Recently, interest in environmentally friendly development has increased worldwide, especially in the construction industry. In this study, blast furnace slag powder (BFSP) and mixed steel fine aggregates were applied to cement mortars to reduce the environmental damage caused by the extraction of natural aggregate and to increase the recycling rate of steel by-products in the construction industry. We investigated the fluidity, compressive strength, tensile strength, accelerated carbonation depth, and chloride ion penetration resistance of mortars with steel slag aggregate and their dependence on the presence or absence of BFSP. Because the recycling rate of ferronickel slag is low and causes environmental problems, we considered mortar samples with mixed fine aggregates containing blast furnace slag fine aggregate (BSA) and ferronickel slag fine aggregate (FSA). The results showed that the 7-day compressive strength of a sample containing both 25% BSA and 25% FSA was nearly 14.8% higher than that of the control sample. This trend is likely due to the high density and angular shape of steel slag particles. The 56-day compressive strength of the sample with BFSP and 50% FSA was approximately 64.9 MPa, which was higher than that of other samples with BFSP. In addition, the chloride ion penetrability test result indicates that the use of BFSP has a greater effect than the use of steel slag aggregate on the chloride ion penetration resistance of mortar. Thus, the substitute rate of steel slag as aggregate can be substantially enhanced if BFSP and steel slag aggregate are used in an appropriate combination.

The effects of simultaneous use of recycled aggregates and ground blast furnace slag as a percentage of cement-constituting materials on different properties of fresh self-compacting concrete (SCC) are investigated in this study. To this end, three series of SCC mixtures with a fixed volume of cement paste equalling 380 ltr/m3 (2.36 gal/ft3) and the replacement ratio of coarse aggregates (fifty percent and one hundred percent) and total aggregates (zero percent, fifty percent and one hundred percent) were prepared. The water content ratios in the first, second and third series were 0.4, 0.45, and 0.5, respectively. The results of the compressive strength tests for 7-day, 14-day and 28-day cubic specimens and compressive strength and Brazilian test results for 28-day cylindrical specimens were used as control parameters governing the SCC resistive quality. The results of fresh SCC tests (including slump-flow and T50 tests, V-funnel test, and L-box test) showed that the negative effect of recycled fine aggregates on fresh SCC properties is significantly more than that of recycled coarse aggregate. However, recycled SCC with acceptable properties can be obtained with a slight increase in the amount of superplasticisers used in the presence of slag.

There are numerous negative social and environmental effects of overuse of river sand for construction. To reduce this, various substitutes have been used such as quarry dust, demolished concrete waste, industrial waste such as copper slag, eco sand etc. GBFS (Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) is a slag obtained from the manufacture of iron in steel industries. This research aims to investigate the possibility of replacing Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GBFS) as sand substitutes in concrete. In this research, natural sand was replaced by GBFS in various percentages (0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) with a constant water cement ratio of 0.45. Tests such as sieve analysis, specific gravity, fineness modulus and bulk density were done for fine aggregates and GBFS sample. Different mixed proportions for different percentage replacement of fine aggregates was obtained for M30 grade concrete as per IS 10262: 2009. The durability test was done for cubes of control mix and GBFS mix (0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%). It was found the strength of concrete was improved due to the addition of GBFS as fine aggregates. Test results showed that the compressive strength of concrete increased with increase in percentage of GBFS up to 75%. Beyond 75%, there was a marginal decrease in strength of concrete.
