순환골재를 사용한 콘크리트에서 플라이애쉬, 하소시킨 슬래그 미분말 및 규조분말이 콘크리트의 내화학약품성에 미치는 영향을 실험을 통해 검토하였다. 본 연구에서는 밀도 $2.48g/cm^3$, 흡수율 4.25%이고 표준입도 범위의 순환굵은골재를 사용한 콘크리트에 대하여 10% 농도의 $Na_2SO_4$ 및 $CaCl_2$의 용액에 6개월 침지한 화학약품에 대한 저항성시험을 실시하였다. 이 침지시험에서 플라이애쉬, 하소시킨 슬래그 미분말 및 규조분말을 혼합한 경우가 이들을 사용하지 않은 경우에 비하여 $0.02{\mu}m$ 이상의 공극량이 감소하는 경향이 나타났기 때문에 포졸란 재료의 사용은 순환골재 콘크리트의 화학약품 저항성 증진에 도움이 되는 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 물-결합재비 20%를 가지는 고강도 고함량 고로슬래그 혼합 시멘트 페이스트의 유동성, 수화열, 응결시간 그리고 강도 발현 특성, 수화 및 포졸란 반응 특성 등을 실험을 통해 관찰하고, 이를 통해 고로슬래그 미분말의 치환률과 분말도가 수화 및 포졸란 반응에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면 물-결합재비가 낮은 고강도 배합에서는 고로슬래그 미분말로 시멘트를 대체함으로써 시멘트와 결합하는 자유수가 상대적으로 증가하는 dilution effect에 의해 시멘트의 초기 수화가 촉진되어 재령 3일부터 28일까지의 초기 강도는 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트만을 사용한 배합보다 더 높게 나타났다. 반면, 재령이 증가하면서 수화반응속도가 급격히 낮아지고, 고로슬래그 미분말로 시멘트를 대량 치환함에 따라 수산화칼슘이 충분히 공급되지 못하므로 포졸란 반응도가 낮아져 장기강도의 발현이 억제되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 고로슬래그의 분말도가 높으면 자유수를 더 많이 흡착함으로써 유동성이 저하되고 수화도가 낮아져 강도가 오히려 저하되는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 보통 강도 콘크리트와는 다른 경향을 나타내는 것으로 향후 콘크리트 배합에 대해 추가 검증이 필요하며, 고로슬래그 미분말을 대량 혼합한 고강도 콘크리트의 개발을 위해서는 장기 강도의 발현율을 더 높일 수 있는 방안에 대한 연구가 필요하다.

DSP technique was applied to improve the high strength characteristics of hardened cement paste using pozzolan materials as blending materials, and pozzolan reactivity was investigated. Pozzolanic materials such as diatomaceous earth, fly ash and hydrated silica were used as blending material. And also superplasticizer was added to cement for molding the specimens. After curing for 60 days, the specimens substituted with 10 and 15 wt% of diatomaceous earth showed better strength characteristics than the specimen with fly ash. The specimen substituted 7 wt.% of hydrated silica exhibited excellent strength with above 800 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

In the recent years, the use of agricultural waste in green cement mortar and concrete production has attracted considerable attention because of potential saving in the large areas of landfills and potential enhancement on the performance of mortar. In this research, microparticles of palm oil fuel ash (POFA) obtained from a multistage thermal and mechanical treatment processes of raw POFA originating from palm oil mill was utilized as a pozzolanic material to produce high-performance cement mortar (HPCM). POFA was used as a partial replacement material to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) at replacement levels of 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40% by volume. Sand with particle size smaller than 300 ㎛ was used to enhance the performance of the HPCM. The HPCM mixes were tested for workability, compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV), porosity and absorption. The results portray that the incorporation of micro POFA in HPCMs led to a slight reduction in the compressive strength. At 40% replacement level, the compressive strength was 87.4 MPa at 28 days which is suitable for many high strength applications. Although adding POFA to the cement mixtures harmed the absorption and porosity, those properties were very low at 3.4% and 11.5% respectively at a 40% POFA replacement ratio and after 28 days of curing. The HPCM mixtures containing POFA exhibited greater increase in strength and UPV as well as greater reduction in absorption and porosity than the control OPC mortar from 7 to 28 days of curing age, as a result of the pozzolanic reaction of POFA. Micro POFA with finely graded sand resulted in a dense and high strength cement mortar due to the pozzolanic reaction and increased packing effect. Therefore, it is demonstrated that the POFA could be used with high replacement ratios as a pozzolanic material to produce HPCM.

Self compacting concrete (SCC) has good flowability, passability and segregation resistance because of voluminous cementitious material & high coarse aggregate to fine aggregate ratio, and high free water availability. But these factors make it highly susceptible to shrinkage. Fibers are known to reduce shrinkage in concrete mixes. Until now for conserving cement, only pozzolanic materials are admixed in concrete to yield a SCC. Hence, this study compares the use of wollastonite micro fiber (WMF), a cheap pozzolanic easily processed raw mineral fiber, and flyash in yielding economical SCC for rigid pavement. Microsilica was used as a complimentary material with both admixtures. Since WMF has large surface area ($827m^2/kg$), is acicular in nature; therefore its use in yielding SCC was dubious. Binary and ternary mixes were constituted for WMF and flyash, respectively. Paste mixes were tested for compatibility with superplasticizer and trials were performed on a normal concrete mix of flexural strength 4.5 MPa to yield SCC. Flexural strength test and restrained shrinkage test were performed on those mixes, which qualified self compacting criteria. Results revealed that WMF admixed pastes have high water demand, and comparable setting times to flyash mixes. Workability tests showed that 20% WMF with microsilica (5-7.5%) is efficient enough in achieving SCC and higher flexural strength than normal concrete at 90 days. Also, stress rate due to shrinkage was lesser and time duration for final strain was higher in WMF admixed SCC which encourages its use in yielding a SCC than pozzolanic materials.

In this paper an experimental study of the influence of hot springs curing upon concrete properties was carried out. The primary variables of the investigation include water-to-binder ratio (W/B), pozzolanic material content and curing condition. Three types of hot springs, in the range $40-90^{\circ}C$, derived from different regions in Taiwan were adopted for laboratory testing of concrete curing. In addition, to compare with the laboratory results, compressive strength and durability of practical concrete were conducted in a tunnel construction site. The experimental results indicate that when concrete comprising pozzolanic materials was cured by a hot spring with high temperature, its compressive strength increased rapidly in the early ages due to high temperature and chloride ions. In the later ages, the trend of strength development decreased obviously and the strength was even lower than that of the standard cured one. The results of durability test show that concrete containing 30-40% Portland cement replacement by pozzolanic materials and with W/B lower than 0.5 was cured in a hot spring environment, then it had sufficient durability to prevent steel corrosion. Similar to the laboratory results, the cast-inplace concrete in a hot spring had a compressive strength growing rapidly at the earlier age and slowly at the later age. The results of electric resistance and permeability tests also show that concrete in a hot spring had higher durability than those cured in air. In addition, there was no neutralization reaction being observed after the 360-day neutralization test. This study demonstrates that the concrete with enough compressive strength and durability is suitable for the cast-in-place structure being used in hot spring areas.

본 연구에서는 천연재료인 황토의 활용성을 넓히기 위해, 황토를 혼화재로 사용한 경우 혼화재 종류 및 황토 대체율에 따른 콘크리트의 기초물성을 비교.검토하였다. 연구 결과, 황토를 사용할 경우 유동성은 다소 저하하는 것으로 나타났으며, 혼화재를 대체하지 않은 콘크리트에 비해 공기량도 다소 저하하는 것으로 나타나, 고성능 감수제의 선택성 및 AE제의 사용에 의한 공기량 보정이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 황토와 시멘트간의 포졸란반응에 의한 강도발현성상을 검토한 결과, 황토를 콘크리트용 혼화재로서 사용하기 위해서는 가열에 의한 활성화공정이 필요한 것으로 나타났으며, 활성황토를 콘크리트용 혼화재료로 사용할 경우 활발한 포졸란반응에 의해 압축 강도 발현이 플레인콘크리트보다 높게 나타나, 건설 신재료로서의 황토의 개발이 가능할 것으로 사료된다. 활성황토의 대체율에 따른 콘크리트의 특성은 대체율이 증가할수록 강도발현수준이 높게 나타났으나, 대체율 30%의 경우 무혼입에 비해 강도가 저하하는 것으로 나타나, 활성황토의 적정 대체율에 대한 보다 심도 있는 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료되며, 본 연구의 범위에서 활성황토의 적정 대체율의 범위는 10~20%내외에 존재할 것으로 사료된다.

The tailings piled in abandoned mines are well-known potential sources of soil contamination. Hydrated limes were applied as cementing materials to solidify heavy metal contaminated tailings for the purpose of reducing their toxicity and migration rates. The optimum mixing ratio of tailings, hydrated lime, and water was determined through a preliminary test. The mixtures of mine tailings and hydrated lime solidified through pozzolanic reaction were tested for their durability against repeated freezing and thawing processes. After repeated freezing and thawing, the uniaxial compressive strengths of all the solidified mixture specimens decreased in comparison with those before test but still higher than $3.5kgf/cm^2$, the standard recommended for land reclamation solids by EPA(Environmental Protection Agency), which suggested that hydrated lime be a potential material to treat the abandoned mine tailings for the environmental purpose.

Palm oil fuel ash (POFA) is a newly emerging pozzolanic material having high amount of silica content. Various forms of POFA were used in cement-based materials (CBMs) in replacement of cement in different dosages of low and high volume. Although, there are many researches on POFA to be used in concrete and mortar, however, this material was not practically used in the construction industry. Engineers and designers need to be confident to use any new developed materials by knowing all engineering properties at short and long terms. As durability concern, concrete pH value is one of the most important properties. Portland cement produces are alkaline initially, however, it may be reduced due to aging and its components. It is believed that by incorporation of supplementary cementitious materials in CBMs the pH value reduces due to utilization of Ca(OH)₂ in pozzolanic reaction. This study is the first attempts to understand the pH value of mortars containing up to 30% POFA under different curing conditions and its changes with time. The results were also compared with the pH of ground granulated ballast furnace slag (GGBFS) and fly ash (FA) content mortars. In addition, the compressive strength of different mortars under different curing conditions were also studied. The results showed that the pH value of control mix (without cementitious materials) was more than all the blended cement mortars indifferent curing conditions at the same ages. However, there was a reducing trend in the pH value of all mortar mixes containing POFA.

The disadvantage of PMM's (polymer-modified mortars) that are currently on the market is the utilization of expensive polymer additives and also the cost of the other components. One of the possibilities how to decrease this price is the effective utilization of waste materials which are very inexpensive in spite of their good properties. The combinations of different degree in polymer adhesiveness and waste secondary raw materials - fly ash - are experimentally verified in the paper. The use of fly ash in adhesive materials for ceramic tiles is limited by unsatisfactory initial adhesiveness to sintered ceramic sherd as a result of a running pozzolanic reaction that lowers the efficiency of polymer additives. On the other hand, the use of adhesive and backfill coating materials for gluing ETICS board insulation materials has brought very good results.
