The chloride ion penetrating into concrete is classified as the fixed chloride ion being bound in reacting to cement hydrate and the free chloride ion having a direct effect on rebar corrosion because being in solution inside porosity of concrete. Therefore, in order to study the diffusion properties of chloride ion, it is needed to evaluate binding chloride ion in concrete. In this study, we tried to give a fundamental information on diffusion of chloride ion in concrete with mineral admixtures through analysis of micro-structure transformations in concrete and effects on binding of chloride ion in cement paste when mixed with fly-ash, blast furnace slag, silica fume etc. which are used to improve durability and permeability of concrete

In the present work appropriate concrete material models have been proposed to predict drying shrinkage and specific creep of High-performance concrete (HPC) using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The ANN models are trained, tested and validated using 106 different experimental measured set of data collected from different literatures. The developed models consist of 12 input parameters which include quantities of ingredients namely ordinary Portland cement, fly ash, silica fume, ground granulated blast-furnace slag, water, and other aggregate to cement ratio, volume to surface area ratio, compressive strength at age of loading, relative humidity, age of drying commencement and age of concrete. The Feed-forward backpropagation networks with Levenberg-Marquardt training function are chosen for proposed ANN models and same implemented on MATLAB platform. The results shows that the proposed ANN models are more rational as well as computationally more efficient to predict time-dependent properties of drying shrinkage and specific creep of HPC with high level accuracy.

If cement can be manufactured with industrial byproducts such as granulated blast furnace slag(GBFS), phosphogypsum(PG), and waste lime(WL) instead of clinker as its counterproposal, there would be many advantages, including maximum use of these industrial byproducts for high value-added resources, conservation of natural resources and energy by omitting the use of clinker, minimized environmental pollution problems caused by $CO_2$ discharge, and reduction of the production cost. This research investigates the chemical resistance of NSC mortar added PG and WL to GBFS as sulfate and alkali activators. The result of experiment of chemical resistance, showed that NSC is very excellent in acid resistance and seawater resistanc. Such a reasons are that the hydrate like CSH gel and ettringite formed dense pore structure of NSC matrix.

This paper focused on development of geopolymer for wood wool ceramic board. Geopolymer can substitude ordinary portland cement and its accelerator of wood wool cement board as inorganic polymer. In this study, what we would obtain geopolymer's properties such as initial setting time(KS L 5108), flow(KS L 5102) and compressive strength of 3days aged(KS L 5105), was less than 1 hour, more than $110\%$, more than 40Mpa. Geopolymer have three essential materials called filler, hardener and geopolymer liquor. So, We applied filler by quartz, hardener by blast furnace slag powder, metakaoline and fly ash, geopolymer liquor by NaOH, KOH and sodium silicate solution. As result of this experiment, what we could obtain best fitted geopolymer's properties such as initial setting time, flow and compressive strength of 3days aged, was 45min, $116\%$ and 43.6Mpa. This result can be applicable to commercial wood wool ceramic board.

This study deal with the effects of ground granulated blast furnace slag (SG) and silica fume (SF) on the mechanical characteristics of pavement concrete made with ordinary portland cement and regulated set cement. Compressive and flexural strengths as well as unit weight of concretes were monitored. From a result of the study, it was found that the SG was effective for development of flexural strength of concretes, but not for development of compressive strength. However, it must be noted that the present study is limited only to the data by the age of 28 days. More data at long-term age should be accumulated for reliability.

The presens study was aimed to investigate the possibility of use of pozzolanic materials such as blast furnace slag, fly ash, paper sludge ash which are produced from industrial wastes, as construction materials. Experiments were undertaken to investigate the properties of concrete bricks and interlocking blocks made with these industrial by-products. As a result, it was found that the concrete bricks and interlocking blocks made with substitute materials have equivalent strength and quality to those of conventional concrete bricks and interlocking blocks made with only cement. Thus, it could be expected that recycling the industrial wastes can reduce manufacturing costs of the cement as well as prevent environmental pollution by the use of the by-products thrown out as wastes to make secondary products of the concrete.

The purpose of this study is to present data for the reusing, reinforcement and estimation of safety of the RC structure damaged by fire, and for the prevention of explosive spalling by checking the character of explosive spalling according to kinds of fine aggregate, admixture and water-cement ratios. The materials used fine aggregates were sea sand, crushed sand and recycled sand, and the admixtures were fly ash and blast-furnace slag. Also the water-cement ratios was 55% and 30.5%. After those were heated respectively for 30 and 60 minutes in accordance with Standard Time-Temperature Curve. And then conditions of explosive spalling were divided into five grades, and characters of explosive spalling were investigated.

This paper investigated the apparent chloride diffusivity of various concretes. Ten mixtures of concrete were initially prepared and tested to estimate diffusion property. The penetration depth and concentration of chloride ion were examined at the same water-binder ration. The binders were composed of normal portland cement, fly ash, ground granulated blast-furnace slag, and silica fume. From the results, it was concluded that using the mineral admixtures had a filling effect on the pore structure of cements matrix due to those pozzoanic reaction with the hydrates of cement, which increases the tortuosity of pore and makes large pore finer. And diffusivity of chloride is following: NPC100 > F10N90 > F30N70 > F20N80 > F20S05 > G30N70 > F10S05 > G30S05 > G30F15 > G50N50.

This study is performed to evaluate theproperties of concrete using industrial wastes such as fly ash, zeolite powder and blast furnace slag powder. Seven types of concrete mixtures are made in this study. Water0reducing admixture and air entaining agent are used for all mixtures. Test results, the hydration evolution amounts are decreased by 2 ∼31 % than that of the normal portland cement and air contents of concrete are decreased by 1 ∼15% and compressive strengths are increased by 2∼10% at the curing age 28 days than that of the normal portland cement concrete. Accordingly, concrete using industrial wastes will greatly improve the properties of concrete.
