The purpose of this study is to develope of alternative adimixture for manufacture of PHC pile(compressive strength above 800kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$). For the investigation, properties of alternative admixture admixed with II-anhydrite and pozollanic fine powders(e.q., Fly-ash, Silica-Fume), the fluidity and viscosity in the cement pastes, the fluidity and compressive strength in mortars at steam curing condition, were respectively examined. Also, properties of compressive strength of concretes with exiting admixture(specimen name SM) and alterantive admixture(specimen name AP) for PHC pile, at steam and standard curing condition, were compared each other. As a result of this experimental study, it was found that specimens admixed with II-anhydrite and pozollanic fine powders had an increase on the fluidity of cement paste and mortar, and compressive strength of mortar and concrete was as good as concrete with SM.

This paper presents an experimental study to investigate the behavior of mechanical anchorage of reinforcing bars in concrete members. Three kinds of mechanical anchorage which are a kind of headed reinforcements are considered in this study. Total seven specimens were prepared to consider the effects of anchoring methods (Type A, Type B and Type C) and anchorage lengths of the reinforcing bars (14 $d_{b}$, 12 $d_{b}$, 9 $d_{b}$). Pullout tests conforming to ASTM were carried out to assess the effects of several variables on anchoring strength of bars. Based on the test results, it was concluded that the behavior of the specimen anchored by the mechanical anchorage with the anchor-age length of 12 $d_{b}$, is as good as, or better than that of the specimen anchored by 90-degree standard hook.rd hook.

An experimental program has been carried out to investigate the effect of edge-slope on compressive strength of concrete specimens. In this study, effect of such slope was investigated by testing 100 standard cylinder specimens and 40 standard cubes. When molds are put on a slanted place, wet concrete starts to flow through the open end of mold. It keeps flowing until it reaches to a parallel surface with the place over which it was placed. That creates a sloped surface over the loading area. Experimental results revealed significant relationships between failure loads and slope of loading surface for cylinders. Angled cracks occurred in sloped cylinder specimens. Tension cracks occurred in cube specimens. Fracture mechanisms were also evaluated by using finite element analyses approach. Experiments yielded an exponential curve with bandwidth for cylinders. Average value of curve is $y={\frac{\pi}{2}}e^{-cf}$ between slope and compressive strength. Inclination is much effective parameter for cylinders than cubes.

The unique technology was developed to control the hydration heat of mass concrete by adding the Phase Change Material(PCM) to concrete. The PCM was designed to liquefy at 60 degrees and its size was limited under $10{\sim}30$ micro meters to be put in pores and to have no effect on compressive strength. In the hydration heat test, center temperature of the PCM specimen was reduced by 10 degrees without any difference in the strength. Even in the adiabatic temperature rise test, the final adiabatic temperature rise amount was reduced as much as 25% in comparison with the standard value in Korean Concrete Standard Specification.

The strength and durability of concrete are affected by various factors such as the quality of material, mixing ratio, construction, the method of cure, time elapsed. the condition of test and etc., it is very difficult to pre-estimate the strength of concrete with the use of experimental specimen. The domestic standard of specimen cylindrical type and its sizes are both l0cm$\times$20cm and 15cm$\times$30cm, which are prescribed in KS F2405, and the loading speed is prescribed to test with 2~3kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ per second. The loading speed should have great effect on the compressive strength, but in reality in the construction site sometimes the loading speed is applied so dubiously that the value of the compressive strength can be unreliable. And the cross sectional area of a specimen should be level and smooth, otherwise it can be broken at a lower stress than the real strength through the eccentric or intensive working of the load. Capping should be carried out in order to measure the strength correctly. And used for capping are various materials such as capping compound, cement glue, plaster, mechanical grinding and etc. In this study, therefore, I have carried out an experiment on the relationship among the loading speed, the ratio of height to diameter of specimen, the method of capping, and the compressive strength, for the efficient quality control of concrete structures. So this study has been purposed to provide some basic data that can be used effectively at construction sites.

Because of the high unit cement content in the concrete mix, major concrete temperature rises are observed in the initial stages of hardening in structural members with large cross-sections made of high-strength concrete. While this temperature rise in the initial stages of hardening contributes to the initial development of the concrete strength, it also causes thermal cracking and obstructs medium to long-term increases of the concrete strength. In the study reports below, investigations were made on the effects of the concrete temperature rise in the initial stages of hardening on the medium to long-term development of the strength of structural concrete between the ages of 28 and 91 days. In the study, comparisons were made, for example, between the compressive strength of a control specimen subjected to standard curing at 28 days and the compressive strength of core specimens taken from structural members, and observations were made on the methods of evaluating the concrete strength in structure, defined here as the compressive strength of core specimens at 91 days. The results obtained indicate that, when the maximum temperature of the concrete is the structure does not exceed $60^{\circ}C$, the concrete strength in structure at the age of long-term will generally be greater than the compressive strength of the standard-curing specimens at 28 days, allowing one to evaluate the strength of the structural concrete in terms of the compressive strength of the 28-days standard-curing specimens. When, on the other hand, the maximum temperature of the concrete in the structure exceeds $60^{\circ}C$, the strength in concrete structure may be smaller than the compressive strength of the 28-days standard-curing specimens, creating risks in the evaluation of the concrete strength in structure by latter.

As known, concrete classes are described as strength of standard specimens produced and kept in ideal conditions, not including reinforcement and not subjected to any load effect before. Under the circumstances, transforming core strengths to the standard specimen strength is necessary and considering all parameters, affected on the core strength, is inevitable. In fact, effects of the reinforcement and the load history on concrete strength are generally neglected when these mentioned transforms are performing. The main purpose of this paper is investigating the effects of the reinforcement and the load history on the core strength. This investigation is experimentally performed on cores drilled from specimens having different keeping conditions, reinforced, unreinforced, subjected to bending and central pressure in various proportions of failure load during specified periods. Obtained results show that the importance of these effects cannot be neglected.

This paper presents a revised procedure for computation of double-K fracture parameters of concrete split-tension cube specimen using weight function of the centrally cracked plate of finite strip with a finite width. This is an improvement over the previous work of the authors in which the determination of double-K fracture parameters of concrete for split-tension cube test using weight function of the centrally cracked plate of infinite strip with a finite width was presented. In a recent research, it was pointed out that there are great differences between a finite strip and an infinite strip regarding their weight function and the solution of infinite strip can be utilized in the split-tension specimens when the notch size is very small. In the present work, improved version of LEFM formulas for stress intensity factor, crack mouth opening displacement and crack opening displacement profile presented in the recent research work are incorporated. The results of the double-K fracture parameters obtained using revised procedure and the previous work of the authors is compared. The double-K fracture parameters of split-tension cube specimen are also compared with those obtained for standard three point bend test specimen. The input data required for determining double-K fracture parameters for both the specimen geometries for laboratory size specimens are obtained using well known version of the Fictitious Crack Model.

The bond characteristics of three different types of glass fiber reinforced polymer(GFRP) reinforcing bars with different surface deformations were studied experimentally. Each specimen consisted of a concrete prism, 150 by 150 mm on each edge, with the longer axis in the vertical direction. Two rebars were embedded in each specimen, perpendicular to the longer axis and parallel to and equidistant from the sides of the prism. In vertical direction, one rebar was located at 75 mm from the bottom of the prism, and the other 225 mm from the bottom. All testing procedures including specimens preparation, set-up of test equipments and measuring devices were made according to the recommendations of CSA Standard S806-02.It was found that the bottom reinforcements showed higher bond stress than that of the top rebars.
