EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS ON THE COMBINED EFFECT OF BAGASSE AND STEEL SLAG ON STRENGTH AND DURABILITY CHARACTERISTICS OF CONCRETE - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Concrete was the first material to be used as the construction material. Concrete has good strength in cracks and pours .Carbon is the only mineral that influence the strength of steel maximum .Carbon increase strength and brittleness in a material which is present in steel as well as Bagasse. Sand is natural resources and the rate of sand increases day by day because of great demand .On the other hand wastes of steel industries like steel slag is harmful for environment. Steel slag has been studied to put on various kind of construction like buildings and pavement .It was observed that the 10-15% replacement of cement by bagasse is optimum range which gives the high compressive strength and replacement of F.A within range of 30-40% with steel slag gives high value of compressive strength. The purpose of analysis was to discuss the fresh and hardened characteristics of both material together replacing the cement with percentage of 5%,10%,15% and 20% and fine aggregate was replace with steel slag with 10%,20%,30% and 40%. Behave substitution of some cement by bagasse and fine aggregate by steel slag decreases the cost of material.
