Concrete has a void, which exists as one of defect in concrete. If the porosity of concrete increases, durability of concrete decreases. In this paper, to improve surface void of concrete, surface penetration sealers are applied to specimen. And it were investigated that the resistances of chloride penetration and freezing and thawing for concrete with surface penetration sealer of two types. According to the results, surface penetration sealer has not show a harmful influence on strength and resistance of freezing and thawing. Also, B type surface penetration sealer was more superior in resistance of chloride penetration.

This study investigates the effect of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber and silica fume addition on the chloride penetration resistance of alkali-activated slag. Silica fume was added to replace slag at the dosage of 0, 5, 10, and 20% by weight of the binder, while PVA fiber was added at the dosage of 0, 1, and 2% by volume of the mixture. Samples were synthesized via alkali activator with 1.0 of silicate modulus and cured at room temperature for 28 days. Compressive strength test, permeable voids volume test, water absorprtion test, and rapid chloride penetration test were conducted for measuring the charaterisitics of alkali-activaed slag. The results showed that increasing silica fume content up to 10% in alkali-activated slag improved compressive strength and chloride penetration resistance. Addition of PVA fibers up to 1% by volume enhanced strength and chloride penetration resistance, but exceeding this led to reduced strength and durability due to increased void formation in the matrix.

With the passing of time, exposed concrete structures are affected by a range of environmental, chemical, and physical factors. These factors seep into the concrete and have a deleterious influence compared to the initial performance. The importance of identifying and preventing further performance degradation due to the occurrence of deterioration has been greatly emphasized. In recent years, evaluations of the target life have attracted increasing interest. During the freezing-melting effect, a part of the concrete undergoes swelling and shrinking repeatedly. At these times, chloride ions present in seawater penetrate into the concrete, and accelerate the deterioration due to the corrosion of reinforced bars in the concrete structures. For that reason, concrete structures located onshore with a freezing-melting effect are more prone to this type of deterioration than inland structures. The aim of this study was to develop a high performance mortar mixed with a mineral admixture for the durability properties of concrete structures near sea water. In addition, experimental studies were carried out on the strength and durability of mortar. The mixing ratio of the silica fume and meta kaolin was 3, 7 and 10 %, respectively. Furthermore, the ultra-fine fly ash was mixed at 5, 10, 15, and 20%. The mortar specimens prepared by mixing the admixtures were subjected to a static strength test on the 1st and 28th days of age and degradation acceleration tests, such as the chloride ion penetration resistance test, sulfuric acid resistance test, and salt resistant test, were carried out at 28 days of age. The chloride diffusion coefficient was calculated from a series of rapid chloride penetration tests, and used to estimate the life time against corrosion due to chloride ion penetration according to the KCI, ACI, and FIB codes. The life time of mortar with 10% meta kaolin was the longest with a service life of approximately 470 years according to the KCI code.

Construction of road closed to mountains is inevitable in Korea because the mountainous region in Korea is more than 70% in area. Recently, due to global warming, typhoons or heavy rainfalls frequently occur, and accordingly, mountain roads are seriously damaged by landslides, debris flows, and uplift pressure below pavement. in this study, damage on pavement by uplift pressure was investigated. Various influencing factors such as slope angle, reinforcement of slope surface, thickness of soil cover underlain by rock, and types of drainage system were considered to evaluate uplift pressure acting on the bottom of pavement. Raising of water table up to the surface of slope may depend on the duration and intensity of rainfall. It shows that the installation of subdrain can reduce the uplift water pressure. Therefore, It is concluded that the use of subdrain system is effective to decrease uplift pressure and cement treated base is more endurable than typical crushed-stone base.

하천의 물리적 생태적 특성에 대한 연구는 하천유형분류의 기초 자료로서 큰 의미가 있다. 그러나 국내의 경우 이를 위한 하천의 조사는 매우 드물며, 국부적이었다. 더욱이 이러한 생태적 물리적 특성을 근거로 한 하천 유형적 특성을 연구한 사례는 없었다. 본 연구에서는 하천의 유형을 분류하는 것은 아니지만 하천을 더욱 효율적으로 계획하고 관리하는데 필요한 기초자료를 구축하고자 하였다. 그리하여 1차적 연구로 자연환경이 유사한 하천들을 일시에 선정하여 동일한 방법으로 각 하천의 물리적 생태적 특성을 조사하고 평가하여 대상 하천의 공통적 특성을 가려내고자 하였다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구에서는 하천의 물리적 구조조사법을 유럽공동체에서 사용하는 기준과 방법에 따라 시범적으로 실시하여 국내하천의 하천환경조사를 위한 적용성 여부도 진단하고자 하였다. 하천의 물리적 구조등급이란 하천의 공간적 환경과 저수로 하상재료의 물리적 차이를 의미하는 것으로 하천 자체는 물론 하천범람지에 영향을 주는 생태적 기능의 수리 특성, 하천의 물리 특성, 수생태 특성 등을 포괄하게 된다. 따라서 하천의 물리적 구조등급은 하천구조의 생태적 질과 하천구조로 나타나게 되는 동적 과정(dynamic process)의 질을 평가하는 척도가 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 남한강수계의 청미천, 양화천, 복하천을 대상으로 물리적 구조조사법과 식생조사를 병행하였으며 이로부터 하천의 물리적 구조등급이 수질등급과 정량적이지는 않지만 전반적인 하천의 생태성 또는 자연도를 가늠할 수 있는 하나의 지료로 활용할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.양토를 기준으로 할 때 강우량과 침투수의 관계는 $I_{10}(mm)=0.44R(mm)+5.8(r^2=0.55)$이었다. y절이 발생한 이유는 이전 강우에 의해 침투되고 있는 물이 있음을 함축하며 기울기 0.40은 강우의 $40\%$가 지하로 침투하였음을 의미한다. 침투수량은 토성별로 양토를 1.0으로 기준할 때 사양토가 1.12로 가장 컸고, 식양토 0.94, 식토 0.91로 평가되었다. 이는 토성간의 침투속도 및 투수속도의 경향이 반영된 것이다. 경사에 따라서는 경사도가 증가할수록 지수적으로 감소하였으며 $10\% 경사일 때를 기준으로 $I(mm)=I_{10}{\times}1.17{\times}e^{-0.0164s(\%)}$로 나타났다. 같은 조건에서 강우량과 유거수의 관계는 $Ro_{10}(mm)=5.32e^{0.11R(mm)}(r^2=0.69)$로 나타났다. 이는 토양의 투수특성에 따라 강우량 증가에 비례하여 점증하는 침투수와 구분되는 현상이었다. 경사와 토양이 같은 조건에서 나지의 경우 역시 $Ro_{B10}(mm)=20.3e^{0.08R(mm)(r^2=0.84)$로 지수적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 유거수량은 토성별로 양토를 1.0으로 기준할 때 사양토가 0.86으로 가장 작았고, 식양토 1.09, 식토 1.15로 평가되어 침투수에 비해 토성별 차이가 크게 나타났다. 이는 토성이 세립질일 수록 유거수의 저항이 작기 때문으로 생각된다. 경사에 따라서는 경사

We have studied about chloride penetration test by electrical conductance to 10 specimens made from same test batch. The coefficient of variation of total passed charge(Colombs) was about 24% in same specimens, and we draw a conclusion this method has a low reliability. Owing to complicated reaction ; heterogeneous material, mixing error and error of testing method, then we must consider the scope of the error which is introduced. Specially when you trying to get one test result against one spcimen, you can commit a big error, therefore we recommend that you use mean value against 3 specimens at least.

This study has been performed to test the flowability and filling ability of high flowing concrete as well as distribution of aggregate and pore of core specimen, heat of hydration, compressive strength and core strength of concrete. In addition, the resistance to chloride ion penetration and chemical solutionof concrete was tested in order to evaluate the resistance to sea water of concrete and its application of high flowing concrete using blended low heat cement in the field of Seohae Grand Bridge. The properties of high flowing concrete with blended low heat cement were compared with ordinary 25-240-15 concrete using Type V cement. As the results of this study, the flowability and filling ability of high flowing concrete with blended low heat cement is satisfied without vibration. Though the cement content of high flowing concrete with blended low heat cement was 400kg/m$^2$, the rising temperature of it was relatively lower than that of the ordinary 25-240-15 concrete with Type V cement. Also, the compressive of high flowing concrete with blended low heat cement is similar to that of the ordinary 25-240-15 concrete with Type V cement.

This study focuses on evaluating the applicability of an acryl based polymer concrete to the thin bridge deck pavements. The acryl concrete developed in this study is composed of Methyl Methacrylate(MMA) resin, benzol peroxide and fillers. To study the effects of the types and amounts of the components on the physical characteristics of the acryl concrete, viscosity, compressive strength and bending tests were conducted. The optimum mixture design was then determined based on the testing results. Several different types of laboratory tests, such as water and chlorine ion penetration tests, shrinkage and thermal coefficients tests, and tensile bonding strength tests were performed for the optimum acryl concrete and conventional cement concrete. The testing results show that water and chroline ion resistance, bonding strength between acryl and cement concrete and crack resistance of the acryl concrete is better than those of the conventional cement concrete. There are shortcomings that the conventional acryl concrete has a higher shrinkage and thermal coefficients. However, it was confirmed that to use newly developed rubberized MMA resin in this study reduces the crack resistance with substantially increased ductility.
