In this paper, the mix design of the super flowing concrete is described with respcet to basic concept, confined water ratio($\beta_p$), volume ratio of water-binder(w/b), volume ratio of fine aggregates($S_r$) and coarse aggregates($G_v$). The primary purposes of this study are to evaluate the effects of cementitious materials(fly ash, slag cement, portland cement), mixing factors ($\beta_p$, w/b, $S_r$, $G_v$)., and to propose the mix design method of the super flowing concrete. As results of this study, confined water ratio($\beta_p$) of cementitious materials is very high (0.99~1.1), and then the ranges of the optimum mixing factors to be satisfied with the super flowing concrete are $S_r$ 47$\ell$ 2%, $G_v$ 52$\ell$ 1%.

최근 일부 외국에서는 종래의 수중 콘크리트와 다른 관점으로부터 수중에서 쉽게 분리되지 않고 타설방법도 용이한 특수 혼화제가 개발되어 실험과 시공에서 성공하였고, 이런 특수 콘크리트(수중 비분리 콘크리트)는 점차 사용 규모와 시공 방법이 확대되고 있는 추세이다. 본 논문에서는 수중 비분리 콘크리트에 대한 성공적인 실험, 시공사례를 참고하여 수중 비분리성 혼화제 및 다른 혼화제의 첨가 방법을 달리하였을 경우, 수중 비분리 콘크리트의 물성변화를 검토하였고, 비교적 정온 상태의 해상 환경에 적용할 수 있는 수중 비분리 콘크리트의 최적 배합을 결정하였다.

Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) has been originally developed in Japan to offset a growing shortage of skilled labors, is a highly workable concrete, which is not needed to any vibration or impact during casting. The utilizing of fibers in SCC improves the mechanical properties and durability of hardened concrete such as impact strength, flexural strength, and vulnerability to cracking. The purpose of this investigation is to determine the effect of steel fibers on mechanical performance of traditionally reinforced Self-Competing Concrete beams. In this study, two mixes Mix 1% and Mix 2% containing 1% and 2% volume friction of superplasticizer are considered. For each type of mixture, four different volume percentages of 60/30 (length/diameter) fibers of 0.0%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 2% were used. The mechanical properties were determined through compressive and flexural tests. According to the experimental test results, an increase in the steel fibers volume fraction in Mix 1% and Mix 2% improves compressive strength slightly but decreases the workability and other rheological properties of SCC. On the other hand, results revealed that flexural strength, energy absorption capacity and toughness are increased by increasing the steel fiber volume fraction. The results clearly show that the use of fibers improves the post-cracking behavior. The average spacing of between cracks decrease by increasing the fiber volume fraction. Furthermore, fibers increase the tensile strength by bridging actions through the cracks. Therefore, steel fibers increase the ductility and energy absorption capacity of RC elements subjected to flexure.

Tailing Material (TM) and Fly Ash (FA) are obtained as waste products from the mining and thermal industries. Studies were carried out to explore the possibility of utilizing TM as a part replacement to fine aggregate and FA as a part replacement to cement, in concrete mixes. The effect of replacing fine aggregate by TM and cement by FA on the standard sized specimen for compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strengths are evaluated in this study. The concrete mix of M40 grade was adopted with water cement ratio equal to 0.40. Concrete mix with 35% TM and 65% natural sand (TM35/S65) has shown superior performance in strength as against (TM0/S100, TM30/S70, TM40/S60, TM50/S50, and TM60/S40). For this composition, studies were performed to propose the optimal replacement of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) by FA (Replacement levels studied were 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%). Replacement level of 20% OPC by FA, has shown about 0-5% more compressive strength as against the control mix, for both 28 day and 56 days of water curing. Interestingly results of split tensile and flexural strengths for 20% OPC replaced by FA, have shown strengths equal to that of no replacement (control mix).

The technique of experimentally determining concrete's compressive strength for a given mix design is time-consuming and difficult. The goal of the current work is to propose a best working predictive model based on different machine learning algorithms such as Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM), Stacked Ensemble (SE), Distributed Random Forest (DRF), Extremely Randomized Trees (XRT), Generalized Linear Model (GLM), and Deep Learning (DL) that can forecast the compressive strength of ternary geopolymer concrete mix without carrying out any experimental procedure. A geopolymer mix uses supplementary cementitious materials obtained as industrial by-products instead of cement. The input variables used for assessing the best machine learning algorithm not only include individual ingredient quantities, but molarity of the alkali activator and age of testing as well. Myriad statistical parameters used to measure the effectiveness of the models in forecasting the compressive strength of ternary geopolymer concrete mix, it has been found that GBM performs better than all other algorithms. A sensitivity analysis carried out towards the end of the study suggests that GBM model predicts results close to the experimental conditions with an accuracy between 95.6 % to 98.2 % for testing and training datasets.

This paper presents the findings of an investigation of the fiber content variations in concrete being discharged from a ready-mix truck at the construction site. Concrete samples were extracted from the truck drums at the beginning, middle and end of discharge. Subsequently, fibers in each sample were separated from the concrete, and weighed. Presumably, synthetic macro fibers will float towards the top, i.e. towards the drum opening, of the inclined, revolving truck-drum, while, on the other hand, steel fibers will tend to gravitate towards the lower parts of the mixer drum. Accordingly, the discharge batch, containing synthetic macro fibers, will contain a higher amount of synthetic fibers per unit volume at the start of discharge than the average unit volume fiber content of the mix, and the content will gradually decrease further down the batch. The discharge batch of steel fiber concrete will contain fewer fibers per unit volume at the start of discharge than the average unit volume fiber content of the mix, and the content should gradually increase further down the batch. The correctness of the foregoing is partly confirmed. A certain percentage of the truck loads did not comply with the proposed requirements, mainly steel fiber reinforced batches, indicating the necessity of a code or guideline amendment. A change in the Norwegian shotcrete directive was made in 2011, based upon experimental research work (2010), which, in combination with the subsequent University of Life Sciences report (2012), constitutes the foundation of this article.

이 연구는 해수작용에 대한 콘크리트의 내구성시험의 일환으로 각종 배합설계의 콘크리트에 대하여 1년간 실내에서 해수에 침지하여 압축강도와 부식율을 규명하고저 시도하였다. 각종 콘크리트의 배합설계에 있어서 보통시멘트만을 사용한 것, 혼화제로서 후라이애쉬, 포조리스, 빈솔레진 등을 각각 보통시멘트에 사용한 것, 그리고 포조란 시멘트만을 사용한 것 등으로 구분하고 각 콘크리트 공시체는 K.S 규정에 준하여 만들어 재령 7일 및 28일 양생하였다. 그리고 압축강도시험은 수중과 해수에 각각 1년간 침지한 것에 대하여 강도를 측정하고 부식율시험은 해수중에 1년간 침지한 것에 대하여 부식율을 측정하였다. 이와같은 콘크리트의 압축강도시험과 부식율 시험에 대한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 압축강도에 있어서 보통콘크리트는 수중이나 해수중에 다 같이 다른 콘크리트의 강도보다 낮으므로 포조란시멘트나 혼화제인 후라이애쉬, 포조리스. 빈솔레진은 각각 그 효과가 인정되었다. (2) 포조란시멘트는 수중에서 강도가 다른 콘크리트보다 가장 높았으나 해수중에서는 후라이애쉬보다 낮은 강도를 나타내었다. 따라서 포조란시멘트는 해수중에서 보다 수중에서 강도상 효과가 있다는 것을 알 수 있다. (3) 후라이애쉬는 수중에서와 해수중에서 다 같이 장기강도에 있어서 높은 강도를 갖인 특성이 있다는 것을 나타내었고, 수중에서는 포조란시멘트에 비하여 강도가 낮었으나 해수중에서는 오히려 포조란 시멘트의 강도를 능가하고 있어 해수중에서는 포조란 시멘트보다 강도상 더욱 그 효과가 크다는 것을 알 수 있다. (4) 포조리스는 후라이애쉬와 포조란시멘트에 비해서 그 효과가 떨어지나 빈솔레진에 비해서는 강도상에 있어서 항상 그 효과가 인정되공 있다. (5) 빈솔레진은 포조란시멘트나 혼화제중에서 강도상 가장 그 효과가 낮으나 보통콘크리트에 비하면 그 효과는 수중이나 해수중에서 다 같이 인정되고 있다. (6) 콘크리트의 압축강와 흡수율과의 관계는 후라이애쉬를 제외하면 다른 재령에서와 같이 흡수율이 적을수록 압축강도는 증가되며 회기직선관계가 성립되었다. 그러나 후라이애쉬는 장기강도에서 그 특징이 현저히 나타나고 있어 다른 콘크리트의 흡수율에 비하여 현저히 높은 강도를 나타내고 있다. (7) 부식율에 있어서는 1년간 해수작용을 받었을 때 각 콘크리트의 유의적인 부식율이 인정될 수 없으며 외관상에서도 부식현상을 식별할 수 없었다.

Generally, the concrete constructed during cold weather has the frozen damage which cause the fatal damage so that heat curing and sheet curing was performed to prevent the early freezing of concrete. However, partial refrigeration caused by thermal gradient has many troubles so that the construction hasn`t been done as possible. This paper presents the development of strenth properties and optimal mix design against frozen damage under the cold weather, 1$0^{\circ}C$ below the zero.

This study provided the engineering properties of the recycled aggregate concrete with fly-ash and silica-fume. There are considered recycled aggregate substitution ratio, and fly-ash silica-fume mix ratio as the experimental variable. From the experimental result, we could know that the recycled aggregate concrete mixed silica-fume is superior on the compressive strength but, is poor on the construction property than fly-ash. The optimal mix ratio of the fly-ash and silica-fume is 10% in all.
