Experimental Program:
Compressive Strength:
A total of 48 cubical specimens of standard
dimensions 150 x 150 x 150 mm were
tested in the present study. The samples
were cast in 16 batches. M30 grade of
concrete was used for all. The percentage
replacement of fine aggregate by slag was
0, 5, 10, 15,20,30,40 and 50. A constant
water cement ratio of 0.43 was adopted for
making
concrete
mixtures.
The
mix
proportion used was 0.43:1:1.203:2.619.
The aggregate used for this study was
crushed stone from quarry with the nominal
size of 20mm. The cube specimens were
tested at 7 days and 28 days. Table 3 gives
concrete mix designs details. Table 4 gives
the 7 days cube compressive strength and
Table 5 gives 28 days cube compressive
strength.

Details of Leaching Experiment:
Leachant Studies:
Leaching experiments were carried out to
determine the leaching of some of the
harmful elements like copper, copper,
sulphur in the form of sulphite etc., The
specimen cast for compressive strength and
split tensile strength test were used for
leaching studies. A sample from cast
specimen having a particle size ranging from
5 mm to 50mm was taken for these studies.
The presence of calcium ions (Ca2+) and
sulphur (So42+) ions can be estimated by
volumetric analysis. Calcium leaching should
not exceed 10% to the weight of cement
and in case of sulphate ions the maximum
permissible limit is 1.4g/l. The presence of
copper and ferrous can be ascertained by
conducting
the
test
in
atomic
spectrophotometer. Table 7 gives the results
of leaching studies.
