FLEXURAL BEHAVIOUR OF REINFORCED CONCRETE SLABS USING STEEL SLAG AS COARSE AGGREGATE REPLACEMENT

P.Vasanthi

Abstract: The aim of this project is to test the strength and performance of concrete and flexural behaviour such as deflection and load acting on slabs of size 1400x1200x100mm, containing steel slag that is been used as partial replacement of natural coarse aggregate of size 20mm, as opposed to that of normal concrete. For this research work, M30 and M40 grade of concrete is used and test is conducted by casting slabs for various proportion of steel slag replacement of CA with 0%, 30%, 60% and 100%. The obtained results is been compared with both grade of concrete and it is been tabulated.
