On investigation about quick measurement technology of unit water at range of W/B=35% in high strength, the average error of the Di-electric constant moisture tester A has measured more than $23.0kg/m^3$ unit water content of design and the average error of the method of unit volume weigh was less than $-9.6kg/m^3$. The average error with mixing factor has influenced with a kind of sand, but had not influenced with unit water content of design. Therefore, it will be for introduce business decide require more than a study about cement, sand, superplasticizer, etc.

Recently, as the use of high-performance concrete has become common, various problems related to high-performance concrete have become an issue. Among them, self-shrinkage of cement paste due to low water cement ratio is known to cause problems in the volume stability of concrete. To improve this, studies related to the mixing technology of cement-based materials and nano materials have been actively conducted. Looking at the results of prior research related to nano material mixing technology, generally, research results have been reported in which nano materials are incorporated into cement-based materials to improve material properties1). Among them, it was shown that the mechanical performance and various types of functionality of the cement composite are expressed. Among nano materials, carbon nanotubes (hereinafter referred to as CNTs) and graphenes are used in a mixture with cement-based materials. Accordingly, this study intends to compare the mechanical properties by incorporating various CNTs and graphene into cement paste.

The purpose of this study was performed to investigate the optimum conditions of pH, concrete sludge, seed dosage, mixing intensity, operation time in treating fluoride-containing wastewater as $CaF_2$ using the ready-mixed concrete sludge. Considering fluoride removal, water content, that pH 6, concrete sludge dosage of 10 g/L, Seed dosage ($CaF_2$) of 2 g/L, mixing intensity of 100 rpm and operation time of 60 min were found to be optimum. Correspondingly, removal of fluoride and water content was about 85% and 64%, respectively. Increase in amount of seed dosage did not affect fluoride removal efficiency. but the result that the water content is decreased was shown up in occuring the solid-liquid separation well.

In comparison with ordinary or heavy-weight concrete, light-weight air void concrete has the good aspects in optimizing super tall structure systems for the process of design considering wind load and seismic load by lightening total dead load of buildings and reducing natural resources used. Light-weight air void concrete has excellent properties of heat and sound insulating due to its high amount porosity of air voids. So, it has been used as partition walls and the floor of Ondol which is the traditional Korean floor heating system. Under the condition of which the supply of light-weight aggregates are limited, the development of light-weight concrete using air voids is highly required in the aspects of reduced manufacturing prices and mass production. In this study, we investigated the physical properties and thermal behaviors of specimens that applied different mixing ratios of foaming agent to evaluate the possibility of use in the structural elements. We proposed the estimating equation for compressive strength of each mix having different ratio of foaming agent. We also confirmed that the density of cement matrix is decreased as the mixing amount of foaming agent increase up to 0.6% of foaming agent mixing ratio which was observed by SEM. Based on porosity and compressive strength of control mortar without foaming agent, we built the estimating equations of compressive strength for mortars with foaming agent. The upper limit of use in foaming agent is about 0.6% of the binder amount. Each air void is independent, and size of voids range from 50 to $100{\mu}m$.

This study as using admixture (G), high early strength agent, calcium hydroxide {a(OH)2} and fine particle cement, etc which have been newly developed for the purpose of quality improvements like the improvement of early strength of concrete that the FA was substituted by 20%, etc, reviewed the possibility of the utilization in the great quantity and the results are summarized as the followings. Slump loss by the kind of mixing material of high early strength agent and Ca(OH)$_2$ showed the smaller width of decrease than that of plain to appear the improved results and fine particle cement and G admixture showed the large slump loss. Air contents were appeared to satisfy the target air contents at all mixing materials. Regarding the compressive strength of the concrete by the kind of mixing material, G admixture was appeared to be highest all on aging 3 days, 7days and 28days at the initial strength. And fine particle cement and high early strength agent showed higher strength increase rate on aging 3days than plain but showed that the increase of strength becomes gradually dulled as aging is increased. And Ca(OH)$_2$ had almost no effect.

This study shows some results of concrete mixing design has 100 years life time. The ratios of ternary blended cement are 4 types. the ratios of blast furnace slag cement are 3 types. In this case study, 40%, 50% and 60% replacement ratio of blast furnace slag(BSF) to OPC are used, also 35:45:20, 30:35:35, 30:40:30 and 35:40:25 ratio of OPC:BSF:FA are used. The mixing design tests include slump, air content, compressive strength and thermal properties of concrete. The compressive strength tests are executed at the age of 3, 7, 28, 56, and 91 days. The coefficient of chloride diffusion is determined by NT Build 492 method. The purpose of this study is to shows the results of case studies as the ratio of blended cement varies.

The stone dusts produced during the manufacturing process of stone blocks are considered as one of industrial waste materials. This stone dusts are managed to either burying under the ground or stacking in the yard, but this disposal process is required an extra costs. The stone dust disposal like burying or stacking also cause environmental pollution such as ground pollution and subterranean water pollution. Thus, this study was conducted to explore the possibility of recycling stone dusts as a concrete mixing material in order to extend recycling methods. Based on the experiment results on various ratios of cement to stone dust content, the compressive strengths of concrete were recorded in the range of $20{\sim}30\;N/mm^2$. The results did not show any decrease in compressive strength due to the stone dust content. It can be concluded that the stone dusts produced by stone block manufacturing can be sufficiently recycled as one of concrete mixing materials in the aspect of compressive strength.

The stone sludge disposal like burying or stacking also cause environmental pollutions such as ground pollution and subterranean water pollution. Thus, this study was conducted to explore the possibility of recycling of stone dust sludge as a concrete mixing material in order to extend recycling methods and to solve the shortage of aggregate caused by recently increased demand in construction. Based on the experiment results on various ratios of cement to stone sludge content, the compressive strengths of concrete were recorded in the range of $20{\sim}30N/mm2$. The results did not show any decrease in compressive strength due to the stone dust content. It can be concluded that the stone sludge produced by stone block manufacturing can be sufficiently recycled as one of concrete mixing materials in the aspect of compressive strength.

To increase freeze-thaw resistance of porous concrete, this study examined physical properties of polymer by replacing paste used as a binding material with polymer, using unsaturated polyester and epoxy resin, and changing the mixing ratio of polymer. According to the result of this study, when the mixing ratio of resin paste to aggregates was 11 to 16%, voids volume was 33 to 37% and unit weight was about 1620 to 1720kg/$m^3$. In comparison with previous studies using cement paste, voids volume increased by about 7 to 16%, while unit weight decreased by about 100 to 300kg/$m^3$. Compressive strength was 90 to 155kg/$cm^2$ at the age of 7 days, which was 5-40kg/$cm^2$ bigger than porous concrete using cement paste. From a viewpoint of freeze-thaw resistance, it was identified that pluse velocity fell by 0.23km/sec, about 7% of the original velocity, when the cycle of freeze-thaw was repeated 300 times. In spite of 300 repetitions of the cycle, relative dynamic modulus of elasticity was more than 60%, which suggested that its freeze-thaw resistance was more excellent compared with the result that relative dynamic modulus of elasticity of porous concrete using cement paste was 60 % or less under the condition of 80 repetitions of freeze-thaw cycle.
