The influence of industrial steel waste on slump test and compressive strength in eco-friendly concrete fabrication

This study evaluated the suitable percentage of replacing natural coarse aggregate (crushed granite) with wasted Zinc Aluminum (Zincalume) generated from metal roofing fabrication industry to produce G35 grade eco–friendly concrete. Design mix for the wasted Zincalume substitution with crushed gra...
