Performance of ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) is mainly affected by ground heat exchangers which makes up more than 40% of construction cost. Exact construction and grout as backfill are important, because it is difficult to repair after being installed. As grout materials, bentonite grout material and cement material are used In this paper, thermal conductivity according to mix proportion of cement grout has been experimentally studied. Some variables were set to evaluate thermal conductivities according to change in cement content, unit water ratio, mass per volume of fresh mortar, and aggregate types. From the experimental analysis, high performance cement grout has been proposed.

Various of batches of recycled concretes were produced with different rations of recycled aggregate (20% and 50%) and admixtures based on workable range of slump value and using a fixed w/c ration. Mechanical characteristics of the recycled concretes were evaluated. Test results showed that, in general, relatively high strength recycled concrete could be obtained using a plasticiser. The concrete using fly ash showed somewhat reduced strength, lower elastic modulus and relatively high strain, in general. However, the strength reduction ratio of the recycled concrete due to adding fly ash was relatively minor, compared with normal concrete. Since it has been known that the fly ash is used in place of cement and gives an improved long term strength, a further study may be warranted for a possibility of using fly ash without degrading the strength required.

This experimental study is performed by using artificial lightweight aggregate manufactured in laboratory, and the test results of it are compared with those using foreign materials in respect of design compressive strength, unit weight. The tests on strength characteristics such as bending, splitting tensile strength and on mechanical characteristics including σ-εcurve, elastic modulus, poisson's ratio are performed to provide the fundamental data required for the design. From this study, it is possible to obtain the high-strength concrete having compressive strength of 500 kg/㎠ and unit weight of 1.85-2.0 t/㎥. And also it is recommended that sandlightweight concrete having high specfic strength is more practical for general use.

보통 포틀랜드 시멘트와 수용성 고분자 물질인 hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose(HPMC), 미세골재 및 혼화재료를 사용하여 W/C=0.1이 되도록 물을 첨가하고 twin roll mill로 혼합 성형한 후 60일간 양생하여 고강도 시멘트 경화체를 제조하였다. 이 경화체에 대한 휨강도 및 파괴인성을 검토하였다. SiC 분말 및 백색시멘트를 첨가한 경우 휨강도는 약 100MPa정도, 탄성계수는 80-95GPa의 값을 나타내었다. 실리카흄을 첨가한 경우 휨강도는 80MPa, 탄성계수는 60GPa의 값을 나타내었다.

The purpose of this research is to propose a design technique of concrete mix proportions satisfying service life through genetic algorithm (GA) and neural network (NN). For this, thirty mix proportions and the related diffusion coefficients in high performance concrete are analyzed and fitness function for diffusion coefficient is obtained considering mix components like w/b (water to binder ratio), cement content, mineral admixture (slag, flay ash and silica fume) content, sand and coarse aggregate content. Through averaging the results of 10 times GA simulations, relative errors to the previous data decrease lower than 5.0% and the simulated mix proportions are verified with the experimental results. Assuming the durability design parameters, intended diffusion coefficient for intended service life is derived and mix proportions satisfying the service life are obtained. Among the mix proportions, the most optimized case which satisfies required concrete strength and the lowest cost is selected through GA algorithm. The proposed technique would be improved with the enhancement of comprehensive data set including wider the range of diffusion coefficients.

The development of a new type of soil-cement concrete pavement using volcaniclastic is the main purpose of this study. Various mixture ratios, specimens' penetration resistance, time of setting, slump flow of fleshly mixed concrete, compressive strength and color characteristics of hardened concrete were studied. It was concluded that the optimum weight ratio of cement:volcaniclastic to produce good properties of soil-cement concrete is 1:3 and the use of volcaniclastic as main aggregate can improve the concrete surface color that is warm earth-tone road color. Therefore, commercial development for soil-cement concrete pavement using volcaniclastic is highly promising.

The aimed of this study is to analyze the qualities of foundry waste sand and the basic physic of the concrete mixed with the foundry waste sand, as a way of study for reusing the foundry waste sand disused in the foundry as the fine aggregate for concrete. According to the experimental results, the foundry waste sand is composed of silica ore whose main ingredient is SiO2 and doesn't produce harmful objects of hydration reaction, and the fluidity of concrete shows a decline with the increase of replacement ratio of foundry waste sand, and the compress strength, the tensile strength, the elastic modulus of concrete containing foundry waste sand are improved at the replacement rate of 25%.

Polymer cement is made by the modifying ordinary cement concrete with polymer additive. Until now polymer cement concrete is not used for the structural member, but it is growing to be considered as developing uses such as a waterproof of roof slab, the structural member for protecting corrosion, and a road pavement. The plymer cement concrete, being used for those uses, is superior to the cement concrete against the inorganic, organic acid, salt of acetic acid and organic solvents generally. In this paper, the polymer cement concrete was made by the ratio of 1:1 of sands and tailing in fine aggregate in order to solve the environmental pollution which causes the social problem by the tailing, It was measured for the compressive strength, flexural strength, and chemicals resistance was tested by dealing with 10% HCI, 20% NaOH and 10% NaCl aqueous solution.

The purpose of this study is to examine the resistance of water-permeable concretes to freezing and thawing action. The water-permeable concretes with cement-aggregate ratio of 1:5.5(by weight) and two kinds of admixture content [SP : superplasticizer(0, 1.0%), HPAE : high performance air entraining agent(0.5, 1%)] used OPC(ordinary portland cement) as binder were prepared, and then tested for relative dynamic modulus of elasiticity, mass change, length change and durablity factor. It's been concluded from the test results that the superior relative dynamic modulus of elasiticity and durability factor of water-permeable concretes were obtained at superplaciticizer 1.0% after 300 cycles. The water-permeable concretes used superplasiticizer 1.0% having relative durability factor of 88% after 300 cycles.
