Recently, because of the increase of management system about waste concrete and the policy of recycling promotion of government, the use of recycled aggregate is rapidly increasing nowadays. But, due to the poverty of quality and the lack of KS standard, the use of recycled fine aggregate is not active. Therefore, it was intended to compare and investigate effects which types of sand and replacement ratio of recycled fine aggregate. As the result of this study, in the case of the recycled replacement ratio of 25$\%$, fresh and engineering properties were higher than those of natural fing aggregates with the exception of durability. Also, because quality according to types of fine aggregate shows the difference between various properties, it was considered that the profound study for this result would be necessary.

The government makes efforts to expand the recycling activities of construction waste soil and to increase the usage of recycled aggregate. Accordingly, it has defined the compulsory usage and quality standard by usage of recycled aggregate. To satisfy these efforts requires both technology to produce recycled aggregate which meets the required quality and companies with the technology. Therefore, it requires to review a current status of facilities at the companies which deal with construction wastes. The companies dealing with construction wastes gradually produce the high quality of recycled aggregate. In particular, companies which has over 3-stage processing system for waste concrete continue to increase and means to remove foreign substances are gradually improved.

For sustainable development in the construction industry, blast furnace slag has been used as a substitute for cement in concrete. In contrast, ferronickel slag, which is the by-product generated during smelting to ferronickel used in the manufacturing of stainless steel and nickel alloys, has a limitation to use as a binder and an aggregate due to its expansive characteristics. Recently, stabilization technology of ferronickel slag has been improved and studies have been carried out to utilize ferronicke slag as fine aggregate in concrete. Therefore, in this study, basic mechanical properties of concrete used in ferronickel slag aggregate was evaluated. The compressive strength (24, 30, 40 MPa) and replacement rate of ferronickel slag aggregate (0, 10, 25, 50%) were considered as experimental variables. As a result of test, concrete replaced fine aggregate with 25% ferronickel slag aggregate showed superior performance in the compressive strength and flexural strength.

The recycled aggregates which were produced from the waste concretes have the disadvantages of inferior properties for natural aggregate. Therefore, in order to reuse the recycled aggregate it must be solved to improve the quality of recycled aggregate. In this study, the quality of recycled aggregate was improved by the surface treatment method using the colloidal silica solution. And, in order to examine the possibility of reusing the surface coated recycled aggregate in constructing concrete structures, we studied the mechanical properties and durability of the concrete using the surface coated recycled aggregates and the other concrete.

Concrete recycling is becoming mandatory rather selective due to depletion of constructional materials and increase of concrete waste. Studies on recycling concrete are conducted in various point of view for long time. However, standard or guideline of many countries for the application of recycled aggregate concrete(RAC) has restrictions such as low replacement rate of coarse aggregate and no fine aggregate allowed due to inferior material properties of recycled aggregate. This study intends to figure out the feasibility of casting natural aggregate concrete(NAC) and RAC separately in a structural member. In making RAC, replacement rate of coarse aggregate was 50, 100% in RAC and treatment of interface of two concretes is introduced. RAC treatment of recycled aggregate or inclusion of additives was not done as it can increase embodied energy of concrete work. Double-shear test with uniformly distributed loading was adopted to evaluate shear strength at the interface of two concretes. After curing it was hard to distinguish interface of two concretes. Experimental result revealed that specimen with higher replacement rate showed higher shear-to-compressive strength ratio, which is possibly attributed to coarse aggregate size and roughness of sheared section. Further study on the effect of various parameters is required and subsequent research activity is on-going.

In this study, earlier analyzed tetrapod, one of an original group of offshore constructions studied for manufacturability of the concrete using the properties of steel making slag aggregate. steel making slag aggregate assessment, RCS and Blast Furnace Slag : the 20 mm air-cooled slag and combinations by 50 %, aggregate properties on the most appropriate for the properties of recycled aggregate concrete optimal mix, and assessing it. Properties of concrete used to be derived are judged as to bury the studies show that the hollowing-out of the RCS, plastic sole use is in the workability of the aggregate, plastic in the 20 mm slag also assessed to be a slight disadvantage, but RCS by mixing air-cooled coarse and 50 percent to 20 percent 50 mm. Thus, steel making slag marine structures using recycled aggregate, in rapid chilled slag or air-cooled slag. The sole use of the aggregate them than to combine the aggregate of concrete. After they satisfy the quality standard quality shall be used will aggregate steel making slag who meet the criteria concrete manufacturing in general or par with the aggregate of concrete. Performance was assessed as to develop a more than that.

The volume of construction waste material from the entire waste material volume in Korea is approximately 47.3% to take the biggest ratio, and from them, the waste concrete takes up approximately 62.8% that recycling is an urgent issue to address. Therefore, the government recommends more diverse and broader facilitation of the recycled aggregate in order to promote recycling the construction waste materials. In addition, when using concrete recycled aggregate in building, building standard such as floor area ratio and building height are being mitigation. The standard is a condition that mitigation the floor area ratio by up to 15% when using up to 25% of concrete recycled aggregate. Therefore, this study reviewed the relaxation of construction of construction standards when using concrete recycled aggregate in order to actively recommend the use of concrete recycled aggregate. And using the recycled coarse aggregate among the recycled aggregate, the appropriate mixing time in the batch plant according to the substitution rate was derived. In addition, using recycled aggregate admixture in order to improve the drying shrinkage, did comparative analysis about physical and mechanical property of concrete.

The recycling of waste concrete is increasing for the environment protection and the shortage of aggregate according to the large scale construction project in Korea. The more manufacturing high quality recycled aggregate is produced, the more waste concrete powder generated from the manufacture process of recycled aggregate, and the consideration about the recycling of waste concrete powder is need. Waste concrete powder was used for the partial replacement of silica powder, which is a main raw material for the manufacture of autoclave foamed concrete. According to the results of research, the slurry density, flow, compressive strength mainly depend on the replacement ratio of particle size and waste concrete powder. At the SEM analysis, the more high-waste concrete powder was the less there are generated tobermorite. But we conclude that it is possible to replace WCP as silica source in the manufacture of the lightweight foamed concrete.

Recently, the reuse of coarse aggregate derived from demolished concrete was introduced into practice with two environmental aspects: protection of natural sources of aggregate and recycling of construction waste. However, recycled aggregate has been used for the very limited application such as subbase material for pavement and constructional filling material because it was considered as low quality constructional materials. In the present study, in order to examine the possibility that recycled aggregate can be used for concrete mixing, we conducted various experimental tests to identify mineralogical, chemical and mechanical properties of recycled aggregate and to determine the workability and mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). The cement paste and mortar contained in recycled aggregate significantly affect the basic mechanical properties of aggregate and the workability and mechanical properties of RAC. However, RCA mixed with the proper replacement ratio of recycled aggregate shows the comparable compressive strength and freeze and thaw resistance to those of normal concrete. Therefore, it is considered that recycled aggregate can be widely used for concrete if the cement paste and mortar can be efficiently removed from recycled aggregate and/or if the effective replacement ratios of recycled aggregate are applied for mixing concrete.
