Blast furnance slag cement is a cement manufactured with using industrial by-product and it can reduce $CO_2$ by replacing cement when same uit volume concrete is produced. But Blast furnance slag has a short point that early strength of concrete is not good in winter season and it can be used. So, in this study, as long as replacement ratio of Blast furnance slag to original portland cement is under 30%, developed cement, ecoment, improve early strength of concrete and it applied to constructoin site. As a result, it improves 37% in terms of 1-day strength, it reduces 6.7% in terms of $CO_2$ emission when $1m^3$ concrete was produced. The importance and applicability of study wll be expected to increase cosidering global effort and green growth-strategy in country for reducing greenhouse gases.

In this study, the effects of blast furnance slag cement and frost-resistant accelerator on shrinkage properties and shrinkage properties of mortar were examined. As a result, the addition of the frost-resistant accelerator to both OPC and BB has a small effect on the flash properties of mortar and the compressive strength increases from the early ages. In addition, when a frost-resistant accelerator is used in excess of the standard usage amount, it is necessary to examine the relationship of the expansion behavior at the early age, especially, between the compressive strength development and the expansion property. And it was confirmed that the addition of the frost-resistant accelerator tended to increase the shrinkage of mortar using the OPC and BB. With the addition of the frost-resistant accelerator, the amount of pores with a diameter of under the 30nm, especially, the amount of pores with a diameter of 20 to 30nm and the amount of pores with an ink-bottle decrease, and the shrinkage increases. And it is considered that a change in the amount this range of pores has a large effect on the shrinkage property.

Chloride ion diffusion is the most important thing of occuring deterioration in RC structure. According to establish data, the curing time in concrete reduce the chloride ion diffusion coefficient. The purpose of this study is to make clear through experience on the effect of curing time on the chloride ion diffusion coefficient in concrete with Portland cement and ground granulated blast-furnance slag and a propose the standard of chloride ion diffusion coefficient in concrete.

As a cold-weather-concrete construction technique for enhancing the sustainability and improving efficiency of cold-weather construction, the cracking timing, the starting point of deterioration for concrete, due to the shrinkage of the blast furnace slag cement concrete including accelerator was evaluated. As a result, by using blast furnace slag and accelerator, the cracking was developed faster with higher cracking potential under the restrained conditions at constant age and free-shrinkage strain. It can be considered that the results of decreased stress relaxation by creep or increased restraint with increased free-shrinkage strain causes the increased cracking development speed. Hence, it should be considered the necessary of cracking due to the shrinkage when blast furnace slag or accelerator was used for cold-weather construction.

To develop 80MPa-high strength concrete with ternary cement used in OPC, blast-furnance slag, and fly ash, mixing ratio of blast-furnace slag and fly ash was evaluated in material characteristics before and after hardening of the high strength concrete. According to the evaluated results of material characteristics before and after hardening of the high strength concrete, the flowability and long-term compressive strength increase up to 30% mixing ratio of blast-furnace slag and fly ash. Also, it is superior to characteristics of length change and neutralization due to the use of mineral admixture when compared in test sample mixed with OPC. The evaluated results show that material characteristics of the high strength concrete was the most outstanding performance at blast-furnace slag of 25% and fly ash of 15%. The result of this study will be useful for the development of high strength concrete as a substitute of costly silica fume in the near future.

The usage of Ground Granulated Blast Furnance Slag (GGBFS) has been increased recently. Studies on the cement hydration model incorporating GGBFS as well as the properties of cement paste done with GGBFS such as compressive strength, hydration products and hydration heat have been the subjects of many researches. However, studies on the reaction degree of GGBFS that affect the properties of cement paste incorporating GGBFS are lacking globally and specially in Korea. Thus, in this study, the reaction degree of GGBFS using the method if selective dissolution, compressive strength, the amount of chemical bound water and $Ca(OH)_2$ were measured and analysed in accordance with water-binder ratio, replacement ratio of GGBFS, and curing temperature. The results show that the reaction degree of GGBFS, the amount of chemical bound water and $Ca(OH)_2$ in cement paste with GGBFS were higher in conditions where the replacement ratio of GGBFS was low and both water-binder ratio and curing temperature were high. Finally, the reaction degree of GGBFS was achieved at a value between 0.3~0.4.
