| Abstract: | This paper outlines the method of preparation, testing procedure and salient results
on the eco-friendly concrete that is manufactured using the waste products of steel industries and
hydraulic lime. Tests are carried out in two phases. In the first phase of tests, the quantity
optimization of raw materials like fly ash and hydraulic lime is made so as to get a best binding
material that resembles the conventional binder, the cement. The optimum lime content is
determined by testing mortar cubes prepared from lime, fly ash and ground granulated blast
furnace slag (GGBFS), mixed in different proportions. The amount of lime in the mixture of
lime+ fly ash was varied as 20, 35, 50, 65, 80 and 100 percent. The conventional procedure
followed to characterize the quality of cement is adopted in this phase of tests and best raw
material composition was arrived at. In the second phase, concrete specimens were prepared
with taking steel slag as coarse aggregate, GGBFS as fine aggregat... |
