The effect of particle sizes of steel slag as cement replacement in high strength concrete under elevated temperatures

This study investigates the impact of utilizing steel slag (SS) as a partial substitute for cement in high strength concrete (HSC) under high temperatures covering a range from 200 °C to 800 °C over a duration of 2 h. Two particle sizes of SS: 75 µm and 150 µm, were utilized as fine steel slag (FSS)...
