This study determines the best composite grade to minimize the void of aggregate mixture based on the maximum density theory in an attempt to suggest a mix proportion method design for asphalt mixtures. Study results show that the grading curve with the maximum mass per unit capacity of each aggregate mixture satisfied the KS standards and the optimum AP content to meet the optimal asphalt mixture void rate of 4$\%$ was 5.7$\%$, less than the optimum AP content of 6.5$\%$ suggested in the Marshal mix proportion method design. At the same time, the asphalt mixture produced based upon the suggested mix proportion method had a flow value 17$\%$ lower than that of asphalt mixture produced according to the Marshal method, while its density was greater by 0.06$\～$0.09. This suggests that the introduced mix proportion method design helps to improve the shape flexibility and crack-resistance of asphalt concrete.

This study proposes a mix design method for geopolymer concrete (GPC) using low calcium fly ash and alccofine, with the focus on achieving the required compressive strength and workability at heat and ambient curing. Key factors identified and nine mixes with varied fly ash content (350, 375 and $400kg/m^3$) and different molarity (8, 12 and 16M) of NaOH solutions were prepared. The cubes prepared were cured at different temperatures ($27^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$ and $90^{\circ}C$) and tested for its compressive strength after 3, 7 and 28 days of curing. Fly ash content has been considered as the direct measure of workability and strength. The suggested mix design approach has been verified with the help of the example and targets well the requirements of fresh and hardened concrete.

지금까지 이용된 아스팔트 혼합물 배합설계는 주로 마샬다짐방법을 이용하여 시편을 제작하였고, 정해진 공극률에 맞추어 제작된 시편의 간단한 역학적 특성치를 이용하였다. 선회다짐기를 이용한 다짐방법은 아스팔트 포장의 시공과정 및 시공 후 발생하는 아스팔트 표층의 다짐정도를 실내에서 구현할 수 있는 다짐방법이다. 선회다짐기를 이용하는 슈퍼페이브 배합설계는 주로 아스팔트 포장의 공용성 측면에 맞추어 이용되고 있다. 그러나, 선회다짐기는 아스팔트 혼합물의 다짐특성을 평가할 수 있는 좋은 다짐방법임에도 불구하고, 주로 시편제작용으로만 이용되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 슈퍼페이브 선회다짐기의 중요 특징중의 하나인 아스팔트 혼합물의 다짐 특성을 평가할 수 있는 지표를 개발하고, 이를 국내 아스팔트 혼합물 다짐곡선에 적용해 보는 것이다. 선회다짐기의 다짐곡선으로부터 얻을 수 있는 다짐특성지표는 크게 다짐에너지지수와 교통다짐에너지지수가 대표적인 값이다. 이러한 다짐에너지 곡선을 이용하여 아스팔트 혼합물의 소성변형 가능성을 평가하였고, 이를 적용할 수 있는 기준안을 제시하였다.

마샬배합설계에서 얻어지는 안정도나 흐름은 혼합물의 역학적 특성을 제대로 반영하지 못하며 소성변형과의 상관성이 낮다. 그러므로 안정도나 흐름의 기준을 통과하는 배합으로 제조한 혼합물에서도 소성변형이 많이 발생된다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 국내에서 이용되는 마샬 방법과 미국의 수퍼페이브 방법으로 배합설계를 수행하여 각 방법의 혼합물 특성치의 차이점과 문제점을 확인하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 골재 세 종류, 한 종류의 아스팔트(AC 60-80), 두 종류의 골재 입도(19mm, 13mm)를 각각의 배합설계방법에 사용하여 총 12종류의 혼합물을 배합설계를 수행하여 최적아스팔트함량을 결정하였다. 이 결정된 최적아스팔트 함량으로 혼합물을 제조하여 특성치를 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, 마샬 방법을 통해 결정된 아스팔트 함량이 수퍼페이브 방법에 의 한 함량보다 0.1$\sim$0.3% 포인트 정도 높게 나타났다. 이것은 마샬 방법이 수퍼페이브 방법보다 아스팔트 함량을 높게 결정되도록 골재입도가 주어졌기 때문인데 이것이 소성변형에 상대적으로 취약한 직접적인 원인이 되는지는 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것이다.

In view of the increasing utility of concrete as a construction material, the major challenge is to improve the quality of construction. Nowadays the common problem faced by many of the concrete plants is the shortage of river sand as fine aggregate material. This led to the utilization of locally available materials from quarries as fine aggregate. With the percentage of fines present in Crushed Rock Fines (CRF)or crushed sand is more compared to river sand, it shows a better performance in terms of fresh properties. The present study deals with the formulation of SCC mix design based on the chosen plastic viscosity of the mix and the measured plastic viscosity of cement pastes incorporating supplementary cementitious materials with CRF and river sand as a fine aggregate. Four different combinations including two binary and one ternary mix are adopted for the current study. Influence of plastic viscosity of the mix on the fresh and hardened properties are investigated for SCC mixes with varying water to cement ratios. It is observed that for an increasing plastic viscosity of the mix, slump flow, T500 and J-ring spread increased but V-funnel and L-box decreased. Compressive, split tensile and flexural strengths decreased with the increase in plastic viscosity.

The purpose of this study is to suggest concrete mix proportioning design using Blast-furnace slag cement. The mix conditions are specified by concrete strength(180~400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$), slump$(15\pm2cm)$m and air volume$(4.5\pm1%)$. From the result of concrete mix proportioning design using Blast-furnace slag cement, unit water content can be reduced by 3~8% comparing with OPC. The relationship between strength at 28days and cement water ratio is as follow. when blast-furnace slag cement is used: $\sigma_{28}$=304.OC/W-296.8. Super-plasticizer have to be used to get a slump of 15cm when water/cement ratio is less than 45%.

In this paper, the properties of high-strength concrete are described with respect to materials and mix conditions(water-cement ratio, chemical admixture, replacement of fly ash). As primary purposes of this study, the optimum mix design method of high-strength concrete to decrease unit cement contents is investigated, and the properties of fresh and hardened concretes are tested in terms of slump, air content and compressive strength. As results of this study, workability and strength development of the high-strength concrete depend on the water-cement ratio, replacement ratio of fly ash and dosage of the chemical admixture. The conditions which are proposed optimum mix design of the high-strength concrete show W/C 37%, S/A 42~45% and unit cement content 470~480kg/$\textrm{m}^3$. Based on the results, the applicability of high-strength concrete in site is clearly proved.

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.

Grading of aggregate influences significantly almost all of the concrete performances. The purpose of this paper is to propose practicable equations that express the optimized total aggregate gradation, by weight or by number of particles in a concrete mix. The principle is based on the fractal feature of the grading of combined aggregate in a solid skeleton of concrete. Therefore, equations are derived based on the so-called fractal dimension of the grain size distribution of aggregates. Obtained model was then applied in such a way a correlation between some properties of the dry concrete mix and the fractal dimension of the aggregate gradation has been built. This demonstrates that the parameter fractal dimension is an efficacious tool to establish a unified model to study the solid phase of concrete in order to design aggregate gradation to meet certain requirements or even to predict some characteristics of the dry concrete mixture.

Prepacked concrete has recently been used in the special constructions fields such as underwater concrete work, heavy-weight concrete work, underground structure work, partial repair works for damaged reinforced concrete structures. and polymer-modified mortars have been employed as grouting mortars for the prepacked concrete. The purpose of this study is to recommend the optimum mix design of polymer-modified grouting mortars for prepacked concrete. Polymer-modified mortars using SBR and EVA emulsions as admixture of grouting mortars for prepacked concrete are prepared with various mix proportions such as sand-binder ratio, fly ash replacement ratio, polymer-binder ratio. and tested for flowability, viscosity of grouting mortars, bleeding ratio, expansion ratio, flexural and compressive strengths of grouting mortars and compressive and tensile strengths of prepacked concretes. From the test results, it is apparent that polymer-modified mortars can be produced as grouting mortars when proper mix design is chosen. We can design the mix proportions of high strength mortars for prepacked concrete according to the control of mix design factors such as type of polymer, polymer-binder ratio, sand-binder ratio and fly ash replacement ratio. Water-binder ratio of plain mortars for a constant flowability value are in the ranges of 43% to 50%. SBR-modified mortar has a little water-binder ratios compared to those of plain mortar, however, EVA-modified mortar needs a high water-binder ratio due to a high viscosity of polymer dispersion. The expansion and bleeding ratios of grouting mortars are also controlled in the proper value ranges. Polymer-modified grouting mortars have good flexural. compressive and tensile strengths, are not affected with various properties with increasing fly ash replacement to cement and binder-sand ratio. In this study, SBR-modified grouting mortar with a polymer-binder ratio of 10% or less, a fly ash replacement of 10% to cement and a sand-binder ratio of 1.5 is recommended as a grouting mortar for prepacked concrete.
