After the new house symptoms recently, room environment pollution problem of building syndrome and so on is becoming research about ways to solve this being risen. Is taking advantage of nature data by building materials by one of this way, but Friendly Environmental performance examination for structure material is insufficient misgovernment being real condition that put emphasis in ability as most embellishment and in finish. Environmental examination is insufficient misgovernment on factor itself as structure material. Also, being real condition that radon that is responsible for lung cancer occurrence next to smoke in building materials such as concrete and so on is happened, the danger is reported much through mass communications and research paper etc. Therefore, this research measured radon release amount and the carbon dioxide adsorption rate for physical special quality measuring and Friendly Environment Efficiency that follow to 'KS F 4004 Concrete bricks' regulation after manufacture Concrete Bricks utilizing charcoal that is nature material by sand. This study finding carbon dioxide density appeared and displayed effect that charcoal Controls radon release that happen in Concrete Bricks to maximum 74% that decrease to best 95% though decreased the charcoal addition rate increases.

The effects of Cr2O3 content on the properties of direct-bonded MgO-Cr2O3 bricks were investigated in the range of 10 to 30 wt% of Cr2O3. Modulus of rupture of bricks was excellent in about 20 wt% of Cr2O3 content. The corrosion resistance of bricks was improved by increasing Cr2O3 content and was directly pro-portional to the amount of secondary spinels. On the other hand, the spalling resistance of bricks depended on the amount of flux rather than Cr2O3 content.

The effect of additives on properties of unfired Al2O3-C bricks were investigated. The increase of carbon content and the addition of MgO or spinel improved the resistances against spalling and corrosion of unfired Al2O3-C bricks. Also, the oxidation resistance of unfired Al2O3-C brick was increased by adopting complex metals of Al and Si in spite of the increase of carbon content.

Recently, the Ceramic Bricks are getting increased due to demolishing aged buildings. But, disposal of the waste ceramic bricks has been relied on just burying into the ground. Regardless they can be used with recycled thick aggregate. Therefore the range of this study includes the experiment of slump test, compression, strength test and stress-strain analysis to the concrete the recycled thick aggregate with made by ceramic bricks. The reducing method of fine aggregate will be reviewed stand on analysis of this experimental result.

The presens study was aimed to investigate the possibility of use of pozzolanic materials such as blast furnace slag, fly ash, paper sludge ash which are produced from industrial wastes, as construction materials. Experiments were undertaken to investigate the properties of concrete bricks and interlocking blocks made with these industrial by-products. As a result, it was found that the concrete bricks and interlocking blocks made with substitute materials have equivalent strength and quality to those of conventional concrete bricks and interlocking blocks made with only cement. Thus, it could be expected that recycling the industrial wastes can reduce manufacturing costs of the cement as well as prevent environmental pollution by the use of the by-products thrown out as wastes to make secondary products of the concrete.

Clay bricks with lime mortar are recently popular since they are eco- and environment-friendly construction material being capable of air flow and moisture movement. However, there is little study on those of clay brick an lime mortar while relatively many researches on the structural characteristics of concrete bricks with cement mortar are available in Korea. Furthermore, the current Korean Building Code of masonry structures was established on the base of the Foreign Codes which does not reflect Korean masonry construction circumstance, such as material characteristics and section properties. To overcome these problems, experiments of masonry structures constructed using clay bricks with lime mortar were carried out to evaluate their structural characteristics such as, prism compressive strength, adhesive strength and diagonal tensile(shear) strength. Also this research compares the mechanical characteristics between clay bricks with lime mortar and concrete bricks with cement mortar to provide information that will be used for revisions of the domestic standards for masonry structures. As masonry structures constructed with clay bricks and lime mortar show different aspects over the ones constructed with concrete bricks and cement mortar, we suggest estimation equation of prism compressive strength and diagonal tensile strength on masonry structures constructed with clay bricks and lime mortar.

The waste garnet powder as a raw material for clay bricks was studied its recycling. The physical strength of clay bricks are closely dependent both on the contents of $SiO_2$, $Al_2$$O_3$, and $Fe_2$$O_3$in clay and on the viscosity of it. Although the garnet power has very high contents of $SiO_2$, $Al_2$$O_3$, and $Fe_2$$O_3$, it could not substituted to clay because of its low viscosity. Therefore the substitution of sand with waste garnet powder was considered to influence positively on the strength of clay bricks .Mixing ratios of {clay-sand}, {sand-garnet powder}, and {clay-sand-garnet powder} based on weight were controlled in the production of clay bricks. The properties of clay bricks such as compression strength, moisture absorption, shrinkage, and specific gravity has been evaluated. It was shown that the optimal mixing combination was found to be { clay(50%)-sand(30%)-garnet powder(20%)} as a weight basis. The present study indicated possibilities to produce commercially clay bricks with the waste garnet powder. An economical benefit will be produced in viable in view of recycling waste garnet powder.

Recent advances in medical imaging technologies have enabled the high-resolution data acquisition. Therefore visualization of such large data set on standard graphics hardware became a popular research theme. Among many visualization techniques, we focused on bricking method which divided the entire volume into smaller bricks and rendered them in order. Since it switches bet\W8n bricks on main memory and bricks on GPU memory on the fly, to achieve better performance, the number of these memory swapping conditions has to be minimized. And, because the original bricking algorithm was designed for regular volume data such as CT and MR, when applying the algorithm to ultrasound volume data which is based on the toroidal coordinate space, it revealed some performance degradation. In some areas near bricks' boundaries, an orthogonal viewing ray intersects the single brick twice, and it consequently makes a single brick memory to be uploaded onto GPU twice in a single frame. To avoid this redundancy, we divided the volume into bricks allowing overlapping between the bricks. In this paper, we suggest the formula to determine an appropriate size of these shared area between the bricks. Using our formula, we could minimize the memory bandwidth. and, at the same time, we could achieve better rendering performance.

Microstructure and chemical analysis of sintered bricks containing recycled wastes were investigated by SEM and EDS. The recycled wastes for which substitute ceramic raw materials were EAF (electric arc furnace) dust, fly ash and stone ash. Yellowish and brownish regions on the surface and brownish and blackish regions in the inside of bricks were observed. Main component of yellowish region on the surface turned out to be Zn. No chemical difference between the black-core region and brownish matrix. Mullite crystallites of 1 fm size were distributed in the inside of bricks and enclosed by glass phases. It seems that alumine-silicate mixtures of kaolin and fly ash were transformed to mullite crystallites during the sintering. Relatively large pores ot several ten fm size were observed in the black-core region in the inside of bricks. The main components of the inside of brick were Al and Si. The minor components were C, Na, Mg, K, Ca, and Fe. Particularly, the precipitates of Fe-rich crystallites were observed in the amorphous matrix. These precipitates were formed due to the local reduction atmosphere in the inside of bricks. Zn-rich covers were found on the surface of bricks because Zn diffused from the inside of bricks to the surface under the reduction atmosphere.
