Concrete masonry prisms are strengthened with steel fiber-reinforced mortar (SFRM) overlay and tested for compressive and diagonal tension strength. Masonry prisms are produced in poor condition considering standard workmanship for masonry buildings in Korea. Amorphous steel fibers are adopted for SFRM, and appropriate mixing ratios of SFRM are derived considering constructability and strength. Masonry prisms are strengthened with different fiber volume ratios, while numerous strengthened faces and additional reinforcing meshes are produced for compression and diagonal tension tests. Compression and diagonal tension strength are increased by up to 122% and 856%, respectively, and the enhancement effect for diagonal tension strength was superior compared to compression strength. Finally, the test results and strength prediction equations based on existing literature and regression analysis are compared.

Nonlinear static analysis and preliminary evaluation were performed in this study to evaluate the seismic performance of unreinforced masonry buildings subjected to various soil conditions based on the revised Korean Building Code. Preliminary evaluation scores and nonlinear static analyses indicated that all buildings were susceptible to collapse and did not reach their target performance. Therefore, retrofit of those building models was carried out through a systematic procedure to determine areas to be strengthened. It was possible to make most building models satisfy performance objectives through the reinforcement alone of damaged external shear walls. However, the application of a preliminary evaluation procedure to retrofit design was found to be too conservative because all the retrofitted building models verified with nonlinear static analysis failed to satisfy performance objectives. Therefore, it is possible to economically retrofit unreinforced masonry buildings through the fortification of external walls if a simple evaluation procedure that can efficiently specify vulnerable parts is developed.

This study investigated the possible use of enzymatically hydrolyzed isolated soy protein (eHISP) to enhance the intensity of salty taste. The sodium chloride content of eHISP is 69.5 g/L. Yellowness (b) increased, and lightness (L) and redness (a) decreased with increasing eHISP concentration in sample solution. Also, perceived salty intensity of eHISP solution increased in sample solution with increasing added amount of eHISP with same NaCl concentration. The intensity of the salty taste was enhanced by 2-39% as the eHISP was added. The results suggest that it may be possible to reduce the content of sodium chloride in foods by enhancing the salty taste with eHISP.

The purpose of this experimental study is to increase the strength of mortar mixed with activated Hwang-Toh (AHT) and granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) as a compound for the development of eco-friendly concrete. The compressive strength test was carried out by making mortar specimens with a certain ratio of AHT and GGBS. The percentage of AHT were at 30% and 50% and the GGBS were a 40% and 50% as Major variables. The results of this study showed that for specimens with percentage of AHT at 30% with GGBS increased above the strength of the mortar without the binding. However, the compressive strength of experimentation with percentage of AHT at 50% with partially replace GGBS has decreased by more than the mortar without the binding. Therefore, further study is deemed necessary.

Soil-Cement is an outstanding paving material, as it is economic, easy to construct and environmental-friendly due to its usage of natural soil. However, compared to current methods of paving, soil-cement shows low strength and low resistance on cracking, so it is necessary to supplement those drawbacks by use of some admixtures. This paper attempts to take an in-depth study of material characteristics of soil-cement mixtures with rice husk ash which is discarded as waste to enhance the strength and durability of soil-cement. To figure that out, XRF analysis was performed. From the XRF analysis results of the chemical content in rice husk ash, SiO2 is contained as much as 64.85%. Though SiO2 content is major in the rice husk ash, it is less than the amount expected. It is due to incineration temperature and time away from ideal environment for maximum SiO2 content. In addition, it figured out the strength property and durability of rice husk ash added soil-cement mixture by compressive strength test. The compressive strength test of soil-cement mixtures showed the highest strength with 10% of rice husk ash added. This suggests rice husk ash has high potential as one of pozzolanic materials.

흙시멘트는 자연토를 사용하여 경제적이고 시공이 간단하며 환경 친화적인 우수한 포장재료이다. 그러나 흙시멘트가 기존의 도로포장 방법들에 비하여 큰 강도를 가지지 못하였기 때문에 흙시멘트의 강도 증진을 위하여 우수한 강도발현과 균열에 대한 저항성을 향상시킬 수 있는 혼화재 연구도 활발히 진행되었다. 우리나라에서 생산되는 벼의 양은 연평균 730만 톤에 이르며, 이러한 벼로부터 생산되는 왕겨의 약 95% 이상이 가축분뇨의 수분흡수를 위한 축산시설의 깔개 등의 저부가가치 목적으로 활용되고 있다. 이는 왕겨를 축사의 깔개로 이용 후 퇴비화함에 따라 농지 내 왕겨 환원속도가 부식속도보다 빨라 토양내의 미부식 왕겨가 누적되어 농지 내 토양환경을 열악하게 하는 등 환경에 미치는 악영향도 상당히 심각하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 부가가치가 낮은 현행의 왕겨 소비 형태에서 벗어나 더 나은 부가가치를 창출할 수 있는 콘크리트용 혼화재료로서의 왕겨 활용 가능성을 파악하고자 하였다. 흙시멘트 포장의 균열에 대한 저항성을 높이기 위한 기본 재료로 SBR 라텍스(Styrene-Butadiene Rubber Latex)를 사용하였으며, 여기에 소성왕겨를 첨가한 흙시멘트 혼합물의 역학적 성능과 공용 성능을 실내실험을 통해 평가하여, 소성왕겨가 첨가된 흙시멘트 혼합물의 재료 특성에 대해 연구하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 흙시멘트의 강도 증진과 내구성 향상을 위한 혼화재료로서 소성왕겨를 활용할 경우 흙시멘트 혼합물이 갖는 재료 특성에 대해서 알아보고자 하였다. 일축압축강도 시험을 통해 소성왕겨 혼입 흙시멘트의 강도 발현 특성과 내구성을 확인하고자 하였으며, 흙시멘트 혼합물의 일축압축강도 시험 결과, 소성왕겨를 10% 첨가했을 때가 가장 높은 강도를 보이고 있다.

세계적인 고유가의 영향으로 석유 소비가 높은 산업의 생산성은 현저히 저하되었다. 고강도 PHC 파일 중 AC 방식은 2차례의 증기양생 공정을 거쳐 제조되고 있으며, 이는 제품의 제조원가에 심각한 상승을 초래하고 있다. 다른 형식의 파일 제조 공정인 NAC 방식은 1차례의 증기양생을 함으로써 제조 원가가 절감되는 장점이 있지만, 초기 강도가 AC 방식보다 저하되기 때문에 약3일 정도의 양생기간을 거쳐 출하되고 있으며, 양생기간에 따른 제품 재고의 증가를 피할 수 없으므로 이는 제조원가 상승의 요인으로 작용하고 있다. AC 방식은 양생 직후, 즉시 출하되며 현장 도입 (항타현장 등) 시 파손 등의 문제가 발생되지 않으나, NAC의 경우는 최소 3일의 양생기간을 거쳐 강도 80 MPa이상을 발현 후 현장에 출하된다. 따라서, NAC는 종류별 적정 재고유지 비용의 증가와 강도부족 시 현장에서 파손이 발생되는 문제점을 안고 있다. 본 연구에서는 NAC 방식의 PHC 파일에 대하여 AC 방식과 동등한 1일 강도를 발현하기 위한 배합특성 연구를 수행하였고, 원재료 변화에 따른 강도 특성도 파악하였다.

In this paper, estimation of the compressive strength of the concrete incorporating blast furnace slag subjected to high temperature was discussed. Ordinary Portland cement and blast furnace slag cement (BSC;30% of blast furnace slag) were used, respectively. Water to binder ratio ranging from 30% to 60% and curing temperature ranging from 20℃～65℃ were also chosen for the experimental parameters, respectively. At the high temperature, BSC had higher strength development at early age than OPC concrete and it kept its high strength development at later age due to accelerated latent hydration reaction subjected to high temperature. For the strength estimation, the Logistic model based on maturity equation and the Carino model based on equivalent age were applied to verify the availability of estimation model. It was found that fair agreements between calculated values and measured values were obtained evaluating compressive strength with logistic curve. The application of logistic model at high temperature had remarkable deviations in the same maturity. Whereas, the application of Carino model showed good agreements between calculated values and measured ones regardless of type of cement and W/B. However, some correction factors should be considered to enhance the accuracy of strength estimation of concrete.
