Concrete has been used for many years as a composite material that has excellent mechanical properties and durability for construction. However, concrete ia a poor electrical conductor, especially under dry conditions. Concrete that is excellent in both mechanical and electrical conductivity properties may have important applications in the electrical, electronic, military and construction industry (e.g for de-icing road from snow). The purpose of this investigation is to improve the electrical conductive of cement mortar preparared with graphite as filler. From the test result, as the ratio of graphite/cement increased, fluidity, fluidity and strength decreased but resistivity decreased. The resistivity of electrical conductive cement mortar is effect by water/cement ratio and water content of specimen. From this study, it is enough to assure the use of graphite as a conductive filler for electrical conducive cement mortar.

The sea water resistance of cement and concrete must be compared when it used for construction in the ocean. The sea water resistance of the concrete specimens using three types of cements such as ordinary Portland cement, sulfate resistance Portland cement, blastfurnace slag cement were studied. In this study, an accelerated test for access sea water resistance by subjecting the concrete specimens to repeated cycles of concentrated sea water immersion and hot wind drying was employed. This study proved that sulfate resistance Portland cement had higher resistance for sea water.

However, concrete is a poor electrical conductor, especially under dry conditions. Concrete that is excellent in both mechanical and electrical conductivity properties may have important applications in the electrical, electronic, military and construction industry(e.g. for de-icing road from snow). The purpose of this investigation is to improve the electrical conductive of cement mortar preparared with coke dust, graphite, carbon black and carbon fiber as filler. From the test result, as the content of electrically conductive material increased, fluidity and strength decreased but resistivity decreased. The resistivity of electrical conductive cement mortar is effect by water/cement, and aggregate. Cement mortar containing carbon fiber has the best electrical properties considering strength. From this study, it is enough to assure the use of carbon fiber, carbon black and graphite as a conductive filler for electrical conductive cement mortar.

In Korea, more than 30,000 tons of waste Styrofoam are produced every year. Styrofoam is spent more than 500 years decomposing during the reclamation process, so it needs to be recycled. The recycling rate of waste styrofoam continues to be the third highest in the world, but it is lower than that of Germany and Japan. Therefore, measures are needed to increase the recycling rate of waste Styropol. Another problem is that cement is mainly used in existing lightweight foam concrete. However, large amounts of CO2 from cement-producing processes cause environmental pollution. Currently, Korea is increasing its greenhouse gas reduction targets to cope with energy depletion and climate change, and accelerating efforts to identify and implement reduction measures for each sector. In 2013 alone, about 600 million tons of carbon dioxide was generated in the cement industry. Therefore, this study replaces CO2 generation cement with furnace slag fine powder, uses crude steel cement for initial strength development of bubble concrete, and manufactures hardening materials to study its properties using waste styrofoam. As a result of the experiment, the hardening agent replaced by micro powder of furnace slag was less intense and more prone to absorption than cement using ordinary cement. Further experiments on the segmentation and strength replenishment of furnace slag are believed to contribute to the manufacture of environmentally friendly lightweight foam concrete.

The concrete structures in marine environment has been used type V cement(sulfate-resisting Portland cement), but according to the study results reported recently, the question has been raised for effect of the resistance to salt attack of the concrete using type V cement. It is increased the demands on the use of mineral admixtures such as fly ash, ground granulated blast-furnace slag instead of type V cement in order to improve the durability of concrete structures. Therefore, this study focused on the durability evaluation of concrete containing fly ash under marine environment, and the tests such as salt attack, carbonation, sulfate attack, and freezing-thawing were performed. Test results showed t]hat the resistance to salt attack, sulfate attack and freezing-thawing was improved, and the carbonation was in some disadvantage compared with normal concrete. Nevertheless, the durability of fly ash concrete would be maintained during the service life of structures.

Recently, the crack of concrete induced by the heat of hydration of cement is a serious problem for more greater, special and higher strength of concrete structures. The increasing concrete's temperature is mainly caused by the heat of hydration of cement and so, to control the thermal stress of concrete structure is desirable to use low heater material of hydration. There are many methods to diminish the increasing of concrete temperature such as using of low heat cement, addition of fly-ash, application of pre-cooling, etc., and in this study, we evaluate the heating and mechanical properties of ultra low heat mass concrete using Low Heat Portland(KS Type IV) cement with 30% of limestone powder. The results of this study will be applied to side wall and bottom of No. 15 and 16 of underground LNG tank in Inchon.

Recently, owing to the development of industry and the improvement of building techniques, the concrete structure is becoming larger and higher. In hardening these large concrete, the heat of hydration gives rise to considerable thermal stress depending on the size and environmental condition of concrete, which might cause thermal cracking. Especially, the crack may cause severe damage to the safety and the durability of concrete structure. This study is investigated the thermal properties of concrete according to several binder conditions, such as OPC, Belite Rich Cement(BRC), Low-Heat-Mixed Cement(LHC), Fly ash added cement. As a result of this study, the Flowability of concrete was beetter with BRC and LHC than FA(25) and OPC. On the other hand, LHC gets superior effect in the control of heat hydration, it's caused by the volume of OPC.

In recent years, due to the construction boom the demand of cement is increasing suddenly and the use of imported cement is inevitable. But, because the quality of imported cement varies quite a lot, many problems have been encountered in construction fields. These problems include hardening retardation, lower early strength and crack of concrete. The object of this study is to explain causes for hardening retardation from a construction field case and propose a solution

This study is an experiment about what affects the compressive strength by using a reducing agent (PNS based admixtures) to play cement using the cement paste based Waste Concrete Powder of waste concrete, which accounts for more than 60% of construction waste around the latest domestic and international It was. Securing the replacement of cement with Waste Concrete Powder and, by varying the admixture was to compensate for the low absorption of liquidity and obtain a fine powder. And the experiment was conducted with a constant water cement ratio and aggregate usage for the purpose of lowering the water cement ratio promoting strength development. When substituted with the experimental results of 0.3% based on 3 ~ 28 days as strength 36Mpa exhibited the highest strength.

Cement is an essential material for social infrastructure. Cement production process for cement itself is energy-intensive and requires a large amount of natural resources for fuel and raw materials. This study is to development of recycled cement from waste concrete powder in manufacturing process of recycled aggregate concrete. Recycled cement is low carbon and green growth materials concept for eco friendly construction environment. From the test results, waste concrete powder is same chemical proportion regardless of manufacturing process of recycled aggregate concrete.
