Porous Concrete usually contains large amount of voids(about 10∼20%) after compaction so that it has relatively high permeability. It has been introduced in domestic since early 1980's but it has problems such as lack of optimized mixture, low strength and durability, and other defects, etc. The purpose of this study is to manufacture high-performance porous concrete using polymer to enhance the mechanical properties. The results of this study are as follows; the compressive strength range 12 92∼207kgf/㎠, the tensile strength range is 14∼28kgf/㎠, the bending stength range is 42∼73kgf/㎠, and the coefficient permeability range is 5.77×10-2∼6.79×10-1cm/sec. To develope high-performance porous concrete. further studies are needed on optimum mixture of fineness modulus and admixture.

With an increased use of alternative aggregate due to exhaustion of quality aggregate resources, the amount of used crushed aggregates have been increased and as a result, development of admixture materials has also been improved and its amount of use is increasing from day to day in order to secure quality in concrete. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to make concrete of good quality by using chemical admixture developed in this study by replacement rate of fine aggregate. At first, susceptibility, compressive strength ratio and length change ratio in both fresh and hardened concrete were evaluated according to corresponding regulation. As for high performance related regulation, APC NO.3 and PC series were going to rule, and as for AE agent regulation, replacement ratio of fine aggregate of high performance chemical admixture was 10:0 and other chemical admixture met quality regulation for AE agent.

Currently many researches have been performed for enhancing durability of concrete. Rice husk ash has several advantages like early strength of concrete and dense pore structure. A calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) gel around the cement particles due to pozzolanic reaction of rice husk can increase the strength of concrete against cracking. Very limitedly a systematic and detailed investigation on the corrosion performance of rice husk ash and silica fume blended concrete is performed. A realistic approach has been made through compressive strength, bond strength, and split tensile strength etc. Corrosion performance was also evaluated rapid chloride ion penetration test (RCPT) and impressed voltage test, and the results were discussed in the paper.

In this research, the optimum combination of fly ash (FA) and blast furnace slag (BS) was deduced by analyzing the performance of high volume supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) cement mortar depending on various combinations of cement, FA, and BS. As a result, increased workability was shown with increased the portion of FA, while air content, setting time, and compressive strength were decreased.

The Fly-ash makes an Alumino-silicate gel when it mixes an alkali or a silicate solution. This Alumino-silicate gel is produced to the activation of an alkali silicate. And this act to the binder and makes a combine of particles. This study involved mechanical strengths of an Alumino-silicate Gel based the Fly-ash with an alkali solution. NaOH, KOH were utilized to an alkali solution. The alkali solution concentration was varied from 6 to 12M and the some added also the Meta-kaolin, Waterglass so that it made high the mechanical performance. Based on the experimental result, the compressive strengths increased as the quantity of the Meta-kaolin increased. And a mechanical strengths appeared according to the concentration of an alkali solution so that it was different. XRD, FT-IR have been used to characterize mechanical performance.

This paper presents the experimental results on the fire performance of high strength concrete(HSC) column made with different tie spacing. Three HSC columns measuring 305${\times}$305mm in cross section were prepared to evaluate the effect of tie spacing with 150, 210, 300mm, respectively. Compressive strength was 69MPa at test. As a result, the fire performance of HSC columns was greatly influenced by tie spacing. The fire resistance increases with decreasing the tie spacing.

In this study the thermal performance of G-PCM replaced for find aggregate in mortar specimens was evaluated using TG-DTA. As a result, it was found that when solid changed into liquid, it absorbed heat, and when liquid changed into solid, it radiated heat. In addition, the fluidity and the compressive strength of mortar with G-PCM can be applied to the floor mortar and a wall finish material. Also the higher the replacement ratio, the larger the latent heat capacity. It was found that the mortar with G-PCM slowed the increase and decrease of temperature. Thus, the duration of pleasant indoor temperature is extended by the floor and wall mortar with G-PCM. In conclusion, G-PCM is expected to reduce the heating energy consumption.

This study analyzes the change of the basic characteristics of pavement concrete according to the reinforcement of macro-fiber and the results of the study can be summarized as follows. In the case of the compressive strength of the concrete, the fiber reinforced pavement concrete shows a small decreasing level compared to the basic mixing of pavement concrete (hereafter referred as 'Plain') based on the aging of 28 days. In particular, the polypropylene fiber made in Korea represents a decrease in the strength about 12% compared with that of the Plain. In the case of the tensile strength, it shows certain improvements in the tensile performance compared with that of the Plain. In particular, in the case of the polyvinyl alcohol fiber that shows the largest improvement in tensile performance, it shows an increase in its strength about 21%. In the case of the bending strength, there are no improvements in its strength in the fiber reinforced concrete compared to that of the Plain.

Ultra high performance concrete(UHPC) has an excellent strength, toughness, and durability. It seems that it is very efficiently applicable for various structures such as bridge, building. When it is used to bridge girder, It is possible to reduce the amount of concrete and steel, to cut down costs for construction. This paper estimated whether it was applicable and how it was efficient. It was confirmed that the height of girder could be reduced by 40% or more in using UHPC. We can also think that the stirrups can be removed considering the ductile tensile behavior of UHPC and that its very high compressive strength make the anchor plate smaller from this study.
