The characteristics of the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength according to replacement ratio of the blast furnace slag were found in this study. The blast furnace slag was utilizes as the concrete mix-material and then, these results were compared with the basis presented in the international standards. In this study, cylinder made of concrete with water/binder ratio 0.34 and blast furnace slag replacement rate of 10%, 30%, 50%, and 70% were prepared to measure the compressive strength and spiting tensile strength. Test results indicate that The 28 days and 91 days compressive strength is affected by blast furnace slag replacement except specimen BS30 and the splitting tensile strength in specimen BS series is slightly larger than that of OPC except specimen BS 30.
This paper addresses the results of an extensive experimental study on the compressive, splitting tensile strength modulus of elasticity in long-term. These tests were carried out to investigate the mechanical properties of HPC for 56 and 91days. In this work, High performance concrete was designed a water-binder ratio of 0.40. In addition, three different concrete mixes were used in these specimens. The results properties of HPC with fly Ash, blast furnace slag and silica fume were effective for compressive strength splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity improvement between 56 to 91 curing days.
