A ferrosilicon (FS) by-product was applied into a cementitious binder in concrete substituting the ordinary Portland cement (OPC). The original material characteristic of FS is very identical to silica fume (SF) regarding chemical composition and physical properties such as specific surface area and specific gravity. Therefore, the FS and SF concrete or mortal of which 10% of the material was replaced to total binder weight were fabricated to evaluate the feasibility of using F S as a binder, and the comparative information of OPC, FS and SF concrete was given. The hydration characteristic of FS concrete was analyzed using X-ray diffraction analysis. The FS concrete was beneficial in compressive strength, resistivity against chloride ingress and reducing porosity considering performance of OPC concrete but the advantage was less than using SF. A possibility of alkali-silica expansion was found out from the FS concrete due to the agglomerated size of the silica particles.

The chemical method and mortar-bar method for identification of the susceptibility to Alkali-Aggregate Reaction (AAR) was established as KS method by referencing the ASTM methods. However, the chemical method requires skilled chemical engineers and aggregates are tested in very severe condition, and on the other hand, the mortar-bar method needs a long time of 3 or 6 months. Judging from this circumstance that the use of crushed stones are increased due to the shortage of natural aggregates, the development and standardization of a new rapid test method is considered essential. The purpose of this paper is to research for the possibility to apply the rapid method, instead of the chemical method and the mortar-bar method with using the several domestic crushed stones.

The effect of content of reactive aggregate on alkali-silica reaction was investigated through the ASTM C 1260 method. The replacement proportions of fine aggregate by reactive aggregate were 25, 50, 75 and $100\%$, respectively. Reactive aggregate and fine aggregate(non-reactive aggregate) used are a metamorphic rock and andesite rock, respectively. The results indicate that the mortar-bar containing $25\%$ replacement of fine aggregate by reactive aggregate shows the lowest expansion but expansion in excess of $0.1\%$ at 16 days, which can distinguished between deleterious and potentially reactive. Although content of reactive aggregate is a small amount, it can cause detrimental expansion due to alkali-silica reaction.

The formation of mesoporous pores in the microporous mordenite crystals was performed by controlled silica extraction on alkaline treatment. Inner tunable mesopore size could be controlled by changing the concentration of alkaline solution. The pore structure of mordenite zeolite was studied by instrumental analysis after alkaline-treatment. To obtain the cage type mesopores, Ti-coating on the ourside mordenite crystals before alkaline treatment was investigated to be the most effective. Polymeric chiral salen Co (III) complexes were successfully encapsulated in mesoporous mordenite zeolite by "ship-in-a-bottle" method. The heterogeneous catalyst could be applied in asymmetric ring opening of epichlorohydrine by water. It showed very excellent enantioselectivity with a high yield in the catalysis.

The case of failure of Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) on the cement concrete pavement was reported in Korea. In the United States America, the fly ash has less than 10 percent Cao reported that prevent expansion by ASR. Most of all fly ash in Korea have less than 10 percent CaO, therefore it is similar ASTM F fly ash in the USA. Crushed aggregates of the test section had expansion behavior by potential ASR that the ASTM C 1260 test method tested expansion 0.17 percent during 14 days. The test section of concrete pavement used crushed aggregate was constructed that fly ash have 20 percent weight of cementitious materials to prevent expansion by ASR. This study was performed flexural strength test for elapsed days and durability by freeze-thaw test. It was shown that flexural strength was increased elapsed days and good performed freeze-thaw test. This study shown that fly ash concrete pavement was good performance in the test section.

When the waste solid fuel (SRF, Bio-SRF) is burnt in a boiler, a problem occurs in the combustion process involving the alkali components (Na, K) contained in large amounts in the fuel. The alkaline component has a low melting point, which usually forms low melting point salt in the temperature of the furnace, with the resulting low melting point salts attaching to the heat pipe to form a clinker. Various additives are used to suppress clinker generation, and the additive based on the kaolinite has alkali-aluminum-silica to inhibit the clinker. In this study, the reactivity of the additives based on the kaolinite was compared. The additives utilized were R-kaolinite, B-kaolinite, and A-kaolinite. Also silica and MgO were sourced as the comparison group. The experimental group was employed as a laboratory-scale batch horizontal reactor. The additive and alkaline salts were reacted at a weight ratio of 1 : 1, and the reaction temperature was performed at 900 ℃ for 10 hours. The first measurement of HCl occurring during the experiment was performed 30 minutes after the detection tube was used, and the process was repeated every hour after the experiment. After the reaction, solid residues were photographed for characterization analysis by means of an optical microscope. The reaction characteristics of the kaolinite were confirmed based on the analysis results.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the residual mortar of recycled concrete aggregate on the expansion behavior during alkali silica reaction (ASR). METHODS: In order to evaluate the net effect of residual mortar on ASR expansion behavior, two aggregate samples with the same original virgin aggregate source but different residual mortar volumes were used. ASTM C1260 test was used to evaluate the ASR expansion behavior of these two aggregates and the original virgin aggregate. RESULTS: The greater the amount of residual mortar in recycled concrete aggregates, the less is the induced ASR expansion. Depending on the amount of residual mortar in recycled concrete aggregate, the ASR expansion of recycled concrete aggregate may be less than half of that of the original virgin aggregate. CONCLUSIONS: The residual mortar of recycled concrete aggregate may lead to the under estimation of the ASR expansion behavior of the original virgin aggregate.

The effect of ground granulated blast furnace slag to prevent detrimental expansion due to alkali-silica reaction was investigated through the ASTM C 1260 method. This method is one of the most commonly used method because results can be obtained within 16 days. Reactive aggregate used is a metamorphic rock. The replacement ratios of portland cement by ground granulated blast furnace slag were 0, 15, 25, 35 and 55 percent, respectively. The results indicate that 35 percent replacement of portland cement by ground granulated blast furnace slag seems to be effective to reduce alkali-silica reaction expansion under this experimental conditions.

The effect of fly ash to prevent detrimental expansion due to alkali -silica reaction was investigated through the ASTM C 1260 method that is one of the most commonly used method because results can be obtained within about 16 days. Reactive aggregate used is a netamorphic rock and sedimentary rock. The replacement proportions of portland cement by fly ash were respectively 0, 5, 10, 15, 25 and 35 percent. Expansion of mortar bars due to alkali-silica reaction decreased with the increase of fly ash content. The results show that the expansion due to alkali-silica reaction is dramatically reduced in the presence of high volume fly ash. When the fly ash content examine from all angles (strength and a flow), the replacement proportions of fly ash is about $25\%$ in order to control on expansion.

This study was performed to proof expansion effect of the mortar bar due to Alkali-silica Reaction (ASR) by ASTM C 1260 test. Recently, the failure case of cement concrete pavement by ASR was reported in Korea. Cement concrete structures are caused crack by ASR. The service life of cracked cement concrete structures by ASR will be shorted. In this study, crushed the slate rock producted Chungcheongnamdo Boryeong was caused 0.3% expansion at 14 days due to ASR by ASTM C 1260 test. The particular spectrum showed that the ASR gel was analyzed contents included Si, Na, K, and Ca by EDX (electron dispersive X-ray spectrometer). It was verified that the crushed aggregate was caused expansion by ASR in Korea.
