Ready-mixed shotcrete that mixed with high quality aggregate and can improve construction quality is produced in a dry mortar plant and transported to construction sites. Because of using aggregate that produced in a special plant, Ready-mixed shotcrete has many advantages : good grain-size distribution, minimum stone powder, high quality and standardization material, etc. In this basic study different from the existing study that limited to additive and accelerator, the improvement of aggregate quality was tried to upgrade the shotcrete performance. The investigation about the construction conditions of shotcrete was performed and the result of an opinion poll was analyzed for a good grasp of the problems in domestic shotcrete quality. Pilot Plant Test was also performed to minimize the material segregation in plant manufacturing process. In additions, the field test was performed to find the optimum contents of synthetic fiber, appearing the same flexible toughness with that of steel fiber, and to find the optimum replacement ratio of blast furnace slag.

This study aims to make artificial stone by recycling blast furnace slag powder, red mud and recycled aggregate, which are known as industrial waste. Recycled aggregate is a typical construction waste, and various recycled products such as concrete block are being sold. In this study, we tried to make artificial stone mixed with waste such as recycled aggregate, and experimented with the use of artificial stone and further study. As the red mud replacement ratio increased, the absorption ratio, fluidity and air content of the matrix were measured to be decreased, and the strength and density were found to increase. The fluidity and absorption ratio decreased with increasing the replacement ratio of recycled aggregate, and the air quantity, rate of aggregate on the surface, density and intensity increased to a certain level. Therefore, this study intends to make artificial stone using recycled resources and conducted basic experiments for further study.

The aim of the research is to evaluate the influence of various replacing ratios of supplementary cementitious materials(SCMs) such as fly ash(FA), blast furnace slag(BS), and both FA and BS on general properties including segregation resistance as a powder based high fluidity concrete of normal strength grade with water-to-cement ratio 0.40. Specifically, by replacing the SCMs with low density powders, it was assessed that the decreased segregation resistance due to the decreased viscosity by J-ring test. As a result of the experiment, from the general test, the mixtures with SCMs showed increased segregation resistance by increased viscosity as the references, while some segregation was shown from J-ring test due to the decreased density of fresh state mixture related with the capacity of delivering coarse aggregate.

In this study, the basic properties of CO₂ immobilized desulfurized gypsum (CFBG) and the possibility of being used as a stimulus for slag cement were reviewed, and performance evaluation was conducted through a concrete mixing test. The main components of CFBG were CaO and SO₃, and CaO and SO₃ increased as the drying temperature increased. The moisture content of undried CFBG was 15.7 %, the drying temperature was 1.7 % and the drying temperature was 0.03 % at 105 ℃. Mortar using CFBG tended to have a lower flow value as the drying temperature increased, and the compressive strength was equivalent to that of the FGB use mixture. As a result of the concrete experiment using CFBG SC, both slump and air volume satisfied the target range after 60 minutes, and the compressive strength tended to increase overall compared to the ternary binder mixture.

In this study, the replacement effects of cementitious materials (fly ash, blast furnace slag, and blended mixtures) were assessed for normal strength concrete with very low shrinkage properties under $350{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ strain using a powder type shrinkage reducing agent. In addition, through mock-up tests of actual size walls restrained with four sides, the shrinkage characteristics using the power type shrinkage reducing agent were measured and the crack reducing ability was assessed. The slump and air contents were measured as the properties of fresh concrete, and the length changes of the prismatic specimens, $100{\times}100{\times}400mm$ in size, were measured for the shrinkage characteristics. To reduce the shrinkage of concrete, the maximum replacing ratio of the fly ash is effective to 20 percent; however, the use of blast furnace slag and ternary mixtures did not reduce the shrinkage.

In this study, the effect of blast furnace slag and gypsum addition on strength development of fly ash substituted concrete is investigated experimentally. As a result, the fluidity represented a similar or larger level than that of OPC but showed a tendency to decrease the fluidity according to the increase in the replacement level of BS and GS for the FA replacement concrete. In the case of the air content, although it showed a larger decrease compared to that of OPC, it also represented that BS and GS did not affect the air content significantly. Regarding the compressive strength in the case of the replacement of BS and GS for the FA 10% replacement concrete, it showed a higher early strength than OPC. Whereas, in the case of the BS 5% replacement and GS 1% incorporation for the FA 10% replacement concrete showed the most excellent performance due to its high strength. In the correlation of the compressive strength according to the kinds of admixtures, it was evident that the GS incorporation played an important role in high strength gain.

Recently, in Korea, there has been an increasing number of research papers published which are to improve durability of concrete, particularly by analyzing correlation between diffusivity of chloride and porosity/pore size distribution. In these studies, such test methods as mercury intrusion porosimetry(MIP), gas adsorption or image analysis method are used to analyze the microstructure of materials while MIP is most widely used for concrete. This study analyzes the results of porosity and pore size distribution of paste and concrete adding fly ash or blast furnace slag by using MIP equipment which is widely used for determining micro-porosity structure of cementitious materials. A variation in porosity and pore size distribution at the curing day 3, 7 and 28 has been observed by using MIP equipment for cement paste 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60% of W/C when using $300kg/m^3$ of cement, 35%, 45%, 55% of W/C when replaced 60% with blast-furnace slag, and 35%, 45%, 55% of W/C when replaced 30% with fly ash. For long-term water cured normal OPC concrete and mixed concrete replaced 60% with blast-furnace slag powder, micro-structure of the sample has been analyzed by using MIP equipment when W/C indicated 40%, 45%, 50% respectively and the binder varied $300kg/m^3$, $350kg/m^3$, $400kg/m^3$, and $450kg/m^3$.
