Abstract

With the support of the Standing Committee on Concrete Technology (SCCT), the Public Works Central Laboratory (PWCL) carried out an investigation on the strength development and durability of Ground Granulated Blastfurnace Slag (GGBS) concrete. The investigation studied the characteristics of concrete with different percentages of GGBS and compared them with that of Portland Cement concrete. The effects of silica fume, source of GGBS, curing environments and curing durations were also examined.

This final report presents the study findings for concrete cubes with an age of up to 364 days.
