In this study, the quality of blast furnace slag and the engineering properties of recycled aggregate based mortar with variable replacement of blast furnace slag have been focused. Blast furnace slag(BS) manufactured in various areas in Korea were prepared for this study. For the investigation results, 4 types(among the all of 9 types) of the experimental results were identified as below the standard level when using blast furnace slag chosen from different factories. Especially the particle size of the blast furnace slag was considered as the largest problem. When using BS in the recycled aggregates based mortar, the increase amount of blast furnace slag, increased the fluidity but delayed the setting time and decreased strength at early age. Based on the relationship of the amount of BS and the engineering properties of mortar, this study found that the amount of $SO_3$ and L.O.I affect the setting time, 3 days strength and 91 days strength to the certain standard level.

The utilization of calcined clay, in the form of meta kaolin, as a pozzolanic for mortar and concrete has received considerable attention in recent years. so, the influence of waste concrete sludge and meta kaolin on cement concrete strength has been stud

Clay bricks with lime mortar are recently popular since they are eco- and environment-friendly construction material being capable of air flow and moisture movement. However, there is little study on those of clay brick an lime mortar while relatively many researches on the structural characteristics of concrete bricks with cement mortar are available in Korea. Furthermore, the current Korean Building Code of masonry structures was established on the base of the Foreign Codes which does not reflect Korean masonry construction circumstance, such as material characteristics and section properties. To overcome these problems, experiments of masonry structures constructed using clay bricks with lime mortar were carried out to evaluate their structural characteristics such as, prism compressive strength, adhesive strength and diagonal tensile(shear) strength. Also this research compares the mechanical characteristics between clay bricks with lime mortar and concrete bricks with cement mortar to provide information that will be used for revisions of the domestic standards for masonry structures. As masonry structures constructed with clay bricks and lime mortar show different aspects over the ones constructed with concrete bricks and cement mortar, we suggest estimation equation of prism compressive strength and diagonal tensile strength on masonry structures constructed with clay bricks and lime mortar.

Converter slag was reduced and modified with the addition of 5~10 weight percent of $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$ and $SiO_2+Al_2O_3$. which was water quenched and used as a cement additives. Additive was mixed from 10 to 30 weight percent with ordinary portland cement and made 9 kinds of mixed cement. Compressive strength of mixed cement mortar was tested md compared with com pressive strength of ordinary portland cement mortar. Effect of hydration reaction on the compressive strength of cement mortar was investigated by means of x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the effect of the monomer ratio on properties of the polymer-modified mortars using methylmethacrylate-butyl acrylate(MMA/BA) latexes, and to obtain basic data necessary to develop appropriate latexes for cement modifiers. From the test results, we knew that the pore volume of polymer-modified mortars using MMA/BA latexes at bound MMA contents of 60 and 70 percent is 7.5∼75nm and the fine pore volume is increased with an increase in the polymer-cement ratio. The total pore volume of polymer-modified mortars using MMA/BA latexes is linearly reduced with an increase in the bound MMA content and increased in the polymer-cement ratio. In general, the superior compressive strength of polymer-modified mortars using MMA/BA latexes is obtained at a bound MMA content of 70 percent and a polymer-cement ratio of 15%. And, the water absorption and chloride ion penetration depth are greatly affected by the polymer-cement ratio rather than the bound MMA content. The important factors affecting the properties of polymer-modified mortars using MMA/BA latexes polymerized with various monomer ratios are the variations of the pore size distribution with changing bound MMA content and the polymer-cement ratio.

Spalling must be considered when designing high-strength concrete to cope with fire. This study investigates the temperature rise of steel bar in high-strength concrete coated with fireproof mortar using gypsum exposed to fire. It was found that fireproof mortar using gypsum is more effective in constraining the temperature rise of steel bar in the high strength concrete than fireproof mortar using cement, and that the thinner the cover depth of the fireproof mortar, the more significant the influence of the gypsum. In addition, while there was no difference between ${\alpha}$-hemihydrate mortar and ${\beta}$-hemihydrate mortar on the temperature rise of steel bar, the compressive strength of ${\alpha}$-hemihydrate mortar is higher than that of ${\beta}$-hemihydrate mortar.
