Steel slag is produced during steel making process. Compared with the blast furnace slag, converter slag has the expansibility due to the reaction with water and free CaO. Therefore it is specified in Standard Specification for Concrete in Korea that steel slag aggregate must not be used in concrete. In this study, atomized steel slag aggregate is conducted from converter slag by the atomizing method. Atomized steel slag and conventional converter slag are same in its composite by nature in the converter but compounds of the composite become different because of different method of slag treatment. Especially atomized steel slag aggregate overcomes expansibility that is the weak point for usage. It is researched whether it has the possibility, suitability for fine aggregate in concrete. Slump and air content are measured in fresh concrete, compressive and bending strength in hardened concrete. These is compared with control concrete with washed sand.

Large-scaling recycling of demolished concrete will concrete will contribute not only to the solution of a growing waste disposal problem, it will also help to consweve natural resoures of sand and gravel and to secure future supply of reasonly priced aggregates for building and other construction purposes within large urban areas. Because recycled aggregate particles consits of substantial amount of relatively soft cement paste component, it is less resistant to mechanical actions. With this view in mind, to obtain a reference data for the development of recycling system and to a basic data the guiedline of recycled aggregate concrete construction and engineering properties of recycled aggregate concrete according to the factors, such as blending ratio of recyced aggregete with the natural aggregate, addition to the factors, such as blending ratio of recycled aggregete with the natural aggregate, addition of flyash, water coment ratio.

The utilization of high flowing concrete in construction sites is a world wide trend, and it will be increase to need for high flowing concrete in our construction sites. While it is quite easy to make high-flowing concrete in the laboratory, controlling slump in the field long enough to ensure easy placement once the concrete arrives at job site can be difficult. This study is the experimental study on the high-flowing and engineering properties of high flowing concrete using river sand and crushed stone according to the replacement percentage of fly-ash. As a results of this study is the mix proportion of replacement percentage of fly-ash 30% better than the others. And it is confirm to possibility of manufacture of the high flowing concrete.

This paper describes results of an preliminary study to produce strain hardening cement-based composites (SHCCs)with consideration of sustainability for infrastructure applications. The aims of this study are to evaluate the influence of recycled materials on the mechanical characteristics of SHCCs, such as compressive, four-point bending, and direct tensile behaviors, and to give basic data for constitutive model for analyzing and designing infra structures with SHCCs. In this study, silica sand, cement, and PVA fibers, were partially replaced with recycled sand, fly-ash, and FET fibers in the mixture of SHCCs, respectively. Test results indicated that fly-ash could improve both bending and direct tensile performance of SHCCs due to increasing chemical bond strength at the interface between PVA fibers and cement matrices. However, SHCCs replaced with PET fibers showed much lower performance in bending and direct tensile tests due to originally low mechanical properties of own fibers, although compressive behavior is similar to PVA2.0 specimen. Also, it was noted that the recycled sand would increase elastic modulus of SHCCs due to larger grain size compared to silica sand. Based on pre-set target value to maintain the performance of SHCCs, it was concluded that the replacement ratio below 20% of fly-ash or below 50% of recycled sands would be desirable for creating sustainable SHCCs.

Waste Concrete Powder will be generated during the manufacture of construction waste as recycled aggregate Waste concrete. The main component of the waste concrete Powder is a silica-based composition 51% SiO₂, waste concrete cement-based composition Al₂O₃ 10%, CaO 26% component are contained. The material is silica sand of PHC piles should experiment by replacing the Waste Concrete Powder. The compressive strength results are as follows. 25% when the Silica was replaced 32.5Mpa, when 50% have replaced 43.4Mpa, when 75% have replaced 45.3Mpa was measured. Compared with the non-replaced test sample it appears that the strength increases. Therefore, it is determined that the practical use of the PHC piles by replacing silica via this experiment is possible.

Permeable polymer concrete in this study is one of the environment conscious concrete that can be applied at road, side walks and river embankment, etc. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of mix proportions such as resing content, filler-binder ratio and aggregate ratio on the freezing and thawing resistance of permeable polymer concrete. The permeable polymer concrete are prepared with the resin ratio of 5%, 6% and 7%, filler-binder ratio of 0, 0.5 and 1.0, and 2.5~5mm sized aggregate ratio to standard sand of 10:10, 10:20, 20:10 and 20:20. It is tested for freezing and thawing test according to ASTM C 666092, and then, weight change, length change, relative dynamic modulus, durability factor, and compressive and flexural strengths after test are measured. From the test results, the resistance to freezing and thawing of permeable polymer concrete increased with increase the resing content, filler-binder ratio and fine aggregate ratio.

As the waste concrete is increased by demolition according to the plan of city-reconstruction and preperation of city-environment etc, the production of waste concrete in the country is being very increased every years. Because the use of recycled aggregate is low, the cases of unlawful reclamation and disuse are increased. These occur the social and economic problems. This experimental study is to investigate the fluidity, compressive strength and durability of flowing recycled aggregate concrete using the river sand and recycled coarse aggregate according to the replacement rate of fly-ash and to present the fundamental data for the using of flowing recycled aggregate concrete.

Concrete has a many problems to apply high rise building of its low strength to weight and low ductility, compared to steel products. Therefore, it is necessary to make high strength concrete for applying to night rise building. In the experiment, the high strength concrete was made in variable of unit weight of binder, water to binder ratio(W/B), and sand to aggregate ratio(S/a) using batcher plant. As a result, it was possible to make high strength concrete using only materials for ordinary concrete without admixtures such like silica fume in batcher plant.

The purpose of this study is to propose new estimation method of unit cement content in hardened concrete. In general, the quantity of cement in hardened concrete is tested by hydrochlonic acid dissolving cement paste, however, hydrochloric acid dissolves sea shell contained in sea sand and lime stone in concrete. Therefore, the tested cement content is apt to estimate greater than actual cement content. The sodium gluconate solution dissolves only cement in concrete, it is hard to dissolve sea shell and lime stone as CaCo3. The effects of the quantity, concentration and temperature of sodium gluconate solution, the ignition temperature, the ignition loss of cement on the cement content and the percentage of dissolution of cement were investigated to establish a test method. From the results of these tests, the fundamental test method for cement content of hardened concrete by sodium gluconate is proposed.

Conventional concrete mixing method is to put all of the materials simultaneously into a mixer and mix for a required time. However, recently concrete researchers have reported that mixing sequence iufluences the properties of concrete. This study discusses the influence of mixing sequence and partitioning addition of mixing water. Concrete, by method of partitioning addition of mixing water, was found to have substantially stronger strength than conventional concrete with the same water-cement ratio. This means that a higher strength concrete could be obtained by using “Sand Enveloped with Cement”(S.E.C) mixing technique. Both a high bond strength between cement paste and aggregate, and elimination of bleeding both contribute to improving the strength of S. E. C concrete.
