Recently, as carbon neutrality has been important factor in the construction industry, many studies have been conducted on the high-volume fly ash concrete. High volume fly ash concrete(HVFC) is usually made by replacing more than 50% of cement with fly ash. However, HVFC has a disadvantage of low compressive strength in early age. To overcome this shortcoming of HVFC, improve this, interest in techonolgy using nanomaterials is increasing. Nano silica is expected to improve the early age strength of HVFC as a pozzolanic material. This study investigated the effect of nano silica on the early hydration reaction and microstructure of HVFC. The early hydration reaction of HFVC was analyzed through setting time, isothermal calorimeter, compressive strength and thermal weight analysis. In addition, the microstructure of HVFC was measured by mercury intrusion porosimetry. From the test results, it was confirmed that nano silica increased the early age strength and improve the microstructure of HVFC.

This paper investigates the manufacturing and fundamental quality characteristics of potassium magnesia phosphate-based non-cement high-volume fly ash repair mortar. To derive the optimal mix for non-cement mortar, the manufacturing characteristics were evaluated based on the magnesia ratio, and the mortar manufacturing characteristics were assessed with the fly ash mixture. Additionally, the non-cement magnesia repair mortar was produced considering the effects of fly ash mixture and basalt fiber. The evaluation results determined the optimal mix of non-cement magnesia repair mortar, and the feasibility was examined through workability and fundamental quality assessments. The optimal magnesia ratio was found to be P:M 1:0.5, with W/B at 30 %. It was also confirmed that mixing FA and basalt fiber improves fiber dispersion and workability. Even with over 50 % FA mixture, the target strength was achieved within six hours, with a flow increase of up to 18 % and a flexural strength decrease of about 1-2 MPa.

Recently, a large number of researches about concrete containing high volume fly-ash(HVFA) have been carried to obtain carbon dioxide reduction, resource recycle and durable option in concrete industry. The quality of fly-ash such as chemical composition and fineness has high variability due to the differences of used fuels, operation condition in power plant. The aim of this study is to investigate the performances of fly-ash cement mortar containing different type of fly-ashes. The basic analysis of fly ash such as chemical composition, SEM image analysis were performed. Many mortar specimens were fabricated to evaluate the properties (compressive strength, drying shrinkage and carbonation) of mortar with various fly ash. From the test results, the quality of each fly ash must be considered and fully weighted in fly ash concrete.

In this study, the application results of high volume fly ash concrete(HVFAC) on the construction site were reported. The structures were the mat foundations of 3m and 2m thickness with design strength of 40MPa. The replacement ratio of fly ash was 50%, and the pre-mix type binder was used. As a result, it appeared that the temperature increases of concrete foundations were about $39^{\circ}$C for 3m thickness and $36^{\circ}$C for 2m thickness.

In this study we investigated the properties of the fundamental and adiabatic temperature rise of the concrete using high volume fly-ash. For this, the fly ash was used to replace cement at replacement ratio of 40% and 50% by mass, and then the slump, air content, bleeding, compressive strength and adiabatic temperature rise test of concrete were performed.

For evaluating basic structural behavior of HVFA (High Volume Fly Ash) concrete, several tests are performed considering different ratios of fly ash replacement and structural evaluation regarding compressive strength, elasticity modulus, stress-strain relationship, and bond strength is also performed. Test results show that elasticity modulus of HVFA concrete has close relationships with compressive strength and fly ash replacement ratio. The ultimate strain shows slight difference from domestic design code. On the other hand, there are no differences between general concrete and HVFA concrete for elasticity modulus and bond strength.

In this study, the characteristics of strength development and hydration heat on high volume fly ash concrete(HVFAC) was experimentally investigated. Two levels of W/B were selected. Seven levels of fly ash replacement ratios and two levels of silica fume replacement ratios were adopted. In the concrete mix, the water content of $125kg/m^3$ was used, which is less than that of usual water content. As a result, it appeared that the compressive strength gradually decreased with increasing fly ash replacement ratio at the early age, but the difference of strength up to replacement ratio of 50% was little at the age of 91 days because of the pozzolanic reaction of fly ash. The effect of hydration heat reduction on the concrete was affected by the fly ash replacement ratio. When the replacement ratio was over 30%, the reduction efficiency of hydration heat was large.

In this study, it does a high volume flyash substituted concrete experiments in two curing temperature circumstances - 35$^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$. High volume flyash concrete is tested in fresh concrete properties and hardeded concrete properties. In the fresh concrete test items, there is slump, air contents, concrete setting tests. 3, 7, and 28 days water curing compressive strength is measured in the hardened concrete test. The purpose of this study is to submit a various flyash concrete data for application to field. The result of this study is that the best strength is developed at the plain concrete cured 2$0^{\circ}C$ and Mixing F43 shows the best strength among specimens which cured at 35$^{\circ}C$

Fly ash has the advantages, among others, of improving the characteristics of concrete, reducing the price of concrete products, improving the durability, and reducing hydration heat. However, when added in mass, it leads to problems such as insufficient concrete intensity, increase of AE use, and others, resulting in a limitation of the use volume. Therefore, this study is undertaken to solve the problems associated with themass use of fly ash through the high concentration powder ($4000{\sim}8000cm^2/g$) of fly ash, curing method, the addition of an alkali stimulation agent and others for the purpose of increasing the added value of the fly ash. The research showed that the intensity manifestation has an outstanding status, with the hydrates reaching a very stable condition if the rate of addition of a stimulation agent is appropriately used with the heightening of the fineness of the fly ash in the temperature range of $40^{\circ}C$, and if the applicable study is continued, it is likely to result ineffective value generation on the massive replacement of fly ash.
