The carbonation rate coefficient of the medium heat Portland cement with fly ash was studied in both accelerated and natural exposure test conditions. The coefficient of the cement was higher than that of ordinary Portland cement (N cement) by 1.5 to 2.0 times under accelerated test conditions when water to binder ratio was 60%, but it was nearly the same with that of N cement under out door exposure test conditions. The cement factor (α2) of the cement was calculated to be 1.1 and the environment related factor (β3) was to be 3.5 according to the carbonation rate coefficient equations by the AIJ durability design recommendation.

This paper deals with the estimation method of joint mortar strength in CB masonry with scratch for the quality control. According to the test results, it was found the correlation between strength and width of scratch. The test results also showed that the surface roughness and the moisture content in joint affected the width of scratch. The width was increased with increase of the moisture content and the surface roughness. Water absorption amount of CB from mortar depended on the mortar type, CB type and joint width and it was found that mortar strength was reduced by water absorption of CB. Finally, we proposed an estimation method for joint mortar strength using the scratch test and quality control method on the basis of these results.

It is very important for structural design to estimate the response displacement of the structures for the input earthquakes. For that purpose, static analysis is to be used because of its simplicity and practicality though dynamic response analysis might be most suitable approach to prescribe the actual characteristics of structures. Present paper proposes the design load which is used in the static analysis and can approximate dynamic maximum response displacement of the objective structure. In order to predict such static design load distribution, genetic algorithm is utilized together with dynamic elasto-plastic analysis of simple models.

The propose of this investigation was to determine the distribution of bond stress between plain round bars and low strength concrete from cyclic pull-out testing. Considered main parameter was the length of embedment bars in this paper. From the test results, tensile stress and bond stress distribution of the embedded bar were obtained. The location of the peak bond stress shifted from the loaded end toward the unloaded end of the bars with increasing applied load. When tensile load decreased to zero the residual stress was occurred in the bar. In addition, even though the applied load was reversed, bond stress distribution along the bar was still constant.
