  • Recently, in the trend of using aggregate, it is common that coarse aggregate is replaced with crushed stone and fine aggregate is replaced with sea sand as a replacing aggregate. In this study, to judge the adaptability of using antiwashout underwater concrete, we used mixed sand (river sand : sea sand= 5 : 5) and changed W/C. After carrying out the research on the strength development of the compressive strength of specimen, tensile strength, fluxural strength which is produced and cured in the air and salt water, we founded that when W/C was low and the amount of AWA and SP were increased, the state of strength development was excellent.

  • Epoxy-mortar composites have been wildly used as finishing and repairing materials in the construction because of their excellent properties. Conventional epoxy-mortars and concretes have an inferior applicability and cost performance ratio due to the two component mixing of the epoxy resin and hardener. In this study, we examined the engineering effect of compressive strength and flexible strength according to the various epoxy-hardener in underwater and humidity environment, and evaluated the hardener types and physical effect of Epoxy mortar using cement binder in underwater and air condition. In this study, it was clarified that the engineering properties of repairing epoxy-motars were effected by the type of hardener.

  • This study evaluated the buildability and mechanical properties of 3DP concrete printed in air and underwater environments. Buildability was evaluated by green strength test on fresh concrete and height and deflection immediately and 1 hour after printing. The green compressive strength of the concrete was 5.0 kPa after 30 minutes and 7.9 kPa after 3 hours, an increase of 1.6 times the initial strength. The total height of the laminated parts met the design height regardless of the printing environment. The amount of deflection in air and under water 1 hour after printing was 1 mm and 0.2 mm, respectively, indicating a small amount of deflection under water. The apparent density of the sample appeared in the order of A-M > A-P > UW-P. This is believed to be because a large amount of air is mixed into the concrete during the printing process, and water infiltrates during the underwater printing process. The compressive strength ratio of UW-P/A-P was 0.86 at 1 day, but the compressive strength of the underwater printed concrete was high from 7 days.

  • In this research, the mix proportion of the antiwashout underwater concrete with the mineral admixture was evaluated. It can reduce the amount used of the antiwashout admixture (hereinafter referred to as "AWA") and satisfy the properties of concrete. In addition, the review for the difference of the test and practical affairs were conducted. Optimized unit quantity of water of antiwashout underwater concrete and the amount used of AWA was revealed by $190kg/m^3$, 0.9%/W, respectively. In particularly, the mix design is reduced by 5% than the W/B of target strength even though the W and AWA reduced. Therefore, it will have the economical feasibility and qualities including the material separation, resistance characteristic and compressive strength, and etc. The stable value was shown in 1 point of minute passed in the measurement of the turbidity amounts using the turbidimeter after the checker insertion. However, it needs to be reviewed for the interrelationship between turbidity measuring machine and KCI-AD102 standard method. There were no significant differences of compressive strength of specimens in the water depending on the production methods.

  • Korea has many underwater cultural heritages within the east, west and south seas surrounding the Peninsula that indicate historically important sealanes for trade and transportation. As these underwater cultural heritages are the objects of despoilment because of their relatively easy access through modern technology, their often high historical and priceless value demands strong protection similar to or better than the land cultural properties. Currently, Korea does not have any concrete laws or regulations for the protection of underwater cultural heritages. Thus, these heritages iu, somewhat temporary and inappropriately subjected to laws and regulations relating to provisions of individual Laws concerning protection of cultural properties act, and statute of excavation of material fir buried national property, lost articles act etc.. Internationally, the UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage was adopted but not yet entered into force. Therefore, the protection of underwater cultural heritage has become an urgent matter. In this regard, this article's main purpose is to provide recommendations for improving direction of legal regime and policy for protecting our underwater cultural heritages. These legal regimes need provisions for definition of the underwater cultural heritage, scope of application, ownerships, jurisdictions and protection measures. And suggestions are provided in regard to policies for the protection of underwater cultural heritages that may improve organization and cooperation among concerned ministries and agencies, compensation system, restrictions for excavation of underwater relics, efficiency of survey of underwater surface and information system.

  • An evaluation of underwater - repair coating materials was based on the premise that defective areas of the existent epoxy coating such as blistering and cracking will be repaired on spot under submerged condition. Tests include the clarification as to whether they are compatible between as-built coating and new repair coating on each concrete specimen. Candidate coating materials for repair were tested in a laboratory to scrutinize their suitability to perform the needed function satisfactorily. The qualification tests performed are as a minimum as follows: Integrated radiation tolerance test, chemical resistance test (submerged condition in deionized water), hardness test and adhesion test of the repair materials. The proper repair coating materials were selected and approved from this test results.

  • The purpose of this study is analyze the properties of undispersed concrete according to replacement of the ratio of fly-ash. The test results show that as the ratio of flyash replacement which increasing fluidity but the amounts of air content, suspended solid and pH values dicreased and setting time is delayed. The ten persent replacment of fly-ash has less water pollution and high compressive strength value than other ratio of fly-ash replacement.
