Waste glass is a global solid waste with huge reserves. The discarded waste glass has caused a series of problems such as resource waste and environmental pollution, so it is urgent to recycle waste glass with high replacement level. Glass powder (GP), as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM), used in cement-based materials has already become one of the important ways to recycle waste glass mainly attributed to its pozzolanic reaction and filling effect, especially to the suppressed ASR expansion. This paper demonstrates an overview of the properties of GP and its effect on the fresh and mechanical properties of cement-based materials. The study found that the influence of GP on the performance of cement-based materials mainly depends on its content, particle size, color and type, curing conditions, and other SCMs. Finally, based on the problems involved in the investigation of concrete containing GP, some corresponding suggestions and efforts are given to further guide the utilization of GP in cement-based materials.

Commonly used concrete in general, consists of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and water. Natural river sand is the most commonly used material as fine aggregate in concrete. One of the important requirements of concrete is that it should be durable under certain conditions of exposure. The durability of concrete is defined as its ability to resist weathering action, chemical attack or any other process of deterioration. Durable concrete will retain its original form, quality and serviceability when exposed to its environment. Deterioration can occur in various forms such as alkali aggregate expansion, freeze-thaw expansion, salt scaling by de-icing salts, shrinkage, attack on the reinforcement due to carbonation, sulphate attack on exposure to ground water, sea water attack and corrosion caused by salts. Addition of admixtures may control these effects. In this paper, an attempt has been made to replace part of fine aggregate by tailing material and part of cement by fly ash to improve the durability of concrete. The various durability tests performed were chemical attack tests such as sulphate attack, chloride attack and acid attack test and water absorption test. The concrete blend with 35% Tailing Material (TM) in place of river sand and 20% Fly Ash (FA) in place of OPC, has exhibited higher durability characteristics.

Energetically-modified material using reject fly ash (RFA), generated from thermal power plants, was manufactured to investigate the effect of the material on the physical and chemical characteristics of cement mortar. In order to modify reject fly ash, a vibration mill was used. Particle size, grain shape, and crystal structure of the ash were analyzed. Then, the compressive strength of the mortar using energetically-modified reject fly ash (ERFA) was measured. Microstructure and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns were also used in the analysis. As the replacement rate of ERFA increased, the value of the compressive strength tended to decrease. However, it was found that the compressive strength values of 7 and 28 days-cured specimens were higher than those of conventional ordinary Portland cement (OPC) mortar with 10 % replacement rate condition.

Accelerators are used to speed up the construction by accelerating the setting time which helps in early removal of formwork thus leading to faster construction rate. Admixtures are used in mortar and concrete during or after mixing to improve certain properties of material which cannot be achieved in conventional cement mortar and concrete. The various industrial by products make nuisance and are hazardous to ecosystem as well. These wastes can be used in the construction industries to reduce the consumption of cement/aggregates, cost; and save the energy and environment by utilising waste and eliminate their disposal problem as well. The effect of calcium nitrate and triethanolamine (TEA) as accelerators and marble powder (MP) as waste material on the various properties of cement paste and mortar has been studied in the present work. The replacement ratio of MP was 0-10% @ 2.5% by weight of cement. The addition of calcium nitrate was 0% and 1%; and variation of addition of TEA was 0-0.1@ 0.025% and 0.1-1.0@ 0.1% by weight of cement. On the basis of setting time, some mix proportions were selected and further investigated. Setting time and soundness of cement paste; compressive strength and microstructure of mortar mix of selected mix proportions were studied experimentally at 3, 7 and 28 days aging. Results showed that use of MP, calcium nitrate, TEA and their combination reduced setting time of cement paste for all the mixes. Addition of calcium nitrate increased the compressive strength at all curing ages while MP and TEA decreased the compressive strength. The mechanism of additives was discussed through scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis of the specimens.

본 연구는 철근콘크리트 구조물의 염해 내구성 향상의 일환으로써, 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트에 실험체별 다른 비율의 칼슘 알루미네이트 시멘트와 합성 CA₂를 혼입하여 혼입 비율에 따른 염소이온 고정능력을 평가하였다. 침지 후 실험체의 물리·화학적 특성을 압축강도, 공극 구조, 수화물 분석으로 염소이온침투깊이를 EPMA를 통하여 고찰하였다. 클링커 조성에 CA가 34%미만일 경우 실험체의 조밀성이나 강도 발현 양상이 구조재료로서 사용 제한이 없을 것이라고 판단되었으며 CAC와 CA₂를 5:5비율로 혼입하여 실험체에 치환한 실험체가 CAC 혹은 CA₂만 치환한 실험체보다 염소이온 침투억제능력 과 AFm상 및 프리델 염 생성이 높은 것으로 확인할 수 있었다. 결과적으로, 시멘트 페이스트 대비 칼슘 알루미네이트 클링커 치환율이 증가함에 따라 일반적으로 염소이온 고정능력이 향상하였고, CA-CA₂비율에 따라 염소이온 고정 능력 및 염소이온 침투억제 능력에 차이가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 실험 범위 내에서 CA-CA₂비율이 39:60이며 시멘트 페이스트 대비 10% 치환한 실험체인 M 10 가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 nano-silica solution(NSS)을 배합수 중량치환방법을 사용한 OPC-slag cement의 특성에 관한 연구이다. 새로운 치환방법은 선행연구들보다 높은 NSS 치환율의 시멘트에 대한 거동을 연구하기 위한 기초 단계이다. NSS는 배합수 중량의 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 그리고 50% 치환하였다. 그 결과 역학적 및 미세구조적 특성이 향상되는 결과를 보였다. 이는 두 가지 원인으로 요약된다. 첫 번째는 NSS를 배합수중량 치환하면 나노 실리카 입자의 균질한 분산작용이 향상된다. 이는 초기 수화작용을 촉진한다. 두 번째는 배합수 보다 밀도가 큰 NSS의 치환은 w/b를 감소시킨다. 이는 치밀한 수화반응물질을 형성시킨다. 새로운 치환방법은 선행연구에서 밝혀진 분말형 나노 실리카 입자를 사용한 결과와 비교하여 역학적과 미세구조 특성의 저하가 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서 사용한 NSS를 배합수 중량 치환한 방법은 OPC-GGBFS cement의 배합에 적용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

With the recent development in construction industry, industrial by-products fly ash(FA) and blast furnace slag(BS) have been used in large quantities as an alternative to cement, as a solution for environmental problems and resource exhaustion. This study analyzed the basic characteristics according to the changes in replacement ratio and mixing ratio of FA and BS in high strength SCMs concrete, from which in turn it sought to find the optimal mixing ratio for high strength concrete The results showed that in unhardened concrete the more the replacement ratio and FA mixing ratio increases the slump flow will increase while amount of air decreases, and setting time is delayed. In hardened concrete the more the replacement ratio and FA mixing ratio increases the more the overall compression strength decreases, but until 28 days of material age the larger of the BS ratio displayed the best compression strength.

Fly ash used as a cement replacement material increases the long term strength and also improves the durability of concrete and mortar. However, the use of fly ash is a little in spite of great benefit. In order to increase the consumption of fly ash, it has to be used as a cement replacement materials in the production of mortar and concrete, and the reduction of early strength development due to the use of fly ash also has to be diminished. In this study, many chemical compounds which accelerate the early strength was investigated. The $Na_2$$SO_4$, $K_2$$SO_4$, Triethanolamine were selected and applied to the production of mortar. It was found that they enhance the early strength development of mortar(1, 3day) and decrease the amount of $Ca(OH)_2$, and also increase the production of ettringite. According to the results of mercury instruction test, the pores ranged from 0.01 $\mu\textrm{m}$ to 5$\mu\textrm{m}$ were decreased and it was also found in the analysis of X ray and SEM that fly ash increases the amount of ettringite at early ages.

Geopolymer binders fascinate the attention of researchers as a replacement to cement binder in conventional concrete. One-ton production of cement releases one ton of carbon-dioxide in the atmosphere. In the replacement of cement by geopolymer material, there are two advantages: one is the reduction of CO₂ in the atmosphere, second is the utilization of Fly ash and Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) are by-products from coal and steel industries. This paper focuses on the mechanical properties of steel fiber reinforced geopolymer concrete. The framework considered in this research work is geopolymer source (Fly ash, GGBFS and crimped steel fibre) and alkaline activator which consists of NaOH and Na₂SiO₃ of molarity 8M. Here the Na₂SiO₃ / NaOH ratio was taken as 2.5. The variables considered in this experimental work include Binder content (360,420 and 450 kg/m³), the proportion of Fly ash and GGBS (70-30, 60-40 and 50-50) for three different grades of Geopolymer concrete (GPC) GPC 20, GPC 40 and GPC 60. The percentage of crimped steel fibres was varied as 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4% and 0.5%. Generally, the inclusion of steel fibres increases the flexural and split tensile strength of Geopolymer concrete. The optimum dosage of steel fibres was found to be 0.4% (by volume fraction).

Waste concrete powder(WCP) has been estimated with a great value-added material as by-product of waste concrete manufactured to fine and coarse aggregate for concrete, because it is able to utilized for cement clinker and concrete admixture. Experimental tests were performed as such plastic viscosity of paste, flow and compressive strength of mortar by surface area of WCP. As a result, flow and 28days compressive strength of mortar was decreased according to increased replacement ratio of WCP as compared to control mortar. Also, plastic viscosity of paste used WCP1 and WCP2 was decreased with increasing replacement ratio, but WCP3 was increased with increasing replacement ratio.
