This paper investigate that the effect of the concrete containing mineral admixtures(pozzolanic materials such as fly-ash, ground granulated blast-furnace slag, silica fume and meta kaolin) on the resistance properties to chloride ion invasion. The purposed testing procedure was applied to the concrete added mineral admixtures for $3\sim4$ replacement ratios under W/B ratios ranged from 0.40 to 0.55. Specimens were immersed in $3.6\%$ NaCl solution for 330 days, and penetration depth, water soluble chloride contents and acid soluble chloride contents were measured in 28, 91, 182 and 330 days. Then, diffusion coefficient were calculated using total chloride contents. As a results. the kinds of mineral admixture and replacement ratios had a great effect on the resistance property of the concrete to chloride ion invasion compared with the plain concrete. And the optimal replacement ratios of mineral admixture had a limitation for each admixtures. The amount of acid soluble chloride ions and water soluble chloride ions were varied with the kinds of mineral admixtures and the penetration depth from the concrete skin. Chloride diffusion coefficient of each concretes decreased with the time elapsed. and the diffusion coefficients of the concrete immersed salt water for 330 days had a establishment with the compressive strength measured before immersing.

When superplasticizer is added to manufacture flowing concrete, the base concrete usually needs the adjustment to assure the sufficient fines contained to obtain flowable consistency without excessive bleeding or segregation. However, this may not only increase the cost, but also cause inconvenience in producing the base concrete. In this paper, the experiments are performed on normal base concrete to achieve a segregation-reducing flowing concrete by adding superplasticizer mixed with viscosity agents and AE admixtures. Three kinds of superplasticizer and two kinds of viscosity agent are selected. According to the results, with regard to the performance and cost of the admixtures, melamine type superplasticizer combined with the PEO viscosity agent and AE admixtures at the ratio 1:0.28:0.001 can acquire good quality and reduce the cost in producing the flowing concrete. With proper addition of combined superplasticizer, even though water to cement ratios of the base concrete are different, the segregation-reducing flowing concrete could be also achieved without reproportioning of the base concrete. However, it would be more desirable if the superplasticizer could be adjusted, before it is put into the practical use in order not to cause some other problems, such as rapid rate of slump loss and retarding of setting time.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of mineral admixture' type and replacement ratios on the chloride penetration resistance of concrete which was immersed in the artificial chloride solution. The chloride penetration resistance was evaluated by penetration depth and chloride diffusion coefficient. As a result, all of the mineral admixtures were effective on the chloride penetration resistance of concrete compared to ordinary portland cement only.

This study was performed to investigate the characteristics of workability and strength of the concrete containing admixtures such as silica fume, fly ash, blast furnace slag, and rice husk ash. For this purpose, the workability and the strength of the concrete containing each admixture were tested and analyzed according to the unit weight of binder and the replacement ratio of each admixture.

The steel in concrete structures under the environment of seawater easily corrode as the seawater penetrate into concrete. The purpose of this study is to analysis the properties of chloride diffusion in mortar using mineral admixtures, as a part of study to examine the chloride penetration of concrete. The results show that the chloride diffusion in mortar increased with higher water-cement ratio. In the case of mortar using mineral admixtures the scope of diffusion coefficient$(\times10^{-8}cm^2/sec)$increased SF20(0.9), SG60(3.3), FA20(3.9), and OC(6.1) in order at the same water-cement ratio 50%.

The application of spent liquor(BSL) obtained from alkaline sulfite-anthraquinone cooking of pine bark to cement mortar significantly improved the water-reducing ability and decreased the rate of cement hardening. However, the compressive and flexural strength of BSL addition to cement mortar were lower than that of PLAIN. The application of 0.2% antifoamer to BSL slightly decreased water-reducing ability, but remarkably improved the compressive and flexural strength of cement mortar. On the other hand, BSL decreased the rate of hardening of cement, which exhibited the protperties of the lignosulfonated based retarding water-reducing type. but the setting time of cement could be controlled by addition of Na2CO3 could be used to convert BSL to normal or accelerating concrete admixtures.

Recently, to consider financial and constructive aspect, usage of Admixture, like Blast- Furnace Slag and Fly-Ash, are increased. These mineral admixtures, a by-product of steel industry, have many advantage, to reduce the heat of hydration, increase in ultimate strength, improve workability and etc. But it also reduces early-age strength, so it is prevented from using of Blast-Furnace Slag at cold-weather-concrete. In this study, for the purpose of increasing usage of mineral admixtures, like Blast-Furnace Slag and Fly ash, it is investigated the strength properties of concrete subjected to under low temperature According to this study, if early curing is carried out before having frost damage, the strength of concrete, subjected to frost damage, is recovered. And to consider increasing effect of strength, it is more effective to use of mineral admixtures, especially to use blast furance slag.

In domestic, there are not adequate admixtures for concrete now, so the study on that is required deeply, Accordingly the purpose of this study is to analyze the application possibilities of Natural Zeolite and Mud Stone as admixtures for concrete through comparing the compressive strength prorerties of mortar mixed with imported Silica Fume those mixed with domestic Zeolite and Mud Stone. As the results from this study, the optimum displacement rate of Silica Fume, Zeolite and Mud Stone is 15%, 5~10%, 15% respectively. In Zeolite and Mud Stone, the compressive strength is higher in proportion as the powder is fine. Consequentely, the application possibility the application possibility of Zeolite and Mud Stone is very sufficient as admixtures for concrete.

This study was _ performed of rheological properities for slurry of ultra fine cement using admixtures. An experimental parameter is W/B and superplasticizier ratio and different water-soluble polymers. As a results, it's strongly appeared to rheological properties of slurry as particles ratio, it's know that rheological properities affected by admixtures.

Rapid set accelerators are widely used in tunnel construction, however quality criteria of and dosage are not well established. The density and solid content of admixtures, setting time and compressive strength of paste and mortar with admixtures were investigated to establish the quality criteria. While the early strength of mortar with sodium-silicate, sodium-aluminate and calcium aluminate type admixtures that have high alkali content are very high, but long-term strength are low. Aggregates of shotcrete has to be carefully selected. Sodium-silicate type admixture need longer setting time than the others.
