The hydration at $23^{\circ}C$ between $Ca(OH)_2$ and siliceous materials with various compositions of silica gel and quartz were studied in paste state, and also diatomite was empolyed as another form of silica. The effect of the structural state of silica on the pozzolanic reactivity was investigated by X-ray, DTA, electron microscopy, and chemical analysis. The results obtained were as follows. (1) The molar ratio of $Ca(OH)_2$ to silica gel(C/Sg) being changed in 0.49, 0.81 and 1.22, the free $Ca(OH)_2$ was disappeared within six hours, three days and two weeks respectively and ill-crystallized CSH(I) was formed. However, in the case fo molar ratio of C/Sg=2.45, almost lime was remained uncombinedly after twenty four weeks yet. (2) Though the molar ratio C/Sg of diatomite was 0.71, the hydration was stabilized at three weeks and the result exhibited very peculiar characteristics from silica gel. (3) Pozzolanic reactivity of quartz was negligible, but $\alpha$-cristobalite in diatomite showed appreciable reactivity. (4) The thermal curves showed the exothermic peaks in the range 830 to $930^{\circ}C$ and lower broad peaks at high temperature in the initial steps of hydration, transfered to lower temperature with sharp peaks by proceeding of hydration. (5) The samples containing more silica gel exhibited higher pozzolanic reactivity and martar strength, but the diatomite gave remarkable result for them and they were matched to the strength development rate.

In this study, as part of a research on the development of economical high-performance concrete with high strength and high quality, the physical properties of high-performance concrete were analyzed by substituting a certain amount of low-cost domestic silica fume exempted from the re-importation type distribution structure of the domestic production and the existing high-priced silica fume distribution structure. Performing tests to identify the physical properties of the fresh and hardened concrete and durability analogy of the concrete which use low-cost domestic silica fume and imported silica fume, the chloride ion penetration resistance test result showed that the strength difference between the low-cost silica fume and the imported silica fume is not big but the strength of the low-cost silica fume was measured higher than the imported silica fume. The chloride ion penetration resistance of all variables was measured as "very low". Since the low-cost domestic silica fume can be used as a high-performance admixture of concrete, the results suggest that it is possible to produce a more economical high-performance concrete.

Rice husk ash (RHA) is classified as a highly reactive pozzolan. It has a very high silica content similar to that of silica fume (SF). Using less-expensive and locally available RHA as a mineral admixture in concrete brings ample benefits to the costs, the technical properties of concrete as well as to the environment. An experimental study of the effect of RHA blending on workability, strength and durability of high performance fine-grained concrete (HPFGC) is presented. The results show that the addition of RHA to HPFGC improved significantly compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and chloride penetration resistance. Interestingly, the ratio of compressive strength to splitting tensile strength of HPFGC was lower than that of ordinary concrete, especially for the concrete made with 20 % RHA. Compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of HPFGC containing RHA was similar and slightly higher, respectively, than for HPFGC containing SF. Chloride penetration resistance of HPFGC containing 10-15 % RHA was comparable with that of HPFGC containing 10 % SF.

In this study, as a material used to replace silica fumes for high strength concrete, nano-silica compound with organic functional group for dispersion and with inorganic silica group that can cause a pozzolan reaction is synthesized, These nano silica compound is divided into IC, which is nano size $SiO_2$ with irregularly combined hydroxyl group and carboxyl group, and RC, which is nano size $SiO_2$ with regularly combined hydroxyl group and carboxyl group. The effects of these nano silica compound on the hydration of cement are reviewed. As a result, all of synthesized nano-silica compounds have excellent dispersion on the cement flow, we think that dispersion property is the effect of air entraining by synthesized nano-silica compounds. The result of the microstructure observation showed that the particle size of the synthesized nano-silica is smaller than silica fume and spread evenly among the cement particles. In initial The phenomenon of strength decreasing occurred due to delayed hydration reaction by the synthesized nano-silica with carboxyl(-COOH) and hydroxyl(-OH) functional group.

Fly ash (called FA hereafter) that results from thermal power plants is a long-term strength improving substance with reactivity to pozzolan and has been used for long. However, large amount of FA shows many advantages such as reduction of hydratio energy, long-term improvement in strength and economic feasibility and also has difficulties from reduction in initial strength and durability. In a preceding study, fine particle cement was applied to test the effects on initial strength. Therefore in this study, the effects of fine particle cement on the quality of FA concrete were reviewed. The results can be summarized as follows. Liquidity was increased by the most at FC substitution ratio of 15%. Air capacity was reduced according to increasing substitution ratio of FA and FC. Compressive strength showed high strength expression at all ages when FC was substituted at 45%. Synthesizing the above results, appropriate mixing of FC in FA concrete can improve liquidity, reduce unit quantity and show improvement in strength. In particular, mixed use of FC seems effective in improving early quality of concrete.

Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) is an ultra high strength and high ductility cement-based composite material and has shown some promise as a new generation concrete in construction field. It is characterized by a silica fume-cement mixture with very low water-binder (w/b) ratio and very dense microstructure, which is formed using various powders such as cement, silica fume and very fine quartz sand (0.15~0.4mm) instead of ordinary coarse aggregate. However, the unit weight of cement in RPC is as high as 900~1,000 kg/㎥ due to the use of very fine sand instead of coarse aggregate, and a large volume of relatively expensive silica fume as a high reactivity pozzolan is also used, which is not produced in Korea and thus must be imported. Since the density of RPC has a heavy weight at 2.5~3.0 g/㎤. In this study, the modified RPC was made by the combination of ternary pozzolanic materials such as blast furnace slag and fly ash, silica fume in order to economically and practically feasible for Korea's situation. The fire resistance and structural behavior of the modified RPC exposed to high temperature were investigated.

For underground structures that are exposed to environmental conditions, the declination of the durability of concrete occurs easily because of leakages from high hydraulic pressure and the frequent contact of water due to environmental factors. Therefore this study is to confirm that the leakage reduction of natural inorgnic powder compound applying subsurface structural weak part and make the performance improvement of concrete as an objective. The test was done by making the rebar, flat tie, nail and film infiltration and each of its water tank and cylindrical test body then after pouring water to each of the test body, the test observe the change of the water tank surface absorbed condition and leakage of each specimen with respect to time. As a conclusion, the test was observed that this water proofing admixture has better watertightness from the beginning of the setting time(when it hardens), the ettringite and the thaumasite generates a large quantity of hydration products that controls the formation in a large opening and the CSH produced by pozzolan reaction makes a dent at this opening.
