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.

The utilization of waste and industrial byproduct materials, such as blast furnace slag, shales, poor coal and anthracite briquet ash, were investigated as a source of calcareous or argillaceous material in the manufacture of Portland cement. As a slag is similar to cement in chemical compoment and contains about 40∼50% of CaO, it's utilization in cement manufacture should be suitable. The burnability was increased and the heat of clinker formation was decreased by using slag. Some consideration should betaken in the use of large quantity because of sticking in suspension preheater kiln. Suitable quantities of colliery shales and poor coal should be useable in cement manufacture as a argillaceous materials and also its combustible materials should be utilized in cement manufacture. Anthracite briquet ash is also usable as a argillaceous source and it gives good burnability.

For the development of multi-functional materials which has water reducing power, air entraining power and waterproofing power as well as blending additive in cement mortar the coal ash was modified with asphalt-stearic acid or asphalt-boiled oil mixtures by mechanical treatment. And the physical properties of cement mortar blended with modified coal ashes were compared with those of the water-tightness-cement mortar and the ordinary-portland-cement mortar added with AE.water reducing agent. The mortar of coalash-blend-cement modified with asphalt-stearic mixture was increased acid about 20% in initial strengths and decreased about 20% in water absorption ratio than those of ordinary coalash-blend-cement. The mortar of coalash-blend-cement modified with asphalt-bolied oil mixture was similar to the cement mortar added with AE.water reducing agent in water reduction ratio, air entraining conents and the initial strengths, also was similar to the water-tightness-cement mortar in water absorption and water permeability ratios.

The crystallization of melts with similar composition of Portland cement liquid containing 0-5% $K_2O$ was studied by differential thermal and isothermal reaction. The devitrification of melts was occured in stages, the recognizable amount of CaO was appered at the first step, then proto-C3A was crystallized. The latter showed to occur in both cubic C3A and Ca-ferrite crystallization. Batches lost remarkable amounts of $K_2O$ as a result of volatilization during melting and the solubility of $K_2O$ in the melts was unstable.

The main object of this study is to examine the basic properties of fresh concrete as well as hardened concrete using several types of cement such as ordinary portland cement, sulphate resisting portland cement, blast furnace slag cement, ternary blended cement. In addition, effects of each cement on the durability including drying shrinkage, freeze-thawing resistance, resistance of chloride ion penetration, carbonation of concrete were investigated. As the results of this study, it was proved that most of the properties of concrete using each cement were similar, but there were some differences in bleeding, setting time, resistance of chloride ion penetration and carbonation.

The aim of this study is to develop High Performance Concrete, which can fill in every corner of forms without using any vibrators. In order to place concrete into reinforced members, concrete should have segregation resistance and high flowability. In this study, the binder of concrete, such as Ordinary Portland Cement, fly ash, and blast furnace slag, cement were mixed with the addition of superplasticizers and tested their flowability and segregation resistance using slump flow tester and L type flow tester. As a results, High Performance Concrete can be made using Portland blast furnace slag cement along with superplasticizers but the slump-loss of concrete is so large that measure should be made.

Carbonation is a natural ageing process for cement. This study focuses on how the carbonation rate varies with selected hydration times and atmospheric conditions during the early stages of reacting dried cement paste. Diffuse reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy is shown to be a suitable technique to monitor the formation of carbonates in cement. Combined with a previously developed freeze drying technique, carbonation can be studied at specific hydration stages. In ambient air both calcium hydroxide and calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) in cement are carbonated. Increased hydration time enhances the carbon dioxide uptake, which indicates that the calcium in the hydration products reacts more easily than the calcium in the clinker phase. In a humid $CO_2$ atmosphere, the carbonation process is so pronounced that it decomposes C-S-H into calcium carbonate and silica. In a moist $N_2$ atmosphere no carbonation occurs, but the sulfate chemistry of the cement seems to be affected due to the formation of ettringite.

The effects of vehicles and pavement surface types on noise have been investigated at the Korea Expressway Corporation's Test Road along the southbound side of the Jungbu Inland Expressway, South Korea. The study was conducted in 2005 and 2006 through field measurements at nine surface sections of asphalt concrete and Portland cement concrete pavements using eleven vehicles. For the road noise analysis, the sound power levels (PWLs) of combined noise (e.g., tire/pavement interaction noise and power-train noise together) and tire/pavement interaction noise using various vehicles were calculated based on the novel close proximity (NCPX) and pass-by methods. Then, the characteristics of the PWLs were evaluated according to surface type, vehicle type, and vehicle speed. The results show that the PWLs of vehicles are diversely affected by vehicle speed and the condition of the road surface.

경화촉진제로서 염화칼슘, 경화억제제로서 수크로오즈를 처리한 포트렌트시멘트의 양생효과를 전자현미경에 의해 관찰한 결과, 경화억제제를 처리한 시멘트는 결정을 이루지 못하고 융기상태로 남아있고, 경화촉진제를 처리한 시멘트는 겔형으로 변한후 육각형의 결정을 이루는 것이 관찰되었다. 또한 시멘트-목재 복합체의 양생은 좀 다른 양상을 보이고있어 경화제가 처리된 WCC는 포플러 스리버 표면에서 작은 융기가 겔상의 표면에 많이 관찰되나 무처리는 거의 일정한 모양의 입자가 관찰되어 시멘트 경화촉진제와 억제제의 효과를 구명하였다.

Previous research has been conducted on an ultrasonic wave reflection method that utilizes a steel plate embedded in the concrete to measure the reflection loss of shear waves at the steel-concrete interface. The reflection loss has been shown to have a linear relationship to compressive strength at early ages. The presented investigations continue this research by examining the fundamental relationship between the reflection loss, measured with shear waves, and the hydration kinetics of Portland cement mortar, represented by dynamic elastic moduli, compressive strength and degree of hydration. Dynamic elastic moduli are measured by fundamental resonant frequency and degree of hydration is determined by thermogravimetric analysis. The water/cement ratio was varied for the tested mixture compositions. The results presented herein show that compressive strength, dynamic shear modulus and degree of hydration have a linear relationship to the reflection loss for the tested mortars at early ages.
