  • The differential settlement on ordinary concrete buildings and paved roads are often occurred and which caused the failure of structure. The grouting method can be used for correcting the settlement of the structure. However, the grouting method has a disadvantage like that it takes a long time period to get a desired strength, and it is not a continuous in the phase of reinforced effect. In this paper, as an injecting material called GPCON to complement disadvantage, it is estimated about the characteristic that has a high-density expansion. With the changing of ground conditions and amount of injection, the change of physical strength on compression, the stability against chemical material are studied through the filming of SEM. The physical strength with compression is developed to high strength due to mixing with other material. It is not react with most of the material on chemical conditions except the component of alcohol. Through the SEM test. it is confirmed that the strength of material was increased as formation is being densified.

  • Previous studies have considered the permeability and construction method of paving materials, thus focusing on more practical issues rather than basic research of their properties. The present study investigated the possibility of using an elastic paving material having lesser thickness in the resurfacing of existing concrete or asphalt paved areas while satisfying the necessary conditions of resilience and water permeability. An alternative to complete reconstruction would reduce the amount of resource wastage and environmental pollution, as well as the cost of projects. This study investigated five variants of thickness (10, 13, 15, 20, 25mm) and three mixing ratios of binder to rubber chips (20, 22.5, 25%) to ascertain the ideal basic properties of each. The obtained test data revealed that a minimum thickness(10~25mm) of the elastic paving materials can be determined from a qualitative point of view, and alternatives should be provided to improve the durability of the paving material on account of the temperature sensitivity.

  • The 19 mm-sized aggregate was produced by melting vinyl waste (waste polyethylene film) generated from vinyl greenhouses in rural areas. It was mixed with As'cone at various weight ratios, and then insulation effect test, tension test after repeated freezing and thawing, ice pull-out strength test and field density test were conducted for the mixtures. These results demonstrated that as the mixing ratio of polyethylene aggregate increased, the insulation effect increased, due to the many pore spaces that existed in the polyethylene aggregate. After repeatedly freezing and thawing As'cone, the tensile strength significantly increased at 2.5% of the polyethylene aggregate content rather than 0% of polyethylene aggregate content but it also slightly decreased at 5% and 10% of polyethylene aggregate content in comparison to 2.5% of its polyethylene aggregate content. As'cone added with polyethylene aggregate by 2.5% resulted in lower ice pull-out strength than that of normal As'cone. As a result of the porosity test for the samples taken at the site, porosity of the As'cone, which added polyethylene aggregate, was smaller than that of the general As'cone.

  • In this research, experiments were conducted to find out whether polycarboxylate could be used as a crude steel admixture for practical work, depending on the change in the replacement level of the compound mixed into polycarboxylate. Its fluidity was satisfactory, its airspace was a bit smaller than the KS standard, and its unit volume weight was proven to meet the standard. The amount of bleeding was smallest in B2, and in terms of the solidification time, the first and the last solidification was faster in A1, B1, and C1. With regard to the compressive strength in early days as acharacteristic of hardened concrete, all addition rates of 7-day C2 displayed the highest strength value, among which the addition rate of 1.3% had the biggest strength performance tendency. The seal strength also showed the strength performance rate which was about one tenth as big as that of the compressive strength. The length change rate resulting from dryness and contraction was proven to be good, and once the appropriate AE air entraining agent is used, it is evaluated to be a very useful and practical compound out in the field.

  • Compressive axial behavior of the variable cross-section soft ground reinforced foundation is investigated from the field load test results at ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ construction site in Incheon city. Variable cross-section soft ground reinforced foundation is a type of partial-displacement pile formed by mixing bidding material with in situ soils to obtain a rigid and strong variable cross-section column in a relatively soft ground. The foundations are usually constructed as a group; however in this study, only single foundation was installed and tested under compressive axial load on foundation head. For the comparison of the variable cross-section soft ground reinforced foundation axial behavior, behavior of typical Pretensioned spun high strength concrete (PHC) pile constructed on a relatively soft ground near the surface was analyzed. It was concluded that variable cross-section soft ground reinforced foundation efficiently resists against axial load with sufficient stiffness and strength within a considerable range of axial load magnitude.

  • It is well known that shotcrete is the most important support member for the construction of large underground spaces. Generally, the strength of the field shotcrete is heavily dependent on the field mixing and spraying conditions so that it is different from the strength of the shotcrete mixed in laboratories. As a support member, the early strength of shotcrete unlike concrete is very important to the initial stabilization of the underground spaces. Therefore, the field methods to efficiently test the early strength of shotcrete have been highly required. This paper aimed to verify the pneumatic pin penetration test and the point load test for measuring the early strength of the field shotcrete. As a result of the experiments through a series of uniaxial compression, pin penetration, and point load tests for the range of the early shotcrete strength, two equations to estimate reliably the uniaxial compressive strength by the pin penetration and the point load tests were acquired.

  • The friction pendulum system(FPS) is a kind of seismic isolation devices for isolating structures from an earthquake. To analyze the effect of friction materials used in the friction pendulum system, fragility analysis of LNG tank with seismic isolation system was conducted. In this study, titanium dioxide($TiO_2$) nanoparticles were incorporated into polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF) matrix to produce friction materials attached to the FPS. The base moment of the concrete outer tank and the acceleration of the structure were evaluated from different mixing ratios of constituents for the friction materials. The seismic fragility curves were developed based on two types of limit state. It is confirmed that evaluation of combined fragility curves with several limit states can be applied to select the optimum friction material satisfying the required performance of the FPS for various infrastructure.

  • Porosity in concrete has close relationship with durability characteristics. Additionally mixed water can help easy mixing and workability but causes increased porosity, which yields degradation of durability performance. In this paper, cement mortar samples with 0.45 of w/c (water to cement ratio) are prepared and durability performances are evaluated with additional water from 0.45 to 0.60 of w/c. Various durability tests including strength, chloride diffusion, air permeability, saturation, and moisture diffusion are performed. Then they are analyzed with changing porosity. Changing ratios and the patterns of durability performance are quantitatively evaluated considering pore size distribution, total porosity, and additional water content.
