An amount of electric arc furnace slag, by-products generated in iron manufacture, is being increased. Therefore, it is required to recycle the electric arc furnace slag. Currently, it is possible to use the electric arc furnace slag as the aggregates of the concrete through the insurance of volume stability but not in the past because of the expansibility of f-CaO and f-MgO. In this study, simple beam tests via Ichinose method were performed to estimate the bond properties of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using the electric arc furnace slag. The results of the test showed that the showed that specimens using the electric arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregates have similar or more bond capacity relative to the specimen of natural aggregates. Especially, bond capacity of the specimens using the slag aggregates was almost one and a half times higher than a specimen using natural aggregates.

This research was to investigate the invasion and diffusion properties of chloride ion on the concrete containing mineral admixtures by the electrically accelerated test. Mineral admixtures selected in mixes were fly-ash, ground granulated blast-furnace slag, silica fume, and meta-kaolin with 3 degrees of replacement ratios. Tang and Nilsson's test method was used to estimate chloride diffusion coefficients of that mixes. As a result, the total current passing charge and the diffusion coefficient of chloride ion were reduced with the use of mineral admixtures and the increase of replacement ratios. In addition, compressive strength was related with diffusion coefficient of chloride ion. Diffusion coefficients of concrete mixed with ground granulated blast-furnace slag showed relatively low value under the range of compressive strength of 400㎏f/㎠.

Shotcrete needs the enough durability without deterioration for life time. But shotcrete is being deteriorated according to aging like concrete by internal causes whithin itself and by external causes which can be physical, chemical, or mechanical. Durable shotcrete can be made by incresing the cement content, adding chemical and mineral admixtures and so on. So, in this study, chloride ion penetration test, freeze and thaw test, neutralization test were conducted to examine the durability characteristice of shotcrete with mineral admixtures such as silica fume, blast-furnace slag and fly ash. These results indicate that shotcrete with silica fume is durable. Therefore, the present study provides a firm base to make high performance shtcrete.

An experimental study is carried out to estimate the way of applying the granulated blast furnace slag[GBFS] to the lean concrete base of concrete pavement. According to the test results, this application seems promising. For this application, mixing percent of GBFS ranging from 30 to 50 is recommendable at this stage. And performance of base mixed with GBFS is greatly affected by the curing and placing condition. As long as all requirements for application of GBFS to the base is satisfied, better performance is expected.

This study is about the compensation of early age strength on mortar and concrete admixed with blast-furnace slag powder. For study, we have used fine powder of gypsum and kiln dust from cement factory. According to the test results, we have obtained proper mixing ratio of slag powder, gypsum and kiln dust for the compensation of early age strength on mortar and concrete property.

An experimental study is carried out to estimate the way of applying the granulated blast furnace slag[GBFS] to the lean concrete subbase of concrete pavement. According to the test results, this application seems promising. For this application, mixing percent of GBFS ranging from 30 to 45 is recommendable at this stage. Expected benefits using GGBFS in the field of concrete pavement include reduced shrinkage crack, reduced pavement thickness, and extended service life.

This paper describes the development of a small lens molding system for manufacturing the small lens like lens of a cellular phone, a small digital camera and so on. In order to manufacture a small lens, firstly, the raw material for lens with spherical shape should be manufactured by processing a glass, secondly, the mold inserted the raw material for lens should be heated till its molding temperature in the electric furnace, finally, the small lens is manufactured by applying the force using pressuring control system. In this paper, the small lens molding system with the function of force control and velocity control was developed. It is composed of a electric furnace and its temperature control system, a pressuring control system, a body, and so on. The temperature characteristic test of the electric furnace, and the force and velocity characteristic test of the pressuring control system were carried out. It was confirmed that the developed system had good functions for manufacturing a small lens.

Increased energy costs have placed demands for improved combustion efficiency, high equipment availability, low maintenance and safe operation. Furthermore low NO$_x\$ modification, installed due to strict environmental legislation, requires very careful combustion management. The flame monitoring system has been developed specially to satisfy these requirements. We aimed at gaining the relationship between the burner flame image and emissions such as NO$_x$ and unburned carbon in furnace by utilizing the image processing method. For the first step of development, its possibility test was undertaken with bench furnace. The test proceeded to the second step with pilot furnace and the system was observed to be effective for evaluating the combustion conditions. By using this technology, it is possible to perform continuous monitoring of the combustion conditions and instant detection of individual changes for each burner to prevent future loss of ignition. This may contribute to the saving of burner adjusting times for the changes of loads and fuels and to the reduction of the slagging as well.
