Parametric Experimental Studies of Mortar Incorporating Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) and Silica Fume
Because of global warming and carbon emission, sustainable development has always been in demand for many decades. Different manufacturing industries are increasingly developing sophisticated technology even while dealing with waste disposal challenges. Environmental pollution is induced by multiple sectors’ waste management problems. Concrete production is made possible by replacing cement with numerous manufacturing wastes, and efforts are made to mitigate environmental emissions and waste management concepts. The use of industrial waste in concrete is now being introduced to provide the best option for the environment and the infrastructure field to produce sustainable concrete. In present study, different percentage of industrial waste like ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and silica fume is utilized for mortar production. Physical parameters like consistency, initial and final setting time, soundness, fineness, pozzolanic strength index and compressive strength of mortar were examined. To find out optimum replacement of wastes in place of cement, 10–50% GGBFS was used along with 5–20% silica fume in mortar preparation. The outcomes of this investigation were found to be satisfactory, showing that the mortar with the appropriate waste replacement enhances physical properties.
