The property of concrete at different places in mass concrete is affected by the age under the same curing temperature. For more accurate analysis of thermal stress in mass cocnrete, it is necessary to obtain the property of concrete with age and curing temperature. In this study, the effects of curing temperature and age (Maturity) on the development of the property of concrete were investigated by using concrete specimens made with type I cement. The curing temperatures are 23$^{\circ}C$, 5$0^{\circ}C$, and 8$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. As the maturity increases, the strength of concrete was increased. The results obtained experimentlly was compapred with the previous models, and good agreements was obtained.

Six RC pier were tested under a constant axial load and a cyclically reversed horizontal load to investigate the performance of RC piers used in the high strength concrete and the high strength rebar. It is designed with a hollow section according to the Korean Bridge Design Standard. The variables of the test were concrete strength, rebar strength, a ratio of lap splice and a ratio of transvere rebar. The test results show that the performance of a RC Pier; failure mode, crack pattern, maximum load and ductility.

Hybrid Prestressed Precast Concrete System (HPPC system) is a newly developed frame system that can improve the performance of precast concrete (PC) joints by post-tensioning. In particular, the details proposed in this study can reduce the lifting weight of the PC members and eliminate problems caused by cracks in the joints that occur under service loads. This study performed an evaluation on the negative moment performance of full-scaled HPPC girders. The test specimens were cast with or without slabs, with bonded or unbonded tendons, and had different post-tensioned lengths in tensile section. The test results showed that the specimens with slabs had significantly higher stiffness and strength than those without slabs. There were no differences in the flexural behavior between those with bonded or unbonded tendons, and between those with short or long post-tensioned lengths in the negative moment region.

This paper investigates the effects of fiber volume fraction and panel thickness on face damage characteristics of steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) under high-velocity globular projectile impact. The target specimens were prepared with $200{\times}200mm$ prismatic panels with thickness of 30 or 50 mm. All panels were subjected to the impact of a steel projectile with a diameter of 20 mm and velocity of 350 m/s. Specifically, this paper explores the correlation between mechanical properties and face damage characteristics of SFRC panels with different fiber volume fraction and panel thickness. The mechanical properties of SFRC considered in this study included compressive strength, modulus of rupture, and toughness. Test results indicated that the addition of steel fiber significantly improve the impact resistance of conventional concrete panel. The front face damage of SFRC panels decreased with increasing the compressive toughness and rear face damage decreased as the modulus of rupture and flexural toughness increased. To evaluate the damage response of SFRC panels under high-velocity impact, finite element analysis conducted using ABAQUS/Explicit commercial program. The predicted face damage of SFRC panels based on simulation shows well agreement with the experimental result in similar failure mode.
