Recent earthquakes in Gyeong-ju and Po-hang have raised concerns about the safety of nuclear power plant structures. In particular, there is a demand for a technique for detecting and evaluating the deterioration that occurs in the concrete which is inaccessible after curing. In this paper, we propose a method for evaluating the reliability of concrete detection equipment using ultrasound, as the ultrasonic tomography technique has been attracting much attention with the detection technique of the inside of concrete.

Based on the study of strength development characteristics of Ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBFS), it was found that the use of GGBFS as a admixture was advantageous in terms of long-term strength. Therefore, GGBFS can be a replacement for the Flyash which is currently used in the NPP.
