PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF CEMENT BY GGBS IN CEMENT CONCRETE

Abstract

Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag is a by-product waste generated while producing iron. It is off white in colour and has similar cementitious properties like cement. Thus use of supplement materials is good for environment as manufacturing cement liberates a lot of carbon-dioxide. Hence, there is a constant search for supplement material. This article is all about study of compressive strength of M30 concrete (Design mix) prepared from Ordinary Portland cement (Dalmia) 53 garde, partially replaced by GGBS in 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% proportions and further comparisons will be done.
