This paper involves the mix design procedure for normal strength concrete with slag replacement levels of 15%, 30% and 45%. The test results showed that the differences in the compressive strength of the concrete cast by proportions arrived from the conventional mix design and corrected mix design
01/01/2013#0183;#32;Commercially available viscosity modifying agent (VMA) was also used. As an example, the design procedure is explained for a SCC with design strength of 90 MPa and a cement replacement level of 40%. Table 2. Mix details of the concretes developed. S. no Concrete grade (MPa) Name TCM (kg/m 3) Slag (%) Cement (kg/m 3) (k 28) Slag (g) (kg/m 3) Total aggregate (kg/m 3) Water (kg/m 3)
#0183;#32;So, concrete mix design can be stated as Concrete Mix = Cement:Sand:Aggregates. The concrete mix design involves various steps, calculations and laboratory testing to find right mix proportions. This process is usually adopted for structures which requires higher grades of concrete such as M25 and above and large construction projects where quantity of concrete consumption is huge..
M. Glavind, in Sustainability of Construction Materials, 2009. Abstract: This chapter contains information about sustainability issues relating to concrete from a life cycle perspective, with a special focus on cement and cement replacement life cycle of concrete includes the production of raw materials for concrete, production of concrete and optimisation of the mix design
Using Nan Su Method for Mix Design of Self Compacting Concrete the amount of materials to be added were calculated and are mentioned in below Table 2. Using the above proportions the fine aggregate (sand) was replaced by granite powder and cement was replaced with GGBS completely, additionally 4% of the GGBS content was added with three different chemicals (4% of Na Content) used for binding

Mortar is a mixture of cement, sand and water and normally being used as wall finishing and bricklaying binder. The additional of GGBS being integrated with the cement mortar mix to enhance the strength of the building element. Appropriate mixture proportions and mixing procedures are in the range of 10% to 40% of GGBS in the cement mortar. The
17/05/2017#0183;#32;Concrete mix design is the procedure for finding the right quantities of these materials to achieve the desired strength. Accurate concrete mix design makes concrete construction economical. Large constructions such as Bridges, dams requires huge amount of concrete, using the right quantity of constituents make the structure economical. In order to calculate or find the right amount of cement
In particular, GGBS is considered to be more compatible with renewable energy source objectives. The replacement level of GGBS can be as high as 70% of cement, which is about twice as much of PFA (typically replacement level is 40%). Hence, partial replacement of GGBS can enable higher reduction of cement content.
concrete with percentage replacement of GGBS and also evaluate the optimum mix proportion of Geopolymer concrete with fly ash replaced in various percentages by Ground Granulated Blast Furnance Slag (GGBS) [1]. In the last compare the cost variation of geopolymer concrete with normal concrete.
dosage of percentage of replacement of cement with GGBS was found to be 40%, 40%and 50% in Ordinary (M20), Standard (M40) and High strength grade (M60) grades of concrete respectively. They also concluded that the partial replacement of cement with GGBS in concrete mixes has shown enhanced performance in terms of strength and durability
This paper involves the mix design procedure for normal strength concrete with slag replacement levels of 15%, 30% and 45%. The test results showed that the differences in the compressive strength of the concrete cast by proportions arrived from the conventional mix design and corrected mix design are minimum. Hence, the strength and water correction can be adopted and new mix design can be
From structural point of view, GGBS replacement enhances lower heat of hydration, higher durability and higher resistance to sulphate and chloride attack when compared with normal ordinary concrete. On the other hand, it also contributes to environmental protection because it minimizes the use of cement during the production of concrete.
Very occasionally, it can be found up to a ratio of 90% GGBS and 10% Pc. Concrete made with GGBS cement sets more slowly than concrete made with ordinary Portland cement, depending on the amount of GGBS in the cement mix, but also continues to gain strength over a longer period leading to improved overall durability and life expectancy. Silica fume
Regen Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS) is a cement substitute, manufactured from a byproduct of the ironmaking industry. Using one tonne of Regen in concrete reduces the embodied CO2 by around 900kg, compared to using one tonne of Portland Cement, and also increases its durability. Regen is more sustainable than other cement substitutes such as Fly Ash. In the UK, GGBS is
GGBS ( Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag ) is the waste product from the iron manufacturing industry, which may be used as partial replacement of cement in concrete due to its inherent cementing properties. And also Fly ash which is a byproduct from burning pulverized coal in electric power generating plants. Hence various proportions are made to replace cement partially by GGBS and Fly
Mix Design Procedure for Self Compacting Concrete 1Krishna, 2Narasimha Rao, replacement of cement with Metakaolin and class F flyash, combinations of both and controlled SCC mix with water/cementitious ratio(by weight) and 388 litre/m 3 of cement paste volume. Crushed granite stones of size 16mm and are used with a blending 60:40 by percentage weight of total
#0183;#32;I want to know. As per IS codes what is the maximum GGBS content i can add into concrete as a replacement of Cement. Can i add GGBS beyond the limit specified in IS code. This is important interview question, i want correct answer for it.
#0183;#32;As an example, the design procedure is explained for a SCC with design strength of 90 MPa and a cement replacement level of 40%. Table 2 . Mix details of the concretes developed.
GGBS mix to attack in aggressive environments such as silage pits. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE Mixing of Concrete With the addition of 40% of GGBS as a replacement of Cement for an M25 grade of concrete, there is an increase in the strength compared to the normal concrete.
