This work performs experimental investigations on concrete made with difference replacement percentage of first-class burnt clay brick aggregate (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, and 100%) by steel slag (SS) aggregate. The aim is to evaluate the mechanical properties as well as durability performances, additionally, water absorption porosity test is performed to investigate the influence of steel slag aggregate on the durability of tested concrete. The experimental results have shown that the compressive strength was improved significantly due to the replacement of brick aggregate by steel slag aggregate. The crushing strength of concrete made with 100% steel slag aggregate has gained up to 70% more than the control concrete (100% brick aggregate). However, the porosity of concrete was reduced with the adding percentage of brick aggregate by steel slag aggregate which is consistent with the compressive strength results. Further, a quite good agreement between compressive strength and porosity was observed as well.

People often use superplasticizer and mineral admixtures (such as steel slag, slag, etc.) to increase the density of concrete and improve concrete strength, but don’t use coarse aggregate gradding. The paper selects the coarse aggregate of skeleton structure from several grading concept, and uses Uniform Design to test high strength concrete workability, and analyses results. It is shown from the results that the method of Uniform Design can significantly reduce the workload, and concrete mixture slump increases linearly with the water-cement ratio and sand percentage, but decreases linearly with steel slag addition, and the water released from the flocculation of cement by superplasticizer can increase the slump, and most of water plays the role of lubricant before it reacts with cement, and the effect of slump that sand extends coarse aggregate skeleton are greater than that sand surface area increases.

Since a considerable amount of steel slag is produced in the southwestern part of Pennsylvania around Pittsburgh, where natural fine aggregate sources are limited, an evaluation was undertaken to determine the feasibility of using “cured” steel slag fine aggregate in hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures. The objectives of this work were to (1) correlate fine aggregate expansions to the “parent” coarse aggregate expansions, (2) determine properties of dense-graded Pennsylvania ID-2 wearing coarse mixtures made with various sources of steel slag and crushed limestone fine aggregate, and (3) recommend appropriate specifications and test criteria for implementing the use of steel slag fine aggregate, if justifiable. Expansive characteristics of the steel slag aggregates were determined by Pennsylvania Test Method 130. HMA mixtures made with steel slag aggregates and limestone aggregate (control) were subjected to hot-water conditioning and Lottman freeze-and-thaw conditioning to determine potential problems, such as swell and moisture-induced damage. An excellent correlation existed between the average total expansion of the fine aggregate fraction and that of the “parent” coarse aggregate. No significant problems with swell and moisture-induced damage were noted in HMA mixtures containing steel slag fine aggregate and limestone coarse aggregate. Specifications and test criteria were recommended for the use of steel slag fine aggregate in HMA mixtures.


Recycling of materials has become a major interest for engineers. At present, the amount of slag deposited in storage yard adds up to millions of tons/year leading to the occupation of farm land and serious pollution to the environment, as a result of the rapid growth in the steel industry. Steel slag is made at 1500- 1650°C having a honey comp shape with high porosity. Using steel slag as the natural aggregate with a lower waste material cost can be considered as a good alternative for sustainable constructions. The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of residual mechanical properties of concrete with steel slag as coarse aggregate partial replacement after exposing to high temperatures .This study investigates the behavior of using granulated slag as partial or fully coarse aggregate replacement with different percentages of 0%, 15%, 30%, 50% and 100% in concrete when subjected to elevated temperatures. Six groups of concrete mixes were prepared using various replacement percentages of slag exposed to different temperatures of 400 °C, 600 °C and 800 °C for different durations of 1hr, 1.5hr and 2hr. Evaluation tests were compressive strength, tensile strength, and bond strength. The steel slag concrete mixes showed week workability lower than control mix. A systematic increasing of almost up to 21.7% in compressive strength, and 66.2% in tensile strength with increasing the percentage of steel slag replacement to 50%. And the results showed improvement on concrete residual mechanical properties after subjected to elevated temperatures with the increase of steel slag content. The findings of this study give an overview of the effect of steel slag coarse aggregate replacement on concrete after exposed to high temperatures.
