Abstract:

Literature shows increase in slag percentage in place of NCA enhances the compressive strength while increase in tensile strength is not substantial. As use of slag has increased the compressive strength to a substantial amount, the civil engineers are in a need to pace their research for enhancement of tensile strength. In normal strength and high strength concrete use of steel fiber with natural coarse aggregate has increased tensile strength to a higher amount. So, the same can be used for enhancement of tensile strength for concrete with slag. Till now no such work is carried out for improvement of tensile strength as well as compressive strength with addition of glass fiber with slag as coarse aggregate. In this study an attempt has been taken to measure fresh properties of concrete as well as the effect of addition of glass fiber on mechanical properties of slag concrete. his document gives formatting instructions for authors preparing papers for publication in the Proceedings of an SSRG International Journals Journal. The authors must follow the instructions given in the document for the papers to be published. You can use this document as both an instruction set and as a template into which you can type your own text.
