Eco Concrete Characterization using steel slag & ground granulated blast furnace slag as partial replacement of sand & cement respectively
There are plenty of industrial wastes used as partial replacement of coarse aggregate, cement and fine aggregate. This carries out a thorough assessment of industrial waste substances, which can be adequately utilized in concrete as fine aggregate and cement substitution. The waste products of the factory mainly steel slag and GGBFS is used and recycled for obtaining concrete of different requirements related to strength and durability. In this research, it is intended to examine the effect of steel slag and ground granulated blast furnace slag replacement for fine aggregate and cement respectively.The steel slag and ground granulated blast furnace slag is taken from the factory of reinforcement bars which is located around Akakikality sub-city, known as Akaki steel factory. The research additionally addresses X-ray diffraction, Scanning electron microscope techniques and chemical composition of major oxides and minor oxides of the blast furnace slag. The main objective of this research is to investigate the experimental aspect of partial replacing byproducts of steel slag and blast furnace slag on concrete production. It addresses the issue of a more expedite and urgent issue of our globalized world, climate change by replacing part of the concrete with these waste products. The followings are the main steps to carry out the research: Analysis of properties of materials used as the blast furnace slag and steel slag. Mix design of concrete using blast furnace slag and steel slag for replacement of cement and fine aggregate respectively. Find out the optimum replacement level of steel slag and blast furnace slag in concrete. The thesis puts forward an experimental based analysis to determine the extent to which the industrial waste materials play a role in partial replacement of cement and fine aggregate in concrete production. From the experiments demonstrated compressive, tensile and flexural strength of concrete is higher when GGBFS is replaced up to 5% of the cement and that of steel slag up to 30% of the sand.
