GROUND GRANULATED BLAST-FURNACE SLAG AS A CEMENTITIOUS CONSTITUENT IN CONCRETE

The use of iron blast-furnace slag as a concrete, either as an aggregate or as a cementitious material, or both, is well known. The use of ground granulated blast-furnace (GGBF) slag in the production of blended cements began in 1905 in the United States. Recent attention has been given to the use of GGBF slag as a separate cementitious constituent of concrete. This report primarily addresses the use of GGBF slag as a separate cementitious material added along with portland cement in the production of concrete.
