Abstract:

According to this paper we investigates that the possibility of utilizing granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) in cement concrete as a sand substitute, for reducing the environmental problems related to the fine aggregate mining and waste disposal of slag. The percentage of GGBS replacement is 0,5,10 and 15 % to natural sand for the standard w/c ratio of 0.4 is considered. The extended work is done with 100% replacements of natural sand with GGBS in the w/c ratios of 0.4 and 0.6.In this we studied theflow characteristics of the various mixes and their compressive strengths at various period. Demands for natural sand in concrete is increasing day by day. We undertakethis experimental study to investigate the influence of partial replacement of cement with ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) in concrete containing quarry dust as fine aggregate.GGBS is one of the by-product of steel manufacturing industries.On utilization of the industrial soil waste or secondary materials for the production of cement and concrete is encouraged in field of construction because it contribute to reducing the consumption of natural resources. By replacing the fine aggregate to find out the strength, durability and corrosion resistance properties of concrete. The penetration of chloride ions by means of impressed voltage technique in saline medium and gravimetric weight loss method.The replacement of fine aggregate by GGBSin the range of 0% (without GGBS), 5%, 10% and 15%.Concrete mixtures were mixed completely, tested and find out the compressive, flexural and split tensile strength are compared with the conventional concrete.
