The objective of this study was to investigate the bond strength properties of antiwashout underwater concrete. The fine aggregate(river sand, blended sand (river sand : sea sand = 1 : 1), condition of cast and cure(sea water, fresh water), and compressive strength of proportion(210kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ ~ 330kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$) were chosen as the experimental parameters. The experimental results show that the underwater segregation resistance was increased, but flowability (slump flow) and air contents were decreased as the compressive strength of proportion increased. Bond strength of antiwashout underwater concrete was similar to plain concrete. From this study, rational analytic formula for the modulus of rupture and bond stress are to be from compressive strength of concrete.

Crystallization phenomena of glasses of fused natural basalt rocks were studied by DTA, X-ray phase analysis, electron microscopy, and other techniques. Crystallization was catalyzed by the addition of either chromite ore or $P_2O_5$, both up to 5 wt %. Various heat treatments were used, and their influences on controlling the microstructures and properties of the products were studied to develop high strength glass-ceramic material of the $CaO-Al_2O_3(Fe_2O_3)-MgO(FeO)-SiO_2$ system from the domestic basalts. Magnetite precipitates were found to be a nucleation initiator in every case of the crystallization. Diopside, anorthite, clinoenstatite and monticellite were identified as silicate crystalline phases contained in the crystallized products. The crystallite size was in the range of 0.1-2.5$\mu\textrm{m}$. The fine crystallites were approximately cubic, but large crystallites were either plate or needle shape. The thermal expansion coefficient, microhardness and modulus of rupture of glass-ceramics were ranged from 78.5 to 81.8$\times$10-7 cm/cm/$^{\circ}C$, from 820 to 930kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$, and from 1800 to 2800kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively.

Domestic three-way catalyst satisfies exhaust gas conversion efficiency or pressure drop etc. but doesn't satisfy thermal durability. Thermal stress analysis for three-way catalyst was performed based on experimental temperature distribution. Thermal safety of three-way catalyst was estimated by safety factor. Aspect ratio variable had the most significant effect on thermal stress. Thickness variable had the least significant effect on thermal stress. Optimal conditions for premature failure prevention of three-way catalyst were as follows : (1) aspect ratio of three-way catalyst : 0.6:1 (2) 2.84mm thick (3) silicon nitride. The safety of Taguchi-optimized three-way catalyst were 4.7 times higher than that of existent three-way catalyst.

There were several numbers of studies on chemically strengthening glass. Most of them were strengthened in molten salt bath below transformation range of glass. Apart from them, this study used solution hydration technique by Autoclave. After determining proper concentration of AgNO3 salt solution, experimental condition varied from 4hrs to 16hrs at relatively low temperature (180, 200, 220$^{\circ}C$). The results showed that the Soda-Lime-Silica glass could be strengthened by diffusion mechanism without influence of water above 15% salt solution. Because of Ag+ ion penetration in glass surface, yellow color appeared and decreased transmittance at visible range. Modulus of rupture was increased with the amount of exchange and brittleness was decreased.

Reaction bonded si-SiC composites were prepared by silicon infiltration technique at temperature of 1$600^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in vaccum atmosphere. The microstructure and mechanical properties of Si-SiC composites were investigated and characterized. UF-15 and SE-10 as SiC powders, phenolic resin and carbon black as carbon source, and metallic silicon powder as molten Si source were used as starting materials. New SiC crystallines nucleatd and grown by reaction of Si and C were detected by TEM and SEM-EDS. The bonding between new and original SiC was found to be strong. But the wetting of SiC by unreacted metallic Si and the rapid grain growth of new SiC decreased density and fracture toughness. Fracture toughness and modulus of rupture of Si-SiC composite were about 3.2 MPa.m1/2 and 480 MPa, respectively.

Following conclusions are made from the detalied research on the relation between the phase change of the petroleum raw cokes after ball milling and the preheat treatment temperature. The petroleum raw cokes species are preheated in the temperature range of 350~45$0^{\circ}C$. At the preheat treatment temperature of 40$0^{\circ}C$ the particles of petroleum raw cokes from ball milling become spheically shape with the almost uniform particle size distribution of 1~5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. At the same temperature, they became low-graphitized with the d0.02 X-ray diffraction index of 3.41$\AA$. The carbon material made from the petroleum raw cokes at 40$0^{\circ}C$ turned out to have the good modulus of rupture about 600kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, with the bulk density around 1.8g/㎤ and the appearent porosity around 8%.

In this study, the tests were performed on a series of reinforced concrete strip specimens to investigate a cracking behavior of reinforced concrete voided slab bridge. Also, the mid-span deflections, the crack widths and failure mode of reinforced concrete strip specimens were studied. It was found that serviceability of cracking and deflection at reinforced concrete voided slab bridge which were constructed and designed under verifying serviceability as design criteria are lower than common reinforced concrete member. On the basis of the experimental results, it is more reasonable concrete to evaluate crack occurring $f_r=2.0\surd{f_{ck}}$ rather than modulus of rupture of concrete, $f_r=0.8\surd{f_{ck}}$

This study was carried out to investigate the strength and technical feasibility of glulam from small diameter Pinus densiflora and Larix kaempferi. Small diameter logs are currently not used in structural laminated beam construction, but it is suggested that its properties may be feasible for this purpose. The glulam combinations were designed with high grade laminae located at outer laminations (face) and low grade laminae located at center laminations. Important problems of finger jointed glulam as a structural beam are the small modulus of rupture (MOR). One solution for this problem Mi to use veneer and solid wood as the face laminae. The MOE values were predicted for each beam from laminae. The results showed that actual beam MOE values exceeded slightly the predicted values. Based on the evaluation and analysis of Pinus and Larix glulam, the maximum load of Larix kaempferi glulam indicated large values. The bending properties of A and E types glulam were superior to others. It is suggested that this small diameter log can be a candidate for structural glulam construction, providing the proper combinations of face laminae.

Fine spinel powder was prepared from the Mg-Al double alkoxide synthesized using magnesium powder, aluminum foil and sec-butyl alcohol. This powder was compared with powder prepared by mixing two commercial alkoxides. The spinelization was started at 50$0^{\circ}C$ and was almost completed at 100$0^{\circ}C$ with a good crystallinity in the double alkoxide system. In mixed alkoxide system, homogeneous spinel powder was not obtained and MgO existed as a second phase because of solubility and hydrolysis rate differences of two alkoxides. The relative density of specimen prepared by double alkoxide was 99% and specimen prepared by mixed alkoxide was 95%. The modulus of rupture of specimens prepared by double alkoxide and mixed alkoxide was 49.9kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$ and 41.6kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$, respectively.

The mechanical and curing properties of short nylon66 fiber reinforced Chloroprene rubber have been investigated as functions of interphase conditions and fiber content. The tensile strength exhibits a dilution effect at a low fiber content in each interphase. It is found that the interphase conditions have an important affect on the dilution ratio and critical fiber content. Double coatings of bonding agent 402 and rubber solution become the best interphase model in this study. The yield strength, tensile modulus, tear strength and fracture toughness at rupture, Jr are significantly improved due to fiber concentration.
