Bond strength of reinforcing bar to high-perfomance concrete using belite cement is explored using beam end test specimens. The key parameters for the bond test are slump of concrete, top bar effect, and strength of concrete in addition to concrete cover. The test results show that the specimens with belite cement concrete show approximately 10% higer bond strength than those with portland cement concrete. The results also show that the bond strength from the high strength concrete is function of the square root of concrete compressive strength. Bond strength of the top bar is less than bond strength of bottom bar, but the ratios of the bond strength of bottom-cast bars to those for top-cast bars are much less than the modification factor for top reinforcement found in the ACI 318-95 code. Comparisons with other reported tests identified that belite cement increased bond strength while silica fume or flyash used in high strength concrete decreased bond strength. The high-strength and high-slump concrete with belite cement performs well in terms of bond strength to reinforcing steel.

OPC production requires high calorific value and emits a large amount of $CO_2$ through decarbonation of limestone, accounting for about 7% of $CO_2$ emissions. To reduce $CO_2$ emissions during the Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) production process, there is a method of reducing the consumption of cement or lower temperature calcination for OPC product. In this study, for energy consumption reduction, we prepared Hauyne-belite cement by calcination at a low temperature compared to that used for OPC and studied the early hydration properties of the synthesized Hauyne-belite cement. We set the ratios of Hauyne and belite to 8 : 2, 5 : 5 and 3 : 7. For the hydration properties of the synthesized Hauyne-belite cement, we tested heat of hydration of paste and the compressive strength of mortar, using XRD and SEM for analysis of hydrates. As for our results, the temperature for optimum synthesis of Hauyne-belite is $1,250^{\circ}C$. Compressive strength of synthesized Hauyne-belite cement is lower than that of OPC, but it is confirmed that compressive strength of synthesized Hauyne-belite cement with mixing in of some other materials can be similar to that of OPC.

A study was conducted to investigate the flexural behavior of reinforced high-strength concrete beams using Belite cement. In this study, fourteen reinforced Belite and control beams were tested. The major experimental variables are compressive strength(350kgf/$cm^2$ and 600kgf/$cm^2$)of concrete and reinforcement ratios(0.0086~0.0345). They were tested by three point loading method. Comparing with flexural behavior of normal reinforced concrete beams, the investigation were to : (1) determine experimentally the load-displacement relationships and the strain distribution on the section of test beams : (2) determine experimentally the moment-curvature and the load-neutral axis relationship of Belite ; (3) investigate the flexural ductility of Belite ; (4) estimate the ratio of the capacities of nominal moment strength as a function of ACI to as a experiment. From the test results, the flexural behavior of reinforced high-strength concrete beams using Belite cement are similar to flexural behavior of normal reinforced concrete beams.

The characteristic analysis of cement clinker using light microscope can evaluate not only the quality of cement but also making process. Thus this study analyzed clinkers having different burning conditions by reflective light microscope. As heating and cooling rates is decreased, alite and belite minerals grew and especially cooling rate had an effect on the growth of belite. Futhermore as the retention time in max. temperature got longer by twenty minutes, alite and belite minerals grew more about 5 $\mu\textrm{m}$. In the case of temperature 1400$^{\circ}C$ in max, the size of belite was suitable but alite was not suitable with the size of 10～15 $\mu\textrm{m}$.

In an effort to improve the mechanical properties of the belite cement active belite cement clinker was synthesized. Properties of the clinker were characterized by a XRD, FT-IE optical microscopy and SEM. The additive effects of slag on the hydration properties were investigated by the measurement of compressive strength heat evolution and SEM. The experimental results exhibited that the 3wt% borax was effective in stabilizing $\alpha$'-C2S and the addition of 5wt% anhydrite and 40wt% slag wee effective in the hydration.

Objectives of this study is to investigate experimentally the behaviors of high strength concrete columns made with Belite cement by comparing with those of normal concrete columns. For the Belite high strength concrete columns and normal concrete columns having different core sizes, lateral reinforcement ratios and spacings, the experiment are performed and the behaviors of the columns like the confining effect are analyzed and discussed.

In hardening massive concrete, the heat of hydation gives rise to considerable thermal gradientsand thermal stresses, which might cause early age cracking. This paper deals with the results of evaluation of hydration heat of low hear concrete, using Belite rich cement (low heat cement) and compared with OPC, slag added cement and fly ash addedcement. Result of evaluation of hydration are presented in this paper. The concrete made with Belite rich cement gets low temperature of center point and low thermal gradients between surface and center points.

Recently, the Belite cement having the high fluidity, high strength, and low heat properties, was developed, and is being promoted the efforts for application on the real structures. Accordingly, for the purpose of practical use of high strength concrete using the Belite cement, was carried out the performance evaluation experiments about the structural members(column, beam, column-beam joint, steel bond strength etc.). Specimens were made in three types of concrete(Belite:350, 600kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, OPC:350kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$) by taking into account the key parameters. In this paper, were summarized the comparative experimental results on the material properties and structural performance of Belite concrete.
