Sulfate-bearing soils, which causes many engineering problems, e.g., cracking, collapse, and pavement layer settlement, are often encountered in the construction of pavements. Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS)-magnesia (MgO) has been regarded as an effective curing agent treatment sulfate-bearing soil containing gypsum. However, field soils usually include other forms sulfates, such s...

Partial cement replacement by low-carbon-impact additions has the potential to reduce CO2 emissions. The aim of this study is development a ternary binder that includes ordinary Portland (OPC), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), and flash-calcined sediment (FCS). To upgrade dredged mineral material into FCS, new heat treatment, i.e., flash calcination, was used. used materials were ph...

Alsophila costularis Barker (Cyathea costularis), an endangered tree fern with tree-like erect stem, attracts gardening enthusiasts as a special ornamental plant. In vitro propagation can be advantageous for germplasm conservation and commercial application of A. costularis. Here, we described in via spore culture green globular bodies (GGBs) system, well the long-term observation acclimated pl...

Reactive Powder Concretes (RPC) are well known for their exceptional strength properties and durability properties. The use of Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) is the best way to enhance characteristics RPCs further. Among various SCMs, potential Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slag (GGBS) proven by many researchers. However, effect GGBS on fracture toughness RPCs, especially under te...

Conductive fillers, such as graphite particles (GP), steel slags (SS), and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) have been widely utilized in designing electrically conductive cementitious composites (ECCC) for various applications, including traffic detection, structural health monitoring (SHM), pavement deicing. Owing to the complex working field, a comprehensive understanding of role t...

Laboratory experiments were used to determine the suitability of raw industrial by-products obtained within United Kingdom that are being taken landfill sites and develop a hydraulically bound cementitious material for applications in road (base), foundation, subgrade pavement construction. The predominantly sourced locally. Tests carried out mechanical stability by-product binders performance ...

This paper describes a review of the potential use of High Strength Incorporating Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag and Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete used in construction industry to improve the structural strength and reduce steel reinforcements requirements. Blast furnace slag (GGBS) has been used as a supplementary material along with the cement. It helps in increasing the durability an...

The resourceful reuse, construction, and environmental safety hazards of shield residues in underground construction have received a lot attention. This paper reports the assessment generated with space development through stabilization. variations strength, durability, properties magnesium oxide (MgO)-activated ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS)-fiber material stabilized are tested by...

Abstract Alkali-activated fly ash/GGBS concrete (AAFGC) is a new blended that has been studied by many researchers due to its environmental advantages and better technological characteristics. However, the effect of various factors on AAFGC fresh hardened properties not yet thoroughly studied. The literature mainly describes combination NaOH Na2SiO3 as an activator for AAFGC’s activation, but a...

Here, an approach to quantify the amorphous-to-disordered/crystalline transformation occurring in NaOH-activated ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) is outlined that combines atomistic modeling with situ pair distribution function (PDF) analysis. Firstly, by using force-field molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, a detailed structural representation generated for amorphous GGBS agreement...
