to total OPC content for each mix. The mixes were subjected to compressive strength at 7, 28 and 90 days. In some mixes, compressive strengths were also tested up to 90 days upon replacing sand with the fine portions of magnetite, barite and goethite. The mixes containing magnetite along with 10% SF reaches the highest compressive strength exceeding over M60 requirement by 14% after 28 days. Whereas, the compressive strength of concrete containing barite was very close to M60 and exceeds upon continuing for 90 days. Also, the compressive strength of high-performance concrete incorporating magnetite fine aggregate was significantly higher than that containing sand by 23%. On the other hand, concrete made with magnetite fine aggregate had higher physico-mechanical properties than that containing barite and goethite. High-performance concrete incorporating magnetite fine aggregate enhances the shielding efficiency against ${\gamma}$-rays.

The use of recycled aggregate, even for low-performance concrete, has been very limited because recycled aggregate, which contains a large amount of old mortar, is very low in quality. To produce a high-quality recycled aggregate, removing the paste that adheres to the recycled aggregate is very important. We have conducted research on a complex abrasion method, which removes the component of cement paste from recycled fine aggregate by using both a low-speed wet abrasion crusher as a mechanical process and neutralization as chemical processes, and well as research on the optimal manufacturing condition of recycled fine aggregates. Subsequently, we evaluated the quality of recycled fine aggregate manufactured using these methods, and tested the specimen made by this aggregate. As a result, it was found that recycled fine aggregates produced by considering the aforementioned optimal abrasion condition with the use of sulfuric acid as reactant showed excellent quality, recording a dry density of 2.4 and an absorption ratio of 2.94. Furthermore, it was discovered that gypsum, which is a reaction product occurring in the process, did not significantly affect the quality of aggregates. Furthermore, the test of mortar using this aggregate, when gypsum was included as a reaction product, showed no obvious retarding effect. However, the test sample containing gypsum recorded a long-term strength of 25.7MPa, whereas the test sample that did not contain gypsum posted a long-term strength of 29.4MPa. Thus, it is thought to be necessary to conduct additional research into the soundness and durability because it showed a clear reduction of strength.

In recent years the field application of high performance concrete has been increased to improve the quality and reliability of concrete structures. The mix design of the high performance concrete includes the 2 set-off mixture theory of mortar and coarse aggregate and that of paste and aggregate. The 2 set-off mixture theory of mortar and coarse aggregate has a problem of having to determine its value through repeated experiments in applying the rheological characteristics of mortar. The 2 set-off mixture theory of paste and aggregate has never been applied to high performance concrete since it doesn't take into account the relationship between optimum fine aggregate ratio and unit volume of powder nor does it consider the critical aggregate volume ratio. As the mixture theory of these high performance concretes, unlike that of general concrete, focuses on flowability and charge-ability, it does not consider intensity features in mix design also, the unit quantity of the materials used is determined by trial and error method in the same way as general concrete. This study is designed to reduce the frequency of trial and error by accurately calculating the optimum fine aggregate ratio, which makes it possible to minimize the aperture of aggregate in use by introducing the maximum density theory to the mix design of high performance concrete. Also, it is intended to propose a simple and reasonable mix design for high performance concrete meeting the requirements for both intensity and flowability. The mix design proposed in this study may reduce trial and error and conveniently produce high performance concrete which has self-chargeability by using more than the minimum unit volume of powder and optimum fine aggregate with minimum porosity.

In general, magnetite or barite (density: more than 4.0ton/㎥) has been used in concrete for radiation shielding, and radiation tests have been performed to evaluate shielding performance. However, researchers have not studied concrete for radiation shielding that utilizes electric arc furnace oxidizing slag. This research aims to utilize electric arc furnace oxidizing slag which depends on reclamation as environment-friendly concrete materials by using coarse and fine aggregates of electric arc furnace slag containing 30% ferrous metal and with a density of around 3.0~3.8 ton/㎥. Accordingly, this research has judged that the high density electric arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate can be applied to radiation shielding concrete. It has also examined the possibility of developing radiation shielding concrete utilizing electric arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate by comparing concrete utilizing all fine and coarse aggregate of electric arc furnace oxidizing slag with concrete using magnetite.
