Abstract

This chapter presents a study aimed at investigating the utilization of steel slag as a partial replacement of natural river sand as a fine aggregate in concrete production. It is difficult to produce iron in a blast furnace without first producing steel by-products, i.e., steel slag. The use of steel slag aggregates in concrete by replacing natural aggregates is encouraging because their effect on concrete strength is greater than that of natural river sand. For this study, a normal strength (C-25) of concrete with 0%, 15%, 30%, 45%, and 60% replacement of steel slag was utilized for 3 days, 7 days, 28 days, and 56 days of curing age. The material properties were carried out experimentally according to ASTM standards on the fresh, mechanical, and durability properties of concrete: workability, compressive strength, sulfate attack resistance, water absorption, and ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) tests were conducted. Based on the initial fundamental test carried out on the fresh properties of concrete in terms of workability, the test obtained the results needed with a slump of 25–50 mm. The compressive strength test results obtained by partial replacement of up to 30% were greater than those of the control mix. Durability tests on both sands, such as sulfate attack resistance, water absorption, and ultrasonic pulse velocity tests, showed that slag sand output was nearly equal to or better than natural river sand by up to 30%.
