The study on the strength prediction using Maturity is mainly focused on, but the study on the concrete mixing blast furnace slag powder is insufficient. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between compressive strength and equivalent age by Maturity function and is to compare and examine the strength prediction of concrete mixing Blast Furnace Slag Power using ACI and Logistic Curve prediction equation. So it is intended that fundamental data are presented for quality management and process management of concrete mixing Blast Furnace Slag Power in the construction field.

This paper was to investigate the effect of incinerator ash on engineering properties of the high volume blast furnace slag concrete through Mock-up test. Test results revealed that the use of recycled aggregates resulted in increase of slump compared with the OPC concrete. But, the use of recycled aggregates did not affect the results of air contents and chloride contents. The use of recycled aggregates showed shortening of setting time of high volume blast furnace slag concrete. When the recycled aggregate was used, delay in strength development at early age happened with high volume blast furnace slag concrete compared with that of OPC concrete.

Model Based Predictive Control(MBPC) has been widely used in predictive control since 80's. GPC[1] which is the superset of many MBPC strategies a popular method, but GPC has some weakness, such as insufficient stability analysis, non-applicability to internally unstable systems. However, CRHPC[2] proposed in 1991 overcomes the above limitations. So we chose RHPC based on CRHPC for electric furnace control. An electric furnace which has nonlinear properties and large time delay is difficult to control by linear controller because it needs nearly perfect modelling and optimal gain in case of PID. As a result, those controls are very time-consuming. In this paper, we applied RHPC with equality constraint to electric furnace. The reults of experiments also include the case of RHPC with monotonic weighting improving the transient response and including unmodelled dynamics. So, This paper proved the practical aspect of RHPC for real processes.

Recently, to consider financial and constructive aspect, usage of Admixture, like Blast-Furnace Slag and Fly-Ash, are increased. Also the use of cold-weather-concrete is increased. Blast-furnace Slag, a by-product of steel industry, have many advantage, to reduce the heat of hydration, increase in ultimate strength and etc. But it also reduces early-age strength, so it is prevented from using of Blast-Furnace Slag at cold-weather-concrete. In this study, for the purpose of increasing usage of Blast-Furnace Slag at cold-weather-concrete, it is investigated the strength properties of concrete subjected to frost damage for the cause of early age curing. According to this study, if early curing is carried out before having frost damage, the strength of concrete, subjected to frost damage, is recovered. And that properties is not connected with the frost cause.

In this paper, rust-protection performance of concrete using ground granulated blast-furnace slag are discussed. 4 kinds of W/B in combination with 3 kinds of replacement ratio of ground granulated blast-furnace slag and 2 kinds of chloride ion contents of are selected as experimental parameters. According to the experimental results, as the replacement ratio of ground granulated blast-furnace slag is increased, the corrosion area of steel bar tends to be decreased. However, as the autoclave cycle and chloride ion contents are increased, the corrosion area of steel bar is increased. In conclusion, when the replacement ratio of ground granulated blast-furnace slag is 50%, the strength and rust-protection performance appear to be most excellent.

The purpose of this study is to examine through the experimental study whether the water cooled unprocessed blast furnace slag produced in the country is useful for the fine aggregate of concrete or not. The results of this study show that the quality of the water cooled blast furnace slag is inferior to that of natural river sand and that the concrete made by substituting the water cooled blast furnace slag for fine aggregate have a tendency to decrease to some extent in strength. But if the water cooled blast furnace slag is transformed into more hardened state material, to use it as the fine aggregate of concrete will be possible.

According to this study, if early age curing is carried out before having frost damage, the strength of concrete, subjected to frost damage, is recovered. And that properties is not connected with the frost cause.

This paper was peformed to verify the effect that granulated blast furnace slag gets in reinforcement corrosion resistance about chloride ion that invade from outside. An experiment accelerated for the reinforcement corrosion through repeat of brine digestion and dry. Reinforcement corrosion investigated half cell potential method of measurement by ASTM C876 and corrosion area ratio. If granulated blast furnace slag metathesis ratio is high generally that looked the corrosion of reinforcement decreasing as a result that evaluate reinforcement corrosion by ASTM C876 canon in this research. It showed high resistance about reinforcement corrosion that use normal portland cement and increase the metathesis rate of granulated blast furnace slag, as a result that evaluate metathesis rate effect of granulated blast furnace slag according to cement kind. when the test piece split destroying, area rate of reinforcement corrosion showed about result of half cell potential measurement.

In this paper, the optimal heating pattern of the furnace is sought to reduce the unnecessary energy loss. A finite difference method was used to estimate the transient temperature field of the billet in a furnace. Heat conduction equations were used in the interior nodes of the billet, while energy balances for conduction, convection, and radiation were considered in the boundary nodes. Several heating patterns for the furnace were tested and subsequently compared each other. The results showed that the temperature in the preheating zone should be set to relatively low. The temperature distributions of the billet are quite different from each other when different heating pattern are used, even though the heating patterns have the same amount of energy consumption. It reveals that there exists an optimal heating pattern to save the energy loss.

This is a basic experimental research tried to use electric furnace slag as a fine aggregate for concrete. Chemical component and physical properties of electric furnace slag were studied, and expansion mechanism and aging method for stabalization of electric furnace slag were discussed. Concrete properties electric furnace slag as a fine aggregate were also studied in this paper.
