The characteristics of the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength according to replacement ratio of the blast furnace slag were found in this study. The blast furnace slag was utilizes as the concrete mix-material and then, these results were compared with the basis presented in the international standards. In this study, cylinder made of concrete with water/binder ratio 0.34 and blast furnace slag replacement rate of 10%, 30%, 50%, and 70% were prepared to measure the compressive strength and spiting tensile strength. Test results indicate that The 28 days and 91 days compressive strength is affected by blast furnace slag replacement except specimen BS30 and the splitting tensile strength in specimen BS series is slightly larger than that of OPC except specimen BS 30.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity characteristics of high performance concrete. These tests were carried out to evaluate the mechanical properties of HPC for up to 7 and 28 days. Mixtures were prepared with water to binder ratio of 0.40. Two mixtures were containing fly ash at 25%, silica fume at 5% cement replacement, respectively. Another mixture was contains blast furnace slag and fly ash at 25%. Three standard 100¥a200 cylinder specimens were prepared. HPC showed improvement in the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength when ordinary Portland cement was replaced with silica fume. Compare with specimens FA25 and BS25FA25, specimen SF5 showed much more modulus of elasticity. It shows that the use of the blast furnace slag of 25% and fly ash of 25% cement replacement has caused a small increase in compressive strength and splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity compared to the only use of fly ash of 25% at 28days. The results indicated that the use of blast furnace slag or silica fume provided the good performance compare to fly ash when the mechanical properties of the high performance concretes were taken into account.

High performance concrete (HPC) can be made with cement alone or any combination of cement and mineral components, such as, blast furnace slag, fly ash, silica fume, kaolin, rice husk ash, and fillers, such as limestone powder [. In this study, three mixes of high performance concrete (HPC) with same water-binder ratio and different types of mineral admixtures were prepared. he compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity values were measured in accordance with the ASTM. The influence of fly ash (FA), blast furnace slag (BS) and silica fume (SF) on mechanical properties of HPC were compared and analyzed. Their mechanical properties are measured at 7 days and 28 days. The results showed that specimen BS45+SF5 performed better than specimens BS30+FA25+SF5 and BS65+SF5 for the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.

A great deal of experiments have been carried out in this study to reveal the effect of the water-binder ratio and fly ash content on the workability and strengths of GHPC (green high performance concrete). The workability of GHPC was evaluated by slump and slump flow. The strengths include compressive strength and splitting tensile strength. The results indicate that the increase of water-binder ratio can improve the workability of GHPC, however the strengths of GHPC were decreased with the increase of water-binder ratio. When the fly ash content is lower than 40%, the increase in fly ash content has positive effect on workability of GHPC, while the workability begins to decrease after the fly ash content is more than 40%. The addition of fly ash in GHPC has adverse effect on the strengths, and there is a tendency of decrease in the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of GHPC with the increase of fly ash content.

In this study, some experimental investigations on the development of mechanical properties with age of high performance concrete (HPC) incorporated with blast furnace slag with fly ash or silica fume have been reported. Four different blended HPC were prepared in 0.40 water-binder ratio. At every four mixtures, the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity at 7 and 28 days have been observed for HPC developments. Consequently, only replacement of silica fume significantly increases the mechanical properties in terms of compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.

Fly ash and blast furnace slag dumped not only pollutes environment, but also consumes landfills. With the aim of sustainable development, the isolated contribution of fly ash and blast furnace slag in concrete to the mechanical properties of frame concrete is investigated. An experimental study is conducted to investigate mechanical properties of high performance concrete. Test variables are the replacement levels for FA series (10%, 20% and 30%) and for BS series (10%, 30%, 50% and 70%) in place of part of cement. Compressive, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and flexural strength tests were carried out to evaluate the mechanical properties for up to 7days and 28 days. The mechanical properties of high performance concrete compared with predicted values by ACI 318-02 Code, EC 2-02, JSCE Code, KCI Code and proposed Eq.

This article deals with influence of the ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) in the mixture of high performance concrete. It is a powder active addition used in concrete which is characterized certain cementitious properties. Influence of this addition was experimentally verified. In the first series, partial replacement of cement by GGBS was tested. In the second series, GGBS was added to the original reference mixture. Studied parameters were compressive strength, tensile strength and workability. The tests have shown that a partial replacement of the cement by GGBS is possible for achieving the desired workability or if we need to reduce the price of concrete.

The 100 x 200 mm cylinder specimens are standard size to measure the compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. However, it is not enough for experimental data of mechanical properties of HPC about size effect. The aim of this study is to investigate the size effect of high performance concrete (HPC) using blast furnace slag (BS) for mechanical properties such as, compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. Therefore, in this study, Type A (100 x 200 mm cylinder specimens) and Type B (150 x 300 cylinder specimens) were prepared. Blast furnace slag is used as a replacement for ordinary Portland cement (OPC). The compressive strength, modulus of elasticity of harden concrete were determined in the laboratory.
