This research investigates the effects of shrinkage reducing agent (SRA) on the mechanical behavior of strain-hardening cement composite (SHCC). SHCC material with specified compressive strength of 50 MPa was mixed and tested in this study. All SHCC mixes reinforced with volume fraction of 2.2% polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber and test variables are type and dosage of shrinkage reducing agents. The shrinkage reducing materials used in this study are phase change material as the thermal stress reducing materials that have the ability to absorb or release the heat. The effect of SRA was examined based on the change in length caused by shrinkage and hardened mechanical properties, specially compressive, tensile and flexural behaviors, of SHCC material. It was noted that SRA reduces change in length caused by shrinkage at early age. SRA can also improve the tensile and flexural strengths and toughness of SHCC material used in this study.

The autogenous shrinkage of high-performance concrete is important in that it can lead the early cracks in concrete structures. The purpose of the present study is to explore the autogenous shrinkage of high-performance concrete with admixture and to derive a realistic equation to estimate the autogenous shrinkage model of that. For this purpose, comprehensive experimental program has been set up to observe the autogenous shrinkage for various test series. Major test variables were the type and contents of admixture and water-cement ratio is fixed with 30%. The autogenous shrinkage of HPC with fly ash slightly decreased than that of OPC concrete, but the use of blast furnace slag increased the autogenous shrinkage. Also, the autogenous shrinkage of HPC is found to decrease with increasing shrinkage reduction agent and expansive additive. A prediction equation to estimate the autogenous shrinkage of HPC with admixture was derived and proposed in this study. The proposed equation show reasonably good correlation with test data on autogenous shrinkage of HPC with mineral and chemical admixture.

산업부산물을 이용하여 3CaO.3Al$_2$O$_3$.CaSO$_4$(C$_4$A$_3$S) 클링커를 합성하였다. 이때, 원료 물질은 산업부산물로 플라이 애쉬, 고로 수쇄 및 괴재슬래그를 $Al_2$O$_3$원으로 그리고 부산석고를 SO$_3$원으로 이용하였으며, CaO원으로 천연석회석을 사용하였다. 제조된 $C_4$A$_3$S 클링커를 CaSO$_4$, CaO를 배합하여 CSA계 팽창재를 제조하였으며, 일반 포틀랜드 시멘트(OPC)에 10 wt.% 첨가하여 수화 및 물성 특성을 조사하였다. 주요 수화생성상은 에트링자이트 및 수산화칼슘이었다. 수화시 에트링자이트의 생성으로 인해 팽창 및 경화체가 치밀화되어 건조수축이 감소되었고, 강도(압출, 인장, 휨)가 향상되었다.

This paper describes a new approach to minimize the amount of shrinkage cracking in cement treated base(CTB). CTB is a stiffness base having lots of merits such as higher rutting resistance, minimizing fatigue cracking, and the ability to distribute upper loads. However, It is not applied to asphalt pavement system in Korea because of possible cracks caused by dry shrinkage. The goal of this study is the development of cement treated base with lower shrinkage for preventing reflection cracks and rutting. After identifying factors affecting dry shrinkage and analyzing mechanism of each admixture, the laboratory and field tests were designed and performed. Through the preliminary tests, the mix design containing 25 percent o( fly ash and 7 percent of cement was suggested. This mix design was satisfied with strength for Korea specification standard. According to the results considering strength, shrinkage, and economical efficiency, two mix designs were selected; 1) containing 25 percent of fly ash and 2) containing 25 percent of fly ash with 10 percent of expensive additive. For field test based on the result of laboratory test, the optimized alternative in cement treated base with lower shrinkage was the mix design containing 25 percent of fly ash with 10 percent of expansive additive.

고온용 전기.열 절연재의 유리모재로 사용하기 위한 산화크롬함유 인산염 유리 복합체의 소결거동, 물성, 그리고 미세구조변화를 연구하였다. 단미의 유리는 점성유동에 의한 1단계 소결수축을 보이나 복합체는 점성유동 및 반응 액상소결에 의한 2단계 수축을 보였다. 단미 유리는 소결온도 증가에 따라 재기공율이 감소하고 기공크기가 작아지지만 93$0^{\circ}C$ 이사에서는 폐기공이 생성되면서 기공이 성장함을 보였다. 복합체 소결밀도는 산화크롬 증가에 따라 감소하였으며, 특히 산화크롬 40% 이상에서는 percolation에 의해 소결수축율이 급격히 저하하였다. 복합체의 곡강도는 산화크롬 증가에 따라 거의 직선적으로 감소한 반면 열팽창율은 오히려 급속히 증가함을 보였다.

The jointing of unsupported concrete on the parking lot floor is a process for cracking and stress relief due to concrete drying shrinkage and restraint, but curling occurs due to long-term drying shrinkage after the initial age. will be lowered Therefore, by using an expansion material and a shrinkage reducing agent, the dry shrinkage of concrete is realized to 200 με or less.

Recently, high strength, flowability, and durability of concrete were required according to increase of large scale and high rise structure. However, cracks occurred easily on the high performance concrete. In this reason, using expansion agent for reducing shrinkage cracks were increased, but it did not consider on durability of high performance concrete. Accordingly, this study1 investigated the resistance of shrinkage and damage form salt by mixing CSA expansion agent on the blast-furnace slag cement and mixed cement for the low heat of hydration by three components. The cases that 8% of expansion agent was mixed and the proportion was OPC were expanded till 43.7 times compared with control concrete. For the resistance to the damage of salt, it was improved when mixing ratio was incresed and the maximum size of coarse aggregate growed bigger. In this study, the resistance to the damage of salt of the cases that 8% of expansion agent was mixed was improved about 16% compared with control concrete.

In this study, stress-deformation characteristics of buried pipe are studied. A numerical model, i.e., Egg-Cam Clay is introduced for the analysis of soft clay. Cam Clay model has a difficulty in analyzing soft clay that has two properties of shrinkage and swelling. Egg-Cam Clay model is modified format of Cam Clay model. In addition, Mohr-Coulomb model using finite element method is employed to verify effects of the geogrid, EPS geofoam. Stress deformation of several cases of pipe and other reinforcemnt material combinations are analyzed. Geofoam and geogrid have positive effects on the deformation characteristics.

The steam generator water level is difficult to control at low power due to its reversed responses to the feedwater flow, which are well known as the shrink and swell phenomena. With regard to this problem a new control scheme has been studied by which the level transients could be kept within permissible ranges at low power. The relations between the various input conditions to steam generator and the level transients have been examined to be expressed in the form of process transfer functions. Analog filters have been incorporated to be expressed in the process with proper control constants. This control scheme allows the prediction of level variation together with the corresponding feedwater rate and results in mider transients with good stabilites.
