The oxidation slag has been widely used in civil engineering project, whereas the reduced slag from electric furnace has yet to be applied. Consequently in order to find out the recycling method in civil engineering field, the mineral compositions of the reduced slag were analyzed and some tests on water quality were performed to estimate the potential release of toxic compounds. Slag-soil mixtures of 0, 10, 20 and 30%(dry weight) soil were prepared in lysimeter columns and the effluents were collected with the period of one, two and four week options in closed system, respectively. The result from qualitative and quantitative analysis using X-ray Diffraction(XRD) and X-ray Fluorescence(XRF) indicates that the main mineral of the reduced slag is $Ca_2(SiO_4)$, a kind of calcium silicate. Also, the leaching medium analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy(ICP-OES) showed that main heavy metals such as Al, Fe and Mn are included in the reduced slag due to the effect of steel production process. It can be seen that the leachate does not violate the regulation guide line of waste material of heavy metal. Also the pH levels were increased from pH 6.9 for 0% soil to pH 10 for 30% soil. However the influence on leachate circulation period of one through four weeks was negligible.

Electric arc furnace slag is made in ironworks during steel refining, it is been increasing chemical and physical resistibility using ageing method of unstable state of melting steel slag for using concrete's fine aggregates. Which is been changing stable molecular structure of aggregates, it restrains moving of ion and molecule. In Korea, KS F 4571 has been prepared for using the electric arc furnace slag to concrete aggregates. In this study, Electric arc furnace slag is used in the PMC(Polymer Modified Concrete) which is applied a bridge pavement of rehabilitation, largely. In that case, this study evaluates the structural safety about increasing the specific weight. The 4-type bridges(RC slab bridge, RC rigid-frame bridge, PSC Beam bridge, Steel box girder bridge) pavement's increasing the total dead load is in 1 ~ 2%. Design moments in a load combination are increased less then 2%. safety factor is decreased less than 3%. Therefore, the structural safety has no problem for applying the electric arc furnace slag within PMC in bridge.

In this study, simple beam tests proposed by Ichinose were performed to estimate the bond performance of reinforced concrete beams using electric arc furnace slag aggregates. As results of the test, the specimens with the electric arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregates showed higher bond capacity as compared to the one with natural aggregates.

This study is about evaluation of shrinkage of concrete used oxidized EFS(electric-furnaceslag) aggregate. As a result, the shrinkage of concrete used oxidized EFS aggregate is decreased to about 40% in proportion to replacement of oxidized EFS aggregate in total aggregate volume.

In ultra high strength concrete, when electric arc furnace oxidizing slag is substituted for sea sand as fine aggregate, compressive strength was improved about 15 MPa. To figure out the cause of the improvement in compressive strength, this study considered the dissolution characteristics of Ca component in fine aggregate and examined the microstructure, porosity, microhardness, and Ca/Si mole ratio on the interface of fine aggregate and paste. And to examine the mechanism of strength improvement resulted from the shape of fine aggregate, this study measured the surface roughness of fine aggregate with AFM. According to the result of this experiment, the mechanisms of strength improvement in ultra high strength concrete resulted from the use of electric arc furnace oxidizing slag as fine aggregate can be divided into chemical and physical mechanisms. In the chemical mechanism, the soluble Ca component contained in electric arc furnace oxidizing slag is dissolved and forms a hydrate between fine aggregate and paste to improve the interlocking strength of fine aggregate-paste. Also, it makes the microstructure around the fine aggregate. And in the physical mechanism, electric arc furnace oxidizing slag has a twice greater surface roughness than sea sand, so the interlocking strength between fine aggregate and paste increases, which contributes to the development of compressive strength.

In this study, EMP shielding performance was evaluated using electric furnace oxidized slag to give EMP shielding performance to concrete among the most used materials in construction sites. As a result of the evaluation, the component of the electric furnace oxidation slag was found to have an Fe₂O₃ content of 34%, and it was also found to contain an MgO component of about 4.8%. In addition, as a result of conducting an aggregate stability evaluation due to concerns about expansion due to MgO components, it is considered to be suitable for the KS standard. EMP shielding performance evaluation result showed that there was no correlation in EMP shielding performance according to compressive strength, and that general aggregates did not have EMP shielding. However, it was found that the aggregate using the furnace oxidized slag had excellent EMP shielding performance, and the shielding performance improved as the thickness increased. As a result of the durability evaluation, it was found that the EMP shielding concrete has the durability of abortion compared to the general concrete. Through this, it is thought that it will be good to improve the shielding rate if concrete is manufactured using electric furnace oxide slag when constructing EMP shielding structures in the future.
