Experimental Investigation on Fully Replacement of Steel Slag as Course Aggregate in M30 Grade Concrete

Abstract

Slag is co-product of the iron and steel making process. The use of steel slag reduces the need of natural rock as constructional material, hence preserving our natural rock resources, maximum utilization and recycling of by-products and recovered waste materials for economic and environmental reasons has led to rapid development of slag utilization. The use of steel aggregate in concrete by replacing natural aggregates is a most promising concept. An attempt was made to replace coarse aggregate with the steel slag. When it was cut to a required size of 20 mm and less. This steel slag with different percentage of 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, was tested for partial replacement of coarse aggregate for M30 grade concrete. The compressive strength of steel slag with 25% replacement was found to have 40.4 N/mm2 at the end of 28 days Which is marginal to the conventional concrete. The split tensile strength of fuel dispenser hose pipe with 10% replacement was 5N/mm2 at the end of 28 days which is more than conventional concrete. The flexural strength of fuel dispenser hose pipe with 10% replacement was 5N/mm2 at the end of 28 days which is more than conventional concrete. Hence 10% of fuel dispenser can be replaced for coarse aggregate in cement concrete.
