In pretensioned concrete structures, bond between prestressing steel and concrete is an essential component to ensure the integrity of a pretensioned member. The anchorage and development of the prestressing force depend exclusively on bond. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of bond and development length between pretensioned steel and concrete. To resolve the controversy over the adequacy of the current code provision on development length of prestressing strands, a comprehensive test program has been scheduled and twenty four rectangular prestressed concrete beams have been tested to determine development length. Major test variables include diameter of strands (12.7mm, 15.2mm) and concrete covers (3cm, 4cm, 5cm). The test results indicate that the development length based on the bond stress-slip relation. The proposed model can evaluate realistically the development length of pretensioned prestressed concrete members and can be the good basis for the future basis of code equations on development length of PSC members.

The purpose of this study to fine the mixture of concrete for Top-Down method. As a result, In fresh concrete, slump value and slump-flow value were increased as fly ash concrete(10% ratio). When plasticizer was added 1.5% by weigh of binder in concrete, no fly ash concrete and fly ash concrete(10% ratio) all occurred segregation. And, no fly ash concrete and fly concrete(10% ratio) all showed compressive strength development close plain concrete as increasing plasticizer quantity. Especially, in case of 1.5% plasticizer of binder showed high compressive strength development.

This Paper concerns the compressive strength development tendencies of concrete according to their Ages and curing conditions. The test results are on follows; (1) The compressive strength development of concrete appears larger according to the curing conditions under water curing, condition structural curing and field curing conditions. (2) The compressive strength development rate of concrete after 28 days' curing becomes smaller, but the case of lower strength of concrete not.

In this paper, strength development of concrete using blast-furnace slag cement(BSC) and ordinary portland cement(OPC) are discussed under varius W/C and curing temperatures. According to the experimental results, strength development of BSC concrete is lower than that of OPC concrete in low temperature at early age and maturity. In high curing temperature, BSC concrete has higher strength development than that of low temperature regardless of the elapse of age and maturity. BSC has much effect on the strength development of concrete at the condition of mass concrete, hot weather concreting and the concrete products with the steam curing, which is influenced by high temperature.

The strength development of Flyash concrete containing various amount of Flyash (0, 10, 30, 50%) using as a cement replacement material was investigated two types of curing conditions, namely water curing at $21^{\cire}C$ and steam curing at $25^{\cire}C$ were adopted for this work, in water curing the strength development of Flyash concrete was always inferior to that of OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) concrete at early ages, although the differences were dependant up percentage of Flyash. The strength of Flyash concrete based on equivalent strength development at 28 days was also tested and the results exhibited that the strength was improved at early days, specially, the concrete containing 30% of Flyash, in steam curing for the same mix(270kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$) the strength of Flyash concrete similar to that of OPC concrete, in other words. Flyash was strongly influenced by curing temperature in the strength development.

The strength development of polymer concrete using an unsaturated polyester polymer varies depending on many factors. However, the strength development is mostly dependent upon the age and curing temperature if the mixture ratios are the same. This study conducted to experimentally describe the relationship between the strength development and maturity which is defined as a function of $\Sigma$(time $\times$ temperature). The research result may be applied to predict the compressive, tensile and splitting strengths of the polymer concrete by computing the maturinty of the concrete.

Strength development of low heat portland cement(Type IV) concrete in high strength range is tested. In this study strength development according to water-binder ratio, strength development according to age, effect of fly ash and super plasticizer are tested. This study tests effect of low heat portland cement in high strength range concrete and provide guide line concrete mix design for later study and/or construction.

The objective of the paper is to experimentally investigate the compressive strength of the concrete incorporating fly ash. Ordinary Portland cement(OPC). Water to binder ratio(W/B) ranging from 30% to 60% and curing temperature ranging from $-10^{\circ}{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ were also adopted for experimental parameters. Fly ash was replaced by 30% of cement contents. According to the results, strength development of concrete contained with fly ash is lower than that of plain concrete in low temperature at early age and maturity. In high curing temperature, the concrete with fly ash has higher strength development than that of low temperature regardless of the elapse of age and maturity. Fly ash can have much effect on the strength development of concrete at the condition of mass concrete, hot weather concreting and the concrete products for the steam curing.

High flowing concrete has been made using a combination of different cementitious material. The use of supplementary cementitious material like ground granulated slag is not only interesting from an economical point of view but also from a mechanical and rheological point of view. In the case of high strength concrete, relation between the maturity and compressive strength development of high strength concrete is aproximated by appling gompertz curve and suggested new estimating method. It is the aim of this study to analysis the effect of different types of mineral fine power on the setting and compressive strength development of high flowing concrete.

This research examined the effect of the quality of aggregate on concrete workability and compressive strength through an investigation into regional aggregate used in domestic ready mixed concrete plants. Through the research, it was found that aggregate for ready mixed concrete shows poor quality overall. The main factor of deterioration in the quality of the concrete is the particle size of fine aggregate and fine particle content in coarse aggregate. The quality of aggregate significantly influences concrete's workability, which is defined based on 0.08mm passage related with powder and absorption. In addition, poor aggregate quality leads to increased water content in concrete to secure workability, which is related with a decline in the compressive strength and durability of concrete.
