In case of recycled fine aggregate, density and absorption ratio is lower than natural one, so it is used to lower value added products and it is limited its usage. It is reported that Compressive and tensile strength of recycled concrete is more deteriorate and shrinkage properties is very deteriorate because high absorption of recycled fine aggregate. Accordingly, in this study, it is develop that dry manufacturing system composed specific gravity separator of high-speed rotation impact type, reclaimer of minuteness fine aggregate and evaluate that shrinkage properties of recycled concrete using recycled fine aggregate at producing this system. Hereafter, it is present that fundamental data to practical use recycled fine aggregate.

This study aims to obtain technical data for improvement of utilization of Blast Furnace Slag(BFS), recycled aggregate in the future by complementing fundamental problems of BFS such as manifestation of initial strength and excessive alkali quantity as well as weakness of recycled fine aggregate through manufacturing of recycled fine aggregate mortar using BFS. Since hydroxide ion concentration of calcium hydroxide(Ca(OH)2) ion erupted from recycled fine aggregate newly produced is over 12. In recycled fine aggregate mortar transposing and using BFS powder, calcium hydroxide(Ca(OH)2) erupted from recycled fine aggregate played a role of stimulus from the day 3 and manifestation of compressive strength was slowly increased with mortar using natural fine aggregate and showed considerable increase from the day 7.

This study investigates the effect of a grading of aggregate on the properties of concrete. It is a common sense in Korea that the production of coarse aggregate in ready mixed concrete industry excludes particular aggregate size ranged from 5 mm to 13 mm for saving the production cost. This causes a gap grading of the aggregate for concrete, which can lead to the increase of unit water, the development of drying shrinkage-induced crack and the reduction of compressive strength. In this study, conventional aggregate obtained from a ready mixed concrete factory and the aggregate with a modified grading produced in lab. condition were prepared. Results showed that a good grading of aggregate (i.e., the ratio of 5~13 mm and 13~25 mm is 6 to 4) produced in the lab. condition significantly improved the slump and the compressive strength of the concrete.

Recently, attempts of replacing some of natural aggregate with mix of low quality aggregate are carried out for stable supply of aggregate. However, low quality aggregate such as recycled aggregate produced during the disposal process of construction wastes and by-product aggregate produced by industrial activities has problem of failing to comply to KS Standards. Therefore, we have compared fundamental properties of concrete by using granite crushed aggregate, recycled aggregate, blast furnace and electric arc furnace slag aggregate for effective utilization of lacking aggregate resources. As the result, slump in case of mixed use of aggregate was increased 0~10% compared to single use. Therefore, it is judged to be economically advantageous as it can expect effects in unit quantity or reduction of SP agent. Compressive strength in case of mixed use of aggregate was increased 0~10% compared to single use as it filled internal crevice of concrete with continuous particle size distribution. Accordingly, if we utilize by satisfying standard particle scope through mix of aggregate with different cause of formation in proper ratio, it was possible to confirm utility of mixed aggregate with demonstration of effects of increases of fluidity and compressive strength of concrete.

It is necessary to generalize the use for structural ALA Concrete in our country, as increasing in the need for the development of ALA and the use of ALA Concrete which is related with the diminution of the self load and foundation section of structure responding to the realistic requirement against the decrease of natural aggregate and the high-rising and large-sizing of structures. This little study, therefore intended to help in the mixing design of concrete by considering the fundamental properties of ALA Concrete used with expanded clay, which is considered by acopting the experimental factors such as unit cement content, water cement ratio and the rate of fine aggregate. By considering the results of this experiment, it has difficulty in getting expected slump with the unit water content of normal concrete because of the large absorption of lightweight aggregate, and because the weight of unit volume and specific gravity ALA Concrete are small it appears that the strength and Elastic Modulus of that are small too and that it is more ductile than normal concrete.

Previous studies have shown that the drying shrinkage of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is greater than that of natural aggregate concrete (NAC). Drying shrinkage is the fundamental reason for the cracking of concrete, and tensile creep caused by the restraint of drying shrinkage plays a significant role in the cracking because it can relieve the tensile stress and results in the delay of cracking occurrence. However, up till now, all research has been focusing on the compressive creep of RAC. Therefore, in this study, a uniaxial restrained shrinkage cracking test was executed to investigate the tensile creep properties caused by the restraint of drying shrinkage of RAC. The mechanical properties, such as compressive strength, tensile splitting strength, and Young's modulus of RAC were also investigated in this study. The results confirmed that the tensile creep of RAC caused by the restraint of shrinkage was about 20-30 % larger than that of NAC.

The use of lightweight concrete products is usually increased at a recently high structures. Among the rest EPSB concrete products which have an excellence on the sound and thermal insolation are used. Also, the gathering of nature aggregate is limited, so that lack of fine aggregate is appearing. The purpose of this study is to obtain basic data of properties of EPSB concrete in according to types of aggregate. The results of experiment are as follow. The EPSB concrete using bottom ash is appeared the lowest slump in fresh concrete. The EPSB concrete using river sand and bottom ash are showed as a similar compressive strength except it using crushed sand in hardened concrete.

Most concrete is recently made of an aggregate which is properly absorbed, and carried in it in order to do capability at every fields. We have been close to demand new capability of high flowing and enduring for specific concretes. That is difficult to cope with claiming the efficiency on deterioration from lack of a high quality aggregate. Therefore, for solving the problems we apply to a packing method for using dried materials. That is to say it is a kind of making into an instant. In this study, There is a purpose to present fundamental data, comparing and analyzing a phenomenon about aggregate absorption following the rate of adding water, for using existing materials.

In this paper, we carried out fundamental experiments to use the steel manufacturing slag as a concrete aggregate. Generally there are two types of slag, the blast-furnace slag and the steel manufacturing slag. The latter is classified by the difference of manufacturing method of steel into the convertor slag and the electric-furnace slag. The steel manufacturing slag mainly contains SiO2 and CaO as the chmical composition. The reaction with water and a little of free CaO in the steel manufacturing slag makes the expansion of volume change. Therefore, we primarily investigated physical properties, expansion mechanism, pH value, aging effects and aging methods in the steel manufacturing slag. Then compressive strength of concrete with steel slag aggregate is measured.
