In this research, considering the practical situation of separated placing method for mass concrete structure, an efficient method of controlling the heat of hydration is suggested by comparing between the simulated values and actual measurements conducted with the optimum mix design obtained from the various mix conditions with different types and amount of supplementary cementitious materials(SCMs). As the result of the research, firstly, the optimum mix designs for top and bottom layers were determined by Midas gen as OPC to FA of 85 to 15, and OPC to FA to BS of 50 to 20 to 30, respectively. The concrete mixtures prepared with the mix designs determined from the simulation satisfied the target performance range in slump, air content and compressive strength. Additionally, from temperature measurement for the actual mass concrete placed during spring, the maximum temperature difference between surface and core was about $10^{\circ}C$ with 59 and $49^{\circ}C$ for top and bottom layers, respectively, and 1.4 of cracking index was obtained. Therefore, considering the practical conditions of mass concrete construction, it is considered that the different heat of hydration method using different mix designs with SCMs can be an efficient method for controlling thermal cracking and settling cracking of mass concrete.

This research investigates experimentally an effect on the quality performances of the high flowing concrete according to binder types. The purpose of this study is to determine the optimum mix proportion of the high flowing concrete having good flowability, viscosity and no-segregation. For this purpose, two types using belite cement＋lime stone powder(LSP) and furnace slag cement+lime stone powder are selected and tested by design factors including water cement ratio, fine and coarse aggregate volume ratio. As test results of this study, the optimum mix proportion for binder types is as followings. 1) One type based belite cement ; water cement ratio $51^{\circ}C$, fine aggregate volume ratio $43^{\circ}C$ and coarse aggregate volume ratio $53^{\circ}C$, replacement ratio of LSP $42.7^{\circ}C$. 2) Another type based slag cement : water cement ratio $41^{\circ}C$, fine aggregate volume ratio $47^{\circ}C$ and coarse aggregate volume ratio $53^{\circ}C$, replacement ratio of LSP $13.5^{\circ}C$.

When using non KS aggregate muck pile in general, compared to when using KS aggregate, when obtaining an identical slump a high unit quantity of water was confirmed, and when designing the concrete mix the compressive strength of concrete decreased due to an increase in W/B. Therefore because the use of non KS aggregate decreases the liquidity, strength and durability etc. qualities of concrete from an overall performance point of view, there is a need for the used of KS aggregate and when using aggregate that does not adhere to KS standards, it is determined there is a need for appropriate concrete mix design and care.

Geopolymer Concrete is typically proportioned with activator solution leading to moderately high material cost. Such cost can be enduring in high value added applications especially when cost savings can be recognized in terms of reduction in size of the members. Proper material selection and mix proportioning can diminish the material cost. In the present investigation, a total of 27 mixes were arrived considering the mix parameters as liquid-binder ratio, slag content and sodium hydroxide concentration to study the mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete (GPC) mixes such as compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength. The derived statistical Response Surface Methodology is beleaguered to develop cost effective GPC mixes. The estimated responses are not likely to contrast in linear mode with selected variables; a plan was selected to enable the model of any response in a quadratic manner. The results reveals that a fair correlation between the experimental and the predicted strengths.

Recently the study on high flowing concrete which has high workability and Self-compacting is being proceeded actively in the university and corporative laboratory. There are some cases that has been applied to the field. This high flowing concrete has higher fluidity and segregation resistance than Plain of flowing concrete. And it is being focused as a remarkable know-how which can make high-quality concrete and reduction effect of labor force. This properties of high flowing concrete are influenced by the relationship of several factors; binder content, water binder ratio and unit water content. It is the aim of this study to propose reference data at mix design of high flowing concrete, after comparing and analyzing the fluidity and strength properties of high flowing concrete according to water binder content ratio and unit water content.

In most domestic construction fields, excessive cement content has been used because of stubborn official inspection. The purpose of this study is to reduce the cement content of mix proportioning for the decrease of hydration heat, brittleness and drying shrinkage which governs durability of concrete significantly. Parameters includes the compressive strengths, type and dosage rate of chemical and mineral admixtures and types of concrete. It is found that the chemical admixture is efficient to the reduction of cement content for high strength concrete (400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$) and the effectiveness of mineral admixtures in the low strength concrete is somewhat higher than the high strength concrete.

The lining concrete of water tunnel is a structure that is constructed to prevent from corroding of the rock around tunnel and reduce the deterioration of geology by flowing water, and to improve the durability of tunnel, which must not only economy, stability but also satisfy the engeneering properties of concrete. This is an experimental study to analyze th usability of fly in the tunnel lining concrete. For this purpose, after select the mix proportion of plain concrete and concrete using fly ash(the replacement of 15 and 30% by weight of cement) to satisfy slump, air content and compressive strength through the mix design, the test of slump, setting time, compressive strength, tensile strength, drying shrinkage and adiabatic temperature rise was performed. According to test results, it was found that FA 15 concrete was more effective than the others to reduce drying shrinkage as well satisfy other engineering properties.

본 연구는 초유동 콘크리트용 모르타르의 물/결합재비 및 고성능 감수제 첨가율에 따른 상대플로우 면적비와 상대깔대기 속도비의 상관관계를 실험으로 검토한 것이다. 구속수비 실험결과, C급 플라이애쉬>F급 플라이애쉬 > 석회석분순으로 나타났기 때문에 F급 플라이애쉬 및 석회석분은 유동성 개선에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 모르타르 실험결과, 상대플로우 면적비와 상대깔대기 속도비는 고성능 감수제 첨가율이 일정할 경우 물/결합재비의 변화에 따라 원점을 지나는 직선관계로 나타났지만, 물/결합재비가 일정할 경우에는 고성능 감수제 첨가율의 변화에 따라 원점을 지나는 곡선관계로 나타났다. 따라서, 수식화 모델은 Rm= A. m0.4가 합리적이며, 최적값인 ( m .Rm)=(5.1)을 만족하는 배합조건은 플라이애쉬의 경우 치환율 30%, 물/결합재비 83%이며, 석회분의 경우 치환율30%, 물/결합재비 77%로 판명되었다.

This paper presents results of research performed to identify optimum mix proportions for production of flowable fill with high volume fly ash content. The fly ash used in this study met the requirements of KS L 5405 and ASTM C 618 for Class F material. Tests were carried out on concrete designed to have 10 ~ 15kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ compressive strength at the 28-day age with fly ash contents of approximately 280kg/㎥. Slump was held at 25$\pm$1cm for all mixtures produced compressive strengths at 28 days were found to range from 5.03 to 13.69kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

Recently, as to destruction and renovation of aged building, waste concretes have been reclaimed near foreshore and filled up underground. Recycling demolished concrete as aggregate helps to settle economic and environmental problems of obtaining superior aggregates from natural sources and to dispose waste concretes. An experimental study was carried out to investigate the strength characteristics of no-fine concrete containing recycled aggregates. The cement-aggregate weight ratios of 1: 5, 1: 6, 1: 7 and water-cement ratios of 30, 35, 40, 45% were chosen for the mix design of no-fine concretes. The compressive and splitting tensile strength at 7 and 28 days were measured for 12 different mixes. On the basis of test results, the optimum mix proportion of no-fine concrete containing recycled aggregates was determined and applied to the production of retaining wall block.
