Ready-mixed shotcrete that mixed with high quality aggregate and can improve construction quality is produced in a dry mortar plant and transported to construction sites. Because of using aggregate that produced in a special plant, Ready-mixed shotcrete has many advantages : good grain-size distribution, minimum stone powder, high quality and standardization material, etc. In this basic study different from the existing study that limited to additive and accelerator, the improvement of aggregate quality was tried to upgrade the shotcrete performance. The investigation about the construction conditions of shotcrete was performed and the result of an opinion poll was analyzed for a good grasp of the problems in domestic shotcrete quality. Pilot Plant Test was also performed to minimize the material segregation in plant manufacturing process. In additions, the field test was performed to find the optimum contents of synthetic fiber, appearing the same flexible toughness with that of steel fiber, and to find the optimum replacement ratio of blast furnace slag.

In this Application Study based on the result of the Basic Study, the field test was performed to compare the quality of Ready-mixed shotcrete with that of the existing field mix shotcrete, and the long-term durability was evaluated as tunnel supporting. The plant manufacturing system was also designed to produce standardization materials, and the prototype products were produced with that system. The All-in-one silo mixer was designed and the field construction system using the All-in-one silo mixer was proposed to be most effectively applied Ready-mixed Shotcrete in construction fields. And the application of Ready-mixed Shotcrete was confirmed that more superior to the field mix Shotcrete by evaluating the Constructability and Economics.

This study was carried out to investigate and analyse the influence of maximum size of coarse aggregate and quality control of aggregate on the properties of shotcrete through the laboratory and field test. From the results of the test, as the maximum size of coarse aggregate decreased from 13 mm to 8 mm, plasticity property declined and compressive strength and dynamic modulus of elasticity of hardened concrete increased remarkably, so it was found that the aggregate size 8 mm was superior to 13, 10 mm in fluidity, constructability and durability. Therefore, it was advisable for well maximum size of coarse aggregate to apply to the 8mm aggregates through the Ready-mixed Method for quality control and minimum segregation.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the applicability of Granulated Blast Furnace Slag to the development of the Powdered Ready-mixed Shotcrete. First of all, after accomplishing SEM analysis and Leaching Test, the laboratory and field experiments for evaluating the utility of Granulated Blast Furnace Slag were performed. As a result of SEM and Leaching test, the environmental stability was confirmed. That is, non-detection of harmful lists and dense shotcrete structure result from mixing Granulated Blast Furnace Slag. As a result of lab. and field test, Blast Furnace Slag is superior to Plain Batch in improving strength and durability. And it will be able to improve to some extent the problem caused by the delayed reaction of existing Granulated Blast Furnace Slag with alkali activated material. Also the proper amount of Granulated Blast Furnace Slag is estimated to be under 30%. Finally, it is possible that Granulated Blast Furnace Slag can apply to economical recycling and development of the Ready-mixed Shotcrete for its price is only about 5% of Silica-finne's price.

As the Ready-mixed Shotcrete using Powdered Polymer Dispersion, Shotcrete Matrix as totally shotcrete gel that a part of second binder in Shotcrete materials is dense. Also, Ready-mixed Shotcrete is showed the decreasing Rebound and rising Durability. Therefore, it is possible that Ready-mixed Shotcrete for High-Strength and High-Waterproof can apply to the Powdered Polymer Dispersion.

Ready-mixed shotcrete mixed with high quality materials and can be controled shotcrete quality is producted in plants and transported to construction fields, so do not need a field batch plant. In this study, the field construction system that can be applied Ready-mixed Shotcrete to construction fields was proposed, and the all-in-one silo that was the key component of the field construction system was design. It was performed to evaluate the constructability that the field construction process analysis in case of applying a field batch plant and the all-in-one silo, the cost analysis of the material production and transport in a road tunnel was also performed to evaluate the economic feasibility of Ready-mixed shotcret.

In this study, through the Batch Plant in field which is carrying out in the country, this research is going to grope the development of Ready-mixed Shotcrete that can improve the construction of shotcrete, and long-term durability. Accordingly, in this study, the Batch Plant in field which is only for shotcrete will be chosen in random so that can be aware the problems of the Batch Plant in field, and when the results come out, the shotcrete system will be prepared that is based on the results of rsearch, and also can be used in preparation index of shotcrete. Moreover, the results will be able to improve an efficent tool that can increase shotcrete quality.

A variation of pore structure of shotcrete matrix was experimented by Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry, and the relation with compressive strength was also examined. As a result of the Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry(MIP) test, RM-P1 Batch the macropore diameter of the RM-BFS2 and RM-BFS3 Batch than to have a relatively macropore can see a lot of long-term durability performance degradation. Also, K and N Batch the current is applied to the mine if the factors on shotcrete durability performance of the macropore volume of the entire appears to be a long-term durability performance in the fall.

In this paper, The Ready-mixed Shotcrete which Factory with automatic production system is made Materials using synthetic fiber is evaluated the field application. Result of whole test, synthetic fiber(PP, PVA) is indicated almost equal result of steel fiber by rebound rate, compressive strength and bending test. especially, PP fiber(40mm, 12kg) is showed that bending strength and toughness is better than steel fiber, also I reason in that field application of synthetic fiber(PP, PVA) is proved.

In recent years, the large-scale shaft have been appling in domestic mine for mass production using a large machine, the safety of mine also have been increasing. And the new trial that shotcrete of tunnel field was apply to mine support was progressed. But, the conditions of domestic mine was different from that of tunnel, so, the batch plant of tunnel could not be installed in mine field because of low economical efficiency and difficulty for selection of site. Ready-mixed Shotcrete that mixed with high quality materials and could be controled shotcrete quality is producted in plants and transported to field, so do not need to batch plant. In this study, The Field test of the Ready-mixed Shotcrete was performed in the large-scale mine and was compared with the quality of Field mix shotcrete. As the result of the Field test, compressive strength and rebound of Ready-mixed Shotcrete were superior to these of Field mix shotcrete.
