The Hwangtoh is one of the traditional construction material used in wall, plastering material, and ondol (Korean underfloor heating system) with stone and wood. It is an important greenness material and it has much advantages such as; high storage of heat, auto-purification, antibiotic ability, and emission of far infrared rays. But, it is not developed and not used in modern construction because of its low strength and properties of dry shrinkage crack. According to the recent researches and studies, it is evaluated for natural pozzolanic material like flyash or pozzolan. It's possibility on construction material is high because it's chemical and mineralogical proportion is like as Metakaolin and Kaolinite. In this point of view, this study aims to analyze the physical properties on Hwangtoh mortar through an experiment with various activation condition of Hwangtoh, which is natural pozzolanic material, for the purpose of increase the using possibility in construction material.
