To develop more durable concrete deck, performance characteristic test of HPC(High Performance Concrete) mixtures was carried out. The parameters used in this project were ; the mineral admixture details were 4 types such as ordinary portland cement(OPC), 20% fly ash (FA), 20% fly ash and 4% silica fume(FS), and 40% ground granulated blast-furnace slag(BS). Their design compressive strengths were 27MPa and 35MPa respectively. The results showed the compressive strength of concrete did not much affect the durability of concrete. HPC with blast-furnace slag(BS) showed the good durability but was prone to crack. HPC with fly ash(FA) or with fly ash and silica fume(FS) had the good durability and crack resistance.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of rejct fly-ash and blast-furnace slag on hydration heat and strength development of ternary system cement and concrete. Main experimental variables were performed fly-ash contenes (20%) and rejct fly-ash contents (20%) and slag contents (50%, 55%). The hydration heat and insulation temperature, strength development were measured to analyze the concrete of ternary system cement

This study is aimed for investigating the engineering properties of concrete containing fly ash, slag powder and limestone powder. The results of this study are as follows; As limestone powder is incresed, slump, air loss and strength is reduced, variation ratio of length is reduced, dynamic modulus of elasticity and neutralization depth is incresed.

In this Study, it was fabricated that shrinkage reducing agent and mortar used $C_{12}A_7$-based slag enhanced the shrinkage reduction and compressive strength. To reduce cement content, setting time, flow and compressive strength of mortar with varying content of fly ash and blast furnace slag were experimented. The flow increased and setting time delayed as the increase of fly ash and blast furnace slag content. And early strength was lower and long age strength was higher than that of mortar with low content of admixture.

This study aims to completely develop a non sintered cement mortar using industrial by-products. To replace Portland cement, blast furnace slag, circulating fluidized bed fly ash, and pulverized coal fly ash were used, and natural aggregates were substituted with ferronickel slag. To understand the characteristics of the non sintered cement mortar to which ferronickel slag is applied, an experiment was conducted by classifying the particle size. Fluidity and workability were confirmed through the flow test, and bending and compressive strength tests were conducted at 3, 7, and 28 days of age. In addition, durability was identified through a chloride ion penetration test. Through the study, it is judged that the binder, which completely replaced cement and aggregate, has high potential of being used as a construction material. Notably, it was confirmed to be advantageous for strength and durability.

Recently, owing to the development of industry and the improvement of building techniques, concrete structures are becoming larger and higher. In hardening of these large connote structures, 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 investigates the thermal properties of concrete according to several binder conditions, such as OPC, Belite rich cement(BRC), slag cement(SC), blast furnace slag(B) added cement fly ash(F) added cement and blast-furnace-slag and fly ash added cement. As a result of this study, the properly of concrete is most better BRC than others, and fly ash(25%) added cement and BFS(35%)-fly ash(15%) added cement gets superior effect in the control of heat hydration. But synthetically considered properties of concrete, workablity, strength heat hydration, etc, it is more effective to use mineral admixture. Especially, to be used Blast Furnace slag is more effective.

With the advance of industrialization and urbanization, a lot of waste has been discharged and treated by incineration. But fly and bottom ashes are generated in this process. In addition, the treatment method to recycle sewage sludge and melting slag is required to manage these wastes. The objective of this research was to prepare of multi-functional brick which were made from MSWI (Municipal solid wastes incinerator) fly ash, sewage sludge and slag. The bricks were made by mixing raw materials and then drying for 24 hours. Next, they were dried for 24 hours at $160^{\circ}C$ and fired for 2 hours. Calcination temperature was changed to discuss the effect of temperature from $1,080^{\circ}C$ to $1,130^{\circ}C$. Compressive strength of a brick was creased with the increase of temperature. To increase mixing ratio of fly ash and slag reduce the compressive strength the optimal condition was the mixing ratio of fly ash : melting slag : sewage sludge : clay as 10 : 20 : 5 : 65 and $1,150^{\circ}C$ of calcination temperature. Compressive strength was obtained as about 41 MPa at this condition.

Mineral admixtures have been widely used to produce concrete. Pozzolans have been utilized as partially replacement for Portland cement or blended cement in concrete based on the materials' properties and the concrete's desired effects. Several environmental problems associated with producing cement have led to partial replacement of cement with other pozzolans. Furnace slag and fly ash are two of the pozzolans which can be appropriately used as partial replacements for cement in concrete. However, replacing cement with these materials results in significant changes in the mechanical properties of concrete, more specifically, compressive strength. This paper aims to intelligently predict the compressive strength of concretes incorporating furnace slag and fly ash as partial replacements for cement. For this purpose, a database containing 1030 data sets with nine inputs (concrete mix design and age of concrete) and one output (the compressive strength) was collected. Instead of absolute values of inputs, their proportions were used. A hybrid artificial neural network-genetic algorithm (ANN-GA) was employed as a novel approach to conducting the study. The performance of the ANN-GA model is evaluated by another artificial neural network (ANN), which was developed and tuned via a conventional backpropagation (BP) algorithm. Results showed that not only an ANN-GA model can be developed and appropriately used for the compressive strength prediction of concrete but also it can lead to superior results in comparison with an ANN-BP model.

It has been well known that concrete structures exposed to acid and sulfate environments such as sewer 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 cement mortar by forming expansive hydration products due to the reaction between cement hydration products and acid and sulfate ions. In this study, the effect of fly ash and blast furnace slag on the bond performances of structural synthetic fiber in latex modified cement mortar under sulfate environments. Fly ash and blast furnace slag contents ranging from 0 % to 20 % are used in the mix proportions. The latex modified cement mortar specimens were immersed in fresh water, 8 % sodium sulfate ($Na_2SO_4$) solutions for 28 and 50 days, respectively. Pullout tests are conducted to measure the bond performance of structural synthetic fiber from latex modified cement mortar after sulfate environments exposure. Test results are found that the incorporation of fly ash and blast furnace slag can effectively enhance the PVA fiber-latex modified cement mortar interfacial bond properties (bond behavior, bond strength and interface toughness) after sulfate environments exposure. The microstructural observation confirms the findings on the interface bond mechanism drawn from the fiber pullout test results under sulfate environments.
