In this study, we compared a plain mortar with the CAS-system shrinkage compensation mortar for Ondol that is Korean traditional heating system. The Ondol mortar is necessary to have properties as non-crack, fine flatness and stability for thermal changes. especially, mortar'crack prevention is to be most important property in Ondol mortar. To develope the stable material on the crack-prevention, we used to calcium-sulfo-aluminate(CSA)system in shrinkage compensation mortar. And so, we confirmed the effects of calcium-sulfo-aluminate(CSA) system for mortar's physical properties such as setting time, compressive strength and expansion ratio for crack prevention. The initial and final setting time of the CSA mortar is faster than plain mortar about 2hours. And, Compressive strength increased about 20% that plain mortar. The crack length per unit area, plain mortar is 0.426∼0.481m/m2. The Results of apartment construction field test, the shrinkage compensation mortar is excellent about the crack-reduce effect.

This study discusses the fundamental properties of cement mortar with the kinds and adding ratio of stabilizing agent of recycled water. According to the results, fluidity and air content hardly make difference by the kinds and adding ratio of stabilizing agent. When recycled water is used, setting time is shortened slightly in comparison with plain mortar because of an increase of fine particle. And it is similar to the use of recycled water in the case of A, Band D(stabilizing agent), but shortened significantly in the case of C. Also, it does not show difference with variation of the adding ratio, but as the adding ratio increases, it approach to the value of plain mortar. When recycled water is used, compressive strength is similar to plain concrete, and it shows the larger value in order of D, C and A. As the adding ratio of stabilizing agent increases, it decreases at 3days, but increases at 7 and 28days. However, at the adding ratio of 0.5%, it decreases, instead. Length change ratio by drying shrinkage increases in the case of B in comparison with plain mortar, but is similar to plain mortar in the other stabilizing agent. As the adding ratio of stabilizing agent increases, it decreases, however, increases at the adding ratio of 0.5%

To the development on reusing method of the heat-source waste at Daegu Bisan dyeing-complex, this study is aimed to application of it's crushing material (hereafter waste sand) as concrete fine aggregate. The results are as follows; 1. Flow and unit weight of mortar using waste sand as concrete fine aggregate are decreased. 2. At the results of compressive strength test and bending strength test, mortar using waste sand superior to plain mortar within 80％ substitute ratio of waste sand. Because increasing rate of compressive strength is similar through increasing age, waste sand performs as filler's function of no-effect with cement only. 3. At the results of concrete application test, unit weight of concrete using waste sand is similar to plain concrete and compressive strength of concrete is superior to plain likewise the results of mortar test

In this research, our goal was to explore the potential use of cement mortar augmented with liquid red mud. To facilitate this, we neutralized liquid red mud(LR) - exhibiting a pH of 10-12 - using sulfuric acid to yield sulfuric acid neutralized red mud(SR). We then evaluated the flow, setting time, and compressive strength of the cement mortar combined with liquid red mud, while also performing a thorough examination of its chemical properties through X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The flow tests indicated a decrease in flow values for both MS-LR and MS-SR in comparison to the Plain. Analogously, the setting time for MS-LR and MS-SR was found to be abbreviated when juxtaposed with the Plain. With regards to compressive strength, MS-LR demonstrated a surge in strength at the 1-day mark, while MS-SR displayed a diminution at the 1-day and 3-day timepoints compared to the Plain. XRD analysis illustrated that after 28 days, the XRD patterns of Plain and MS-SR bore significant resemblance, though a new peak was detected in MS-LR. SEM imagery highlighted that the microstructures of Plain and MS-SR were alike, but MS-LR manifested a distinct microstructure, characterized by a finely fibrous formation. Based on these observations, we infer that the replacement of cement mortar with liquid red mud neutralized with sulfuric acid contributes to a noticeable enhancement in strength, thereby verifying its suitability for this application.

This study investigated the fundamental properties and cracking shapes of mortar for the floor after Mock-up test with FRP as wastes of crafts. For the flowability of fresh mortar without FRP, it was favorable compared with fresh mortar using FRP, and the drop time at O-Lot was similar to the flowability. For the compressive strength of fresh mortar with FRP, it was increased about 10% compared with plain. The flexible strength was also increased on fresh mortar with FRP. On the cracking shape, there was many penetrated crack in all directions on plain. In the case that FRP was used, it seemed to have excellent resistance to the crack occurrence because there was no directive crack at a limited part.

The objection of this study is to investigate the properties of cement mortar with the kinds and addition of expansive additives. 3 kinds of expansive additives produced in our country and 0, 5, 10, 15, 20% of ratio of addition rate are selected for this experiment. According to experimental results, flow of cement mortar with expansive additives is nearly same with flow of plain mortar and compressive strength, tensile strength, bend strength of cement mortar with expansive additives at 28 days is higher than that of plain mortar.

This study is an experimental study on the properties and efficiency of mold-prevention mortar and the results are summarized as following. The flow, compressive stress, and the drying shrinkage ratio of mold-prevention mortar was similar with plain, so it was shown that the mold-prevention does not influence physical effect specially. However, the mold-prevention mortar which even mixed with few mold, the mold-prevention capacity greatly increased. Also, the mold-prevention capacity of 1:4 ratio mortar was better than 1:2 ratio mortar.

Approximately 240,000 tons of waste shells are produced annually in the south and west coast of South Korea. Some of these waste shells (oyster, cockle) are recycled as seeding collector and fertilizer, but most are dumped illegally near the coast. One of the alternative solutions that can economically utilize a large amount of these waste shells is to apply them to the production of construction materials. In this research, the basic physical properties of waste shells such as oyster, cockle, clam, manila clam were investigated, and were used to prepare cement mortar with a 25% replacement ratio of sand. According to the results, the 28 day compressive strength of cement mortar with cockle and manila clam shells was similar to that of plain cement mortar. The compressive strength decreased by about 18% when clam was used. However, the cement mortar with oyster shell showed about a 35% reduction in 28-day compressive strength, and two times the absorption capacity of plain cement mortar. The reduction in compressive strength and the increase in absorption capacity were mostly associated with the porous nature of the oyster shell.

In this study, an antibiosis of antimicrobial mortar developed to reduce biochemical corrosion of sewage facilities concrete was evaluated. First, artificial acceleration test reflecting similarly biochemical corrosion of mortar was developed. Antimicrobial mortar specimen were experimented in this test and antibiosis of it was evaluated by SEM and EDX. As a results of the study, sulfur-oxidizing bacteria on the plain specimen were survived for 20 weeks in this test. But sulfur-oxidizing bacteria on antimicrobial specimen were survived less than the plain, and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria were externally distorted and destroyed. So the antibiosis of an antimicrobial mortar was verified by it.

The purpose of this study is to design the basic mix proportions of antiwashout underwater polymer cement mortar as a repair material. The antiwashout underwater polymer cement mortars are prepared with various mix proportions using three type polymer dispersions without or with antifoamer. From the test results, the whole antiwashout underwater polymer cement mortars can be cast underwater without segregation like plain mortar. It is apparent that the flexural strength of antiwashout underwater SBR cement mortars with antifoamer at polymer- cement ratios of 5% and 10% is higher than that of plain mortar irregardless of a little low compressive strength.
