Influence of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) as Cement Replacement on the Properties of Sand Cement Brick

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from cement manufacturing contribute significantly to greenhouse gases. However,cement manufacture is necessary since a vast number of bricks are required satisfy residential housing demand. Considering this crucial environmental impact, encouraged form futuristic civilizations.Cement replacement isideally good propositionto produce green and sustainable sand brickto reduceCO2emissions.This study investigatesthe influence Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS)as partial brick. Thepercentages GGBS 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% 60% by mass the with mix design ratio 1:3and 0.6 water ratio. All werecuring up 90 days. The absorption test compressive strength were also carried out for its durability mechanical properties. experimental results indicate that 20% as in brick gives better performancethan conventional terms after curing 56
