Performance Analysis of Sustainable Concrete Mixes Using Waste Slag
Ferrochrome and steel slag are massive by-products of the steel industry. The crucial learning from this investigation is that these slags can be an alternate material for aggregates, which can reduce negative impacts on the environment. This document intends to study experimentally the fresh and hardened properties of concrete prepared by using different combinations among fine aggregate, steel slag, and ferrochrome slag. 50% of fine aggregate is kept constant, and rest is considered with few combinations between steel slag and ferrochrome slag. Percentages of steel slag are taken in a range decreasing from 50 to 0% at an interval of 10% along with a combination with ferrochrome slag increasing from 0 to 50% at an interval of 10%. It is observed that a combination of 30% steel slag and 20% ferrochrome slag gives the ideal value of compressive and split tensile strength. 50% alternation of fine aggregate by steel slag only provides the best value of flexural strength.
