This study investigated the mechanical properties of high strength concrete incorporating copper slag as a fine aggregate and concluded that less than 40% copper slag as sand substitution can achieve a high strength concrete that comparable or better to the control mix, beyond which however its behaviors decreased significantly. The workability and strength characteristics were assessed through a series of tests on six different mixing proportions at 20% incremental copper slag by weight replacement of sand from 0% to 100%. The results indicated that the strength of the concrete with less than 40% copper slag replacement was higher than or equal to that of the control specimen and the workability even had a dramatic growth. The microscopic view demonstrated that there were limited differences between the control concrete and the concrete with less than 40% copper slag content. It also suggested that the determination of the copper slag replacement level should consider with the desired compressive strength of concrete.
