Abstract The present confront among the construction industry is to curtail production of ordinary Portland cement (OPC), which directly responsible emission harmful gases like CO 2 during manufacturing and also depletion natural resources lime stone, coal etc. investigation focused develop sustainable concrete using complementary cementing materials (CCMs) for environment. Ground granulated bl...

It is necessary to reduce greenhouse gases in the construction industry environmental loading. Therefore, we confirmed performance of concrete using ground granulated blast-furnace slag, which expected carbon dioxide emissions. As a result, influence slag usage rate on strength development and durability could be confirmed. In addition, from results accelerated carbonation test, design set, sim...

The major decision in construction process involves the selection of suitable site with best soil conditions, as structure resides in the soil. Most problematic soils like expansive soils hardly proved to be the best engineering subgrade profile for pavement constructions. Thus, this has undeniably led to the soil improvement options accompanying the reduction in resource depletion and solid wa...

Stabilisation/solidification (S/S) is an effective technique for reducing the leachability of contaminants in soils. Very few studies have investigated the use of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) for S/S treatment of contaminated soils, although it has been shown to be effective in ground improvement. This study sought to investigate the potential of GGBS activated by cement and lime...
