The concrete pipe used to distribute irrigation water to the right place now available is commonly made up of cement , sand, earth, pebble, etc. These materials with right ratio and right amount of water were mixed and squeezed through the pipe-making machine called vertical squeezed pipe-making machine, and then a cement prefabricated pipe is produced . This kinds of pipe has been expanding by leaps and bounds. Being little cement contents and low cost, the length of pipe is 1.0m or so with weight of 50kg, which is easy to be made and to be transported. The demolish pressure of it is 0.2 MPa or so, which meets the needs of agriculture irrigation . The buried pipe irrigation system, has been popularized in Jining Municipal , Shandong Province. By the year of 1995 , the irrigation area under pipe conveyancesystem usign this type of pipe has reached 74000 hectares. By calculation, about 27.7million ㎥ water, 2.88 million kWh power , 0.167 million man power and 1528 hectares cu tivated land will be saved one year, adding value of agriculture output increased by 10 million kg. The total economic benefits amount to 0.92 million US$ a year. The paper presents the pipe making course and its application on a large scale area.

In this study, engineering property tests were conducted for cement milk used as a filling materials in the bored piles method. For this purpose, various water/cement ratio specimens were produced on the basis of standard specimen specified in highway corporation specifications. The unconfined compressive strength, point load strength, elasticity modulus, poisson's ratio test was performed according to the age. As a test result, injection height for productions of cement milk specimens was defined ratios. Correlation coefficient K of the unconfined compressive strength and point load strength were $K_7=4.55{\sim}13.65$ in age 7 days, and $K_{28}=5.28{\sim}16.84$ in age 28 days. When water / cement ratio is 65-150%, the elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio significantly increased and decreased regardless of age. In addition, the formulae were proposed for unconfined compressive strength, point load strength, a correlation coefficient of unconfined compressive strength, point load strength, elastic modulus, and poisson's ratio for each age.

The mechanical characteristics and compressibility of Light-Weighted Foam Soil (LWFS) are investigated. LWFS is composed of the dredged soil from offshore, cement and foam to reduce the unit-weight and increase compressive strength. For this purpose, the unconfined compression tests and triaxial compression tests are carried out on the prepared specimens of LWFS with various conditions such as initial water contents, cement contents, and confining stresses. The test results of LWFS indicated that the stress-strain relationship and the compressive strength are strongly influenced by the cement contents rather than the intial water contents of the dredged soils. In this study, the normalized factor considering the ratio of initial water contents, cement contents, and foam contents is suggested to evaluate the relationship between compressive strength and normalized factor.

This study is aimed at comparing the effect of cement mortar made of sulfuric acid treated ISO standard sand with that of cement mortar made of normal ISO standard sand. In the water absorption test, water absorption of standard sand increases with the increase of immersion time in sulfuric acid solution. The results show that at the water cement ratio of 0.5, the longer the standard sand is immersed in sulfuric acid, the greater the compressive strength of the cement mortar sample.

No-fines concrete is concrete from which the fine aggregate fraction has been omitted. The concrete so formed, consisting only of coarse aggregate, cement, and water, has large voids uniformly distributed through its mass. This study was performed to obtain the basic data which can be applied to the use of no-fines concrete. The data was based on the properties of no-fines concrete depending upon various mixing ratios. The results obtained were summarized as follows. 1. Test result of the consistency, suitable water-cement ratio was increased with the increasing of mixing ratio. 2. At the suitable water-cement ratio, the highest strengths were showed. But it gradually was decreased with the increasing of mixing ratio and strengths are considerably lower than that of conventional portland cement concrete. 3. The relations between compressive and tensile strength were highly singnificant as a straight line shaped. The strength ratio was decreased with the increasing of mixing ratio and considerably lower than of conventional portland cement concrete. 4. Bulk density was decreased with the increasing of the mixing ratio, and was similar to that of the conventional portland cement concrete at mixing ratio 1:4. 5. The relations between strength and bulk density were highly significant as a straight line shaped. The decreasing ratio of strengths was higher than that of bulk density.

This study investigated the fluidity, heat of hydration, setting time, strength development, and characteristics of hydration and pozzolanic reactions of high-strength high-volume ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBFS) blended cement pasts with the water-to-binder ratio of 20% by experiments, and analyzed the effects of the replacement ratio and fineness of GGBFS on the hydration and pozzolanic reaction. The results show that, in the high-strength mixtures with low water-to-binder ratio, the initial hydration is accelerated due to the "dilution effect" which means that the free water to react with cement increases by the replacement of cement by GGBFS, and thus, strengths at from 3 to 28 days were higher than those of plain mixtures with ordinary Portland cement only. Whereas it was found that the long term strength development is limited because the hydration reaction rates rapidly decreases with ages and the degree of pozzolanic reaction is lowered due to insufficient supply of calcium hydroxide according to large replacement of cement by GGBFS. Also, the GGBFS with higher fineness absorbs more free water, and thus it decreases the fluidity, the degree of hydration, and strength. These results are different with those of normal strength concrete, and therefore, should be verified for concrete mixtures. Also, to develop the high-strength concrete with high-volume of GGBFS, the future research to enhance the long-term strength development is needed.

Recently, the mortar crack on floor is very serious in construction field, e.g. the crack due to plastic shrinkage and the crack due to drying shrinkage. To prevent this kind of crack, optimum mix proportions not only satisfying the required workability but also minimizing the unit water content were selected. And the expansion admixtures were used to compensate shrmkage of mortar. The water /cement ratio used in construction field is about 64% by the investigation. Even if the water /cement ratio of mortar is reduced, floor mortar is still able to have the required workability by the appropriate use of the fine aggregate with high fineness mo'dulus and superplastizer. The equations hetween mortar flow and water /cement ratio, sand /cement ratio, fineness modulus of fine aggregate were proposed in this study. And the proposed equation may provide available mix proportions of floor mortar.

In this study, a series of uniaxial unconfined compression test and constant-head test were performed to investigate the mechanical characteristics of porous concrete using recycled-aggregate for the varying unit weight and water-cement ratio. To enhance the permeability of the porous concrete, the recycled-aggregate with similar grain size in the range of $40{\pm}5mm$ was used and water-cement ratio that leads to the lean-mix was adapted. The mechanical characteristics of the porous concrete cured for 3 days were examined; the compressive strength and $E_{50}$ showed their maximum values with 40% water-cement ratio and $1.8t/m^3$ unit weight and the permeability coefficient was averagely measured in the range of $0.9{\times}10^0cm/sec$ regardless of water-cement ratio and unit weight.

The results of evaluating steel corrosion in concrete containing chloride content of various levels indicated that the more chloride content in concrete leads to the lower potential and higher corrosion current density. However, the open circuit potential of steel varied with time and exposure condition, and the corelation between the open circuit potential and corrosion current density was not obvious. In order to determine the critical threshold content of chloride of steel corrosion in concrete, the concept of average corrosion current density was employed. The range of critical chloride content in portland cement concretes was about $1.56{\sim}1.77%$($Cl^-$, %, wt of cement content) along with water-cement ratio, and higher water-cement ratio resulted in reduction in critical threshold chloride content.
