In producing high strength concrete, the most practical method is to use high range water reducing admixture(HRWR). Workabili쇼 of concrete using HRWR varies rapidly with elapsed time after mixing. Effects of fly ash and gypsum on slump loss and compressive strength of concrete were examined by experiment in this study. The slump loss of high strength concrete was reduced with increase of substitution ratio of fly ash. When 2~4% gypsum of cement weight was applied, the reduction of slump loss was not prominent and strength increase appeared at all test ages.

To investigate the properties of high flowing and high strength concrete with crushed sand and fly ash for CFT structure, many batches were performed by a trial-error method. In the experiment W/B was set up three levels as 0.25, 0.30 and 0.35. Also the variables of the experiment were a substitution ratio of fly ash, a blend ratio of crushed sand and the ages of specimens(3, 7, 28 days). The results of this study are summarized as the follows; 1) The effect a substitution ratio of fly ash on the compressive strength was not consistent with age. For twenty-eight day compressive strength, the best result was come out when cement was substituted by 10% of fly ash. 2) The decrease of the water binder ratio, the increase of compressive strength and elastic modulus. Also the relationship is very similar to the case of a normal concrete

This paper describes the development of modified heat of hydration and maturity-strength models for concrete containing fly ash and slag. The modified models are developed based on laboratory and literature test results, which include different types of cement, fly ash, and slag. The new models consider cement type, water-to-cementitious material ratio (w/cm), mineral admixture, air content, and curing conditions. The results show that the modified models well predict heat evolution and compressive strength development of concrete made with different cementitious materials. Using the newly developed models, the sensitivity analysis was also performed to study the effect of each parameter on the hydration and strength development. The results illustrate that comparing with other parameters studied, w/cm, air content, fly ash, and slag replacement level have more significantly influence on concrete strength at both early and later age.

Energetically-modified material using reject fly ash was manufactured to investigate the effect of the material on strength characteristic of cement mortar. In order to modify reject fly ash, a vibration mill was used. after grinding process, the defects in the alignment of atom was checked using transmission electron microscope. It was found that the compressive strength values of 28 days-cured specimens using energetically-modified reject fly ash (ERFA) were higher than that of mortar with non-ground reject fly ash.

This study is represented the strength and freeing-thawing properties of recycled aggregate concrete mixed fly ash by experiment. The experimental variables are the substitution ratio of recycled aggregate and the mixing ratio of fly-ash. For each specimens, there were tested compressive strength and freeze-thaw resistance. It is able to find from the experimental result that the recycled aggregate concrete has good properties as general concrete on the compressive strength and the durability.

The purpose of the research is assessing the possibility of strength recovery for mortar added with accidently high amount of fly ash. For compressive strength at 28 day, the sample painted with sodium hydroxide showed higher compressive strength than the sample painted with calcium hydroxide. Regarding the curing conditions, the curing temperature 65℃ provided better conditions than the curing temperature 20℃ in aspect of solution penetration depth and reactivity of fly ash. In the case of drying after saturation, the case painted with sodium hydroxid 65℃ showed the clearest engrossing mark.

The compressive strength of a paste composed of a low-calcium Class F fly ash and alkaline activator solutions was investigated. These activator solutions, made with sodium hydroxide, water glass and water, have a very high $OH^-$ concentration. The composition of alkaline activator solution and temperature have been shown to notably influence the development of the compressive strength of the fly ash-cements paste. Compressive strength of 50 MPa could be achieved by curing of the fly ash at $60^{\circ}C$ for 48 hrs or $85^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs. This study presented the optimum mixing ratio of Class F fly ash/sodium hydroxide/water glass as 25:8:2 in weight basis, and activator/fly ash as 0.6/1.0 for high strength paste.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the compressive strength properties of municipal waste ash hardening using the unrefined fly-ash and paper sludge ash and to offer basic data to someone for recycling municipal waste ash. Unrefined fly-ash and paper sludge ash are used with admixture. MWA are tested that grading, specific gravity and pH value and observed microsructure of particle with SEM. The compressive strengths of MWA hardening which is mixed with regular ratio according to each admixture are measured. In the results of test, fly-ash is very effective for reducing content of cement by 50% in the recycling of MWA. But proper content mixed paper sludge ash is recommend by about 20% in binder.

Because of low early compressive strength, the usage of fly ash is subject to restriction in comparison with blast-furnace slag powder. Therefore, high amount of fly ash is reclaimed in landfill in face of better economical efficiency and more production. In this paper, the primary aim is to determine to what the basic material characteristics of fly ash concrete is affected by activator, the second aim is to check a possibility of increase in fly ash application. This study show that compared with fly ash concrete using general admixture, fly ash concrete using activator have higher early compressive strength under similar slump, air content, loss. If additional study will inspect performance of activator in various factor, expansion of application of fly ash concrete using activator can be possible.

Recently, there have been many efforts to establish suitable processes for recycling fly ash, which is produced in thermal power plants and which poses serious environmental problems. Use of fly ash as a major ingredient of ceramic tiles can increase fly ash utilization, as well as reduce the cost of raw materials in ceramic tile production. In this study, the effects of fly ash addition on ceramic tile properties such as bending strength, water absorption and porosity were investigated. A manufacturing process of ceramic tile was developed for utilization of fly ash with high carbon content. In this approach, it is important to hold the ceramic tiles at a temperature that is sufficient for carbon oxidation, before the pores supplying oxygen to the inside of the ceramic tile are sealed. Ceramic wall tiles were manufactured with 0-40wt% of fly ash addition. The water absorption and porosity of the fired body were slightly changed with increasing fly ash content up to 30wt% and decreased with greater amounts of fly ash addition. The bending strength of ceramic tile including 10wt% fly ash increased, reaching a level comparable to that of ceramic tile without fly ash.
