  • The way to shorten a construction period is considered to an very important technology development element as reducing the formwork removal periods with promoting strength revelation own concrete. This study executed experiment to review usability of early strength revelation chemical admixture which is judged in ways effective with premature removal of form about concrete. Use of early strength revelation AE water reducin admixture is apperaing so that strength revelation by early hydration promotions is excellent. The results of being applied proposed work process are that compressive strength are appeared more than 5MPa within 16 hours so that removal of vertical form was possible. the concrete compressive strength satisfied with a more than 2/3 of specified concrete strength for removal of horizontal form are appeared in 42 hours of 27 MPa proportioning strength, in 36 hours of 30, 35 MPa proportioning strength so that the 6 days cycle time of concrete structural frame work is cut by 2 days as shortening delayed period in works of removing slab forms. So construction cost reductions and a construction period shortening are judged so that it is possible.

  • Antioxidant activity of the ethanol extract from boiled-water of Hizikia fusiformis (EBH) were compared with those of BHA, L-ascorbic acid, gallic acid, caffeic acid and (-)-catechin. The free radical scavenging ability against DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), authentic peroxynitrite and reducing power were measured as indices of antioxidant activity. EBH showed the potent DPPH radical and peroxynitrite scavenging activities, showing 85.23 and 96.97% at final concentration of $1000{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The reducing power increased with the increasing amount of EBH (final concentration of 1, 10, 100 and $1000{\mu}g/ml$). Total phenolic content of EBH was 588 mg (-)-catechin/g at the final concentration $1000{\mu}g/ml$. Total phenolic contents correlated with DPPH radical scavenging activity $(R^2=0.766)$ and reducing power $(R^2=0.944)$. These results suggested that EBH could be a natural antioxidative source containing antioxidative components.

  • This study attempted to set up reasonable extraction time of Omija that was put in water for the various components to soak out. Changes of free sugars, organic acids, reducing sugar, total acid and tannin in Omija with various extraction times were investigated (together with the analysis of each components in Omija fruit). 1. High Performance Liquid Chromatography showed fructose, glucose, and sucrose to be the major free sugars of the Omija fruit. Free sugars and reducing sugar value in Omija beverage increased gradually in according with the extraction time, and marked 75.6% per total free sugars and 82.1% per total reducing sugar at 12 hours. 2. Gas Chromatography showed lactic acid, oxalic acid, fumaric acid, levulinic acid, succinic acid, malic acid, citric acid and pyroglutamic acid to be the major organic acids of the Omija fruit. Organic acids and total acids value in Omija beverage increased gradually on proportion to extraction time, and marked 97.0% per total organic acids at 9 hours and 79.0% per total acids at 12 hours. 3. Tannin content in Omija beverage was increased when extraction time was longer but it showed a low percentage as compared with the reducing sugar and total acid. Tannin content marked 48.8% per total tannin at 12 hours. 4. Sensory evaluation revealed that !1 hours of extraction produced the best quality products based in taste, flavor, color and over-all acceptability, considering the data, it seems possible to conclude that the optimum of time for extraction of Omija to water is 9 hours.

  • The efficacy of ozone micro-bubble water (OMBW) in reducing microbial populations on alfalfa seeds was investigated in this study. We observed the surface of alfalfa seeds using microscopy and found that many cracks and crevices existing on the surface could harbor pathogens. Alfalfa seeds were treated with tap water (TW), micro-bubble water (MBW), ozone water (OW), ozone micro-bubble water (OMBW), and chlorine water (CL) for 5 min, and total microbial population, E. coli and Salmonella spp. colonies were determined. Also, the sterilized seeds were germinated and cultivated for 5 d after sowing to investigate the percentage of germination and the growth of alfalfa sprouts. The treatments with OMBW and CL were most effective in reducing total microbial populations and E. coli was eliminated by OW, OMBW, and CL treatments. CL treatment reduced the percentage of germination and fresh weight of alfalfa sprouts, but OMBW did not cause any negative effects on the germination and growth of alfalfa sprouts. These results indicate that OMBW can be used as an effective sanitizer for eliminating seed-borne pathogens without detrimental effects on seed viability.

  • Recently the ground-water development using the ground-water dam was proposed for the efficient use of the limited water resources especially for islands or seaside area. But in operating the ground-water dam adjacent to seaside an excessive pumping causes the sea-water intrusion which is caused by the drawdown of ground-water level. In this study, the effect of the recharging well method to reduce the sea-water intrusion was evaluated, and was applied to the downstream of the Ssangcheon ground-water dam site. The SUTRA model was used to simulate the salinity transport in the unsaturated and saturated zone. As the results, the effect of recharging method on the downstream of the ground-water dam was proven to be very efficient to reduce the salinity in the pumping well, and especially the best result was shown at the case that the recharging well is located at 40∼60m from the cutoff wall and the recharging rate is up to 6∼7%.

  • This study investigated the fundamental properties and shrinkage properties of high performance concrete with water/binder ratio of 0, 30 and with combination of expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent. According to the results, the fluidity of high performance concrete showed lower the using method in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent than the separately using method of that, so the amount of superplasticizer increased when the adding ratio of expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent increased. However the air content of concrete increased when used in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent, so the amount of AE agent decreased. The compressive strength showed the highest at 5% of expansive additive, and decreased with an increase of the amount of shrinkage reducing agent. Furthermore, in order to reduce the shrinkage of high performance concrete, it was found that the using method in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent was more effective than separately using method of that. Autogenous shrinkage was predicted using JCI model. Because JCI model is unable to consider the effect of EA and SRA, correction factor should be added to enhance the accuracy.

  • In this paper, the structure-fluid coupled analysis is carried out in order to examine the cause of the vibration induced by fluid in the pressure-reducing valves for water. It is confirmed that there is the noise at the area of low frequency of 250Hz by measuring noise at pressure reducing valve. The flow analysis is performed by the commercial software ANSYS/CFX. The flow velocity of about 40 m/s is formed by nozzle effect, and so negative pressure is happened in the pressure reducing valve. The structure analysis is carried out with the load condition of pressure distribution by flow formed in valve. The rubber material at disk is deformed to the extent of closing up flow passage. It is confirmed that the disc deformation which is occurred repeatedly is due to noise and vibration at the pressure reducing valve.

  • Concrete is cheap, easy to deal with, and the quality is satisfactory. Also, it is one of the easiest materials to get because chemical composition of cement is similar to chemical composition of surface. On the other hand, it is so vulnerable to transform because of weak binding capacity and low binding energy that it produces cracks. Cracks decline durability, usability, safety of structures and damage exterior. In order to decline drying shrinkage crack, this study used shrinkage reducing typed Superplasticizer, which is combination of and water-reducing agent for convenience, different with existing study using AE agent, water-reducing agent, shrinkage reducing agent,. Considering SRS field application possibility, this study planned to mix concrete and mortar generally used in ready-mixed concrete company and did basic experiment depending on a change of SRS content ratio and admixture. Based on the experiment result. It is judged that SRS admixture 2% is proper ratio when Given the intensity and length change. Also mass combination will conduct follow-up studies.
