The materials used to cast the reinforced concrete (RC) beams for the flexural test and specimens for durability test were binder (CEM II/A-M, 42.5 N [], consists of 80–94% clinker, 6–20% slag, fly ash, and limestone, and 0–5% gypsum), water, coarse aggregate (fire clay brick aggregate-FCBA and induction furnace steel slag …

Identifying defective bricks is important for the consideration of stability and durability of load bearing brick masonry walls and structures. Following are the different types of defects generally found in bricks: 1. Over burning of bricks.

on the effect of steel slag replacement on the properties of brick, further investigations are necessary in order to obtain a comprehensive understanding that would provide an …

An appropriate amount of steel slag with high hardness and irregular shape in the mortar increases the energy required for crack propagation. Meanwhile, a proper amount of steel slag does not introduce excessive defects into the specimen. However, when the steel slag content increases from 25% to 50%, a decrease in the G f of

To maintain and manage re-fractory-lined equipment, it is necessary to inspect the ...

Steel slag's usage is related to its physico-chemical characteristics. The density of steel slag is 3.3–3.6 g/cm 3. Steel slag is hard because of its high Fe amount and is highly resistant to corrosion. The grindability index of steel slag is 0.7 [38]. Steel slag primarily consists of SiO 2, CaO, Fe 2 O 3, FeO, Al 2 O 3, MgO, MnO, and P 2 O 5 ...

Steel slag is an industrial waste rich in silicon and calcium phases. It is composed of CaO, SiO 2, Fe 2 O 3, MgO, and Al 2 O 3, and the phases in SS include C 2 S, C 3 S, the RO phase (a CaO–FeO–MnO–MgO solid solution), C 2 F, C 4 AF, and f-CaO [5].It has high abrasion, low-pressure crushing value, and cementing properties, and thus, it can be used as an …
