PURPOSES: This paper, presents the results of a laboratory study aimed to verify the suitability of a particular type of Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) steel slag to be recycled in the lithic skeleton of both dense graded and porous asphalt mixtures for flexible pavements. METHODS : Cyclic creep and stiffness modulus tests were performed to evaluate the mechanical performance of three different asphalt mixtures (dense graded, porous asphalt, and stone mastic) prepared with two types of EAF steel slag. For comparison purposes, the same three mixtures were also designed with conventional aggregates (basalt and limestone). RESULTS : All the asphalt mixtures prepared with EAF steel slag satisfied the current requirements of the European standards, which support EAF steel slag as a suitable material for flexible pavement construction. CONCLUSIONS : Based on the experimental work, the use of waste material obtained from steel production (e.g. EAF steel slag) as an alternative in the lithic skeleton of asphalt mixtures can be a satisfactory and reasonable choice that fulfills the “Zero Waste”objective that many iron and steel industries have pursued in the past decades.

콘크리트의 수축현상은 체적 변화를 발생시키며 균열의 원인이 되어 구조물 내구성 및 안정성에 영향을 미친다. 콘크리트의 수축 에 영향을 미치는 요인은 매우 다양하며, 특히 골재는 시멘트 페이스트의 변형을 구속하여 수축 발생을 억제하기 때문에 골재의 특성은 수축 현상에서 중요하게 고려하여야 하는 부분이다. 한편, 골재 부족 현상으로 인해 천연 골재 대체재 개발 및 적용에 대한 연구가 다방면으로 진행되고 있으며 콘크리트용 골재로 사용 되는 재료도 점차 다양해지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전기로 산화 슬래그를 굵은 골재로 사용한 콘크리 트의 수축 특성을 평가하기 위해 수축 실험을 진행하였으며, 실험 결과와 수축 예측 모델을 비교하여 기존 예측 모델의 적용성을 검토하였다. 실험 결과, 전기로 산화 슬래그를 굵은 골재로 사용함에 따라 수축량이 감소하는 결과가 나타났으며, 특히 자기수축 저감 효과가 크게 나타났다. 예측 모델과의 비교 시 건조수축과 자기수축 각각 GL2000 모델과 Tazawa 모델이 가장 유사한 예측값을 나타냈으나, 보다 정확한 예측을 위해서는 골재 및 혼화재의 물성을 고려할 수 있도록 보완이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

첨단산업의 발전으로 재활용이 어려운 산업부산물의 발생량이 증가하고 있으며, 건설산업에서는 골재 수급이 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 중금속이 함유된 폐브라운관 유리를 잔골재로 100% 대체하고 전기로 산화슬래그를 굵은골재로 대체한 콘크리트의 감마선 차폐효율을 진단하여, 산업폐기물로 납과 철의 함유량을 높인 콘크리트의 차폐콘크리트 적용성을 검토하였다. 연구 결과, 일반 굵은골재를 사용한 콘크리트보다 반가층이 감소하는 경향을 나타냈으며, 중금속을 함유한 산업폐기물의 적용으로 고밀도의 콘크리트 제조가 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 일반 굵은골재와 더불어 전기로산화슬래그를 굵은골재로 대체하였을 때, 초기재령시기에 동결피해를 입은 콘크리트의 압축강도 특성을 평가하였다. 실험결과, 초기 재령시기에 동결 피해를 입었을 때, 전기로산화슬래그를 굵은골재로 혼입한 콘크리트의 경우에 압축강도 발현율이 일반 굵은골재를 사용한 콘크리트의 경우보다 더 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, the fundamental properties of concrete using industrial waste as aggregate were evaluated. The concrete specimens were prepared using the steel slag as coarse aggregate and heavyweight waste glass. It was found that when the electric arc furnace slag substitution ratio increased, air contents and density also increase. However, the slump is decreased with an increase in the substitution ratio of electric arc furnace slag.

본 논문은 전기로 산화슬래그 골재를 사용하여 콘크리트를 제작하여 물리적 성능을 평가하였다. 실험은 전기로 산화슬래그 골재를 치환하여(잔골재-굵은골재) 0%-0%, 0%-100%, 50%-100%, 100%-100%으로 각 4수준으로 일반강도영역 W/C 45%와 고강도영역인 W/C 30% 의 2수준으로 제작하여 진행하였다. 굳지 않은 콘크리트에서는 공기량, 플로우 및 슬럼프, 단위용적질량 실험을 진행하였으며, 경화 콘크리트 에서는 압축강도 및 휨강도, 단위용적질량 실험을 통하여 물리적 특성을 검토하였다. 본 연구의 실험결과 전기로 산화슬래그의 혼입량이 증가 함에 따라 콘크리트의 강도 증진 효과가 나타났으며, 이는 전기로 산화슬래그 골재 내에 β-C2S로 인하여 골재 내외부에서 강도 증진 효과를 발 휘한 것으로 사료된다.

As the amount of slag generated annually increases, attempts to recycle slag as high value products are underway in order to develop an efficient resource recycling industry based on slag and derive economic benefits as well. However, the application of electric arc furnace (EOS) slag as construction material is practically limited because of the unstable substances included in it, such as free CaO.(EOS contains a small amount of free CaO, but several limitations still exist. Slag is stored for more than 3 months depending on the quantity of slag, which leads to additional economic loss. In this study, the amount of free CaO present in EOS is quantitatively evaluated to examine its qualities as a potential construction material and verify its application as concrete material. The quantitative analysis of free CaO present in EOS is performed using ethylene glycol. The free CaO contents of EOS samples were found to be below 0.5%. This satisfies the criteria specified in KS F 4571, which states that the CaO content should be below 40% and CaO/SiO2 ratio should be below 2.0. In addition, it was confirmed that free CaO content difference appears to be dependent on the aging period and storage position.

CO2 emitted from building materials and construction materials industry reaches about 67 million tons, which occupy about 30% of CO2 emitted from the construction field. Controls on the use of consumed fossil fuels and reduction of emission gases are essential for the reduction of CO2 in the construction area as we reduce the second and third curing to emit CO2 in the construction materials industry. Accordingly, this study applied the low energy curing admixture (hereinafter “LA”) to the extruded panels to observe the physical properties, depending on the mixing amount of fiber, type of fiber and mixing ratio of fiber. The type of fiber did not appear to be a main factor to affect strength, while the LA mixing ratio and mixing amount of fiber appeared to be major factors to affect strength. Especially, the highest strength was developed when the LA mixing ratio was 40%, whereas the test object with the mixing ratio of 50% resulted in the decrease of strength. In addition, it appeared that the mixing ratio of fiber greatly affected flexural strength and strength increased as the mixing ratio increased.

This laboratory study showed the performance evaluations of a improved C12A7 based mineral accelerator (I-CA) by both mortar and shotcrete tests. Performance of I-CA as a shotcrete accelerator was excellent by KCI-SC-102, which is a Korean specifications of shotcrete accelerator. In addition, I-CA showed equal qualities to the setting time and the compressive strength when compared those of the existing C12A7 based mineral accelerator (CA). The I-CA was manufactured with 40wt.% of electric arc furnace reducing slag, 24wt.% of lime, and 36wt.% of bauxite, indicating that the commercialization of I-CA contributed to recycle electric arc furnace reducing slag and to reduce the manufacturing cost of C12A7 based mineral accelerator due to the use a cheap raw material(electric arc furnace reducing slag), and to reduce the greenhouse gas emission due to the reductions in usage of lime and bauxite.

Carbon dioxide generated from construction materials and construction material industry among the fields ofconstruction is approximately 67million tons. It is about 30% of the carbon dioxide generated in the fields of construction.In order to reduce carbon dioxide in the fields of construction, it is necessary to control the use of fossil fuel consumedand decrease carbon emission by reducing the secondary and tertiary curing generating carbon dioxide in constructionmaterial industry. Therefore, this study produced an extrusion panel by using cement as the base materials and substitutingbinding materials up to 40% to analyze strength characteristics. According to the results of strength characteristics bythe replacement binder (Low energy curing Admixture) showed an apparent active strength improvement. In particular,specimens substituting binder as 45% indicated the greatest strength improvement. When binding materials was used withsubstitution, it showed strength characteristics similar or higher than specimens made from tertiary autoclave curing assecondary steam curing.

In this study, the concrete compressive strength test conducted according to the replacement ratio of electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag. As higher substitution rate of the electronic arc furnace oxidizing slag aggregates, early concrete compressive strength development is effective and the higher the concrete compressive strength as too.

Blast furnace slag is recycled as high value-added material, while steel slag is difficult to recycle or is recycled as low value-added one relatively due to its expansion collapsability. It's property is caused by the high content of Free-CaO and unstable steel oxides. Currently, a technique to subdivide the process refining is introduced, can be divided into the electric furnace steel slag and reducing steel slag. In this study, Free-CaO in the electric arc furnace slag by the ethylene glycol method for the quantitative evaluation for the expansion to proceed with construction materials, electric arc furnace slag oxidation is to use.

Replacement aggregate source like as electric arc furnace slag will be important more and more in the domestic construction field. Recently KS F 4715 was revised in order to utilize electric arc furnace slag as concrete aggregate. However, stability for an actual structure has not been confirmed sufficiently. Therefore, more careful attention should be paid on the quality management of slag aggregate. To evaluate the volume stability of electric arc furnace slag, a method of immersion expansion for evaluating road aggregate has been used. These conventional method needs long time, so there are many demands from industry for fast testing method. This paper is intended to evaluate whether the acceleration test method in the hydro thermal condition is proper or not, and find the correlations between the volume expansion and oxide compounds of slag aggregate. The test results indicates that the acceleration test method has sufficient possibility as a way of evaluating the safety of electric arc furnace slag, and that there is no correlations between the volume expansion of mortar bar with slag aggregate and the oxide compositions of slag aggregate, but the main cause of the pop-out phenomenon is the MgO content of slag aggregate.
