Abstract

Industrial-based pozzolanic substance with high silica content is called GGBFS stands for ground granulated blast furnace slag. This experimental study focused on self-compacting concrete (SCC) to create a concrete that was affordable utilizing manufactured sand (M-sand) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS). Utilizing Natural River sand harms riverbanks, drastically alters the water table, and drives up the price of river sand daily. In order to solve these issues, the fabrication of SCC uses artificial sand, a byproduct of industrial waste that is GGBFS from steel industry. This substance has the potential to produce a sustainable building material. The experimental findings are based on the evolution of the mechanical characteristics of SCC. In this work, SCC with M-sand and GGBFS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) are presented. Try out six different combinations. For example, a partial replacement with GGBFS (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30), in addition to density comparisons, mechanical properties such as (Compressive strength, Split Tensile strength, and Flexural strength) and fresh quality characteristics such as (Slump flow and L-Box Test) for each mix have been compared throughout periods of 7 days, 28 days, and 90 days.
