Semiempirical MO calculations are applied to estimate the substituent effects on acylations of the nonfused N-vinyl-2-amino $\beta-lactams$ having frameworks analogous to 3-cephems. The stabilization energy for the reaction intermediate of the nucleophilic attack by the hydroxide ion is selected as the reactivity index and calculated by AM1 and PM3 methods for the model $\beta-lactams$ with substituents at the C1 and N-vinyl terminal positions. The reactivities are larger for -SH connected to the C1 and strong $\pi-acceptors$ at the N-vinyl terminal implying the large reactivity for known active cephalosporins. Quantum chemical calculation of stabilization energy could be useful in correlating antibiotic activities of many compounds obtained as derivatives of a lead compound.

The rates of hydrolysis of N-(benzenesulfonyl) benzimidoyl chlorides (p-H, $p-CH_3,\;p-CH_3,\;p-NO_2\;and m-NO_2$) have been measured by UV spectrometry in 60% methanol-water at $25^{\circ}C$ and a rate equation which can be applied over wide pH range was obtained. Below pH 7.00, the substituent effect on the hydrolysis rate of N-(benzenesulfonyl) benzimidoyl chloride was found to conform to the Hammett ${\sigma}$ constant with ${\rho}$ = -0.91, whereas above pH 9.00, with ${\rho}$ = 0.94. On the basis of the rate equation obtained and the effect of solvent, substituents and salt, the following reaction mechanism were proposed; below pH 7.00, the hydrolysis of N-(benzenesulfonyl) benzimidoyl chloride proceeds by $S_N1$ mechanism, however, above pH 9.00, the hydrolysis is initiated by the attack of the hydroxide ion and in the range of pH 7.00-9.00, these two reactions occur competitively.

It has been well known that concrete structures exposed to acid and sulfate environments such as sewer, sewage and wastewater, soil, groundwater, and seawater etc. show significant decrease in their durability due to chemical attack. Such deleterious acid and sulfate attacks lead to expansion and cracking in concrete, and thus, eventually result in damage to concrete matrix by forming expansive hydration products due to the reaction between portland cement hydration products and acid and sulfate ions. Objectives of this experimental research are to investigate the effect of mineral admixtures on the resistance to acid and sulfate attack in concrete and to suggest high-resistance concrete mix against acid and sulfate attack. For this purpose, concretes specimens with three types of cement (ordinary portland cement (OPC), binary blended cement (BBC), and ternary blended cement (TBC) composed of different types and proportions of admixtures) were prepared at water-biner ratios of 32% and 43%. The concrete specimens were immersed in fresh water, 5% sulfuric acid, 10% sodium sulfate, and 10% magnesium sulfate solutions for 28, 56, 91, 182, and 365 days, respectively. To evaluate the resistance to acid and sulfate for concrete specimens, visual appearance changes were observed and compressive strength ratios and mass change ratios were measured. It was observed from the test results that the resistance against sulfuric acid and sodium sulfate solutions of the concretes containing mineral admixtures were much better than that of OPC concrete, but in the case of magnesium sulfate solution the concretes containing mineral admixtures was less resistant than OPC concrete due to formation of magnesium silicate hydrate (M-S-H) which is non-cementitious.

This study is to evaluate the effect of chemical attack on durability and deterioration of lining concrete in tunnel. Surface examination, nondestructive inspection, uniaxial compressive strength test, carbonation test, chloride diffusion test, micro-structural analysis were performed to analyze the deterioration of lining concrete in tunnel constructed 70 years ago. From surface examination results, the tunnel had been repaired and reinforced in several times. It has many cracks, water-leakage, efflorescence and exploitation. Compressive strengths obtained from nondestructive inspection and uniaxial compressive strength test have measured $17.5{\sim}34.7MPa$, and $12.8{\sim}40.3MPa$, respectively. Carbonation depth specimen cored from concrete lining has ranged from 3mm to 27mm. From chloride diffusion test, most specimens have low permeability. And the XRD analysis was able to detect ettringite and thaumasite, which were confirmed by SEM and EDS results to be the causes for the deterioration of lining concrete.

Scour is the physical or chemical attack of flowing water which excavates and carries away material from stream beds and banks. Especially, hydraulic structures such as bridge piers and abutments placed in the channel causes the changes of the flow pattern like acceleration, the formation of vortices, and scour around the structures. Channel scour, especially bridge pier scour is the leading cause of bridge failures. It is very important to apply appropriate methods for both of scour analysis and protection. In this paper, several methods world-widely used for bridge scour analysis and protection are introduced and compared.

Recently, we are facing with the trend of demanding high durability concrete for creek structures. When creek structures are deteriorated, it is very difficult to repair them. The objective of this paper is to develop a mixing model for high durability creek concrete having 300kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ compressive strength. According to the result of durability experiment, high durability concrete for creek structures has high resistance of air permeability, absorption, chloride diffusion, and chemical attack.

This study investigated the strength of shotcrete with aluminate accelerator to connect with the proper repair methods or monitoring skills in subway, cable tunnel and underground storage. In order to approach these goals, the shotcrete specimens were exposed to acid, sulfate and seawater environments, and strength properties of the shotcrete suffering from the attacking sources were examined.

The most important factor when designing coastal and offshore concrete structures is durability. However, concrete in marine environment is exposed to physical and chemical deterioration of seawater, which might easily lead to low quality. The purpose of the present study is to understand advantages of adding ground solidificaton materials by comparatively analyze the seawater resistance of general concrete and environmental-friendly ground solidification materials.
