In this paper, mechanical properties of the high strength lightweight self-compacting concrete with simple mixed design method was investigated. Experimental tests were performed as such compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and density of high strength lightweight self-compacting concrete. The 28 days compressive strength of high strength lightweight self-compacting concrete with the LC replacement ratio of $100\%$ reduces about $31\%$ but LF replacement ratio of $100\%$ increase about $20\%$ compared that of the control concrete. The structural efficiency of high strength lightweight self-compacting concrete increase with proportional to the replacement into of LF. The relationship between the splitting tensile strength and 28 days compressive strength can be represented by the equation $f_s=0.076f_{ck}+0.5582$. The modulus of elasticity was found to be lower than that of normal weight concrete, ranging form 24 to 33 GPa.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the shear strength of high-strength SFRC beam by the comparison of normal-strength SFRC beam. To achieve the goal of this study, 9th specimens were made and tested. From the analyzing test result and previous researches, the shear strengthening effect of steel fiber in high-strength is evaluated as superior than normal-strength concrete. And the proposed shear strength equation of SFRC is underestimated the shear capacity of high-strength SFRC beam. Finally, the shear strengthening effect of steel fiber in high-strength concrete is evaluated about 3.5 times larger than normal-strength concrete.

In recent years, the applications of high-strength concrete have increased, and high-strength concrete has now been used in many parts of the world. The growth has been possible as a. result of recent developments in material technology and a demand for higher-strength concrete in Korea. In this study, we have an object to produce the ultra-high strength concrete(Super-Con) of over 100MPa with low price materials. First, the binders for Super-Con should be selected by the tests; setting time of paste, flow value and strength of mortar. From the test results, the binders are blended with ordinary portland cement, pulverized portland cement and silica fume. Fundamentally the compressive strength, frost resistance and chloride resistance are investigated.

It is true that aggregate strength is usually not a factor in normal concrete strength because, the aggregate particle is several times stronger than the matrix and the transition zone in concrete. In other words, with most natural aggregates the strength of the aggregate is hardly utilized because the failure is determined by the other two phases. But aggregate characteristics that are significant to concrete technology include porosity, grading or size distribution, moisture absorption, shape and surface texture, crushing strength, elastic modulus, and the type of deleterious substances present. Therefore, in the area of high strength concrete, concrete is much more influenced by properties of aggregate. This experiment is performed to investigate how kinds of aggregare influence on the workability of high strength concrete. In this experiment, four types of aggregate is used, that is crushed river aggregate, crushed stone, recycled aggregate of low strength and recycled aggregate of high strength. In this study, we scrutinize a fundmental study on the workability of high strength concrete according to kinds of aggregate.

Investigations on the behavior of steel fiber reinforced high strength concrete beams subjected to predominant shear are accomplished to determine their diagonal shear strength including ultimate shear strength. The parameters varied were the volume fraction(Vf) of the fibers, shear span depth ratio(a/d). The test result show that diagonal shear strength and ultimate shear strength are increased siginificantly due to crack arrest mechanism. Predictive equations are suggested for evaluating the diagonal cracking strength and ultimate shear strength of the fiber reinforced high strength concrete beams.

Sialon was produced by hot-pressing the mixtures of $Si_3N_4$, AlN and $Y_2O_3$ powders. All fracture tests were performed on a three-point loading system with a 30 mm bending span. Fracture toughness and Vickers hardness of smooth specimen were average 7.05 $MPa{\cdot}m^{0.5}$ and Hv = 1580, respectively. Density of three kinds of specimens, smooth specimen, smooth and healed specimen, smooth with $SiO_2$ colloidal coating and healed specimen, had beyond 99 % of theoretical density. Bending strength of smooth healed specimens had high strength more than 1 GPa. Crack healed specimens recovered as strength as smooth specimen. That is, cracked specimen with $SiO_2$ colloidal coating on cracked part recovered strength by heat treatment, completely. Crack healing of $Si_3N_4$ composite ceramics had contributed glassy $SiO_2$ to strength recovery. Limiting high temperature for bending strength of heat treated smooth specimen for bending strength was about 1273 K.

Currently, many high-rise buildings are built in Korea for land-efficient utilization and vista. In high-rise buildings this tall, the use of high-strength concrete is essential to reduce the cross-section of structure members and secure axial load. However, this high strength concrete is vulnerable to spalling by fire, due to the water vapor pressure caused by the very high temperature in fire. To prevent this, the main method used is to reinforce the concrete with fiber. However, there has been little research on the pumpability of fiber reinforced high strength concrete. For this reason, this study features a performance review based on the properties and pumpability of fiber reinforced high strength concrete. In addition, the parameter of rheology was measured by extracting mortar from the concrete, and friction factor was measured through a 400 m horizontal pipe pumping test using the fiber reinforced high strength concrete. The basic information on fiber reinforced high strength concrete that we obtain through the experiments and review will contribute to the field.

As high-rise buildings with 100 or more stories are being constructed, it is inevitable to use high-performance materials including high-performance concrete. What is most important in high-performance concrete is extremely high strength in order to reduce the section of members in high-rise buildings. During the last several years, there have been active researches on Ultra-high-strength concrete. While these researches have been mostly focused on strength development, however, other accompanying physical properties have not been studied sufficiently. Thus, this study purposed to obtain and analyze data on the physical-mechanical properties of Ultra-high-strength concrete through experiments and to use the results as basic information on required performance of concrete used in high-rise buildings.

Recently, efforts are made to apply 200MPa levels of ultra-high strength concrete to structures exceeding 40MPa.. Ultra-high strength concrete has been steadily researched in Korea as well as abroad, and now it is equipped with 200MPa ultra-high strength concrete mixing technology. Because ultra-high strength concrete has a higher range of compressive strength than ordinary concrete, it is difficult to accurately measure the compressive strength of UHPC concrete with existing compressive strength measuring equipment and can be less reliable. In this study, the compressive strength of the SC80 was measured according to the test method to compare the compressive strength of the SC80 by applying various methods of measurement of compressive strength. The compressive strength test method measured the compressive strength according to the size of the specimen, the grinding method, and the capacity of the UTM equipment.

The purpose of this study is to use paper sludge ash as a material in manufacturing high strength admixture. The reactivity of paper sludge ash as iteself is low for the crystallized non-reactive $SiO_2$, but when the $SiO_2$ was removed, the phase component is mainly composed of glass phase which could react with cement hydrates. In this study, we manufactured high strength admixture using separated paper sludge ash, and examined the strength of mortar, spun concrete with and without this high strength admixture in steam curing. The strength of spun concrete with high strength admixture including paper sludge ash was more higher than that of spun concrete without admixture. As a result, it was found that paper sludge ash could be used to a pozzolanic material in manufacturing high strength admixture.
