This study is to present empirical data about the needs for quality security of aggregate by randomly selecting aggregate from 4 major locations including A, B, C, D province in Korea, by investigating its quality status in terms of physical properties and particle distribution based on Korean industrial standards(KS). The test results indicated that wide variance in quality, and some of aggregate samples were far below the standard, still many of them are not satisfying KS standards. In addition, the current aggregate manufacturing process that does not include inspection of particle size distribution by sieving and fineness modulus, can induce a possibility of non-KS aggregate's distribution; this provide that the current status of aggregate quality security of Korea is seriously threatened. Thus, it is important to secure each aggregate's quality level under KS standards.

A survey of concrete plants in Incheon Metropolitan City and Gyeonggi Province was used to conduct an analysis of aggregate transport distance and production forms, as well as to evaluate the features and current status of aggregates distribution. As a result, areas such as Incheon, Siheung, Bucheon, Gimpo, and Siheung, where the distance to the demand points is less than 20 km, exhibited bidirectional distribution whereas Paju, Yongin, Yangju, and Pocheon, with distances ranging from 20 to 50 km is showed a unidirectional distribution pattern supplying aggregates exclusively to Incheon. Survey on manufacturing forms, more than 85% of the gravel dispersed in the Incheon area is made up of crushed aggregates derived from rocks discharged at construction sites indicating a considerable skew in supply chain. These findings are predicted to have a detrimental influence on aggregate supply in the long run, necessitating policy changes targeted at building an optimal aggregate distribution market.

Based on the supply location, demand location, and transportation network, aggregate supply-demand characteristics and aggregate distribution status were analyzed from the results of the closest distance, service areas, and location-allocation scenarios using GIS network analysis. As a result, it was found that the average transport distance of aggregates from the supplier was 6 km on average, the average range of 7 km for sand, and 10 km for gravel was found to reach the destination. In particular, the simulated service area covers about 92% in Seoul-Gyeonggi Province, 85% in Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam Province, and more than 90% in Daejeon-Sejong-Chungnam Province. These results have a significant implication in quantitatively interpreting primary data on aggregate supply-demand. Furthermore, these results suggest the possibility of a wide-area quantitative analysis of aggregate supply regions necessary for establishing a basic aggregate plan. The results also evaluated by the site-allocation scenario show that aggregate supply may be possible through companies less than 200 with large-amounts quarries, which is the 700 companies currently supplying small amounts of aggregates on the country. Therefore, in terms of distribution of aggregates, a policy approach is needed to form an appropriate market for regions with high and low density of aggregate supply services, and the necessity of regional distribution and re-evaluation is suggested through an aggregate supply analysis demand across the country. Furthermore, in analyzing the supply-demand network for the aggregate market, additional research is needed to establish long-term policies for the aggregate industry and related industries.

The aim of research is to investigate various physical properties of ultra high strength concrete of 80MPa class using a combination of limestone aggregate and electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate. For aggregate combinations, granite and limestone are used for coarse aggregate, granite and limestone are also used for fine aggregate. And also, limestone fine aggregate is replaced by electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate of 25% and 50%. Test results indicated that flowability and compressive strength increased when limestone fine aggregate was used compared to that using granite fine aggregate due to higher modulus of elasticity by limestone. Also substitution of electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate resulted in a decrease of compressive strength slightly. It is found that the use of electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregate and limestone aggregate would be favorable for reducing the autogenous shrinkage by as much as 9~25%.

The objective of this paper is to provide integrated Korea industrial standards(KS) for concrete aggregates, which has been separately provided with ten kinds of KS, in order to improve the way of quality management of concrete aggregate and to prevent distribution of unsuitable aggregates. For the sequences of the paper, typical foreign standards related to concrete aggregates including ASTM for US, EN for EU, JIS for Japan are reviewed and compared to provide necessities and feasibilities of the paper. Based on the analysis above results, existing KS for concrete aggregates, which have been separately provided with ten kinds being lack of correlation between each KS is integrated to KS F 2526 "Aggregates for concrete" in this paper. By doing this, in terms of terminology, the expression of the aggregate, which has been currently classified into specified terminologies of aggregates depending on sources, manufacturing methods of each aggregates, is able to be integrated to single expression of the aggregate for concrete. It is believed that integrated KS presented herein provides more desirable way in terms of its better accessibility, easier revision and closer connection between each aggregate kinds.

The spherical artificial aggregates (AAs) with a diameter of 8 mm, which contains fly ashes discharged from the fluidized bed combustion in a thermal power plant and clay were manufactured by direct sintering method at $1050{\sim}1250^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes. The effect of fly ash contents on the bloating phenomenon in the AAs was analyzed. The AAs containing fly ash of the amount under 50 wt% showed the black-coring and bloating phenomena. The AAs containing fly ash of the amount over 5Owt%, however, the specific gravity was increased and the color of specimens fully changed to black. These color change phenomena were caused from the formation of FeO by the reduction reaction of almost $Fe_2O_3$ component by the excessive reducing atmosphere formed simultaneously with the rapid emission of the gases generated from the high contents of unburned carbon of with increasing the added fly ash amount. Specific gravity was decreased as fly ash contents increased in the case of sintering at the same temperature condition. Water absorption of all specimens except of the specimens containing 10 wt% fly ashes decreased with increasing sintering temperature. These were because a liquid phase was formed as the increasing the sintering temperature. In the case of the specimens manufactured in this study containing fly ashes discharged from the fluidized bed combustor in a the thermal power plant and 10~90 wt% of clay, the specific gravity was 0.9~1.8 and the water absorptivity was 8~60%, therefore it is considered that those results can be applied to the light or heavy aggregates.

The generation of construction waste has increased continuously in the recent years, becoming an important social issue. In this paper, the generation and treatment of construction waste in Korea was reviewed and a comparative analysis was performed between Korea and developed countries to suggest some efficient recycling strategies. The generation of construction waste has increased 4 times from 10 million ton/yr in 1996 to 40.3 million ton/yr in 2002. Of the construction waste generated in 2002, concrete debris waste occupied 60.4%. Approximately 14.5% of the construction waste is landfilled, 2,0% incinerated and 83.4% recycled, then the recycling rate might be relatively high. However, there is room for increasing landfill diversion. It is somewhat important to strenghten incentives for the outstanding recycling business. It is also needed to improve the recycled aggregate quality standard and impurity content standard. It is desirable to toughen the facility standard for the recycling aggregate business and the quality standard for the intermediate treatment business. Also, market for the intermediate product of the recycled aggregate should be activated. Finally, more recycling-oriented regulations governing the construction waste has to be developed with the efficient public education program.

1970년대 이후 도시 중심의 급속한 공업화 정책을 추진한 결과, 농촌의 저발전 문제에 직면하고 있다. 1980년대 중반부터 이에 대한 대응전략으로서 농공단지 개발을 통한 산업유치, 농산물 가공산업 개발 및 유통체계 개선, 관광농업 개발 등이 논의되어 왔다. 오늘날에 와서는 WTO 체제 하에서 농산물 무역자유화가 보편적인 규범으로 자리잡아 가면서 이러한 변화를 더욱 재촉하고 있다. 이 글의 목적은 농공단지와 관광농원을 중심으로 우리 나라 농산업 발전과정을 고찰하고, 향후 발전 방향을 제시하는 데 있다. 농공단지와 관광농원 육성사업의 특성과 성패요인을 분석하는 데 있어서 이용된 자료는 주로 2차자료이다. 농공단지조성사업의 성과에 대한 많은 논란에도 불구하고, 개량적인 지표는 그것이 농촌지역경제 활성화에 직간접적으로 공헌하였음을 보여준다. 농촌노동력의 66.1%를 고용하고, 이들에게 1인당 월 평균 70만원 이상의 소득을 제공해 주었으며, 서비스업 등 관련산업의 성장에도 영향을 미쳤기 때문이다. 그러나 농공단지조성사업은 많은 문제점도 안고 있다. 농촌지역에 숙련 노동자가 부족하며 직업훈련 기회 및 창업지원 프로그램이 도시지역에 집중되어 있다. 또한 입주 기업이 농산물이나 골재 등 현지 자원을 활용하는 경우가 매우 적은 것으로 나타나고 있다. 이에 대한 대응책으로서 농촌 주민들이 손쉽게 참여할 수 있는 직업훈련 프로그램을 개발하여 제공해야 하며, 경영과 시장정보 분석 등을 기술적으로 지원할 수 있는 효과적인 지도체계를 구축해야 한다. 관광농업은 새롭게 떠오르는 산업이다. 아직 기반이 취약하지만 국가 경제성장과 도시화 진행 추이에 비추어 볼 때 관광농원은 점차 증가할 것으로 전망된다. 하지만 이 산업의 지속적인 발전을 위해서는 정책의 유연성을 확보해야 하고, 농원운영자의 경영능력이 향상되어야 하며, 수요의 계절성을 극복해야 하는 등의 과제를 안고 있다. 또한 공동운영 형태의 농원에 있어서는 참여자들을 효과적으로 조직하고, 토지소유권 분쟁을 해소해야 하는 문제가 있다. 무엇보다도 아직 이 산업의 기반이 취약하다는 전제 위에 점진적이고 지속적인 재정과 기술지원이 요청되고 있다. 다양한 운영 프로그램의 개발과 지역내 네트웍 형태의 연계개발 방식의 채택이 필요하며, 관광농원이나 농어촌휴양지 개발지역에서는 산업개발 및 주거지 개발계획이 관광여건 조성과 총체적으로 연계되어야 할 것이다.

토양에 방치된 농업용 폐비닐은 거의 분해가 되지 않으며, 수분과 공기의 유통을 차단하고 토양 내 미생물들의 흐름을 막아 토양을 더욱 황폐화시키게 된다. 불법적인 소각 때는 산불의 위험에다 다이옥신, 염소 및 염화수소가스 등을 배출해 대기오염을 유발시킨다. 폐비닐을 열분해과정으로 처리하여 아주 작은 입자로 미분쇄하고 겔상태로 용융된 원료물질속으로 완전히 균일하게 혼합하여 골재로 활용하는 과정에서 가스상과 액상의 여러 가지 중간생성물질이 발생하게 되며, 농약의 살포에 의한 잔류농약 둥 인체에 유해가능한 요소들이 있을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 개발공정이나 제품에서 인체에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 물질에 대하여 유해성을 평가하고 용응 겔 및 가스와 오일에 함유된 화학성분을 분석하였기에 보고하고자 한다 시험동물의 혈액생화학적 검사에서는 농업용 폐비닐물질 및 열분해 파생물질의 혈청 Cholesterol, 혈청 Alanine aminotranseferse와 Aspartate aminotransferse, Albumin 수치, LDH, Glucose, Uric acid, A/C 비 등의 생화학적 활성도를 측정한 결과들에서는 농업용 폐비닐물질을 투여한 시험군에서 나타난 결과와 비교하여 열분해 파생물질을 투여한 시험군에서 나타난 결과가 감소된 통계결과를 보였다. 이 결과들은 농업용 폐비닐물질을 투여한 시험군보다 열분해 파생물질을 투여한 시험군의 외부독성물질 투여에 의한 생체독성의 영향과 생체에 가해진 스트레스강도가 작았음을 의미하는 것이다. 잔류농약분석에서는 시료로부터 농약을 추출하는 용매추출과정, 시료추출물 중 공존하는 방해성분을 제거하는 정제과정, 폐비닐물질 및 열분해 파생물질 성분을 100mg/kg 이상군의 투여 후 시험동물의 부검시 모든 투여군에서 독성소견이 인정되지 않았다. 이와 같은 결과로 열분해 및 연소과정에서 발생하는 파생물질의 분석결과를 응용하여 대기오염을 방지하고 인체 유해물질을 차단하는 공해 방지 설계의 기초자료를 제안하고자 한다.
