This study is aimed at comparing the effect of cement mortar made of sulfuric acid treated ISO standard sand with that of cement mortar made of normal ISO standard sand. In the water absorption test, water absorption of standard sand increases with the increase of immersion time in sulfuric acid solution. The results show that at the water cement ratio of 0.5, the longer the standard sand is immersed in sulfuric acid, the greater the compressive strength of the cement mortar sample.

This study was conducted to explore the optimum proportion of zeolite and zeolite-kaolin as additives to cement clinker and gypsum samples, while maintaining the strength properties of produced environmentally sustainable cements. According to the British standard method, zeolite was added to cement clinker in proportions of 5-12% and 10-12% by weight, respectively, in the preparation of samples of zeolite-containing cement and zeolite-kaolin-based cement. Kaolin was used as a second additive as 10-20% of the total weight. The compressive strength tests were performed on base cement samples according to a standard procedure given in ASTM C109 Compressive Strength of Hydraulic Cement. These values were compared with those of the reference sample and the Omani allowable limits. The results indicated that the best compressive strength values were obtained with 88% cement clinker, 5% gypsum, and 7% zeolite for the zeolite-containing cement. Quantities of 70% cement clinker, 5% gypsum, 10% zeolite, and 15% kaolin gave the best results for zeolite-kaolin-based cement, resulting in a substitution of than 25% cement clinker. The study concluded that the partial cement clinker replacement using zeolite/kaolin combination may have a great influence on the reduction of $CO_2$ emission and energy saving in cement manufacturing.

Recently, a variety of special concrete structures have been designed in domestic and overseas construction markets and more advanced construction technology is required. Therefore, it is necessary to secure quantitative construction technology. For this purpose, it is essential to develop a standard reference material having a constant flow performance and quality to evaluate quantitative performance. On the other hand, the flowability of the concrete is greatly influenced by the flowability of the cement paste. Also, in consideration of design strength and workability, mix design is carried out at various mixing ratios according to the purpose of the site. Therefore, in this study, based on the derived components of standard reference materials for cement paste, we suggested mixing ratio of standard reference materials that can uniformly simulate the flow characteristics of cement paste according to W/C. As a result, it was found that the yield stress was determined by the ratio of water and glycerol but plastic viscosity was controled by limestone content. Finally, the ratio of standard reference materials to simulate the rheological range of cement paste by W/C was suggested.

The objective of this study is to determine an appropriate cement of soil-cement in which silty soil of salty tidal flat with low plasticity was used. Physical, chemical and mechanical tests were conducted to find out the standard properties of the soil to be used. Various cement contents used in this test were 8%, 10%, 12%, and 14%, and the compressive strength was tested after 7 days and 28 days of standard curing in the above each cement content respectively. The results obtaind are summarized as follows. 1. As the cement content was increased from 8% to 14%, Maximum dry density (M.D.D.) and optimum moisture content (O.M.C.) were not changed remarkably. 2. Density of soil-cement was directly proportional to cement content and inversely proportional to water content. 3. OMC was generally decreased in proportion to the increase of cement content. 4. Compressive stranth was directly proportional to centent and inversely proportional to water content. 5. In freezing and thawing test, maximum loss of 10% in the total Weight was found on the 8% cement mixture. and This loss was rapidly decreased to 2% when the Cement content of the mixture was more than 10%.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of accelerated curing on the strength of standard sand mortar and briquette ash mortar. The standard sand mortars and the briquette ash mortars made by mixture of the standard sand:cement and the briquette ash:cement at the ratio of 2 : 1, 3: 1 and 4 : 1, respectively, were cured at 4 different temperature of $20^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$. The compression and tensil strength of mortars were measured at ${\sigma}_3$, ${\sigma}_7$, ${\sigma}_28$. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. At each age of curing and each curing temperature, the compression and tensile strength of the mortars made by the mixture of cement and standard sand was significantly higher than that of the mortars made by the mixture of cement and briquette ash. But the increasing rate of strength in compression and tension was significantly higher at the mortars of cement and briquette ash than those of cement and standard sand. 2. The strength of mortars which showed lower strength than Korean Standard at ordinary curing temperature was significantly increased and showed higher value than Korean Standard by the accelerated curing at high temperature. The increasing rate of strength by the accelerated curing was higher at the mortars containing less amount of cement than those containing more cement. The hardening of the mortars containing less amount of cement was significantly promoted by the accelerated curing in high temperature. 3. When the briquette ash was substituted for the materials of cement mortar, decline of the mortar strength is. unavoidable. But the enhancement of the mortar strength is still expected by the experimental results that the strength of cement-briquette ash mortar showed an increase of 137.6% by the accelerated curing at $60^{\circ}C$, 164.1% at $80^{\circ}C$ C and 183.8% at $100^{\circ}C$, respectively, compared with the strength of mortar cured at $20^{\circ}C$ for 28 days. 4. As the strength of cement briquette mortar is lower than that of cement standard sand mortar, the cement briquette ash mortar is expected to be increased in strength by the accelerated curing at high temperature. The cement briquette mortar is expected to be utilized to the production of secondary mortar goods or the constructions which need low strength of mortar.

In order to investigate the utilization of industrial waste and briquette ash for concrete production, briquette ash was used as fine aggregate for mortar production and three different kinds mortars were produced by mixing carbide and bottom aches with cement. These products were compared with mortar, produced by standard sand, in the respects of compressive, tensil and bending strengths. Further study on the economic aspect of utilization of briquette ash is needed but the results obtained from our preliminary study are summarized as follows : 1. The compressive strengths at the age of seven days of mortars, made of one to two ratios of cement to briquette ash, (cement+carbide ash) to briquette ash and(cement+bottom ash) to briquette ash were 70%, 61% and 58%, respectively, of the mortar made of standard sand. The compressive strengths of those mortars at the age of 28 days were 56%, 49% and 48% of the mortar made standard sand. 2. The compressive strengths at the age of seven days of the mortar made of one to two ratios of cement to briquette ash, (cement+carbide ash) to briquette ash and (cement+bottom ash) to briquette ash were 84%, 73%, and 70% of the mortar which was produced according to Korean Standard Value. The compressive strengths of those mortars at the age of 28 days were 85%, 73% and 73% of the mortar of the Korean Standard value. 3. The tensil strengths at the age of seven days of the mortars made of one to two ratios of cement to briquette ash, (cement+carbide ash) to briquette ash, and (cement+bottom ash) to briquette ash were 64%, 36%, and 36%, respectively, of the mortar of standard sand. The tensil strengths of those mortars at the age of 28 days were 70%, 47%, and 39%, respectively, of the standard mortar. The mortars made of one to two ratios of cement to briquette ash at the age of seven and 28 days were higher than the mortars of Korean Standard. The other mortars were 61 to 62% at the age of seven days and 75 to 90% at the age of 28 days of the Korean Standard mortar, respectively. 4. The bending strengths at the age of seven days of mortar made of one to two ratios of cement to briquette ash, (cement+carbide ash) to briquette ash, and (cement+bottom ash) to briquette ash were 46%, 53% and 50% of the mortar of standard sand. The bending strengths of those mortars at the age of 28 days were 90%, 77% and 69%, respectively of the mortar of standard sand. 5. The mortar of briquette ash which was lower in strengths compared with the mortar of cement have shown possibility of its secondary products of cement and concrete. The uses of briquette ash and industrial waste as construction materials would contribute toward solving various pollution problems caused by industrial wastes and saving labor costs needed to cleaning up. Furthermore, the effective use of briquette ash would greatly save the aggregate resources.

This study was conducted by the slump test and the consistency test of the cement mixed soil which is soil mixed with cement to investigate and estimate the difficulty degree of work and the proper water content. So I would like to present the fundamental data that establish the work standard of the cement mixed soil. In conclusion, in this study the slump value of the cement mixed soil increases over-all according to the increase of the water content although it has a little difference of the increase range and it is smaller than one of the soil. It is estimated that the aggregating and throwing work of the cement mixed soil which is mixed with 6% and 9% cement would be fine when it has the $25%{\sim}27%$ water content and the wall plastering work is the $30%{\sim}32%$ and the floor plastering work is the $30%{\sim}35%$ and the flowing and pouring work is the $40%{\sim}42%$ water content as well as the mold compacting work is the 20%.

The solidification and leaching characteristics of cyclone ash collected from an industrial incineration plant were investigated. Cement and calcium hydroxide were used as the solidifying materials. The leaching characteristics of the solidified cyclone ash were found to vary depending on both the quantitative and the qualitative aspects of the solidifying materials. Except for copper and lead, all the heavy metal ions in the leachate of the solidified material composed of 10~20 % cement or 10~20 % calcium hydroxide were found to be within their standard limit. Moreover, all the heavy metal ions were also observed to be within satisfactory limits in the leachate obtained from the solidified material composed of 30 % cement or 30 % calcium hydroxide. Therefore, to satisfy the standard compressive intensity and permissible limits of heavy metal ions leached from solidified material, it would appear that a 30 % proportion of either additive in the solidification product can meet the required standard for the leachate. The cost of solidifying cyclone ash per ton for ash-30 % cement and ash-30 % lime was calculated as 26,750 and 26,070 won, respectively. Accordingly, significant reduction in the waste toxicity and mobility as well as an improvement in the engineering properties of the solidified products were successfully achieved.
