The pH of cement-based materials (CBMs) is an important factor for their durability, sustainability, and long service life. Currently, the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is becoming mandatory due to economic, environmental, and sustainable issues. There is a decreasing trend in pH of CBMs due to incorporation of SCMs. The determination of numerical values of pH is very important for various low and high volume SCMs blended cement mortars for the better understanding of different defects and durability issues during their service life. In addition, the effect of cement hydration and pozzolanic reaction of SCMs on the pH should be determined at initial and later ages. In this study, the effect of low and high-volume fly ash (FA) and ground granulated ballast furnace slag (GGBFS) cement mortars in different curing conditions on their pH values has been determined. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) was carried out to support the findings from pH measurements. In addition, thermal conductivity (k-value) and strength activity indices of these cement mortars were discussed. The results showed that pH values of all blended cement mortars were less than ordinary Portland cement (OPC) mortar in all curing conditions used. There was a decreasing tendency in pH of all mortars with passage of time. In addition, the pH of cement mortars was not only dependent on the quantity of Ca(OH)₂. The effect of adding SCMs on the pH value of cement mortar should be monitored and measured for both short and long terms.

우리나라의 많은 건설 공사에서는 건축물이 고층화 되면서, 공기단축 및 물의 처리 곤란 등의 이유로 고강도 콘크리트일지라도 습윤양생을 실시하지 않고 공사를 진행하는 경우가 존재한다. 이와 같이 건조 상태로 양생하게 되면 압축강도 감소, 건조수축 및 자기수축 등 수축변화가 크게 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 또한 본 연구팀에서는 기존의 연구로서 유지류를 콘크리트에 혼합할 경우 비누화 반응을 이용하여 콘크리트의 자기수축 저감 및 내구성 향상에 대한 연구를 진행한바 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 양생방법을 비양생 건조, 유화처리정제식용유(ERCO) 도포 후 건조, 7일 수중양생 후 건조 및 28일 수중양생 후 건조 등 양생 방법 변화에 따른 혼화재 다량치환 모르타르의 압축강도 특성, 수분증발에 따른 수축변화 특성에 대하여 분석하였다. 실험결과는 양생방법으로 비양생 건조를 실시하게 되면 28일 수중양생을 실시하였을 경우보다 약 50% 전후의 강도저하와 1.9배의 수축 길이변화율 증가로 나타나, 혼화재 다량치환 고강도 모르타르에 있어 습윤양생이 매우 중요하게 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다. 단, ERCO 도포의 경우는 강도 및 수축변화측면에서 무양생인 건조보다는 우수하지만 7일 수중양생 후 건조보다는 성능이 저하하는 것으로 나타났다.

Using industrial wastes and construction and demolition (C&D) wastes is potentially advantageous for concrete production in terms of sustainability improvement. In this paper, a sustainable Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) made with industrial wastes and C&D wastes was proposed by considerably replacing natural counterparts with recycled coarse aggregates (RCAs) and supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) (i.e., Fly ash (FA), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and silica fume (SF)). A total of 12 SCC mixes with various RCAs and different combination SCMs were prepared, which comprise binary, ternary and quaternary mixes. The mechanical properties in terms of compressive strength and static elasticity modulus of recycled aggregates (RA-SCC) mixes were determined and analyzed. Microstructural study was implemented to analyze the reason of improvement on mechanical properties. By means of life cycle assessment (LCA) method, the environmental impacts of RA-SCC with various RCAs and SCMs were quantified, analyzed and compared in the system boundary of "cradle-to-gate". In addition, the comparison of LCA results with respect to mechanical properties was conducted. The results demonstrate that the addition of proposed combination SCMs leads to significant improvement in mechanical properties of quaternary RA-SCC mixes with FA, GGBS and SF. Furthermore, quaternary RA-SCC mixes emit lowest environmental burdens without compromising mechanical properties. Thus, using the combination of FA, GGBS and SF as cement substitution to manufacture RA-SCC significantly improves the sustainability of SCC by minimizing the depletion of cement and non-renewable natural resources.

The use of sustainable technologies such as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), and/or recycled materials is expected to positively affect the performance of concrete mixtures. However, it is imperative to qualify and implement such mixtures in practice, if the required specifications of their intended application are met. This paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) containing sustainable technologies. Twelve mixes were prepared with different combinations of fly ash, slag, and recycled asphalt pavement (RAP). Fresh and hardened concrete properties were measured, as expected the inclusion of the sustainable technologies affected both fresh and hardened concrete properties. Analysis of the experimental data indicated that inclusion of RAP not only reduces the ultimate strength, but it also affected the compressive strength development rate. The addition of RAP to mixes showed a consistent effect, with a drop in strength after 3, 14, and 28 days as the RAP content increased from 0 to 50 %. However, most of the mixes satisfied SCC fresh properties requirements, including mixes with up to 50 % RAP. Moreover, several mixes satisfied compressive strength requirement for pavements and bridges, those mixes included relatively high percentages of SCMs and RAP.

In this research, the optimum combination of fly ash (FA) and blast furnace slag (BS) was deduced by analyzing the performance of high volume supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) cement mortar depending on various combinations of cement, FA, and BS. As a result, increased workability was shown with increased the portion of FA, while air content, setting time, and compressive strength were decreased.

As a previous research, improved durability of concrete by filling capillary pores with waste cooking oil was suggested as a method of controlling carbonation of the concrete replaced high volume of SCMs. on the other hand, the emulsified refined waste cooking oil for better mixing performance had a drawback of reducing air content related with decreasing freeze-thawing resistance. As a solution of this problem, surface applying method was suggested instead of adding in mixing process, and in this research, the performance regarding concrete durability are evaluated comparing emulsified refined cooking oil with water-repelling agent.

The rheological behaviour of high strength self compacting concrete (HS-SCC) studied through an experimental investigation is presented in this paper. The effect of variation in supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) $vis-{\grave{a}}-vis$ four different types of processed crushed sand as fine aggregates is studied. Apart from the ordinary Portland cement (OPC), the SCMs such as fly ash (FA), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) ultrafine slag (UFS) and micro-silica (MS) are used in different percentages keeping the mix -paste volume and flow of concrete, constant. The combinations of rheology, strength and durability are equally important for selection of mixes in respect of high-rise building constructions. These combinations are referred to as the rheo-strength and rheo-durability which is scientifically linked to performance based rating. The findings show that the fineness of the sands and types of SCM affects the rheo-strength and rheo-durability performance of HS-SCC. The high amount of fines often seen in fine aggregates contributes to the higher yield stress. Further, the mixes with processed sand is found to offer better rheology as compared to that of mixes made using unwashed crushed sand, washed plaster sand, washed fine natural sand. The micro silica and ultra-fine slag conjunction with washed crushed sand can be a good solution for high rise construction in terms of rheo-strength and rheo-durability performance.

본 연구는 폐유지류를 중심으로 한 도포제 종류 및 도포시기에 따른 혼화재 다량치환 콘크리트의 탄산화 및 염해저항성에 미치는 영향에 관하여 실험 연구한 것이다. 즉 내구성 향상방안으로서, 도포시기를 탈형 즉시와 28일 수중양생후의 변화를 주고 도포제는 Plain인 Control을 포함한 ERCO(유화처리정제유지류), RCO(정제유지류), WR(발수제), ERCO+WR의 5가지 수준에 대하여 비교 실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과 도포시기에 따른 탄산화 및 내염해 저항성의 경우 28일 수중양생 후 도포의 경우 탄산화 및 염화물 침투 깊이가 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었고, 또한, 도포제는 ERCO, RCO, ERCO+WR, WR의 순으로 탄산화 및 염화물 침투깊이가 늦게 진행되어, 특히 ERCO의 도포가 탄산화 및 염화물 억제효과에 가장 우수한 것을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 매스 매트 콘크리트에 있어, 상 하부를 구분하여 타설하는 실무조건을 고려하여, 상부 및 하부배합의 혼화재 종류와 치환율을 동일 및 달리하는 배합 조건 변화로부터 최적치를 도출한 다음, 실구조체에 적용하여 해석치와 실측치간을 비교하므로서, 혼화재를 활용한 매스콘크리트의 효율적인 수화열균열 저감방안을 제안하고자 하였다. 연구결과 먼저, 현장적용 전 사전검토를 위해 Midas gen을 이용하여 수화열 해석을 실시한 결과 상부는 OPC : FA = 85 : 15 배합, 하부는 OPC : FA : BS = 50 : 20 : 30 배합을 본 대상 구조물 매스 매트콘크리트의 최적배합으로결정하였다. 이를 적용한 실제 현장의 시험결과 슬럼프, 공기량 및 압축강도는 모두 목표범위를 만족하였다. 또한, 봄철 실제 현장의 매스 매트콘크리트의 온도특성으로 최적배합의 경우는 중심부의 최고 온도 약 $59^{\circ}C$, 표층부 온도 약 $49^{\circ}C$로 나타나, 약 $10^{\circ}C$의 온도차가 나타났으며, 수화열 해석결과 약 1.4의 균열지수를 나타내었다. 따라서, 실무를 고려한 매스 매트콘크리트의 경우 상 하부 타설 콘크리트간의 저발열 배합정도를 달리 고려하는 수화발열량차 공법적용은 침하균열 방지 및 수화열 균열제어에 효과적인 방법이 될 것으로 사료된다.
