This study is to performed to find the optimum mix proportion of the high strength and self compacting concrete for the above-ground LNG storage tank construction and field application. If LNG storage tank wall thicknesscan be reduced, the construction cost and quality can be improved by using self-compacting high strength concrete with compressive strength 60~80 MPa. For this purpose, low heat cement (Type IV) and class F fly ash are used in concrete mix to control hydration heat, flowability, and viscosity. Mix design variables of unit water, fly ash replacement ratio, water-binder ratio, and fine aggregate ratio are selected and tested for material properties and manufacturing cost of the concrete. Also, fly ash replacement ratio is considered using confined water ratio test. The test results showed that the optimum mix proportion of the self-compacting high strength concrete characteristics are as follows. 1) In case of the concrete with specified compressive strength of 60 MPa, the optimum mix proportion is fly ash replacement ratio of 20% and water- binder ratio of 27~30%. 2) In case of the concrete with the strength of 80 MPa, the optimum mix proportion is fly ash replacement ratio of 10% and water-binder ratio 25%. But unit water and fine aggregate ratio are 165 $kg/m^3$ and $51{\pm}2%$, respectively, regardless of the traget concrete compressive strength range. Also, test results showed that concrete manufacturing cost of 60 MPa and 80 MPa concrete require additional costs of 14~22% and 33%, respectively, compared to the manufacturing cost of 40 MPa concrete. Therefore, application of the self-compacting high strength concrete has proven to be economical in the perspective of the material cost, quality control, and site management.

The verification of serviceability of concrete structures requires more informations on the composite behaviors between concrete and reinforcement. Among them, the investigation of crack widths and spacings is based on the tension stiffening effects. In this paper, the tension stiffening effects of high strength concrete members with compressive strength of 80 and 100MPa are investigated experimentally. It was found that the current design code which is based on the tests of normal strength concrete may not describe the tension stiffening effects in high strength concrete correctly. The coefficient that can appropriately reflect the tension stiffening effects in the high strength concrete was proposed. Also, the crack spacing was investigated through the cracking behaviors and the crack width according to the difference of the strains in steel and concrete was estimated. The results of this paper may be used to examine the tension stiffening effects of high strength concrete members.

The demand for high strength and ultra-lightweight materials to incorporate the advanced technology of nanomaterials into the lengthening of structures is continuously increasing. Therefore, based on existing research results and numerous mixing trials, we derived a mix of high strength and ultra-light concrete of a compressive strength of 100 MPa with a unit weight of 18 kN/m³ and a compr essive str ength of 80 MPa with a unit weight of 16 kN/m³ and evaluated their per for mance. In this paper, 108 specimens corresponding to high strength and ultra-lightweight concrete with a compressive strength of 100 MPa under a unit weight of 18 kN/m³, and a compressive strength of 80 MPa under a unit weight of 16 kN/m³ were manufactured, and the bond characteristics were identified by performing a directly tensile tests, and the bond characteristics were evaluated by comparing them with the experimental results and the current design criteria. It was judged that the bond strength calculation formula of ACI-408R and the experimental results were not accurately reflected, so an bond stress equation based on ACI-408R was proposed. The result of the proposed equation was that the deviation was somewhat reduced. In addition, the results of calculating the CEB-FIP model and the modified CMR model using statistical analysis showed slight differences from the experimental results, but considering that the bond behavior is a local behavior, the proposed model appears to explain the bond behavior of high strength and ultra-light concrete as a whole.

An experimental program was carried out to investigate the mechanical properties of high-strength concrete. High-strength concrete with compressive strengths of 80 to 120 MPa was tested. Test results are presented regarding effect of water-binder ratio on compressive strength and compressive strength gain. In addition, the effect of curing methods on compressive strength, elastic modulus, splitting tensile strength, and modulus of rupture is investigated. Test results of elastic modulus, splitting tensile strength, and modulus of rupture are compared with predictions from the current design recommendations. Predictions of elastic modulus by using KCI recommendation has good agreement with test results. However, predictions of modulus of rupture by using KCI recommendation underestimate the test results. ACI 363R recommendations predict well test results of splitting tensile strength and modulus of rupture. ACI 363R recommendations for predicting splitting tensile strength and modulus of rupture can be used for high-strength concrete with compressive strengths up to 120 MPa.

본 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 기둥의 거동을 예측하기 위하여 층상화 방법을 이용한 유한요소 해석방법이 제안되었다. 콘크리트의 강도와 철근비가 기둥의 극한강도와 거동에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 세장비가 10, 60, 100인 정방형 단면(80$\times$80mm)을 갖는 30개의 기둥에 대하여 실험을 수행하였다. 이때, 콘크리트의 강도는 25.5, 63.5, 86.2MPa로, 철근비는 1.98, 3.95%로 변화시켰다. 또한, 단부조건은 양단힌지로 하고, 편심량은 기둥은 양단에서 같은 방향으로 24mm로 동일하게 하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 해석방법은 철근콘크리트 기둥의 거동을 잘 예측하며, ACI의 모멘트 확대계수법은 고강도 콘크리트 장주에 대해서는 안전측이 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 콘크리트의 강도가 기둥의 극한강도에 미치는 영향은 기둥의 세장비가 증가할수록 감소하였으며, 콘크리트의 강도가 커질수록 세장기둥의 좌굴파괴 가능성은 증가하였다. 또한, 철근비를 증가시킬 경우, 기둥의 축력이 최대가 될 때의 모멘트가 증가되었으며, 기둥의 극한강도 증가량은 단주보다는 장주에서 더 크게 나타났다. 철근비 증가에 의해 나타나는 이러한 기둥의 극한강도 증가량과 모멘트 증가량은 콘크리트의 강도가 커질수록 증대되었다.
