The purpose of this research is to examine strength properties of epoxy-modified mortar with expansive and swelling agent contents. The polymer-modified mortars (PMMs) using epoxy resin are prepared with various polymer-binder ratios, expansive and swelling agent contents. The PMMs using epoxy resin are tested for compressive, flexural and tensile strengths. As a result, the strength properties of the PMMs using epoxy resin are depending on the polymer-binder ratio rather than expansive and swelling agent content, and are remarkably improved over unmodified mortar (UMM).

In this study, flexural strength and tile adhesion strength were evaluated by using a mortar, dry mortar and an epoxy resin reinforced mortar to examine the adhesion performance by reinforcing the epoxy resin adhesive. As a result, it was clearly confirmed that the effect of improving the adhesion strength by reinforcing the epoxy resin adhesive regardless of the type of tile, and in particular, when applying the epoxy resin adhesive to the porcelain and polishing tiles, it is judged that sufficient adhesion performance can be secured.

This paper presents an experimental study on flexural behavior of structural member enlarged with epoxy mortar system. The main test variable is flexural tensile strength. A series of 4 test beams was tested to shoe the corresponding effect of each variables on maximum load capacity, load-deflection and moment-curvature relationship, interface behavior and failure mode. The results show that the flexural tensile strength of retrofitted materials have no relation load-deflection, but to load-strain, and failure mode.

This paper was aimed to evaluate the structural performance of flexural members repaired by polymer cement and epoxy mortar at soffit. Main test variables were repair materials, ratio of reinforcement and additional reinforcing bars. Test results shows that the repaired beams could change flexural capacity by materials and additional reinforcing bars. In polymer cement, the section repaired can carry same load, cracking moment and the flexural stiffness of the monolithic beams with same size. In epoxy mortar, all data were greater than the shotcrete. However, note that epoxy mortar may conduct member into brittle failure mode.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural performance of reinforcement corrosion reinforced concrete beams strengthened with epoxy mortar system. Main test parameters are existence and the magnitude of the reinforcement corrosion and the reinforcing bar and the tensile reinforcement ratio of the specimens. eight beam specimens were tested to investigate the effectiveness of each test variables on maximum load capacity and failure mode. Test results showed that the ultimate moment of th specimens were higher tan the nominal moment and the flexural stiffness was increased about 2.5 times and the cracking moments occurred over 60% of the failure moment in comparison with same sized control beam. However, note that epoxy mortar may conduct member into brittle failure mode.

The repair and reinforcement materials of the concrete structure in underwater is use to epoxy mortar for underwater-harding. Because it ensures the separation of material and a fluidity in construction, it is important to epoxy mortar This study dealt with the influence of the using of rapidly-chilled steel slag on flow, nozzle passing time, viscosity, and strength of mortar by experimental design. As results of study, this paper proved that the more the using rate of rapidly chilled steel slag increased, the more this affected the enhancement of flow, the decrease of O-lot, and the development of compressive strength, flexural strength. Also, considering the fluidity, nozzle passing time and strength of mortar, it is desirable to use RCSS300 of rapidly chilled slag.

The major objective of this study was to investigate the heat resistance of epoxy resin mortar. For this purpose, these tests of compressive and bending strength were accomp- olished with various heating temperature (40˚C, 60˚C, 80˚C, 100˚C, 120˚C), and with various mixing ratio (1: 2, 1: 4, 1: 6, 1: 8, 1:10, 1:12, 1:14). The exprimental resin was to be Epi-Bis type epoxy resin, which is widely used as construction materials. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. The variations of color tone started to begin at 60˚C, and it has come out very heavy at 120˚C. It was assumed that the decrement of weight resulted from carbonization were about 0.22% at 100˚C, and about 0.34% at 120˚C. 2. The compressive and bending strength were increased with temperature rise up to 80˚C, but these were made rapid decrease when the given temperature was over. And so, the mean decrement of compressive and bending strength at 120˚C reached up to 35.5% and 26.4%, respectively. 3. The regression equation between compressive and bending strength for epoxy resin mortar under heat exposure were obtained as follows; od=0. 371oc+39. 23 (r=0. 986) And the estimated value of bending strength was corresponded to about 37 percent in comparing with that of the compressive strength. 4. Consquently, the heat resistance temperature of epoxy resin mortar was to be around 80˚C, and it was generally very low values. But it was regarded that the epoxy resin mortar will not be difficult with materials of civil engineering works and agricultural structures.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shrinkage properties of a tile reinforced with epoxy resin, which has the advantages of high adhesion and low shrinkage, and causes a hardening reaction by chemical bonding with cement mortar. As a result, since the epoxy resin adhesive suppresses the moisture evaporation of the mortar, the drying shrinkage of the mortar itself is reduced, accordingly, the shrinkage of the tile itself is greatly reduced, and it is thought that it is possible to prevent a decrease in adhesion due to shear stress.

The purpose of this study is to ascertain strengths and hardening rate of epoxy-modified mortar with wood-tar contents. The polymer-modified mortars (PMMs) using epoxy resin with wood-tar are prepared with various polymer-binder ratios of 1, 3, 5% and wood-tar contents of 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%. The PMMs using epoxy resin are tested for compressive, flexural and tensile strengths and hardening rate of epoxy resin. As a result, the strengths and hardening rate under polymer-binder ratio 1% and wood-tar content of 5% are more excellent than those of other specimens.

This study investigates material properties of epoxy resins and reinforced materials for adhesion repairing-reinforced of RC construction. According to the test. elasticity modulus of mortar indicated 16-26(GPa) and that of concrete was 18-27(GPa). It became decreased as mixture proportion, W/C and fluidity of both mortar and concrete increased In addition the elasticity modulus of epoxy resins exhibited around 45.3-220(GPa), while that of steel plate and Carbon Bar indicated 338(GPa) and 34.1 (GPa), respectively. It is obvious that individual materials had big different value of elasticity modulus. Meanwhile, thermal expansion coefficients of mortar was 10-13 ${\mu}\varepsilon$ /$^{\circ}C$ and that of concrete was 9-11 $\mu \varepsilon$ /$^{\circ}C$ The increase of mixture Voportion and W/C resulted in lower value of thermal expansion coefficients and the increase of flow and slump exhibited slightly higher value. The epoxy resin indicated 41-54 ${\mu}\varepsilon$ /$^{\circ}C$ which is 4-5 times larger value than concrete and steel plate and Carbon Bar was 11.93 ${\mu}\varepsilon$ /$^{\circ}C$ and -1.68 ${\mu}\varepsilon$ /$^{\circ}C$ respectively. Hence, the adhesion strength of the epoxy resins should be considered before it is used in field condition, due to different thermal expansion coefficient of each material.
