Strength prediction and correlation of concrete is done using experimental and analytical methods. Main objective is to correlate the experimental and simulated values of compressive strength of concrete mix using Fly Ash (FA) and Silica Fume (SF) by partial replacement of cement in concrete. Mix proportion was determined using IS method for M40grade concrete. Hundred and forty-seven cubes were cast and tested using Universal Testing Machine (UTM). Genetic Algorithm (GA) model was developed using C++ program to simulate the compressive strength of concrete for various proportions of FA and SF replacements individually at 3% increments. Experiments reveal that 12 percent silica fume replacement produced maximum compressive strength of 35.5 N/mm², 44.5 N/mm² and 54.8 N/mm² moreover 9 percent fly ash replacement produced a maximum strength of 31.9 N/mm², 37.6 N/mm² and 51.8 N/mm² during individual material replacement of concrete mix. Correlation coefficient for each curing period of fly ash and silica fume replaced mix were acquired using trend lines. The correlation coefficient is found to be approximately 0.9 in FA and SF replaced mix irrespective of the mix proportion and age of concrete. A higher and positive correlation was found between the experimental and simulated values irrespective of the curing period in all the replacements.

Porous concrete having continuous voids is gaining more interest as an ecological material. It has several useful functions such as water and air permeability, sound absorption, etc. Its strengths are considerably lower than those of conventional concrete due to the large and continuous voids in it. This study has been carried out to investigate the influence of mix factors and mixture proportion of aggregate on the strengths and water permeability of porous concrete. And it has been carried out to investigate the evaluation of void of porous concrete by the ultra-sonic pulse velocity. The results f this study are as follows: 1) The theoretical void ratio has greater influence than any other factor on the strengths and water permeability of porous concrete. And it is a little affected by the replacement proportion of silica-fume and mixture proportion of aggregate. 2) Because the coefficients of correlation between the void ratio and ultra-sonic pulse velocity were relatively high, it will be possible that the void ratio is predicted by the ultra-sonic pulse velocity.

In this paper, to make ultra-high strength SFRCC with the range of compressive strength 180MPa, it was investigated the constitute factors of ultra-high strength SFRCC influenced on the compressive strength. The experimental variables were water-cementitious ratio, replacement of silica fume, size and proportion of sand, type and replacement of filling powder, and using of steel fiber in ultra-high strength SFRCC. As a result, in water-binder ratio 0.18, we could make ultra-high strength SFRCC with compressive strength 180MPa through using of silica fume, quartz sand with below 0.5mm, filling powder and steel fiber.

An alternative type of building system with masonry units is extensively used nowadays to reduce the emission of CO2 and embodied energy. Long-term performance of such structures has become essential for sustaining the building technology. This study aims to assess the strength and durability properties of concrete prepared with unprocessed bagasse ash (BA) and silica fume (SF). A mix proportion of 1:3:3 was used to cast concrete cubes of size $100mm{\times}100mm{\times}100mm$ with various replacement levels of cement and tested. The cubes were cast with zero slump normally adopted in the manufacturing of hollow blocks. The cubes were exposed to acid attack, alkaline attack and sulphate attack to evaluate their durability. The mass loss and damages to concrete for all cases of exposures were determined at 30, 60, and 90 days, respectively. Then, the residual compressive strength for all cases was determined at the end of 90 days of durability test. The results showed that there was slight difference in mass loss before and after exposure to chemical attack in all the cases. Though the appearance was slightly different than the normal concrete the residual weight was not affected. The compressive strength of 10% bagasse ash (BA) as a replacement for cement, with 10% SF as admixture resulted in better strength than the normal concrete. Hence concrete with 10% replacement with BA along with 10% SF as admixture was considered to be durable. Besides solid concrete cubes, hollow blocks using the same concrete were casted and tested simultaneously to explore the possibility of production of masonry units.

The service life of agricultural concrete structures is designed in about 30 to 100 years, but actual service lift is estimated in an average 18 years. Therefore, as the service life of the agricultural concrete structures increases, necessity of repair by aging from various environment condition exposure increases. This study was to determinate the optimum mix proportion of latex modified repair mortar and to improve the durability performance of agricultural concrete structures. The physical and mechanical tests of latex modified repair mortar were performed. Tests of flow, compressive strength, flexural strength and bond strength tests were conducted. Test results show that the optimum nex proportion of latex modified repair mortar, when used in 5% latex volume fraction (weight of cement), 1.5% antifoaming agent (weight of latex), 0.2% PVA fiber volume fraction, 1:2 (binder-sand ratio), 10% silica fume replacement ratio (weight of cement), could result in best performance for the repair of agricultural concrete structures.

In this study we measured the changes according to time respectively on the basis of 0, 30, 60 and 90 minutes, taking into consideration the decline in fluidity of concrete according to elapsed time to analyze manufacturing capability of batcher plant according to elapsed time of ready-mixed concrete manufactured in batcher plant, and offer basic data for mixture design of ultra-high strength concrete. The proportion of water-binder was 23.55, water content was 160kg/m3, proportion of replacement of crushed sand was 0, 20 and 40% at 3 level, and we applied to the same condition of triaxial component using blast furnace slag powder and silica fume as admixture. And to meet the demand of certain fluidity, we measured respectively on property before and after hardening of ultra-high strength concrete using superplasticizer. As a result of experiment, before hardening of ultra-high strength concrete showed the best fluidity in conditions of crushed sand replacement rates of 20% and superplasticizer composition of 1.95%, but it appeared that fluidity drops as time goes by in the same composition condition. And it appeared that when it comes to hardened, the changes of compression strength according to elapsed time by crushed sand replacement rates were within 1MPa. Therefore, it turned out that the difference of strength according to elapsed time was low and compression strength of 280dys in composition mentioned above appeared highly as 88MPa.

본 연구는 고로슬래그 미분말 (GGBFS),플라이애시 (FA) 그리고 실리카 퓸( SF)을 각각 세 종류와 네 종류로 시멘트와 혼합한 다성분계 시멘트의 특성 연구에 관한 것이다. 물-결합재 비는 0.45 이다. 본 연구에서는 혼화재료를 시멘트의 50%와 60% 비율의 두 가지로 치환하였으며, 각 배합에 대해서 GGBFS는 20~40%, FA는 5~35% 그리고 SF는 0~10%를 배합하여 기초특성에 관한 실험을 수행하였다. GGBFS/FA 비와 SF 치환율에 따른 다성분계 시멘트에 대해 압축강도, 물 흡수율, 초음파 속도 (UPV), 건조수축 그리고 XRD 분석을 수행하였다. 실험결과 SF를 치환함에 따라 흡수율은 감소하고 압축강도, UPV와 건조수축은 증가하였다. 이러한 압축강도, 흡수율 그리고 UPV 등의 결과는 SF의 혼합률이 증가함에 따라 용출된 수산화칼슘을 소비하여 CSH의 형성에 기여하기 때문이다. 각 SF 혼합률에서 GGBFS/FA 비가 증가함에 따라 강도, 흡수율 그리고 UPV도 증가하였다. GGBFS/FA 비와 강도, 흡수율, UPV는 선형적인 관계를 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통해 GGBFS/FA비와 SF 치환율은 다성분계 시멘트의 기초 특성에 중요한 요소임을 발견할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 순환잔골재 사용량 증대를 목적으로 순환잔골재만 혼입한 고강도 모르타르를 제조하고 이의 물성을 분석하여, 순환잔골재의 구조용 골재로서의 활용가능성을 파악하고자 하였다. 시멘트, 실리카퓸 및 고로슬래그 미분말을 함유한 물결합 재비 0.2 시멘트 모르타르에, 나노실리카를 추가로 혼입하고 이의 치환율을 변화시켜, 나노실리카 혼입량 변화가 순환잔골재 모르타르의 물성 변화에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 시험체 제작 시 결합재 내부에서의 나노실리카 분산도 향상을 위해, 초음파 처리한 수분산된 나노실리카 수용액을 활용하였고, 나노실리카의 혼입률은 1 %까지 변화시켜 모르타르 플로우, 공극률 및 압축강도의 변화를 평가하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면, 나노실리카의 혼입률이 증가할수록 모르타르 플로우는 감소하였으며, 나노실리카 혼입률 0.75 %까지는 혼입율을 높일수록 공극률은 감소하고 압축강도는 증가하였으나, 치환율 1 %에서는 공극률의 상승 및 압축강도의 저하가 관찰되어, 나노실리카 혼입률 0.75 %가 성능 최적화를 위해 가장 적절한 혼입 비율인 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
