This study investigates spalling properties of 60MPa class, high performance concrete, made with the various influential parameters, such as, blaine of cement, mineral admixture and polypropylene(PP) fiber contents. Totally 21 parameters of ${\phi}100{\times}200mm$ in size was fabricated; three specimens for variance in blaine of cement, 4 specimens for combination of mineral admixture type, along with 0.05, 0.1, 0.15% of fiber adding ratio. After that, one hour unloading fire test was conducted, and then spalling appearance and spalling degree of specimens was examined. Test showed that a specimen made with high blaine of cement(H) improved early strength but exhibited similar value to a specimen made with low blaine(L) at the age of 28 days, thus indicating comparable spalling appearance. In conclusion, spalling easily occur in higher strength and smaller particle shape of cement and mineral admixture.

This study was carried out to investigate and analyse the influence of brain and unit weight of cement on the properties of shotcrete through the laboratory and field test. From the results of the test, the shotcrete with high blaine cement showed the rebound ratio lower and the strength properties higher than the shotcrete with normal blaine cement. Such as this was produced also in the mix with low unit weight of high blaine cement.

In this study, a test has been carried out to solve the problem with ground granulated blast-furnace slag, low early strength & lack of supply and to find out a way to use as concrete admixture of the ultrafine blaine air cooling slag which is all disposed as the by product of air cooling slag and its test was conducted to the replacement rate of ultrafine blaine air cooling slag & mixing condition of every concrete admixtures by type for the purpose of obtaining later a basic data for practical use of the cement that used ultrafine blaine air cooling slag by conducting comparative analysis. If ultrafine-blaine air cooling slag is used to the concrete following the results, a high efficiency water reducing agent won't be needed much for flow acquisition due to a high increase in flow, and the stripping time of concrete form will be shortened thanks to the acquisition of early strength, And though, it has the problems with long term strength which is similar or a little lower than the 3 types of ground granulated blast-furnace slag, it's still applicable as the substitute materials for 3 types of ground granulated blast-furnace slag at 10, 15% replacement rate of ultrafine-blaine air cooling slag, at which it shows higher activation index than 3 types of ground granulated blast-furnace slag.

The purpose of this study was to get basic information of using high blaine reject ash as a mineral admixtures in cement or concrete system. Compressive strength of mortar and rheological properties of slag cement with fly ash or high blaine reject ash($6,400cm^2/g$) were investigated.

This study was performed to get basic information about properties of high blaine cement for shotcrete use. Particle size distribution, setting time and compressive strength test, analysis like as SEM, DSC thermal analysis, XRD was carried out to investigate principle properties of high blaine cement. Setting time of high blaine cement was shorter and compressive strength was higher than those of ordinary portland cement (OPC). Results of analysis showed early hydration products of high blaine cement is smaller and spread widely due to increased specific surface. From the SEM observation and analysis of DSC and XRD results, it was seen that the aluminates accelerators promoted calcium aluminium hydrates while the alkali free accelerators increased ettringite and monosulfates formation. Strength and setting time measurement of cement paste with aluminate accelerator is more effective than the alkali free accelerator in reducing the setting time and increasing early strength while alkali free accelerator is more effective in increasing the strength after 7 days.

This study was performed to get basic information about properties of high blaine slag cement(HSC) to use shotcrete(or sprayed concrete and mortar). Particle size distribution, setting time and compressive strength test, analysis like as SEM, DSC thermal analysis, XRD was carried out to investigate principle properties of HSC. Setting time of HSC was delayed slightly, but influence of accelerators was more bigger than ordinary portland cement(OPC). Compressive strength of HSC at 28 days was more higher than OPC regardless of using accelerators. Results of analysis showed early period hydration products of HSC is more small and located widely, because of the interface of between cement particle and water is increased as specific surface of cement increase. From the SEM observation and analysis of DSC and XRD results, aluminates accelerators bring on some hydration products like as calcium aluminium hydrates, alkali free accelerators increases ettringite and monosulfates. Aluminates accelerators has a advantage of setting time and early strength, alkali free accelerators increases strength after 7 days.

This study investigates the fundamental properties of high strength concrete made with various blame values of cement, manufactured by the particle screening method in a pulverizing process. Test showed that concrete using lower blame of cement, such as large particle (L) and both ordinary and large particle (OL), increased the fluidity of fresh concrete. As tine progressive, it was noticeable that the specimens using ordinary cement (OPC) gradually decreased the fluidity, but the other specimens showed the sudden decline until 30 minutes, which is followed by a gradual decrease after 60 minutes. For the setting time, higher blaine of cement accelerated the initial and final setting time, especially concrete using minute size of cement (M) was 10 hours faster than OPC. Compressive strength of L exhibited similar value at 1 days as to that of strength in OPC at 3 days. Importantly, the specimens using M also revealed the similar strength value, regardless of curing temperature between $-5^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, which means that using this minute particle of cement in concrete can secure the strength development even in the lower temperature circumstance. Therefore it is clear that using OPC+M simultaneously at cold weather concreting can resist the early frost and develop the early strength of concrete.

Even the finest cement as having a specific surface area of 6.000~8.500$\textrm{cm}^2$/g (Blaine) is to convert into low-porosity hardened cement paste by the use of appropriate plasticizer. In this study, tests were carried out on such a special cement mix(fineness of 6.000$\textrm{cm}^2$/g, Ca-lignosulfonate plus k2CO3 as plasticizer and W/C=0.25) in comparison with ordinary Portland cement. Owing mainly to the high fineness of the cement powder and the low water-to-cement ratio, the hardened low-porosity cement paste showed a very tight microstructure, the pore texture of which consisted of micropores and wide pores only of small radii. The consequence of such mix was hence that the low-porosity special cement had excellent properties of early-high and very high strengths as compared to ordinary Portland cement. Its volume change when dried in the air or re-wetted, exhibited superor behaviour as well.

Recently, high fluidity concrete is becoming more prevalent. High fluidity concrete uses admixture or thickener in order to prevent separation of materials due to increased fluidity, and, especially, BS is becoming more use for reduced heat of hydration and improved long-term strength. This study examined the effect of BS on fluidity of cement paste from a rheological viewpoint. As for BS types, materials equivalent to 1 types of KS F 2563 and the cement mass was substituted by 20, 40, 60, 80%.
