In this work, the hydration behaviour of portland cement pastes containing fly ash, blast-furnace slag and silica fume is investigated by Impedance Spectroscopy(IS). As fly ash or blast-furnace slag was added to portland cement, the values of R$_{t(s+1)}$ and R$_{t(s+1)}$ were decreased in the early hydration period. It showed that hydration of cement containing blending components was slower than it of the reference cement paste with the same W/C ratio. However, the cement paste containing silica fume had a large value of R$_{t(s+1)}$ and R$_{t(int)}$due to very rapid pozzolanic reactivity of silica fume in the hydration time. In OPC-fly ash system, a characteristic plateau region appeared between straight-line and semicircle. The plateau region continued to grow in range with the content of fly ash and the hydration time.

The utilization of metakaoline as a mineral admixture for cement has received considerable attention in recent years. This paper investigates the rheological properties of cement pastes containing metakaoline in view of fluidity. The rheology of the paste is assessed by using a BROOKFIELD RVDV II + viscometer (SC4-21, 29) having cylindrical spindle. The results show the fluidity of cement pastes with metakaoline is increased by increasing W/S ratio and the dosage of superplastcizer. And also cement pastes with metakaoline as a partial replacement of cement show a dilatant behavior. Dilatancy is heavily influenced by W/S ratio and by the amount of metakaoline. However the thixotropy of the pastes is increased by silica fume.

This report presents the results of an investigation on the fundamental properties of mortars high fluidity high volume slag cement(HVSC) activated with sodium silicate($Na_2SiO_3$). The ordinary Portland cement(OPC) was replaced by ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBFS) from 40% to 80% and calcium sulfoaluminate(CSA) was 2.5% or 5.0% mass. The $Na_2SiO_3$ was added at 2% and 4% by total binder(OPC+GGBFS+CSA) weight. A constant water-to-binder ratio(w/b)=0.35 was used for all mixtures. The research carried out the mini slump, V-funnel, setting time, compressive strength and drying shrinkage. The experimental results showed that the contents of superplasticizer, V-funnel, setting time and drying shrinkage increased as the contents of CSA and $Na_2SiO_3$ increase. The compressive strength increases with and an increase in CSA and $Na_2SiO_3$. One of the major reason for these results is the accelerated reactivity of GGBFS with CSA and $Na_2SiO_3$. The maximum performance was CSA 5.0% + $Na_2SiO_3$ 4% specimens.

In this study, for improving of concrete properties, those are used ground granulated blast slag(GGBS) and fly ash(FA). There are some advantage to add the GGBS and FA in plain concrete. The objective of this study is to find the characteristics of fresh and hardened antiwashout underwater concrete which is followed by blended ratio of GGBS and FA. Experimental parameters were chosen that W/C was 50%, S/a was 40% and as the blended ratio of GGBS was set at 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60% and FA was set at 0, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35% in order to prove the properties of antiwashout underwater concrete can be changed by blended ratio of GGBS md FA. It was measured pH, suspension and slump flow of fresh antiwashout underwater concrete and compressive strength of hardened antiwashout underwater concrete in age of 7 days, 28 days and 56 days. The experimental results of fresh concrete show that pH, suspension and slump flow were all satisfied with KSCE (Korea Society of Civil Engineering) standard value and mix design standard value. To synthetically consider, the optimum blended ratio is about 30% of GGBS and FA.

For recycling of waste foundry sands, researchers recently try to recycle them rather than depend on reclamation, and are studying on how to combine waste foundry sands with cement and use them for various kinds of construction material as the effective recycling method of waste foundry sand. In this research, The ways to find the proper replacement rate of waste foundry sands and to make use of them were suggested through the experiments on the range to apply waste foundry sands with two levels of 1:3 mixture rate of W/C 43% and 50%. The research result showed that in terms of liquidity as the characteristic of unhardened mortar, as the replacement rate of waste foundry sands increased, its flow tended to decrease. The amount of air also displayed a similar tendency to that of liquidity in that the higher the replacement rate of waste foundry sands became, the lower it became. With regard to the solidity trait of hardened mortar, it increased when the waste foundry sands were replaced more, and the replacement of waste foundry sands caused increased initial solidity. As for the amount of water permeated and that of water absorbed as the water tight proofing properties, the amount of permeated water was proved to decrease because of the gap recharge effect by the fine powder of waste foundry sands, and the replacement of waste foundry sands in the structures requiring watertightness is concluded to be very effective.

This study is to performed to find the optimum mix proportion of the high strength and self compacting concrete for the above-ground LNG storage tank construction and field application. If LNG storage tank wall thicknesscan be reduced, the construction cost and quality can be improved by using self-compacting high strength concrete with compressive strength 60~80 MPa. For this purpose, low heat cement (Type IV) and class F fly ash are used in concrete mix to control hydration heat, flowability, and viscosity. Mix design variables of unit water, fly ash replacement ratio, water-binder ratio, and fine aggregate ratio are selected and tested for material properties and manufacturing cost of the concrete. Also, fly ash replacement ratio is considered using confined water ratio test. The test results showed that the optimum mix proportion of the self-compacting high strength concrete characteristics are as follows. 1) In case of the concrete with specified compressive strength of 60 MPa, the optimum mix proportion is fly ash replacement ratio of 20% and water- binder ratio of 27~30%. 2) In case of the concrete with the strength of 80 MPa, the optimum mix proportion is fly ash replacement ratio of 10% and water-binder ratio 25%. But unit water and fine aggregate ratio are 165 $kg/m^3$ and $51{\pm}2%$, respectively, regardless of the traget concrete compressive strength range. Also, test results showed that concrete manufacturing cost of 60 MPa and 80 MPa concrete require additional costs of 14~22% and 33%, respectively, compared to the manufacturing cost of 40 MPa concrete. Therefore, application of the self-compacting high strength concrete has proven to be economical in the perspective of the material cost, quality control, and site management.

This study is aimed to derive the optimum mix proportion of the combined self compacting concrete according to cement types (blast-furnace slag cement and belite cement) and to propose the basic data to field construction work after evaluating the quality properties. Specially, lime stone powder (LSP) as binder and viscosity agent are used in the combined self compacting concrete because slurry wall of an underground LNG storage tank should be kept stability of quality during concrete working. Replacement ratio of LSP is determined by confined water ratio test and main design factors including fine aggregate ratio ($S_r$), coarse aggregate ratio ($G_v$) and water-cement ratio (W/C) are selected. Also, quality properties including setting time, bleeding content, shortening depth and hydration heat on the optimum mix proportion of the combined self compacting concrete according to cement type are compared and analyzed. As test results, the optimum mix proportion of the combined self compacting concrete according to cement type is as followings. 1) Slag cement type-replacement ratio of LSP 13.5%, $S_r$ 47% and W/C 41%. 2) Belite cement type-replacement ratio of LSP 42.7%, Sr 43% and W/C 51%. But optimum coarse aggregate ratio is 53% regardless of cement types. Also, as test results regarding setting time, bleeding content, shortening depth and hydration heat of the combined self compacting concrete by cement type, belite cement type is most stable in the quality properties and is to apply the actual construction work.

Apparent diffusion coefficients of Cl- ions through hardened cement pastes(HCP), which were partly subs¬tituted blast furnace slag, fly ash and silicafume for ordinary Portland cement, were determined. Also. Cl- and OW concentration of pore solutions which were extracted from HCP and the capacities of the HCP to bind CI were determined. Diffusion coefficients of Cl- ions through HCP were increased with water cement ratio(WfC), but decreased with addition of the blending materials. On the contrary, Cl- and OH concentration of the pore solutions were reduced by adding the blending materials.
