The purpose of this experimental research is to produce the super-workable concrete using ordinary portland cement, blast-furnace slag lowder, and fly ash respectively, and investigate mechanical properties of super-workable concrete. For this purpose, after production of super-workable concrete for different unit weights of binder and percentages of fine aggregate, optimum mixing proportion of them was determined, and then mechanical properties of super-workable concrete such as static modulud of elasticity as well as compressive, tensile and flexural strength were tested and analyzed. Also, the mechanical performances of super-workable concrete were compared with those of high-strength concrete has an excellent mobility, compactability and segregation-resistance, but the strength of super-workable concrete is somewhat lower than that of high-strength concrete with equal mixing proportions of concrete.

This study is about physical properties of concrete with changing displacement ratio of calcium sulfa aluminates(CSA) type admixture. Firstly, test shows that as displacement ratio of CSA increases and setting properties changes, fluidity and air contents decreases. In water to binder ratio 35$\%$ and 45$\%$, concrete using the cement replacing CSA 4$\%$ by volume shows that bleeding decreases 94.7$\%$ and 74.3$\%$ respectively, compared with plain concrete. In addition, setting time was promoted around 3 to 6 hour and 1 to 4 hour respectively. For harden concrete, increase of displacement ratio caused tendency of higher compressive strength as OPC has at early age. Replacing higher CSA admixture led to reduce of drying shrinkage.

Epoxy-mortar composites have been wildly used as finishing and repairing materials in the construction because of their excellent properties. Conventional epoxy-mortars and concretes have an inferior applicability and cost performance ratio due to the two component mixing of the epoxy resin and hardener. In this study, we examined the engineering effect of compressive strength and flexible strength according to the various epoxy-hardener in underwater and humidity environment, and evaluated the hardener types and physical effect of Epoxy mortar using cement binder in underwater and air condition. In this study, it was clarified that the engineering properties of repairing epoxy-motars were effected by the type of hardener.

The concretes cast in the sea water would be likely to be rich mix and mass concrete. Therefore it is important to check out the hydration heat of concrete and to reduce it to prevent the concrete from processing the temperature crack. Recently the antiwashout agent is used on underwater concrete for preventing from the segregation of concrete in the water. The experimental studies were done for the combined cement replaced by fly ash 30%unit weight of binder to study on the characteristics of hydration heat of antiwashout underwater concrete, and its characteristic was discussed by comparing on cast in sea water with anther one in air. The present paper showed that the hydration heat concrete replaced by 30%of fly ash was more significantly reduced than the normal concrete. The hydration heat of antiwashout underwater concrete was highter than that of normal concrete, but it was reduced lower than the normal concrete by adding fly ash.

Because reinforced concrete structures were being high more and more in recent year, concrete was being demanded high performance of high strength and high fluidity. But various characteristics must be confirmed besides guarantee of demand strength in ultra-high strength concrete. In ultra-high strength concrete, autogenous shrinkage and drying shrinkage grow big because of a low water cement ratio and much quantity of binder. So dangerousness of crack generation grow big in early ages. And ultra-high strength concrete is influenced by use materials more than ordinary strength concrete. In this study we were examined mix design, atuogenous shrinkage and pumpability of ultra-high strength concrete to apply on the ground.

The discharge of fly ash that is produced by coal-fired electric power plants is rapidly increasing in Korea. The utilization of fly ash in the raw materials would contribute to the elimination of an environmental problem and to the development of new high-performance materials. So it is needed to study the binder obtained by chemically activation of pozzolanic materials by means of a substitute for the exiting cement. This paper concentrated on the strength development according to the kind of chemical activators, the curing temperature, the heat curing time. Also Scanning electron microscopy and X-Ray diffraction analysis show what the reaction products of the alkali activated fly ash are.

Metakaolin is a cementitious material for producing high-strength concrete. This material is now used as substitute for silica-fume. In this paper, we did the durability test such as chloride ion diffusion, chemical attack. repeated freezing and thawing, carbonation. In the chloride ion diffusion test, according to the increase of substitute of metakaolin & silica-fume for binder, the diffusion coefficient is more reduced. And in the chemical attack test, according to the increase of substitute, the resistance is more excellent. In the other durability test, the concrete using metakaolin is also compared with those of the portland cement concrete and silica fume concrete. According to these tests, we recognized that metakaolin is able to be used as a substitute for silica-fume.

Recently, as structure is more higher and bigger, we need high strength and high performance concrete. Therefore it is necessary superplasticizer for high strength and high performance concrete. In this study, it is examined the properties of flow, air content and strength of concrete with polycarboxylate superplasticizer in comparison with existing superplasticizer. First, The slump loss of concrete used polycarboxylate superplasticizer showed 2cm until 120 minutes. Second, The air content loss of concrete used polycarboxylate superplasticizer showed $1\%$ until 120 minutes. Third, It is possible to manufacture $1000kgf/cm^2$ strength concrete using polycarboxylate superplasticizer with $806kg/m^3$ cement content, $18\%$ water-binder ratio, $15\%$ silica fume, $10\%$ fly-ash content.

This study is about the mortar in which fine aggregate is substituted by low-carbon eco-friendly inorganic composite prepared by addition of alkali accelerator in industrial by-products such as blast furnace slag, red mud and silica fume as a replacement for cement. Results of experiments on flow and strength properties in mortar of inorganic composite according to replacement rate of fine aggregate showed that amount of air and table flow decreased as replacement rate of fine aggregate about inorganic composite got higher. Also, it's shown that the compressive strength was the highest at replacement rate 50% of fine aggregate about inorganic composite.

Recently, with the increase in the construction of ultra-high buildings and long-span structures, there is great demand for high-strength concrete which can reduce the structural weight and thickness of member sections. While developing high-strength concrete to meet performance requirements, certain issues at the design stage must also be considered. The issues include diseconomy from a great amount of per-unit cement, spalling failure by fire at ultra-high building, autogenous shrinkage caused by increased hydration activity of binder from use of a superplasticizer. Therefore, the purpose of this study is examined the strain characteristics of Fiber-reinforced-high-strength concrete(FRHSC), which differ from those of general concrete owing to autogenous shrinkage. Based on the experimental data, we proposed an autogenous shrinkage prediction model.
