Generally, the limestone powder is known to have some advantages in rheology of fresh concrete, resistance of material separation, and enhancement of strength at early ages. Recently, great attention is being paid to limestone blended cements in the manufacture of concrete, especially in the countries of Europe. The purpose of the present study is to establish the mechanical and durable properties of concrete containing slag and limestone powder. In this paper, the chloride ion penetration test, rapid carbonation test and rapid freezing-thawing test is carried out to study durability of concrete with various content of limestone powder. Futhermore, the strength of concrete is evaluated with various ages.

나프탈렌 또는 나프톨을 황산화하고 포름알데히드와 축합 반응시켜 나프탈렌 축합물 및 나프톨 축합물을 합성하였다. 또한, 나프탈렌과 나프톨을 모두 함유하는 공축합물도 합성하였다. 이들 축합물의 확인은 핵자기공명스텍트럼, 적외분광스펙트럼, 자외분광스펙트럼으로 행하였다. 한편 이들 축합물들의 시멘트에 대한 분산성을 예측하기 위하여 시멘트 표면에의 흡착실험을 행하였다. 그 결과 수산기를 함유하는 나프톨 축합물(TSC)>나프탈렌-나프톨공축합물(NSS)의 순으로 시멘트에 대한 흡착율이 증가했다. 위의 결과들로부터 주쇄(main chain)에 나프톨을 함유하는 합성축합물(TCS, NT5)은 시멘트분산제로서의 가능성이 시사되었다.

Corrosion of reinforced concrete structures in marine environment is one of the most important mechanism of deterioration. However, conventional rehabilitation techniques in tidal zone, which consist of removing delaminated areas of concrete, cleaning affected steel and patching with portland cements mortar, have proven to be ineffective for marine structures. Also, repairs are often repeated every several years. The purpose of this report is to announce appropriate repair method of highway bridge damaged by chloride attack in marine environment (application of cathodic protection) using FRP and antiwashout underwater mortar.

Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a relatively easy and minimally invasive procedure used in treating vertebral fractures. However, the procedure has many complications, one of which is bone cement leakage, which happens frequently. Leakage to the paravertebral venous system, in particular, may lead to especially devastating consequences. Here we report a case of a 65-year-old male patient with an intracardiac foreign body (bone cement) that generated a perforation on the right ventricle, and result in hemopericardium after percutaneous vertebroplasty. We performed open heart surgery to remove the foreign body.

The performance characteristics of high-strength and high-performance concrete are discussed in this review. Recent developments in the field of high-performance concrete marked a giant step forward in high-tech construction materials with enhanced durability, high compressive strength and high modulus of elasticity particularly for industrial applications. There is a growing awareness that specifications requiring high compressive strength make sense only when there are specific strength design advantages. HPC today employs blended cements that include silica fume, fly ash and ground granulated blast-furnace slag. In typical formulations, these cementitious materials can exceed 25% of the total cement by weight. Silica fume contributes to strength and durability; and fly ash and slag cement to better finish, decreased permeability, and increased resistance to chemical attack. The influences of various mineral admixtures such as fly ash, silica fume, micro silica, slag etc. on the performance of high-strength concrete are discussed.

Volume changes of soils induced by inorganic acids cause severe foundation and superstructure failures in industrial buildings. This study aimed to assess the potential of fly ash to control volume changes in soils under acidic environment. Two soils such as black cotton soil predominant with montmorillonite and kaolin clay predominant with kaolinite were used for the present investigation. Both soils exhibited an increase in swelling subjected to phosphoric acid contamination. Ion exchange reactions and mineralogical transformations lead to an increase in swelling and a decrease in compressibility in black cotton soil, whereas phosphate adsorption and mineral dissolution lead to an increase in swelling and compressibility in case of kaolin clay. Different percentages of Class F fly ash obtained from Ramagundam national thermal power station were used for soil treatment. Fly ash treatment leads to significant reduction in swelling and compressibility, which is attributed to the formation of aluminum phosphate cements in the presence of phosphoric acid.

The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze the building process and characteristics of Suncheon American missionary compound-missionary dwellings, medical clinics, schools and churches, for the sake of giving fundamental facts to the researcher of this field. The results of the study is summarized as follows. The construction participants of Suncheon missionary architecture are American supervisor- Rev. Preston, Elder Swinehart and Doctor Timmons, Korean christian labors, Chinese masons and Japanese carpenters. The characteristics of architectures are described as the space composition according to American life style, the architectural form of American colonial style. And also the masonry structure using the Korean domestic stones and bricks and imported various materials- such as the cements, timbers, glasses, doors and windows, etc- from the North America.

In recent years, problems of industrial solid wastes appear to be kind of national crises, caused by a sudden increase in their quantities, lack of disposal technique, and public discontent in installing plants for their disposal. This study is designed to investigate that pozzolana-based materials, such as blast furnace slag, fly-ash, paper sludge-ash, which are produced from industries as solid wastes, can be used as construction materials. The variations of concrete strength in function of compositional differences of raw materials including the wastes are studied experimentally. As a result, we find out that the blast furnace slag, the fly-ash, and the paper sludge-ash can be recycled as useful resources for replacement of cements by adjusting their substitution ratio.

The 5 types of cement mortar was immersed in the various chemical solutions for 400 days and then the compressive strength and the length change were measured to consider the chemical resistance at required ages. Due to the effect of flyashe and GGBF slag, the compressive strength of blended cement mortar was higher than that of portland cement mortar at long ages. According to the result of length change, the mineral admixture in blended cement had an indluence on reducing the amount of C3A, the cause of making concrete expand, and it made the formation of cements mortar denser so that the length change was much smaller than that of the portland cement mortar. However, the OPC mortar immersed in Na2SO4 solution for 180 days shows 4 times bigger length change chante than the blended cement mortar.

It is known that cement production not only consumes large amount of energy but also contributes substantially to the green house gas emission. Therefore, there is a demand to develope a new technology to produce energy efficient and environmental conscious cements. The most recent, wood wool ceramic board is being applied in various building material field, for example thermal insulating and acoustic absorption material. This paper focused on improvement of alumino-silicate binder's physical properties for wood wool ceramic board. As the result of this experiment, what we could obtain best fitted alumino-silicate binder's properties such as initial setting time, flow and compressive strength of 3 days aged, was 58min, 110% and 66.0Mpa. This result can be applicable to commercial wood wool ceramic board.
