In this study, the stability and EMP shielding performance of metal-based industrial by-products aggregates with excellent conductivity and easy procurement to be used as concrete aggregates for EMP shielding are evaluated. The industrial by-products are electronic-arc-furnace oxidizing slag, copper smelting slag, and ferro-moldibdenum. The composition analysis of aggregates and aggregate stability are evaluated. As a result of the experiment, ferro-moldibdenum is shown to have l ow stability as an aggregate due to its high Free-CaO. The remaining aggregates are evaluated to be safe to use as aggregates for concrete. In addition, industrial by-products aggreagate-specimens excluding ferro-moldibdenum are shown higher compressive strength than the plain specimen. The recycle aggregates, electronic-arc-furnace oxidizing slag and copper smelting slag, are shown excellent EMP shielding performance, the EMP shielding performance is expected to increase if the average particle diameter of the aggregate is small or evenly distributed.

This study is to investigate experimentally the engineering characteristics of cement mortar according to the replacement method and contents of recycled aggregate powder (RP) by collecting the recycled aggregate powder with the maximum size of below 0.08 mm and 0.15 mm. then, the results of the study can be summarized as follows. The flow of flesh mortar represented a trend in decreasing while the recycled aggregate powder was substituted as it is compared with that of plain. In addition, in case of correlation between tests, it appeared that the correlation between flow and ring flow is big. In the case of the characteristics of hardened mortar, the strength showed more improvements as the RP was substituted to aggregate than the case, which is substituted to aggregate. In addition, it was verified that the results in which the RP was substituted to aggregate by 5% represented similar values to that of the plain according to the passage of age.

A recycled aggregate contains impurities that affect negative effects on physical properties of concrete. Therefore, a test method for examining impurities content in recycled aggregate is necessary before use of recycled aggregate. In this study, the test method by visual examination for separating impurities in recycled fine and coarse aggregates was developed. The results of the test are as follow: 1. The current KS F 2576 was necessary for comprehensive revision including types of tested recycled aggregate, definition of terminology, quantity of sample, and test method. 2. Visual examination is appropriate for larger than impurity panicle size of 1.2mm, and the larger panicle size the shorter time was required. 3. For the impurity content test by visual examination, the easiness and accuracy of the test can be obtained from the condition of sample weight of 30 grams with particle size of 2.5mm to 5mm for recycled fine aggregate and the condition of sample weight of 1 kilogram with panicle size of larger than 5mm for recycled coarse aggregate.

This study examined concrete characteristics depending on the replacement ratio of recycled fine aggregates, which suits the KS F 2573 concrete recycled aggregate standard. As physical properties, slump, air content, changes in the elapse of time and compressive strength were studied in order to provide basic data for activation of recycled fine aggregate recycling. As a result of experimenting recycled fine aggregate concrete, the increase in the replacement ratio of recycled aggregates led to the increase in slump and air content. Also, when the replacement ratio of recycled fine aggregates was 30%, it was judged that there was no problem with constructability. When the replacement ratio was 30%, recycled fine aggregate concrete had a similar tendency to natural aggregate concrete at a compressive strength of 24MPa. When the replacement ratio was 30%, at a target strength of 24MPa, recycled fine aggregate concrete had the same physical characteristics as natural aggregate concrete. This means that a replacement ratio of 30% is appropriate for replacement of recycled fine aggregates. In future, there will be a need to improve the quality of recycled fine aggregates for activating the use of recycled fine aggregates and further research will have to evaluate physical properties of recycled fine aggregate concrete using improved recycled fine aggregates.

Steel slag is being recycled into industrial by-products for civil generated inevitably in the seasonal course, road and cement raw materials. However, the field of recycling most of the bottom portion is concentrated in the areas that are required to take advantage of the situation in various fields taking advantage of the steel slag. But various studies to take advantage of the steel slag as aggregate for concrete made for limiting slag was a situation that most of the studies are incomplete research on the suitability of as aggregate for concrete practical relates to an expandable suppressed. In this study, the separation of the slag aggregate according to the production methods to assess the feasibility aggregate for concrete aggregates, including through Steel making slag, a total of seven kinds of steel slag aggregate. Studies show that ordinary concrete, steel slag aggregate for aggregate and on the equally to take advantage of grading, chloride content standards such as to what is lacking, although appropriate aggregate of concrete include the deployment of only in special sectors through the combination was assessed to have a very high.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of CFBC artificial fine aggregate as a substitute for natural aggregate used in dry mortar. The basic performance of the flow, compressive strength and dry shrinkage of the dry mortar was evaluated. Four types of test dry mortar specimens using natural aggregate without expansion admixture, a specimen with modified CaO expansion admixture and natural aggregate, a specimen with modified CaO expansion admixture and CFBC artificial fine aggregate, and a specimen using CFBC artificial fine aggregate without modified CaO expansion admixture were evaluated respectively. As a result of evaluation of drying shrinkage performance at 20th day of age, the dry shrinkage performance of the specimen using modified CaO expansion admixture was found to be the highest at $250{\times}10^{-6}$. On the other hand, the specimen containing the modified CaO expansion admixture with CFBC artificial aggregate exhibited a shrinkage of $410{\times}10^{-6}$, and the drying shrinkage of specimen using natural fine aggregate without expansion admixture was $450{\times}10^{-6}$. When the modified CaO expansion material was used, and exhibited performance equal to or higher than that of the shrinkage-drying property.

Though the wet bottom ash has been used as a type of lightweight aggregate, dry bottom ash, new type bottom ash from coal combustion power plant, has scarcely researched. It is excellent lightweight aggregate in the view point of construction material. This study is performed to check the applicability of dry bottom ash as a fine aggregate in lightweight aggregate concrete, by analyzing various properties of fresh and hardened concrete. We get results that the slump of concrete is within the target range at less than 75% replacement rate of dry bottom ash, the air content is not affected by the replacement rate of dry bottom ash, the bleeding capacity is less than $0.025cm^3/cm^2$ at 75% under of the replacement rate of dry bottom ash, and the compressive strength of concrete show 90% or more comparing the base mix while initial strength development is a little low. Oven dry unit weight of concrete is reduced by 8.9% when replaced 100% dry bottom ash, and dry shrinkage tends to decrease depending on increase of replacement rate of dry bottom ash. Modulus of elasticity of concrete shows no decease at 50% over of the replacement rate of dry bottom ash, while modulus of elasticity of concrete decreases when the replacement rate increases further. The dry bottom ash, when used as a fine aggregate in lightweight concrete, can be used effectively without any deterioration in quality.

Blast furnace slag, a by-product of the steel industry, is mostly recycled as concrete admixture, but electric arc furnace slag has not been recycled to date. In particular, since electric arc furnace slag partially contains free lime (free-CaO) in the discharge, it is necessary to review this in order to recycle f or construction materials. Recently an atomizing process which is a method of rapidly cooling electric arc furnace slag has been developed and applied. Therefore, in order to use the fine aggregate of oxidized slag from electric furnace restored by this method as an aggregate for concrete, physical damage and chemical reviewing are required. In this study, a physical and chemical review was conducted on the fine aggregate of Electric Arc Furnace Oxidizing Slag (EFOS) as a by-product of the steel manufacturing process with atomizing process. In this experimental study, EFOS was experimentally examined about whether it can be used as concrete fine aggregate. Also, we intend to provide basic data for the future use of the EFOS fine aggregate. As a result of the experimental study, it was found that the fine aggregate of the EFOS satisfied the quality standards of the fine aggregate for concrete in most items specified by Korean Standard.

Given a fixed production process and facility capacity, the ability to respond to market fluctuations in terms of changes in production, work force, and inventory is the major task of production management. The costs involved are primarily payroll (regular and overtime), inventory carrying, and hiring and firing. The magnitude of these costs is usually a significant portion of the operating costs of the firm and consequently a small percentage saving due to astute aggregate scheduling can mean substantial absolute saving. At least three demonstrably optimal techniques have been developed for solving this aggregate scheduling problem. These three optimal are apparently LDR, PPP, and SDR. By combining these three different approaches, another optimal solution was obtained by me. I call this CDR (Combined Decision Rule). This approach appears to be useful. This approach may be generalizable to aggregate scheduling involving a short term resources.
