Wasted phosphogypsum is a by-product from the phosphoric acid process of manufacturing fertilizers. It consists mainly of $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ and contains some impurities. The purpose of this study is to utilize wasted phosphogypsum into an admixture for concrete products cured by steam This paper is to investigate the strength properties of cement composites containing high volume phosphogypsum. The cement composites were composed of OPC, phosphogypsum, fly-ash and granulated blast-furnace slag with activators. As a result, the strength of cement composites containing high volume wasted phosphogypsum were shown high level when granulated blast-furnace slag was mixed. Therefore, PG could be used as a steam curing admixture for concrete 2th production with reduction of OPC.

In order to enhance the greenness in the strain-hardening composites and to reduce the high cost of typical polyvinyl alcohol fiber reinforced engineered cementitious composite (PVA-ECC), an affordable strain-hardening composite with green binder content has been proposed. For optimizing the strain-hardening behavior of cementitious composites, this paper investigates the effects of polypropylene fibers on the first cracking strength, fracture properties, and micromechanical parameters of cementitious composites. For this purpose, digital image correlation (DIC) technique was utilized to monitor crack propagation. In addition, to have an in-depth understanding of fiber/matrix interaction, scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis was used. To understand the effect of fibers on the strain hardening behavior of cementitious composites, ten mixes were designed with the variables of fiber length and volume. To investigate the micromechanical parameters from fracture tests on notched beam specimens, a novel technique has been suggested. In this regard, mechanical and fracture tests were carried out, and the results have been discussed utilizing both fracture and micromechanical concepts. This study shows that the fiber length and volume have optimal values; therefore, using fibers without considering the optimal values has negative effects on the strain-hardening behavior of cementitious composites.

이 연구의 목적은 고연성·친환경 건설 재료인 하이볼륨 슬래그 섬유보강 복합재료에서 물결합재비와 섬유 종류가 압축강도와 인장성능에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 조사하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 물결합재비와 섬유의 종류를 다르게 혼입하여 4가지 배합의 실험체를 제작하였고, 압축 및 인장실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 압축강도는 섬유 종류에 따른 영향은 미미하였으나, WB40 계열 배합에 비해 WB50 계열 배합이 29 % 낮은 것으로 나타나 물결합재비에 따른 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 반면 인장특성에는 물결합재비 영향보다 섬유의 종류에 따른 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 인장변형성능은 2.9 %에서 6.2 %로 측정되었으며, PVA 계열 배합에 비해 PE 계열 배합이 1.63 배~2.14 배 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 PE 계열 배합의 균열패턴도 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
