Many public facilities including roadway, railway, and embedded pipe lines in this country have been damaged by the repeated freezing and thawing of the soil during winter and spring every year. However, there are only few research results in field of frozen ground in this country. Also, there are no the formulation of the reasonable equation for frost penetration depths and of the criterion for identifing potentially frost-susceptible soil in design manual of pavement yet. Through this study it is anticipated to asses the frost action problem in roadway, railway, and water suppply lines and to establish the design criterion about pavement in seasonal cold region.

Environmental concerns arising from synthetic herbicides in plant management systems have led to an interest in plant-derived compounds as natural herbicides. Inhibitory effects of compounds extracted with 50% methanol from corn (Zea mays L.) and pine (Pinus densiflora L.) were evaluated on large crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop.), annual bluegrass Poa annua L.), radish (Raphanus sativus L.), and perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) The aqueous extracts inhibited seed germination and had postemergence activity on the four species. The stability of biological activity of corn grain, stover, and root extracts was not affected by heating to $135^{\circ}C$ or freezing/thawing treatments when applied at levels above 0.25kg m(sup)-2 based on dry weights of powders before extraction. Heating reduced the activity of pine litter and bark extracts at all levels except the highest application level but had little effect on pine needle extracts.

Some well-known artificial weathering tests such as freezing-thawing, acid immersion, and salt crystallization are adopted to examine the change of rock properties during the processes of artificial weathering. Granites and other rock types of limestone, marble and basalt collected from different quarries in south Korea were sampled for this study. All tests were performed up to 30 cycles and physical properties were measured after experiencing every ten cycles of artificial weathering tests. During the tests, the variation trends of rock properties were too variable to draw generalized variation patterns but it can be concluded that weathering agents have different effect on rock properties depending on weathering circumstance and time. Even in short terms of salt crystallization tests, some rocks were severely deformed and then burst, and in the early stages of salt weathering, recrystallized salts filling pores and cracks in rocks could be a important factor affecting rock properties.

동결기간과 해동후 재냉장이 우육의 지방산 조성. TBA가 생육향 및 가열육향에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 홀스타인의 등심부위를 -2$0^{\circ}C$에서 6, 12 및 18개월 동경, 해동한 것과 이것을 1$^{\circ}C$에서 3일간 재냉장한 것에 대하여 실험하였다. 신선육의 총지질 중성지질 및 인지질의 단일 불포화지방산에 대한 포화지방산의 비율(MUFA/SFA)은 각각 1.35, 1.10 및 1.34이었으며 동결기간이 길어지면서 점점 감소하였다. 동결 6개월째 우육은 TBA가는 0.37 mg/MA/kg으로 신선육의 0.15 mg/MA.kg 보다 높아졌으나 산패취는 느끼지 못했다. 동결 12개월과 18개월째 우육의 TBA가는 각각 0.53과 0.64mg/MA/kg이었으며 산패취를 느낄수 있었다. 한편 재냉장한 우육은 동결기간에 관계없이 TBA가가 높아지고 생육향 평가 점수가 낮아졌으나 MUFA/SFA와 가열육향은 동결 6개월째에 향상되었고 12개월 및 18개월 째에는 저하되어 동결기간에 따라 재냉장 효과의 차이를 보였다.

Water in concrete has an effect on properties of concrete very much, such as shrinkage, creep, fire resistance, durability, freezing and thawing resistance. Therefore predicting the moisture distribution in concrete is very important. And since the diffusion process of water in concrete is strongly dependent on the temperature and pore humidity, the process is highly nonlinear phenomena. In this study, a finite element program which was capable of simulating the moisture distribution in concrete was developed, and differential drying shrinkage due to the water diffusion process was measured at the different positions of concrete. This F.E.M. program is shown that the analytical results of this study are in good agreement with experimental data. Shrinkage strain caused by moisture distribution was increased with the decrease of pore relative humidity.

At present, reinforced concrete pipe has been widely used as drain pipe. However, many reinforced concrete pipe is exposed at deteriorated environment by the growth of a sulfur-oxidizing bacterium isolated from corroded concrete. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of lining by polymer-modified mortar on the development in durability of reinforced concrete pipe. Polymer-modified mortars ate prepared with various polymer typer as cement modifier and polymer-cement ratio and rested for compressive and flexural strengths, adhesion in tension, acid resistance test, freezing and thawing test, and lining test of product in the field. From the rest results, it is apparent that polymer-modified mortars have good mechanical properties and durability as lining material. In practice, all polymers can be used as lining materials for reinforced concrete pip, and type of polymer, and polymer-cement ratio and curing conditions are controlled for good lining product.

Air voids existed in hardened concrete have an important influence on concrete deterioration such as carbonation, freezing and thawing, and corrosion of embedded steel in concrete. Therefore it is very significant to investigate the pore structure of system (size, number and continuity of air voids) to solve the reason caused concrete deterioration. The purpose of this study is to develop th standard method of measuring air voids which affect properties in hardened concrete using image analyzing system. This paper presents the settlement of rapid and exact experimental method which extracts fine bubbles, calculates the number of air voids, and determines air-voids distributions using image analyzing system with computer.

This study was conducted to evaluate durability of high-strength light-weight aggregate concretes which are increasingly demanded recently. Two different artificial light-weight aggregates were used and two levels of high-strength concretes were made using w/c of 33% and 37% for target strength of 500kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. Cylinder specimens($\phi$=10cm and h=20cm) were made and treated with freezing-and-thawing(F/T) cycle at $-18^{\cire}C$ and $4^{\cire}C$. Dynamic modulus of elasticity and surface condition were evaluated with F/T cycle increase. The results showed that durability of the light-weight aggregate concretes was worse than that of conventional concrete, and the light-weight high-strength concrete with w/c=37% had the better durability than the one with w/c=33%.

The purpose of this study is to provide the optimum mix design of cold weather concrete to be placed at the foundation structures in substation. The basic performance tests including slump and slump flow, air content, compressive strength and freezing & thawing resistance were conducted for cold weather concrete by varying with W/C ratios such as 40%, 50% and 60% and air contents such as 3%, 4%, 5% and 6%. The effect on durability of concrete corresponding to the increasing amount of air content and W/C ratio was evaluated and the optimum mix design was recommended. From this study, the concrete mix design containing 6% of air content and 45% of W/C ratio is recommended for the foundation concrete of substation.

The Durability of Concrete Structure is serverely degraded due to mainly carbonation, sulfate attack and chloride ion diffusion in concrete. The ultimate purpose of this study is to obtain how much the durability of Concrete Structure is improved according to the variation of physical properties in concrete or the frequency of surface coating on concrete. Where, variation of physical properties is a water-cement ratio or amount of air. The experiments are the chliride ion diffusion test, the lapid corrosion test, the lapid carbonation test, the test on resistance to freezing and thawing. Finally, this study shows that the effect by the surface coating method is better than the variation of physical properties in concrete.
