In this Study, we manufactured the 70, 100MPa grade high strength concrete with the land sand by batcher plant in the field. In order to verify attainment of design compressive strength and the durability of the manufactured concretes we examined the tests such as compressive strength test, freeze-thaw test, carbonation test, test for concrete's ability to resist chloride ion penetration.

Coating performance of various coating systems including chlorinated rubber and epoxy/urethane used most for steel structures of highway in Korea, was evaluated by exposing test specimen to complex deterioration factors such as ultraviolet ray, moisture, freeze-thaw cycle and salt. Deteriorated specimens were evaluated by chalking and rust grades according to ASTM, and measurement of color differences and adhesion. In overall coating performances such as corrosion resistance, photochemical stability, and adhesion, ceramic/ urethane, moisture-curable urethane/ urethane, etc. were superior. As for other coating materials tested in this study, superior materials against certain deterioration factors may be inferior against other factors. Accordingly, in order to select suitable maintenance coating materials for the use, it is thought that investigation of suitability through experiment should precede selection of materials, especially for unusual coatings or paints.

The theory on phase change temperature control and nucleation of PCM was suggested in this research. The crystallization model of PCM was established. And H2O-NaCl mixtures were selected as cold storage materials for agricultural products and thermo-physical properies of the PCM were analyzed with experimental processes including freeze-thaw cycles.

Retrogradation characteristics of the acetylated and raw starch were investigated with the chucheongbyeo and Samkangbyeo. The freeze-thaw stability and syneresis on starch gel were more stable and lower in acetylated rice starch, suggested that the rice starch acetylated with acetyl group is more stable in the various conditions. The retrogradation time constant of acetylated rice starch gel from the Chucheongbyeo and Samkangbyeo which were measured at 5$^{\circ}C$ storage were 11.7 days and 10.2 days, respectively. In addition, the retrogradation time constant in 21$^{\circ}C$ were 50.5 days and 49.8 days, indicating that retrogradation was noticiably retarded in this occation.

During recent years the durability of concrete structures has attracted considerable interest in concrete practice, material research and long-term deformation. To preserve the brittleness of concrete as well as energy absorption and impact resistance, amount of fiber usage has greatly increased year to year in the field of public works. When fly ash, fine powder, mixed into concrete, it condensed the void of concrete structure. Expecially, there's a great effect for strength improvement of concrete by initial pozzolanic reactions. Pozzolan reaction, between cement particle and fly ash, can elaborate the micro structure of matrix. So it was able to improve the effect of fiber reinforced by increased adhesion between cement paste and steel fiber. And so, in this paper, we dealt SFRC for the purpose of efficiently using of industrial by-products and its economical manufacturing. Also we performed the test for durability such as chemical resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and accelerated carbonation of SFRC using fly ash.

Radioactive N-$\alpha$-p-nitrobenzoxycarbonyl (NBZ)-L-[2,$3-^{3}$H] arginyl diazomethane was used as an affinity label for the vacuolar arginine transporter in Neurospora crassa. Vacuolar matrix proteins were removed by fracturing the membranes with freeze-thaw method in dry ice/ethanol bath. Vacuolar membrane proteins were then wasged with 500mM NaCl to remove ionically bound derivatives and peripheral membrane proteins from vacuolar membranes. After dissolved in 1% Titon X-100, dissolved vacuolar memvrane proteins were separated with molecular sieve column chromatography, anion and cation exchange chromatographies. The arginine transporter was purified giving the purification factor of 1136.

Latex modified concrete (LMC) has grown to be accepted as a standard material of construction overlaying bridge decks in America due to its superior physical and chemical properties. The properties of latex, combined with the low water-cement ratio, produce a concrete that has improved flexural, tensile, and bond strength, lower modulus of elasticity, increased freeze-thaw resistance, and reduced permeability compared to conventional concrete of similar mix design. LMC overlays have been service in excellence for 30 years on thousands of bridge in U.S.A. This may, also, prolong the life cycle of bridge deck once it is adopted in Korea. The self-contained, mobile, continuous mixer is most appropriate particularly for concrete quality assurance. Assuring quality on a bridge deck overlay project should begin in the design phase and continue after the construction is completed. Quality should be the concern of everyone involved-owner, designer, and contractor.

The use of steel fiber reinforced to improve the strength and flexural toughness of concrete is well known, but reinforcement of polymer concrete with steel fibers has been hardly reported till now. Polymer concrete has high strength, durability and freeze-thaw resistance than that of cement concrete, but it has disadvantage such as low flexural toughness. In this paper, the strength characteristics and flexural toughness of steel fiber reinforced polymer concrete are investigated experimentally with various steel fiber aspect ratios($\ell$/d), and contents(vol.%). As the result, the flexural and splitting tensile strengths and flexural toughness were increased aspect ratio, and reach the maximums at a aspect ratio of 50. The relationship between the compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strength were high. And the relationship between flexural strength and strain energy was approximately linear.

If microorganisms are injected into porous medium such as soils along with appropriate substrate and nutrients, soil pore size and shape are changed from the initial condition as a result of biofilm formation, which make hydraulic conductivity reduced. In this research, hydraulic conductivity reduction was measured after specific bacterium or fungus was inoculated into soil pore. Hydraulic conductivity was decreased to 10 % ∼ 1 % and maintained constant while substrate was provided. Under the adverse conditions such as no substrate, chemical solution permeation, and freeze-thaw cycles, hydraulic conductivity was increased 30∼50%. Hydraulic conductivity decrease of fungus-soil mixture was faster than that of bacterium-soil mixture. Fungus-soil mixture, however, was more sensitive to the adverse conditions.

In the case of concrete structures which have been recently exposed to the marine environment, durability is greatly reduced by the freezing-thawing action. When it is used by appropriately replacing the ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBS) that is a industrial by-product, the concrete structure of marine environment is known to have a durability to freezing-thawing resistance. In this experiment, micropore in accordance with a replacement ratio of GGBS was confirmed to show different results respectively. The freeze-thaw resistance was showed different aspects respectively because it is different the amount of water in the pore due to the difference of micropore. Therefore, in this study, the freezing-thawing resistance of sea water by variation of micropores of slag concrete had been evaluated.
