An experimental study is carried out to estimate the way of applying the granulated blast furnace slag[GBFS] to the lean concrete base of concrete pavement. According to the test results, this application seems promising. For this application, mixing percent of GBFS ranging from 30 to 50 is recommendable at this stage. And performance of base mixed with GBFS is greatly affected by the curing and placing condition. As long as all requirements for application of GBFS to the base is satisfied, better performance is expected.

An experimental study is carried out to estimate the way of applying the granulated blast furnace slag[GBFS] to the lean concrete subbase of concrete pavement. According to the test results, this application seems promising. For this application, mixing percent of GBFS ranging from 30 to 45 is recommendable at this stage. Expected benefits using GGBFS in the field of concrete pavement include reduced shrinkage crack, reduced pavement thickness, and extended service life.

The purpose of this study is the hydration properties of motar using Blast-Furnace Slag(BFS) with water elured from recycled coarse aggregate. The results of the experiment show that the water eluted from recycled coarse aggregate mixed with blast furnace slag has comparatively higher hydration activity than the mortar not mixed with one in early-age mortar causing the calcium hydroxide in the recycled coarse aggregate to work on as a stimulus to the hydration of ground granulated blast furnace slag. BFS mixed with the eluting water the hydration reaction was a promotion.

Recently in Korea, may workers have reported the effects of the granulated blast furnace slag[BFS] of high fineness on the strength development of slag cement. We have studied the effect of slag fineness on the strength development of mortar with curing conditions, in order to get the basic data of high strength concrete using BFS. In this paper, we discussed the effects of slag fineness and porosity of mortar and the reaction of slag in hardened slag cement.

In this study, to increase fluidity and resistance of segregation of materials, the effect of each of the materials, which have effects on high performance concrete from investigating the properties of strength and drying shrinkage of high performance concrete made by the basic mix proportion used fly-ash and ground granulated blast-furnace slag after hardening, has been checked. By the results of this experiment, fluidity on W/C=34% was satisfied within slump-flow 65$\pm$5cm and U-type self-compacting difference 5cm. On the properties of strength, high performance concrete produced compressive strength over 400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ in 28days when powder was replaced by 40% of fly-ash and 60% of ground granulated blast-furnace slag. And compressive strength was taken over 600kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ equal to non-replacement in 91days. Also, the length change of concrete with the addition of fly-ash was smaller than that without it. Therefore, it may be effective on the decrease of drying shrinkage volume.

The compressive strength of concrete is greatly affected by the temperature inside the concrete at the initial age immediately after pouring. The apparent activation energy of cement and the setting time of concrete are major factors influencing the development of compressive strength of concrete. This study measured the apparent activation energy and setting time according to the change in W/B for each mixing rate of Ground Granulated Blast-Furnace Slag (GGBFS). And after calculating the compressive strength prediction model, the accuracy of the prediction model was evaluated by comparing the predicted compressive strength and the compressive strength.

To investigate the curing temperature effect on the engineering properties of ground granulated blast furnace slag-cement bentonite (GGBS-CB) slurry for cutoff walls, the laboratory experiments including the setting time, unconfined compressive strength, and permeability tests were carried out. The mixing procedure for GGBS-CB slurry was as follows: (1) montmorillonite-based bentonite slurry was first fabricated and hydrated for four hours, and (2) cement or GGBS with cement was added to the bentonite slurry. The dosage range of GGBS was from 0 to 90 % of cement by mass fraction. The GGBS-CB slurry specimens were cured and stored in environmental chamber at temperature of 14±1, 21±1, 28±1℃ and humidity of 95±2% until target days. The highest average temperature of three seasons in South Korea was selected and used for the tests. The experimental results indicated that in early age (less than 28 days) of curing the engineering properties of GGBS-CB slurry were primarily affected by the curing temperature, whereas the replacement ratio of GGBS became a main factor to determine the properties of the slurry as the curing time increased.

Recycled aggregate mortar contains plenty of calcium hydroxide to improve the strength of blast furnace slag, although the surface mortar made of recycled aggregate deteriorates adhesion to cement paste and blast furnace slag has a low initial strength. Therefore, this study assumes that the combination with both recycled aggregate and blast furnace slag will produce a better performance. The results of the experiment show that dry mortar made of recycled aggregate provides with higher strength than wet mortar does at the 3-day and 7-day age, while lower at the 28-day age. It indicates that a large amount of cement mortar made of dry recycled aggregate has deteriorated adhesion strength. The mixes with 30% and 50% of blast furnace slag and 50% and 75% of recycled aggregate provide with much better strength at the 7-day age, although they usually have latent hydraulic property at the 28-day age. It indicates that calcium hydroxide($Ca(OH){_2}$) in recycled aggregate has affected ground granulated blast furnace slag.

The purpose of this experimental research is to estimate compressive strength and resistance to freezing and thawing of recycled aggregate concrete containing ground granulated blast furnace slag. For this purpose, concrete specimens according to substitution ratio of recycled aggregate were made for different replacement ratio of ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBFS), and then compressive strength and resistance to freezing and thawing were evaluated for those. It was observed from the test results that compressive strength at 28 days of recycled aggregate concrete containing GGBFS of 20% was much more excellent than plain concrete and when air content of concrete was maintained 4 to 6%, influence of substitution ratio of recycled aggregate and replacement ratio of GGBFS on resistance to freezing and thawing was little up to 300 cycles of freezing and thawing.
