Abstract
In this study, pulverized fly ash (FA), pulverized granulated blast furnace slag (PS) and silica fume (SF) were quantitatively studied with the incorporation of Portland cement (PC). PC was replaced with FA or PS at specified ratios. Basalt and quartz powder were used as an aggregate in the mixtures. Three different curing methods (standard, autoclave and steam curing) were applied to the specimens. Test results indicate that high strength concrete can be obtained with high volume mineral admixtures. Compressive strength of these mixtures is over 170 MPa. It seems that these mixtures can also be used for reactive powder concrete (RPC) production with some modifications.
