The ultra high strength concrete classed 80 MPa for Lotte Town at pusan has many hydrated materials due to low water to binder ratio and high admixture contents and improved void structure caused by C-S-H gel corresponding to pozzolan and latent hydraulicity of FA and BS. Moreover, durability of the concrete is superior because there was no penetration of carbon dioxide, chloride and chloric ion caused by its fine internal constitution.

In this Study, we manufactured the 70, 100MPa grade high strength concrete with the land sand by batcher plant in the field. In order to verify attainment of design compressive strength and the durability of the manufactured concretes we examined the tests such as compressive strength test, freeze-thaw test, carbonation test, test for concrete's ability to resist chloride ion penetration.

Polypropylene fiber reinforced mortar and concrete as civil material or architectural material have been used in America and British etc, and have been researched. Polypropylene fibers have many advantages in many points ; in economical costs, chemical stability and durability. It has been reported that polypropylene fiber can control restrained tensile stresses and cracks and increase toughness, resistance to impact, corrosion, fatigue and durability. This study has been performed to obtain the properties of polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete such as compressive strength, flexural strength, toughness, slump, drying shrinkage crack and drying shrinkage characteristics. The test variables are fiber contents, fiber length, fiber types, and so on. From the results of this study, we can expect the effects of the admixtures of polypropylene fiber about strength and drying shrinkage properties in concrete and mortar.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the fundamental data of durability which effects on the Carbonation of concrete by adding various admixture additives. Thus, We have experimented the accelerated test on the concrete blending which was admixed by blast furnace slag, fly-ash, silica fume , durability amelioration and it was cured 7weeks after twenty eight days water curing. The result of this experiment is that Carbonation speed increased extremely when water cement ratio went up, and by growing of replace cement ratio of admixture additives. The specimen which was added fly-ash, blast furnace slag, silica fume has the faster Carbonation speed than the specimen which was not added admixture additives. All of these specimen, fly-ash has the fastest progress speed.

Recycled aggregates were generated when concrete structures were dismembered. However, in concrete structures, because of durability, strength and toughness, recycled aggregates don't use generally. This study was done to use recycled aggregate in concrete structures. Problems of durability, strength, and toughness were caused troubles, when recycled aggregates were used, were solved as steel fibers and additives were added. Of course, steel fiber length, steel fiber contents, additive substitution, and recycled aggregate substitution were variables of this study. After flexural specimens($15{\times}15{\times}70cm$) with notch(45mm) were fabricated, basic strength tests were done and toughness was estimated using fracture mechanics parameters. The results suggest that JIC is a promising fracture criterion for all of these, while KIC(or GIC) almost certainly are not.

As the importance of maintenance of reinforced concrete structure recently has emerged, the attention of durability of structure has been increasing. There are many studies about durability decline especially due to the carbonation. In order to study carbonation progress after surface repair of carbonated concrete, each carbonation penetration velocity from different repair materials of concrete structure is compared through the experiment of carbonation accelerating CO2 concentration to 100%. As carbonation infiltration progress is predicted through this study, the counterplan of service life evaluation will be prepared on selection of repair materials of concrete structure.

In the case of concrete structures which have been recently exposed to the marine environment, durability is greatly reduced by the freezing-thawing action. When it is used by appropriately replacing the ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBS) that is a industrial by-product, the concrete structure of marine environment is known to have a durability to freezing-thawing resistance. In this experiment, micropore in accordance with a replacement ratio of GGBS was confirmed to show different results respectively. The freeze-thaw resistance was showed different aspects respectively because it is different the amount of water in the pore due to the difference of micropore. Therefore, in this study, the freezing-thawing resistance of sea water by variation of micropores of slag concrete had been evaluated.

Lack of fine aggregate is adversely affecting the quality of concrete. Due to lack of land sand, EZZ sea sand has been used. However, the use of sea sand is also difficult because of the opposition of fishermen. The purpose of this study was to analysis the effect of slag fine aggregate to durability and compressive strength of concrete. The concrete compressive strength and durability were assessed to derive a proper mix ratio of fine aggregate.

This paper presents the results of a study on binary blends of Portland cement and fly ash with complex admixture used for the concrete structures to meet specific performance objectives in east coastal area of China. The concretes were evaluated for workability, strength, water permeability, drying shrinkage, sulfate resistance and electrical resistance. Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (ESEM) was used to examine the microstructure of concrete made by complex admixture compared with control batches without complex admixture. The combined efforts of fly ash and complex admixture led to an improvement in the workability, strength and durability.

One of the most prevalent causes of reinforced concrete (RC) structural deterioration is chloride-induced corrosion. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive insight into the environmental effect of RC's chloride ingress process. The first step is to investigate how relative humidity, temperature, and wind influence chloride ingress into concrete. The probability of initiation time of chloride-induced corrosion is predicted using a probabilistic model that considers these aspects. Parametric analysis is conducted on several factors impacting the corrosion process, including the depth of concrete cover, surface chloride concentration, relative humidity, and temperature to expose environmental features. According to the findings, environmental factors such as surface chloride concentration, relative humidity and temperature substantially impact on the time to corrosion initiation. The long- and short-distance impacts are also examined. The meteorological data from the National Meteorological Center of China are collected and used to analyze the environmental characteristics of the chloride ingress issue for structures along China's coastline. Finally, various recommendations are made for improving durability design against chloride attacks.
