A Cement account for the most amount than other materials in the material composition of ultra-high-performance concrete. If we especially consider the effect of high temperature curing on the cement hydration and the problems of autogenous shrinkage, heat of hydration we need selection of proper cement type by grasping influence of cement in the properties of UHPC. Therefore, in this paper we examined properties of fluidity, compressive strength and elastic modulus of UHPC due to domestic portland cement types. In results, we could get a result that the low heat cement increase fluidity, compressive strength in UHPC compare with high early strength cement and ordinary portland cement. we are systematically going to examination on the influence of UHPC by domestic portland cement types.

This study was performed to enhance mechanical properties of high-early-strength concrete using regulated-set cement for early traffic opening with various mixtures. Restraint of moisture and thermal movements of concrete pavement in actual field conditions, by external or internal restraining factors, generates tensile stresses which introduce microcracks and thus reduce the mechanical properties of concrete. Fiber reinforcement of concrete is an effective approch to the control of microcrack and crack development under tensile stresses. Three different types of regulated-set cement which recently have been used in Korea and two different types of fiber were adopted. Fibers were added and their mixtures are compared with plain high-early-strength concrete mixture. From the test results, fiber reinforced concrete was increased mechanical properties of high-early-strength concrete using regulated-set cement than the plain concrete.

Up to this day, reinforced spun concrete pipes have been widely used as drain pipes. However, many reinforced spun concrete pipes are exposed to the deteriorated environment such as freezing-thawing damage and chemical attack by the growth of a sulfur-oxidizing bacterium isolated from corroded concrete. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of lining by polymer-modified mortar using polymer dispersions as cement modifier on the development in durability of reinforced spun concrete pipe. The polymer-modified mortars were prepared with various polymer types and polymer-cement ratios, and tested for compressive and flexural strengths, acid, freezing-thawing, and heat resistances. And then, the reinforced spun concrete pipe product lined by polymer-modified mortars was tested for adhesion in tension and surface conditions according to curing temperatures in the field. From the test results, it is apparent that the polymer-modified mortars have good mechanical properties and durability as a lining material. In practice, all polymers can be used as lining the materials for reinforced spun concrete pipe, and types of polymer, and polymer-cement ratio and curing conditions are controlled for a good lining product.

Strength is one of the very important factors to evaluate the physical properties of concrete. Aggregate forms the most parts in concrete. Cement as a binder in concrete is also closely related to strength. This experiment was tested to understand the effect of the characteristics of aggregate and cement on the relationship between concrete compressive strength and Shear Wave velocity. It was experimented by the different types of cement and maximum coarse aggregate sizes. Type I cement and rapid setting cement was used. Aggregates from three different regions were used. Aggregate of 19mm and 13mm maximum coarse aggregate sizes was used for grading. The relationship between compressive strength and Shear Wave velocity was tested under the condition of same mixture. LA wear test was used to quantify the characteristics of aggregate. As a result, the relationship between concrete compressive strength and Shear Wave velocity was affected by the types of cement, but regular relationship was appeared regardless of types of aggregate, grading and abrasion ratio.

Reinforced concrete starts to corrode when the chloride ion concentration which is the sum of included in concrete and penetrated from environments exceeds a certain level of critical chloride concentration. Therefore each country regulates the upper bounds of chloride amount in concrete and the regulations are different for each country due to its circumstances. In this study, the critical threshold chloride content according to unit cement amount is empirically calculated to propose a reasonable regulation method on the chloride amount. As a result, the critical threshold chloride content increases considerably according to cement content and it agrees with the established theories. The present regulations on total chloride amount 0.3 or 0.6 kg chloride ions per $1\;m^3$ of concrete does not reflect the influences of mix design, environmental conditions and etc. So it can be said that it is more reasonable to regulate the critical threshold chloride content by the ratio of chloride amount per unit cement content than by the total chloride content in $1\;m^3$ of concrete.

This study carried out to evaluate the quality deviation according to Premixed and Non-Premixed cement for normal and high strength concrete using blast furnace slag and fly ash. The results of experiment are founded that concrete using premixed cement have more performance than non-premixed cement at a point of view for the quality deviations both strength and Chloride ion diffusion. Therefore, it is desirable that premixed cement should be used to decrease strength deviation in high strength concrete and durability deviation in normal strength concrete.

This study gives results of 1aboratory investigations to minimize the slump loss of concrete using high range water reducing admixture (HRWR). Various factors influencing on the slump loss such as cement type, HRWR type and dosage time are investigated. The acquired results indicated that 30 minutes delayed dosage of HRWR is very effective on reducing the slump loss though this tendency makes a difference to some extent according to cement and HRWR type. For the most part, the more usage of HRWR increases, the higher the slump loss occurs and concrete using ordinary portland cement has the highest slump loss and concrete using fly ash 20% replacement cement with HRWR of naphthalene type has the good effect on reducing the slump loss.

This study was performed to obtain the basic data which can be applied to improve the early strength of concrete. The results obtained were as follows; 1. In case that water reducing-set accelerating agent was added 0.75% of the weight of cement, the weight of water was reducd 10%. And $CaCl_2$ did nearly not have an effect on the w/c ratio. 2. Compressive strength and tensile strength increased 25%, 43%, respectively, in case that $CaCl_2$ was 2.0% of the weight of cement, and showed 120%, 140%, respectively, in case that water reducing-set accelerating agent was 0.75% of the weight of cement. 3. In case of steam curing at $60^{\circ}C$, the strength increased with the ages. At $100^{\circ}C$, the increase of strength in 1 age was two times as compared with plain concrete. After 7ages, the strength was similer to plain concrete. 4. The relationship between compressive strength and tensile strength was linear and was highly significant in cases of plain concrete, $CaCl_2$ concrete, C-W concrete, steam cured concrete, respectively.

This study aims to attain the basic data needed for the adaptation and application of polymer cement concrete as a new construction material by reviewing the various physical characteristics of polymer cement concrete following the changes in polymer type. The research found that cement concrete mixed with polymer, while it had some variation, had excellent qualities in all of compressive strength, tensile strength, water absorption, weight reducing ratio, and resistance of freezing and thawing.
