The present study is focused on the mechanical and durability properties of ternary blended cement concrete mix of different grades 30 MPa, 50 MPa and 70 MPa. Three mineral admixtures (fly ash, silica fume and lime sludge) were used as a partial replacement of cement in the preparation of blended concrete mix. The durability of ternary blended cement concrete mix was studied by exposing it to acids HCl and $H_2SO_4$ at 5% concentration. Acid mass loss factors (AMLF), acid strength loss factor (ASLF) and acid durability factor (ADF) were determined, and the results were compared with the control mix. Chloride ions penetration was investigated by conducting rapid chlorination penetration test and accelerated corrosion penetration test on control mix and ternary blended cement concrete. From the results, it was evident that the usage of these mineral admixtures is having a beneficiary role on the strength as well as durability properties. The results inferred that the utilization of these materials as a partial replacement of cement have significantly enhanced the compressive strength of blended concrete mix in 30 MPa, 50 MPa and 70 MPa by 42.95%, 32.48% and 22.79%. The blended concrete mix shown greater resistance to acid attack compared to control mix concrete. Chloride ion ingress of the blended cement concrete mix was low compared to control mix implying the beneficiary role of mineral admixtures.

콘크리트 배합설계의 목적은 사용 조건에 따라 요구되는 성능을 만족시키는 콘크리트를 만들기 위하여 가장 경제적이며 실용적인 재료의 혼합비율을 결정하는 것이다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해서는 배합설계에 대한 깊은 이해가 필요한 데 실제는 배합설계가 매우 어렵고 복잡한 일로 인식되어 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 배합설계이론을 고찰하고 비쥬얼 베이직으로 배합설계 프로그램을 작성함으로써 콘크리트 공학의 초보자도 이 프로그램을 이용하여 쉽게 배합설계를 할 수 있도록 하였다.

This study are decided the mix proportion method of latex modified concrete for agricultural concrete structures from the results of workability and strength test with mix proportion factor. For mix proportion factor, this study are selected the water-cement ratio, unit cement amount and latex content. Also, this study were performed the slump, compressive strength test and microstructure analysis using the scanning electron microscope(SEM). The strength and slump of LMC are dependent with unit cement amount, latex content, and water-cement ratio. Especially, the strength of LMC are not controlled by single mix proportion factor but effected by combined mix proportion factor. Microstructure investigation are showed the LMC are reduced the internal pore volume and enhanced the transition zone between cement paste and aggregate interface. This effect get by consist of latex films in the concrete. Also, this study were recommended the mix proportion method for LMC. These mix proportions method are estimated the mix design for satisfied the target performance which are applied the agricultural concrete structure.

It is proposed in this paper to develop the rational mix design system of High-strength concrete which is adjusted in the domestic circumstances. 1) Collect a lots of data in order to introduce the optimum mix design which has relation among material variables which compose High-strength concrete and run by using SAS (Statistical analysis system) which is one of multivariate statistical analysis method. 2) Select the important material variables for mix design of High-strength concrete by major component analysis and propose the standard range of each material variable along the target strengths. From the results of this study, it was proposed the range of proper material variables in domestic circumstance, which are W/C, S/A, air and admixture amounts, etc, at the target strengths for concrete kind. Also it was developed the optimum mix design program of High-strength concrete according to target strength and size of aggregate and made mix design ease in domestic construction site.

Concrete mix degign and adjustments are somewhat complicated and time-consuming tasks in which various uncertainties and errors are involved and depend on the quality control test results. In this paper, as a tool to minimize the uncertainties and errors the neural network is applied to the concrete mix design. Input data to train and test the neural network are obtained from the results of design and adjustments following the concrete standard specifications of Korea. The results show that neural networks have a strong potential as a tool for concrete mix design.

The purpose of this research is to propose a design technique of concrete mix proportions satisfying service life through genetic algorithm (GA) and neural network (NN). For this, thirty mix proportions and the related diffusion coefficients in high performance concrete are analyzed and fitness function for diffusion coefficient is obtained considering mix components like w/b (water to binder ratio), cement content, mineral admixture (slag, flay ash and silica fume) content, sand and coarse aggregate content. Through averaging the results of 10 times GA simulations, relative errors to the previous data decrease lower than 5.0% and the simulated mix proportions are verified with the experimental results. Assuming the durability design parameters, intended diffusion coefficient for intended service life is derived and mix proportions satisfying the service life are obtained. Among the mix proportions, the most optimized case which satisfies required concrete strength and the lowest cost is selected through GA algorithm. The proposed technique would be improved with the enhancement of comprehensive data set including wider the range of diffusion coefficients.

High performance concrete (HPC) depends on various parameters such as the type of cement, aggregate and water reducer amount. Generally, the ready concrete company in various regions according to the requirements and costs, mix design of concrete as well as type of cement, aggregates, and, amount of other components will vary as a result of moment decisions or dynamic optimization, though the ideal conditions will be more applicable for the design of mix proportion of concrete. This study aimed to apply dynamic optimization for mix design of HPC; consequently, the objective function, decision variables, input and output variables and constraints are defined and also the proposed dynamic optimization model is validated by experimental results. Results indicate that dynamic optimization objective function can be defined in such a way that the compressive strength or performance of all constraints is simultaneously examined, so changing any of the variables at each step of the process input and output data changes the dynamic of the process which makes concrete mix design formidable.

콘크리트의 배합설계를 위해서는 각종 콘크리트 표준 시방서의 내용에 대하여 잘 알아야 할 뿐 아니라 현장 경험이 많은 전문가의 경험을 필요로 한다. 그러나 배합 설계에 관련된 모든 인자들과 그 인자들 간의 상호작용에 대하여 모두 고려할 수는 없다. 따라서 적적한 배합설계에 관한 판단은 품질관리를 위한 재료시험을 통하여 판단할 수밖에 없고 그 결과에 따라 보정하는 과정을 거치게 된다. 이렇듯 콘크리트의 배합설계는 재료, 온도, 현장조건, 기술자의 숙련도 등에 대하여는 불확실성이 존재하고 계산과 시험과정에 존재하는 오차로 인하여 엄격한 품질관리를 하여야만 하기 때문에 자칫 지루하며 복잡하고 힘든 일이 될 수밖에 없다. 본 연구에서는 이렇듯 콘크리트의 배합설계 과정에서 나타나는 피할 수 없는 불확실성과 오차들을 최소화하기 위하여 신경망을 적용하였다. 신경망의 학습과 검증을 위한 자료는 콘크리트 표준시방서에 따라 설계기준 강도, 굵은골재 최대치수, 슬럼프, 골재의 조립율 등을 변화시켜 가면서 이론적으로 물-시멘트비, 잔골재율, 단위 수량, 단위 시멘트량, 단위 잔골재량, 단위 굵은 골재량 등을 구하여 사용하였다. 특히 콘크리트의 실제강도는 동일한 조건하에서 강도시험을 실시하여도 결과가 서로 다르게 나타나는 확율변수인점도 고려하였다. 콘크리트의 배합설계에 신경망을 적용한 결과는 그 적용성이 매우 컸다.
