Effect of Nano Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) Volume % on Mechanical Behaviour of High-Performance Sustainable Concrete

Utilization of various mineral admixtures in producing mortar decreases the porosity and capillarity, hence improves the durability in opposition to water and competitive solutions. In this research work, Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag is used to replace 30 percent, 60 percent, and 70% of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) (GGBFS). Mechanical property (compressive strength) and durability properties (permeability, porosity, and sorptivity) of high-performance concrete (HPC) are tested. Water permeability of M85 is measured using three cell permeability apparatus. Compressive strength, porosity, and sorptivity of the same mixes are also found. According to the test results of HPC, 30% replacement level of GGBFS gives higher compressive strength than 60% and 70% replacement levels of GGBFS. An equation is developed for permeability of HPC based on mechanical strength and porosity. It is found that coefficient of permeability of water for HPC mixes ranges from 5.1 × 10-11 cm/sec to 7.8 × 10-11 cm/sec. It is concluded that 30% GGBFS used in HPC produces less porosity, less permeability, and less sorptivity than compared to other replacement levels.
