The purpose of this study is to increase the use of Hwangto and examine the strength according to what it is compounded with. Hwangto-concrete containing Hwanto without cement nor organic chemical products were compared to the traditional cement concrete through some durability experiments. We expect to gain more knowledge on the potentials of Hwangto-concrete as an architectural source. 1) As Hwangto binder amount rises, the value of slump increases too. The reason is that the increase of the quantity of cement causes the increase of the amount of material and the decrease of the amount of aggregate. 2) When the mixed component into Hwangto-concrete remains at 2%, the compress strength is generally dispersed high along the per unit fission, in case the amount of which is at $400(g/m^3)$. The highest compress strength is 39MPa. It means that it can be applied to common structures and we need to conduct a basic property test to ensure the strength and fluidness. 3) Hwangto-concrete is expected to be highly used in the ocean structure and chemical industry because it has better resistance to sulfuric acid and to hydrochloric acid than the cement-concrete has. The result of this study is as follows. It is expected that Hwangto-concrete will be widely applied and further research on its durability and tests for its basic substantial characteristics based on future component added to it.

In this thesis presents the application to the field of Hwangto-used concrete highlighted as an eco-friendly material and performs an experiment in the aspect of construction and quality on the construction for all parts of buildings, rather than for some parts of buildings as shown from existing application and got the conclusion as followings. 1) It was turned out that Hwangto concrete showed lower hydrated heat and arid contraction comparing to those of cement concrete. And this phenomenon is judged to appear high when applied to mass building and huge span structures. 2) The construction of Hwangto concrete is judged to be possible in applying to constructions since the mechanical construction seems to be possible by using pump car and ready-mixed concrete which are used at the practical sites at the moment. 3) The pockmarks appearing on the exposure surface were about 2% of total area. This has great cohesion by Hwangto concrete but is judged that it will be improved through enough vibration stamping. Through the experiments of quality and construction of Hwangto concrete as environment-friendly construction materials, it is possible to judge modernized application of Hwangto concrete. It is in need of more studies about economical efficiency, structural stability, design application, etc. afterwards.

In this study, ultrasonic pulse velocity is compared on non-sintered hwangto concrete(NHTC) and normal concrete(NC) at ages. Strength of specimens set up 30MPa. Cement is replaced with 15 and 30% non-sintered hwangto. UPV is tested at 1, 3, 7, 28, 56, 91 days. As a result, UPV increases as the age and strength increase, but decreases as the non-sintered hwangto replacement increases. Although ultrasonic pulse velocity of NHTC was 72% lower than NC, after that, difference tends to decrease

In this study, ultrasonic pulse velocity was analyzed to evaluate the high-temperature mechanical properties of concrete mixed with non-sintered hwangto. The W/B of the specimens was set at 0.41, the percentage of non-sintered hwangto admixture was set at two levels of 15,30%. The target temperature of the specimen is set to 6 levels of 20, 100, 200, 300, 500, 700 ℃, and the heating rate is set to 1℃/min. The result showed that the amount of non-sintered hwangto incorporated into the concrete tends to results in lower compressive strength. Ultrasonic pulse velocity showed similar trends, but differed in some areas.

In this study, the compressive strength development was analyzed at early ages of concrete specimens admixed with non-sintered hwangto to reduce the CO₂ emissions generated during cement production. The W/B of the specimens was set at 0.41, the percentage of non-sintered hwangto admixture was set at three levels of 15, 30, and 45%, and the compressive strength were measured at 1, 3, 7, and 28 days. The results showed that the compressive strength decreases as the percentage of non-sintered hwangto increases, but the strength development rate increases, and the NHTC41-15 test specimen developed a compressive strength close to NC41 at 28 days.

In this study, the mechanical properties of high-strength concrete according to the substitution rate of NSH(Non-sintered Hwangto) as an alternative material for cement were measured and evaluated. Through UPV(Ultrasonic pulse velocity) analysis, the compressive strength prediction equation was proposed, and the substitution rate of NSH was set at 15 % and 30 %. The evaluation items were compressive strength and UPV, and the curing period was set to 24 hours. In compressive strength and UPV, as the NSH substitution rate increased, lower strength and lower UPV were shown. In addition, the correlation number(R² ) between compressive strength and UPV was 0.99 for NC(Normal Concrete), 0.97 for NSHC(Non-sintered Hwangto Concrete)33-15, and 0.94 for NSHC33-30.

In this study, the mechanical properties of concrete mixed with non-sintered hwangto(NHT) as an alternate material for cement were evaluated, and the compressive strength prediction equation of concrete based on ultrasonic pulse velocity analysis was proposed. Cement replacement rates for mixed NHT were set to 0, 15, and 30%, and design compressive strength was set to 30 and 45MPa to evaluate the effect on the amount of cement and NHT powder. The mechanical properties items analyzed were compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and elastic modulus, and were measured on days 1, 3, 7, and 28. As the replacement rate of NHT increased, the mechanical properties tended to decrease. In addition, as a result of analyzing the correlation between compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity, the correlation coefficient(R²) showed a high relationship(R²=0.95) on concrete mixed with NHT.

Recently, interest in reducing cement has been growing. Hwangto, an eco-friendly material, has advantages such as air purification effect and humidity control, but when used, accidents such as form collapse may occur due to low strength and reduced durability. In order to quantitatively evaluate the timing of mold demolding, we would like to evaluate the timing of mold demolding through correlation with compressive strength using ultrasonic pulse velocity. As a result, the time at which 5 MPa is developed is after 20 hours for the test specimen of W/B 41 , in the case of W/B 33, NC33 and HTC33-15 were equally expressed at 12 hours, and HTC33-30 was expressed at 16 hours.

This study presents the testing of 15 hwangtoh-based cementless concrete mixes to explore the significance and limitations of the development of eco-friendly concrete without carbon dioxide emissions while maintaining various beneficial effects. Hwangtoh, which is a kind of kaolin, was incorporated with inorganic materials, such as calcium hydroxide, to produce a cement-less binder. The main variables investigated were the water-to-binder ratio and fine aggregate-to-total aggregate ratio to ascertain the reliable mixing design of hwangtoh-based cementless concrete. The variation of slump with elapsed time was recorded in fresh concrete specimens. Mechanical properties of hardened concrete were also measured: including compressive strength gain, splitting tensile strength, moduli of rupture and elasticity, stress-strain relationship, and bond resistance. In addition, mechanical properties of hwangtoh-based cement-less concrete were compared with those of ordinary portland cement (OPC) concrete and predictions obtained from the design equations specified in ACI 318-05 and CEB-FIP for OPC concrete, wherever possible. Test results show that the mechanical properties of hwangtoh-based concrete were significantly influenced by the water-to-binder ratio and to less extend by fine aggregate-to-total aggregate ratio. The moduli of rupture and elasticity of hwangtoh-based concrete were generally lower than those of OPC concrete. In addition, the stress-strain and bond stress-slip relationships measured from hwangtoh-based concrete showed little agreement with the design model specified in CEB-FIP. However, the measured moduli of rupture and elasticity, and bond strength were higher than those given in ACI 318-05 and CEB-FIP. Overall, the test results suggest that the hwangtoh-based concrete shows highly effective performance and great potential as an environmental-friendly building material.
