The fundamental properties of High Performance Concrete(HPC) were studied using high flowable portland cement which was developed at the Sangyong Cement Ind. Co.,Ltd. The results obtained are as follows. (1)The slump of HPC using high flowable portland cement maintains for 120min. (2)Ultra high strength greater than 800kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ can be designed without using silica fume and other additives. (3)The value of drying shrinkage and adiabatic temperature rise of HPC are less than those of concrete made with OPC.

Durability characteristics of controlled low strength material(flowable fill) with high volume fly ash content was examined. The mix proportions used for flowable fill are selected to obtain low-strength material in the 10 to 15kgf/㎥ range. The optimized flowable fill was consisted of 60kgf/㎥ cement content, 280kgf/㎥ fly ash content, 1400kgf/㎥sand content, and 320kgf/㎥water content. Subsequently, durability tests including permeability warm water immersion, repeated wetting & drying, freezing & thawing for high volume fly ash-flowable fill are conducted The test results indicated that flowable fill has has acceptable durability characteristics.

This study is performed to evaluate flowability of high flowable concrete using ordinary portland cement, crushed coarse aggregate, crushed sand, sea sand, fly ash, lime powder and superplasticizer. The slump flow and air content are increased with increasing the content of lime powder. But, the O-type funneling time and Box-type passing are decreased with increasing the content of lime powder. The slump flow, air content, O-type funneling time, Box-type passing and L-type filling of target compressive strength 21-27 MPa and 35-42 MPa at curing age 28 days are 47-50 cm and 56-60 cm, 4.2-5.5% and 4.0-5.7%, 8-12s and 5-10s, 4.3-5.0 cm and 3.4-5.0 cm, and excellent, respectively. These concrete can be used for high flowable concrete.

High flowable concrete was first developed in 1988 to achieve durable concrete structures. High flowable concrete can improve workability sharply reason why the concrete has properties of resistance to segregation, filling ability, passing ability without compacting. Therefore, as we apply a high flowable concrete to a large dimensional tunnel which constructed in special environment, we can get workability, strength and durability required. Tunnel lining concrete with a large dimension has to use necessarily fly ash and slag for the properties of high flowability and watertight. We can expect improvement of workability and durability, mitigation of hydration, reducing shrinkage, enhancement of watertight by using cementitious materials. This paper proposes investigations for establishing a mix-design method and high flowability-strength testing methods have been carried out from the viewpoint of making a standard concrete tunnel lining with large dimension a standard.

The purpose of this study was to examine the durability characteristics of controlled low strength material(flowable fill) with high volume fly ash content. Flowable fill refer to self-compacted, cementitious material used primarily as a backfill in lieu of compacted fill. The two primary advantages of flowable fill over traditional methods are its ease of placement and the elimination of settlement. Therefore, in difficult compaction areas or areas where settlement is a concern, flowable fill should be considered. The fly ash used in this study met the requirements of KS L 5405 and ASTM C 618 for Class F material. The mix proportions used for flowable fill are selected to obtain low-strength materials in the 10 to 15kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ range. The optimized flowable fill was consisted of 60kg f/$\textrm{m}^3$ cement content, 280kgf/$\textrm{m}^3$ fly ash content, 1400kgf/$\textrm{m}^3$ sand content, and 320kgf/$\textrm{m}^3$ water content. Subsequently, durability tests including permeability, warm water immersion, repeated wetting & drying, freezing & thawing for high volume fly ash-flowable fill are conducted. The results indicated that flowable fill has acceptable durability characteristics.

This paper presents the experimental study on hardening process of high-strength and high-flowable concrete. The experiments were performed to investigate any unfavorable construction situations since the actual concrete placement has been scheduled in cold weather period, so that the high quality concrete construction is convinced to be successfully carried out. The tests were conducted using 600nm and 1000nm height of steel tube to simulate the practical concrete filled steel tube columns according to the following variables as: the categories of chemical admixtures, curing temperatures and curing schemes. The test results were analyzed in terms of hardening speed, internal heat of hydration and history of strength gain. This paper emphasizes the importance of curing schemes on durability and the use of hardening accelerators on strength gain.

This paper presents a series of tests to produce the high quality concrete to be filled inside the steel tube columns. This concrete filled steel tube system requires not only the high strength, but also the high flowable concrete. Laboratory test has been performed to clarify the material characteristics and to produce the optimal mix design proportion. Full-scale site mock-up test has been then carried out to simulate the actual construction conditions including the production of concrete at the remicon batch plant, transportation to the construction site, proper workability and man-power required.

Due to high increase of labor charge and necessarity of better quality control on concrete, various studies have been carried out to improve a flowability of concrete without the use of mechanical vibrator. As a result of enthusiastic study, one can closely access to the development of high flowable concrete in a laboratorial view. Application to practical field, however, is still far as long as a regulation for construction is not properly specified. Based on the idea that lateral pressure measured from high flowable concrete will be larger than those from general typed concrete, we read a series of lateral pressure from mechanical pressure plate and compared those with the values calculated form specified formula.

This study is performed to examine the engineering properties of polyprofilene fiber reinforced high flowable concrete. For the estimation of the flow ability and filling ability, the slump flow, box height difference and L-shape filling appearence are measured and compared. The test result shows that the slump flow and L-shape filling appearence is decreased with increase containing polyprofilene fiber and box height difference is increased with increase containing polyprofilene fiber. Also, compressive strength is decreased with increase containing polyprofilene fiber.
