(PDF) Effect of nickel slag as a sand replacement in …

Due to the different specific gravity between sand and nickel slag, in which nickel slag is heavier than sand, the total volume of concrete containing nickel slag will decrease. Therefore, other materials such as cement, coarse aggregate, and water will compensate to obtain 1 m3 of the total volume of concrete containing nickel slag.

Slag Substitution as a Cementing Material in Concrete: …

The results of the leaching tests of concrete mixtures with slag are similar to the results of traditional concrete. Therefore, slag encapsulation into the concrete seems to be a good strategy to manage this waste product, instead of it being deposited in landfills where it will pollute the environment by leaching.

Utilization of ground granulated blast furnace slag as partial …

The effect of replacing 20–70 % of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) by ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) on the mechanical properties, weight loss and carbon footprint of oil palm shell concrete (OPSC) has been investigated. The highest replacement level of 70 % of OPC with GGBS was found to have significant effect on …

Study on properties of concrete using slag as partial replacement …

The use of waste items like silica fume, fly ash and ground-granulated blast furnace slag as a partial replacement for cement used in concrete has been considered a sustainable approach in the construction industry [13]. The amount of carbon dioxide gas emitted will be significantly reduced when GGBS is used in place of Portland cement.

The concrete mixes were designed based on the ACI 211.1-91 (reapproved 2009) [40], as shown in Table 3.The reference concrete, named OPC, was made with Portland cement and the designed w/b ratio was 0.42, assuming that full hydration can be achieved based on the Powers-Brownyard model [20].GGBS replacement levels …

Effect of nickel slag as a sand replacement in strength

This research investigates the use of nickel slag as the replacement of sand in concrete. Various concrete samples were produced with the increasing nickel slag content from 0% to 50% every 10%. A water-cement-ratio of 0.35 was chosen in this study. Concrete mixes were assessed for their compressive strength and workability.

Study of Granulated Blast Furnace Slag as Fine Aggregates in Concrete …

The use of granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) aggregates in concrete by replacement of natural aggregates is very promising concept because its impact strength is quite more than natural aggregate. Steel slag aggregates are already being used as aggregates in asphalt paving road m due to their mechanical strength, stiffness, …

Experimentation on triple-blended concrete with manufactured sand

Concrete has become a versatile material by adapting itself to user needs, from pavers to skyscrapers. Escalated demand for concrete is the prime reason for the exploitation of resources and increased carbon emissions.
