This study aims to evaluate a porous concrete using hwang-toh, blast furnace slag and blast furnace slag (BFS) cement instead of type I cement. The tests that were carried out to analysis the properties of porous hwang-toh BFS cement concrete included compressive strength, continuous void ratio, absorption rate, and pH value, repeated freezing and thawing test were conducted. Test results indicated that the performance in porous hwang-toh concrete are effective on the kaoline based binder materials. The pH value were shown in about 9.5 ~ 8.5. The compressive strength was increased and void ratio was decreased with increasing the kaoline based binder materials, respectively. The void ratio and compressive strength were in the range of about 21 ~ 30 %, 8 ~ 13 MPa, respectively. The increased in void ratio of more than 25 % is showed to reduce the resistance of repeated freezing and thawing. Also, the resistance of repeated freezing of thawing and the compressive strength of porous hwang-toh BFS cement concrete are independent with hwang-toh content and BFS cement amount. But, the void ratio was decreased with increasing the high volume hwang-toh contents (more than 15 %).

The primary objectives of this paper are to describe the buckling patterns and to determine the squash load of steel plate-concrete (SC) walls. The major variables in this study were the width-thickness (B/t) ratio and yield strength of surface steel plates. Six SC walls were tested, and the results include the maximum strength, buckling pattern of steel plates, strength of headed studs, and behavior of headed studs. Based on the test results, the effects of the B/t ratio on the compressive strength are also discussed. The paper also presents recommended effective length coefficients and discusses the effects of varying the yield strength of the steel plate, and the effects of headed studs on the performance of SC structures based on the test results and analysis.

This research study focuses on utilizing sandstone which is overburden waste rock in coal mines to use in concrete as a replacement of fine aggregate. Physical properties of sandstone like water absorption, moisture content, fineness modulus etc., were found to be similar to conventional fine aggregate. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis was carried out for analysing elemental composition of sandstone. There was no sulphur content in sandstone which is a good sign to carry the replacement. Fine aggregate was replaced with sandstone at 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% by volume and moulds of concrete cubes and cylinders were prepared. Compressive strength of concrete cubes was tested after 3, 7 and 28 days and split tensile & flexural strength was determined after 28 days. The strength was found to be increasing marginally with increase in sandstone content. Fine aggregate that was replaced by 100% sandstone gave highest strength among all the replacements for the compressive, split tensile and flexural strengths. Though increase in strength was marginal, still sandstone can be an effective replacement for sand in order to save the natural resource and utilize the waste sandstone.

This study is intended to present a reference data for effective quality control of concrete through comparing the rebound value of P type schmidt hammer with the compressive strength with variation of mix proportion and curing condition. According to the results, the air-curing specimen shows the higher rebound value than standard specimen except high strength in the whole. Also the vertical stroke shows higher rebound value than horizontal stroke in standard specimen, however, the rebound value of the two does not show prominent difference in air-curing specimen. The estimation equation of compressive strength derived from this experiment estimates the compressive strength more largely than the estimation equation in P type schmidt hammer manual. Therefore it is thought that the new estimation equation that fits our condition will have to be presented.

Several types of industrial byproducts are generated. With increased environmental awareness and its potential hazardous effects, the utilization of industrial byproducts in concrete has become an attractive alternative to their disposal. One such by-product is ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), which is a byproduct of the smelting process carried out in the iron and steel industry. The GGBS is very effective in the design and development of high-strength and high-performance concrete. This paper reviews the effect of GGBS on the workability, porosity, compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and flexural strength of concrete.

An experimental study has been carried out on square plain concrete (PC) and reinforced concrete (RC) columns strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. A total of 78 specimens were loaded to failure in axial compression and investigated in both axial and transverse directions. Slenderness of the columns, number of wrap layers and concrete strength were the test parameters. Compressive stress, axial and hoop strains were recorded to evaluate the stress-strain relationship, ultimate strength and ductility of the specimens. Results clearly demonstrate that composite wrapping can enhance the structural performance of square columns in terms of both maximum strength and ductility. On the basis of the effective lateral confining pressure of composite jacket and the effective FRP strain coefficient, new peak stress equations were proposed to predict the axial strength and corresponding strain of FRP-confined square concrete columns. This model incorporates the effect of the effective circumferential FRP failure strain and the effect of the effective lateral confining pressure. The results show that the predictions of the model agree well with the test data.

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.

스트럿-타이 모델 방법을 이용한 콘크리트 구조부재의 설계 시 가장 중요한 요소 중 하나는 콘크리트 스트럿의 유효강도를 정확하게 결정하는 것이다. 콘크리트 스트럿의 유효강도를 결정하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔으며, 여러 종류의 스트럿의 유효강도 값 및 산정식이 제안되었다. 그러나 이들은 2차원 콘크리트 구조부재의 스트럿-타이 모델 설계를 위한 것으로, 그 값을 3차원 콘크리트 구조부재의 설계에 적용하는 것은 적절하지 않다. 이 연구에서는 콘크리트 스트럿이 위치한 곳의 3축 응력 상태, 콘크리트의 3차원 파괴기준, 스트럿 길이의 영향, 스트럿과 압축 주응력 흐름과의 불일치의 영향, 콘크리트 압축강도의 영향, 그리고 철근에 의한 콘크리트 스트럿의 구속의 정도 등을 고려하여 3차원 콘크리트 스트럿의 유효강도를 일관성 있게 결정할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 기존 연구자들에 의해 파괴실험이 수행된 115개의 철근콘크리트 파일캡 시험체의 극한강도를 평가하였으며, 그 결과를 실험결과 및 현행 설계기준에서 제안한 스트럿의 유효강도 값을 이용하여 평가한 결과와 비교분석하였다.

Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) is widely used as an effective partial cement replacement material. GGBFS inclusion has already been proven to improve several performance characteristics of concrete. GGBFS provides enhanced durability, including high resistance to chloride penetration and protection against alkali silica reaction. In this paper results of an experimental research work on influence of low-reactivity GGBFS (which is largely available in Iran) on the properties of mortars and concretes are reported. In the first stage, influence of GGBFS replacement level and fineness on the compressive strength of mortars was investigated using Taguchi method. The analysis of mean (ANOM) statistical approach was also adopted to develop the optimal conditions. Next, based on the obtained results, concrete mixtures were designed and water penetration, capillary absorption, surface resistivity, and compressive strength tests were carried out on highstrength concrete specimens at different ages up to 90 days. The results indicated that 7-day compressive strength is adversely affected by GGBFS inclusion, while the negative effect is less evident at later ages. Also, it was inferred that use of low-reactivity GGBFS (at moderate levels such as 20% and 30%) can enhance the impermeability of high-strength concrete since 28 days age.
