The quality certification for recycled aggregate is governed by the Construction Waste Recycling Promotion Act, overseen by the Ministry of Environment. The specific criteria for this certification are detailed in the Regulations on Quality Certification and Management of Recycled Aggregate, a mandate of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport. These regulations were initially enacted on April 10, 2006, and have undergone a total of 16 revisions to date, the most recent being on December 23, 2021. This paper delves into the revision history of these pivotal regulations pertaining to quality certification over the past 17 years, with a particular focus on the latest revision, which encompasses significant changes, including those in follow-up management. This analysis aims to aid stakeholders in the recycled aggregate sector, including 402 certified companies, in comprehensively understanding the government's strategic direction for quality certification and to encourage the recycling of construction waste by bolstering the quality certification process.

The quality control of coarse aggregate among aggregates, which are the main ingredients of concrete, is currently carried out by SPC(Statistical Process Control) method through sampling. We construct a smart factory for manufacturing innovation by changing the quality control of coarse aggregates to inspect the coarse aggregates based on this image by acquired images through the camera instead of the current sieve analysis. First, obtained images were preprocessed, and HED(Hollistically-nested Edge Detection) which is the filter learned by deep learning segment each object. After analyzing each aggregate by image processing the segmentation result, fineness modulus and the aggregate shape rate are determined by analyzing result. The quality of aggregate obtained through the video was examined by calculate fineness modulus and aggregate shape rate and the accuracy of the algorithm was more than 90% accurate compared to that of aggregates through the sieve analysis. Furthermore, the aggregate shape rate could not be examined by conventional methods, but the content of this paper also allowed the measurement of the aggregate shape rate. For the aggregate shape rate, it was verified with the length of models, which showed a difference of ±4.5%. In the case of measuring the length of the aggregate, the algorithm result and actual length of the aggregate showed a ±6% difference. Analyzing the actual three-dimensional data in a two-dimensional video made a difference from the actual data, which requires further research.

The recycled aggregate produced from the waste concrete have the disadvantages in the quality for the natural aggregate. Therefore, in order to reuse the recycled aggregate widely it is a previous subject to improve the quality of recycled aggregate. We deduced the more effective surface treatment method using the colloidal silica solution for quality improvement of recycled aggregate. This study aimed to verify the influences of the deduced surface treatment method and the reinforcement of steel fiber to the properties of concrete. For this object, we inquired into the results of the strengths and the flexural failure tests for the five kinds of concrete specimens.

The recycled aggregates which were produced from the waste concretes have the disadvantages of inferior properties for natural aggregate. Therefore, in order to reuse the recycled aggregate it must be solved to improve the quality of recycled aggregate. In this study, the quality of recycled aggregate was improved by the surface treatment method using the colloidal silica solution. And, in order to examine the possibility of reusing the surface coated recycled aggregate in constructing concrete structures, we studied the mechanical properties and durability of the concrete using the surface coated recycled aggregates and the other concrete.

To solve resource exhaustion and waste management problems caused by mass consumption, there are many efforts to change from resource consumption system to recycling system. Specially, interests about management of construction waste have increased, but efficient recycling system of waste concrete is not established yet. In this study, high quality recycled aggregate processing circuit was developed to recycle waste concrete. From the waste concrete which is a hydrated compound with coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, and cement material, high quality recycled coarse aggregate for concrete making was produced by autogenous milling and heat pretreatment method. After then, refinement process was performed to separate fine aggregate and cement material from waste concrete fines by sink float separation and hindered-settling separation. As a result, high quality recycled aggregate was produced from waste concrete by developed processing circuit.

This study evaluated the physical characteristics and quality of volcanic rocks distributed in the Jeju Island-Ulleung Island area as aggregate resources. The main rocks in the Jeju Island area include conglomerate, volcanic rock, and volcanic rock. Conglomerate is composed of yellow-red or gray heterogeneous sedimentary rock, conglomerate, and encapsulated conglomerate in a state between lavas. Volcanic rocks are classified according to their chemical composition into basalt, trachybasalt, basaltic trachytic andesite, trachytic andesite, and trachyte. By stratigraphy, from bottom to top, Seogwipo Formation, trachyte andesite, trachybasalt (I), basalt (I), trachybasalt (II), basalt (II), trachybasalt (III, IV), trachyte, trachybasalt (V, VI), basalt (III), and trachybasalt (VII, VIII). The bedrock of the Ulleung Island is composed of basalt, trachyte, trachytic basalt, and trachytic andesite, and some phonolite and tuffaceous clastic volcanic sedimentary rock. Aggregate quality evaluation factors of these rocks included soundness, resistance to abrasion, absorption rate, absolute dry density and alkali aggregate reactivity. Most volcanic rock quality results in the study area were found to satisfy aggregate quality standards, and differences in physical properties and quality were observed depending on the area. Resistance to abrasion and absolute dry density have similar distribution ranges, but Ulleung Island showed better soundness and Jeju Island showed better absorption rate. Overall, Jeju Island showed better quality as aggregate. In addition, the alkaline aggregate reactivity test results showed that harmless aggregates existed in both area, but Ulleungdo volcanic rock was found to be more advantageous than Jeju Island volcanic rock. Aggregate quality testing is typically performed simply for each gravel, but even similar rocks can vary depending on their geological origin and mineral composition. Therefore, when evaluating and analyzing aggregate resources, it will be possible to use them more efficiently if the petrological-mineralological research is performed together.
