The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanical properties of super-workable concrete using O.P.C., blast-furnace slag, and fly ash respectively. For this purpose, after determining the optimum mix proportion of super-workable concrete according to unit weight of binder and percentage of fine aggregate respectively, mechanical properties of super-workable concrete such as compressive, tensile and flexural strength as well as elastic modules were tested and analyzed. Also, the mechanical performances of super-workable concrete were compared with those of high-strength concrete with equal mix proportion of concrete. As a result, super-workable concrete have an excellent mobility, placeability, and segregation-resistance, but the strength of super-workable concrete was shown to be somewhat lower than that of high-strength concrete with equal mix proportion of concrete.

The properties of super-flowing concrete with low heat cement were experimentally investigated and compared with ordinary 25-240-15 concrete with type Vcement. The cement content of super-flowing concrete with the low heat cement was 400 kg/$\textrm{m}^3$. However the hydration heat of super-flowing concrete is relatively lower than that ordinary concrete with type V cement. Also the ability to resist chloride ion penetration of super-flowing concrete with low heat cement is 5 times better than that of the ordinary concrete.

In this study, the properties of super flowing cocrete containing gly ash were experimentally investigated and compared with those of ordinary concrete. Tests were carried out on five types of super flowing concrete mixes containing fly ash and three types of ordinary concrete mixes without fly ash. Flow test, O-funnel test, box test, Ltype thest and slump test were carried out to obtain the properties for the workability of fresh concrete. Compressime strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity. creep and shrinkage test were also obtained as the mechanical properties of hardened concrete. In fresh concrete, it was found that super flowing concrete had excellent workability and flowability compared with ordinary concrete, and the volume ratio of coarse aggregate to concrete volume greatly influenced flowability. Super flowing concrete also had good mechanical properties at both early and late ages with compressive strengths reaching as high as 40 MPa at 28 days. The creep deformation of super flowing concrete investigated were relatively lower than that of ordinary concrete.

The purpose of this experimental research is to produce the super-workable concrete using ordinary portland cement, blast-furnace slag lowder, and fly ash respectively, and investigate mechanical properties of super-workable concrete. For this purpose, after production of super-workable concrete for different unit weights of binder and percentages of fine aggregate, optimum mixing proportion of them was determined, and then mechanical properties of super-workable concrete such as static modulud of elasticity as well as compressive, tensile and flexural strength were tested and analyzed. Also, the mechanical performances of super-workable concrete were compared with those of high-strength concrete has an excellent mobility, compactability and segregation-resistance, but the strength of super-workable concrete is somewhat lower than that of high-strength concrete with equal mixing proportions of concrete.

This Paper Presents field application test results of mass concrete using super retarding agent. The field test was carried out at mat foundation(thickness 1m) of newly constructed information center of Chongju university. Placing lift composed of 2 layers, and each layer is 50cm. Fly ash and flowing method is also applied. Difference of setting time of concrete between with super retarding agent and without super retarding agent is considered. Concrete without super retarding agent is placed at upper layer and with super retarding agent at lower layer According to test results, the reducing method of hydration heat considering difference of setting time with super retarding agent can reduce the highest temperature about 3~4$^{\circ}C$, and delay the peak time about 3~4days. Compressive strength using super retarding agent is somewhat higher than that of normal concrete. Accordingly, super retarding agent does not affect the strength development.

This is a part a study on the development of High-Performance Concrete ; about experimental results from several test methods to estimate workability in fresh concrete and influences of concrete mix design that affects properties of super-flowing concrete. Super-flowing concrete can be filled in a formwork without any vibration because of its excellent workability of passing narrow space and filling complicated shaped mold, new test methods should be used to estimate the workability and rhelogy in super-flowing concrete instead of slump test method in conventional concrete.

Ultra-High-Performance Steel Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (SUPER Concrete) exhibits improved compressive and tensile strengths far superior to those of conventional concrete. These characteristics can significantly reduce the cross sectional area of the member and the anchorage strength of a headed bar is expected to be improved. In this study, the anchorage strengths of headed bars with $4d_b$ or $6d_b$ embedment length were evaluated by simulated exterior beam-column joint tests where the headed bars were used as beam bars and the joints were cast of 120 or 180 MPa SUPER Concrete. In all specimens, the actual yield strengths of the headed bars over 600 MPa were developed. Some headed bars were fractured due to the high anchorage capacity in SUPER Concrete. Therefore, the headed bar with only $4d_b$ embedment length in 120 MPa SUPER Concrete can develop a yield strength of 600 MPa which is the highest design yield strength permitted by the KCI design code. The previous model derived from tests with normal concrete and the current design code underestimate the anchorage capacity of the headed bar anchored in SUPER Concrete. Because the previous model and the current design code do not consider the effects of the high tensile strength of SUPER Concrete. From a regression analysis assuming that the anchorage strength is proportional to $(f_{ck})^{\alpha}$, the model for predicting anchorage strength of headed bars in SUPER Concrete is developed. The average and coefficient of variation of the test-to-prediction values are 1.01 and 5%, respectively.

Recently super-flowing concrete has been developed and used in many construction sites in Japan. It is believed that super-flowing concrete will change the construction method and contribute to the durability of concrete structures. In this study the effect of mix proportion on the flowing characteristics of super-flowing concrete was investigated to establish the mix design method. From the result we have found that self-compactability of super-flowing concrete was greatly affected by the unit gravel volume and paste/gravel volume ratio. Therefore the two parameters can be used in mix design of super flowing concrete.

In this paper, we decribed the basic elements required for the practical usage of super flowing concrete. The flowability and filingability of fresh concrete was measured by using six different testing methods. Also, two actual size members were used for investigating characteristics of the hardened concrete through variious experiments. As the result of the experimentation, the developed super flowing concrete shown high flowability and fillingability good enough for the requirement. Furthermore, inner uniformity of the no-vibrated concrete was verified by testing distribution of aggregates and core cylinders. Therefore, quality control and workability of concrete can be secured by using the super flowing concrete even without vibrating However, it ha been felt that development of easy evaluation methods for the super flowing concrete is in need.

In this paper, setting and strength properties of concrete with contents of super retarding agent are discussed. Gluconic acid and sucrose and used for super retarding agent. According to experimental results, as super retarding agent content increases, slump show to be increased, while air content decrease about 1~2%. In case of setting properties, as super retarding agent content increases, setting time delays considerable. When gluconic acid and sucrose is added about 0.3%, it delays more than 10days. Compressive strength of concrete of concrete with super retarding agent shows to be higher than that without it. Retarding of setting time of concrete using gluconic acid is longer than that using sucrose.
