This paper demonstrates an experimental study to evaluate the effects of environmental exposures on the bond between ribbed Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) reinforcing bars and concrete. The equation recommended by ACI 440-1R-06, for the bond stress,was evaluated in this study. A total of 16 pullout samples, 12with GFRP bars and 4with steel bars, were exposed to two different harsh environments for different periods of time. The exposed harsh environments included direct sun exposure and cyclic splash zone sea water. The variation in the shear (bond) strengths before and after exposure was considered as a measure of the durability of the bond between GFRP bars and concrete.Experimental results showed there is no significant difference of the bond strength between 60 and 90 days of exposures.It also showed that the empirical equation of the bond stress calculated by ACI 440-IR-06 is very conservative.

Recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) made from waste concrete is not a suitable structural material as it has high absorption of cement mortar, which adheres on the aggregate surface and on the tiny cracks thereon. Therefore, when using RCA made from waste concrete, much water must be added with the concrete, and slump loss occurs when transporting. Hence, its workability is significantly worse than that of other materials. In this study, surface of RCA was coated with water-soluble polycarboxylate (PC) dispersant so that its characteristics improved. Each possibility was evaluated: whether its slump loss can be controlled, by measuring its workability based on the elapsed time; and whether it can be used as a structural material, by measuring its strength. Moreover, the carbonation due to cement mortar adhesion was measured through a carbonation test. As a result, RCA coated with PC dispersant was found to be better than crushed coarse aggregate and RCA when the physical properties of the fresh concrete and the mechanical, durability of the hardened concrete were tested.

Recently, the environment problems are risen to social problems. People have requested the convenience of a human activity and the enhancement of a human quality. The facility was, however, emphasized on the acquisition and treatment of water with the construction and maintenance of a irrigation and drainage structure. The concept of an environmental friendship has been introduced to change our society structure to an environment friendship at 21th century. But the concept lacks theoretical and systematic foundation. So, The maintenance technique, concrete products and construction methods will be made to be an environment friendship. The standards for environment friendship will be presented.

Clayey paddy soils should be mixed with other good coarse soils to be used as a material for the lining, or, embankment. However, it has been difficult to separate soil particles from each other because of the internal cohesion in the soil gradation(separation) characteristics of the fine soil were investigated by various laboratory tests including the slaking durability test. Degradation rate of the soil were dependent upon the clay content and the initial water content before the submergence. The amount of degradations decreased as initial water content increased with exponential functions. The dried specimens separated into the particles after 24 hours of the submergence and specimens which water contents were less than 10% also separated into the particles after 2, or 3 days of the submergence. Compaction curves and the unconfined strength were not varied before and after the submergence. However, unconfined strength decreased as water content increased.

In a traditional society, building materials were developed fulfilling the requirements of conveniences and functionalities such as safety, construction work, durability and economical efficiency. However, as the concern about environmental or users' health issues has been elevated recently, research and development about eco-friendly material are alto vigorously promoted further In addition, thanks to the steady growth of domestic industry, the amount of discharged industrial by-product is getting increasing. However, its recycling rate remain at low level as most industrial by-products are filled up in the land, which worsen the environmental pollution. Zeolite powder is cement admixture and is expected to have constraining effect of factors causing symptoms of inhabitants in a new house and alleviates the amount of discharged harmful elements emitted from hardened cement.

The purpose of this study is to develop a method of evaluating eco-efficiency of concrete based on environmental load emission, manufacturing cost, and durability in the concrete production process. Eco-efficiency is an advanced concept used to evaluate eco-friendliness of concrete. This technique intends to produce environment-friendly and highly durable concrete while minimizing environmental load on the ecosystem and manufacturing cost based on the results of service life assessment on concrete. This technique can be utilized to efficiently evaluate sustainability of concrete and find methods to improve it. Furthermore, the vision of this study is to contribute to implementation of environment-friendly concrete and construction industry.

Current available commercial membranes are not robust and are therefore destroyed if left to dry out or handled roughly. Woven fibre microfiltration (WFMF) membranes have advantages over its competitors with respect to durability, thus, favourable for the developing economies and operation during rough conditions. Evaluation of the effects of aeration and brushing as a flux enhancement strategies for WFMF membrane was the purpose of this study. The WFMF membrane was found to be susceptible to pore plugging by colloidal material and adsorption/attachment by microbiological contaminants. This led to a 50% loss in flux. Aeration as a single flux enhancement strategy proved insufficient to maintain high flux successfully. Therefore combined flux enhancement strategies yielded the best results.

The Korean medical evacuation helicopter was developed based on the Korean Utility Helicopter (hereafter referred to as 'Surion'). It uses an auxiliary power unit and engine for heating during winter operation. The helicopter maintains the internal temperature of the aircraft using its bleed air to satisfy its operational capability. However, due to the air inflow through the gap between the aircraft skin and door, additional heating for operating the portable medical equipment and preventing hypothermia in evacuated patients is required. Accordingly, an electric auxiliary heater was developed for additional heating during winter operation, and environmental, durability, and performance tests were conducted per MIL-STD-810G and MIL-STD-461F. The auxiliary heater was verified per the tailored airworthiness certification criteria.

소규모 설비, 시공 용이성 등 다양한 장점으로 인하여 국내의 건설현장에서 광범위하게 사용되고 있는 그라우팅 관련 기술은 과거에 비해서 비약적으로 발전되었지만 품질의 균질성, 장기 내구성 및 환경공해 등의 문제점에 대한 개선 노력은 현재까지도 지속되고 있다. 최근 국내에서는 물유리계 그라우팅 재료가 갖는 낮은 강도와 내구성, 용탈현상 발생 등의 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 자기치유 물질을 이용한 그라우팅공법이 개발되었다. 자기치유 물질을 이용한 그라우팅공법은 주입재가 지반 내 물과 반응하여 생성한 결정 성장형 자기치유 물질에 의해서 주입재와 지반이 일체화되기 때문에 지반의 내구성 및 차수성 향상, 용탈방지 및 친환경성 등을 기대할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 △△터널 및 주변지반을 대상으로 자기치유 물질을 이용한 그라우팅공법의 예비시험 및 현장적용(표준관입시험, 현장투수시험, 공내 전단시험, 공내재하시험, 지시약반응시험 등)을 실시하였고 시공 전·후에 대한 실규모 시공조건에서의 주입범위, 차수 및 지반개량 효과 등을 비교, 분석하였다. 예비시험 및 현장적용 결과를 바탕으로 자기치유 물질을 이용한 그라우팅공법의 현장적용성 및 개량효과는 양호한 것으로 파악되었다.
