In this study, freezing-thawing resistance of concrete using steel slag as coarse aggregate(steel slag concrete) from Gwangyang Iron Co. was estimated to offer basic data for utilization of much more steel slag. Freezing-thawing test of concrete using crushed stone as coarse aggregate(crushed stone concrete) whose compressive strength and air contents are as close as possible to those of the steel slag concrete was performed. Because they are main two factors that affect of freezing-thawing resistance. The test was carried out up to 400 cycles according to KS F 2456. The compressive strength and weight of two concretes were measured and compared. As a result, the freezing-thawing resistance of steel slag concrete curing in water was almost the same with that of crushed stone concrete. But the resistance of steel slag concrete curing in air dry condition was weaker than that of crushed stone concrete. Also, the steel slag concrete which has more than 60% of W/C ratio showed much more surface degradation when compared to crushed stone concrete.

The interaction between the frozen soil and building structures deteriorates with the increasing temperature. A nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) stratification test was conducted with respect to the unfrozen water content on the interface and a shear test was conducted on the frozen soil-structure interface to explore the shear characteristics of the frozen soil-structure interface and its failure mechanism during the thawing process. The test results showed that the unfrozen water at the interface during the thawing process can be clearly distributed in three stages, i.e., freezing, phase transition, and thawing, and that the shear strength of the interface decreases as the unfrozen water content increases. The internal friction angle and cohesive force display a change law of "as one falls, the other rises," and the minimum internal friction angle and maximum cohesive force can be observed at -1℃. In addition, the change characteristics of the interface strength parameters during the freezing process were compared, and the differences between the interface shear characteristics and failure mechanisms during the frozen soil-structure interface freezing-thawing process were discussed. The shear strength parameters of the interface was subjected to different changes during the freezing-thawing process because of the different interaction mechanisms of the molecular structures of ice and water in case of the ice-water phase transition of the test sample during the freezing-thawing process.

본 논문에서는 FRP 복합체로 보강된 콘크리트 구조물의 동결융해 저항성을 평가하기 위하여 동결융해 진행에 따른 FRP 복합체의 인장강도 및 콘크리트에 대한 인발접착강도의 변화를 측정하였다. 주 실험변수는 동결융해 조건, FRP 복합체의 종류, 동결융해 싸이클로 설정하였다. KS F 2456의 동결융해 시험규격에 따라 실시된 탄소섬유복합체의 인장강도는 최종 싸이클까지 변화가 없었으며, 또한 접착성능의 저하도 관측되지 않아 CFRP의 동결융해 저항성은 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 이에 대하여 유리섬유복합체의 경우는 최종 싸이클에서의 인장강도 및 인발접착강도가 각각 10%, 15% 저하된 것으로 나타나 부분적으로 성능이 저하되는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 접착강도 평가시 지속적인 동결수가 공급되는 상황에서는 상이한 결과가 나타날 수 있으므로 이에 대한 주의가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

There is the freezing method as one of the ground improvement methods for excavating an underground tunnel, and due to its improved reliability, recently construction cases of applying this method into sandy soil grounds as well as cohesive soil grounds of cities have been reported. But, applying the freezing method into cohesive soil grounds could bring concerns of the expansion of the whole ground and the settlements from thawing of ground. In this study, the deformation strength characteristics of cohesive soil which received freezing and thawing hysteresis were examined using the sample collected from the site of cohesive soil ground applied with the freezing method and its structural characteristics were analyzed using an electronic microscope. And, the test with cohesive soil reconstituted from cohesive soil which received freezing and thawing hysteresis was carried out and its result was analyzed comparatively. The result of this test showed that the structure of natural clay was significantly changed due to freezing and thawing hysteresis.

Damage due to frost action in pavement structure system is creating either frost heave or stiffness-weakening of subgrade soil follow melting. The formation of ice lenses requires a frost-susceptible soil, freezing temperatures, and continuous water supply. Eliminating one of these conditions suffices to significantly reduce the intensity of frost action. It is important to know characteristics of subgrade soil in frost susceptibility or decide degree of freezing permission. Also, study on the stiffness variation of subgrade soil during freezing and thawing cycle is very important. In this study, Impact resonance test for subgrade soil at freezing and thawing confirms that is applied for.

Physicochemical changes were investigated during repeated freezing and thawing processes using fish meat paste of alaska pollack (Theragra chalcogramma). During repeated thawing process, the solubility of myofibrillar protein, $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ activity, water holding capacity (WHC), electrophoretic patterns and rheological properties were evaluated at various thawing temperatures. Solubility of myofibrillar protein and $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ activity were decreased with increasing thawing temperatures. Thawing temperatures and the frequency of freezing and thawing processes did not affect WHC significantly. Upon repeated freezing and thawing cycles, electrophoretic patterns showed that only the amount of myosin heavy chain was decreased, whereas the amount of actin remained constant. Young's modulus for viscoelasticity of fish meat pastes increased with increasing thawing temperatures and the value showed maximum at third cycle and decreased thereafter.

콘크리트 구조물은 일반적으로 동결융해 작용을 받는 조건에 노출되고, 이러한 동결융해작용은 콘크리트의 공극구조를 변화시키고, 콘크리트의 내구성을 저하시킬 우려가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 동결융해작용에 의한 콘크리트 내부공극구조 변화와 동결융해작용을 받은 콘크리트의 내구특성을 평가하고자 하였다. 실험결과, 기존의 동결융해 평가기법에 따르면 모든 배합에서 우수한 내구성능을 나타내었으나, 동결융해 작용에 노출됨에 따라 50~100nm 크기의 공극이 크게 증가하며, 콘크리트 염화물침투저항성이 저하하였다. 수중양생 콘크리트의 공극구조와 염화물 침투저항성은 선형관계를 보이지만, 동결융해작용을 받으면 내부공극구조의 변화로 선형관계가 저하하였다. 동결융해작용과 염화물침투를 동시에 받는 구조물의 내구성 평가기준에 대한 재검토가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 하수슬러지 전처리 방법으로 분쇄, 동결 해동, 동결 분쇄 조작을 한 후, 각각의 슬러지 특성의 변화를 고찰하였다. 분쇄 슬러지, 동결 해동 슬러지, 동결 분쇄 슬러지는 하수슬러지 부피에 비해 각각 2.08배, 3.37배, 3.54배 감소하여 동결 분쇄한 경우가 가장 슬러지 감소량이 컸으며 그 다음으로 동결 후 해동한 경우, 분쇄만 한 경우 순이었다. 또한 하수슬러지의 SCOD 농도, SBOD 농도, protein 농도는 동결하지 않은 것보다 동결 하는 것이 높았고, 그 중에서도 동결 후 분쇄하는 것이 가장 높은 경향을 보였다. TS, VS의 제거율은 동결한 것이 높았지만, 동결 분쇄보다 동결 해동이 높은 경향을 보였다. 이상의 결과로부터 동결 분쇄 방법이 슬러지 전처리 방법으로 매우 효과적이며 2012년부터 발효되는 슬러지 해양 투기 전면 금지에 대한 대안이 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, a survey was conducted to both evaluate the consumers' general attitudes for purchasing and storing the raw chicken and determine the thawing practices used for defrosting frozen chicken at home. About 75% of the consumers indicated purchasing chicken meat at least once a week or more. Furthermore, the majority (82.16%) of those who stored at least a portion of the raw chicken stated freezing the raw chicken meat at home. Freezing the chicken meat was considered to have no effect on the quality by 43.49% of the consumers while 56.51% thought that freezing had either negative or positive effects on the quality. The survey study indicated that top five most commonly used thawing practices included thawing on the kitchen counter, thawing in the refrigerator, thawing in the warm water, thawing in the microwave, and thawing under tap water. In addition, an experimental study was conducted to determine the effects of these most commonly used thawing practices on some quality characteristics of the chicken meat including pH, drip loss, cooking loss, color analysis and textural profile analysis. Although, $L^*$ value for thawing on the kitchen counter was the lowest, after cooking, none of the thawing treatments have a significant effect on the color values. Thawing in the microwave produced the highest drip loss of 3.47% while the lowest drip loss of 0.62% was observed with thawing in the refrigerator. On the other hand, thawing in the microwave and refrigerator caused the lowest cooking loss values of 18.29% and 18.53%, respectively. Nevertheless, there were no significant differences among textural parameter values of the defrosted and then cooked samples using the home based thawing practices, indicating similar quality characteristics among the samples.

Upon freezing a soil swells due to phase change and its compression stress increase a lot. As the soil undergo thawing, however, it becomes a soft soil layer because the 'soil changes from a solid state to a plastic state. These changes are largely dependent on freezing temperature and repeated freezing-thawing cycle as well as the density of the soil and applied loading condition. This study was initiated to describe the effect of the freezing temperature and repeated freezing-thawing cycle on the unconfined compressive strength. Soil samples were collected at about 20 sites where soil structures were installed in Kangwon provincial area and necessary laboratory tests were conducted. The results could be used to help manage effectively the field structures and can be used as a basic data for designing and constructing new projects in the future. The results were as follows ; 1. Unconfined compressive strength decreased as the number of freezing and thawing cycle went up. But the strength increased as compression speed, water content and temperature decreased. The largest effect on the strength was observed at the first freezing and thawing cycle. 2. Compression strain went up with the increase of deformation speed, and was largely influenced by the number of the freezing-thawing cycle. 3. Secant modulus was responded sensitivefy to the material of the loading plates, increased with decrease of temperature down to - -10$^{\circ}$C, but was nearly constant below the temperature. Thixotropic ratio characteristic became large as compression strain got smaller and was significantly larger in the controlled soil than in the soil treated with freezing and thawing processes 4. Vertical compression strength of ice crystal(development direction) was 3 to 4 times larger than that of perpendicular to the crystal. The vertical compression strength was agreed well with Clausius-Clapeyrons equation when temperature were between 0 to 5C$^{\circ}$, but the strength below - 5$^{\circ}$C were different from the equation and showed a strong dependency on temperature and deformation speed. When the skew was less then 20 degrees, the vertical compression strength was gradually decreased but when the skew was higher than that, the strength became nearly constant. Almost all samples showed ductile failure. As considered above, strength reduction of the soil due to cyclic freezing-thawing prosses must be considered when trenching and cutting the soil to construct soil structures if the soil is likely subject to the processes. Especially, if a soil no freezing-thawing history, cares for the strength reduction must be given before any design or construction works begin. It is suggested that special design and construction techniques for the strength reduction be developed.
