Characteristics of Pavement Cement Concrete Incorporating Steel Slag Powder by Erbu Tian, Yamin Liu, Xianpeng Cheng, Wuhua Zeng

“…After thermal braising and magnetic separation, steel slag is often ground into steel slag powder (SSP), which contains active silica (SiO2) and can be used as a cementitious material to replace part of the cement and applied in concrete. However, there have been relatively few studies on the influence of SSP on the performance of pavement cement concrete (PCC). …”

Experimental Study on Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Coal Gangue Concrete by Zhishu Yao, Yu Fang, Weihao Kong, Xianwen Huang, Xuesong Wang

“…The results show that (1) it is feasible that employing coal gangue to replace natural coarse and fine aggregates in concrete can prepare C30 and C40 concrete; (2) the addition of coal gangue fine aggregate has a positive effect on the impact energy of the initial and final cracks of concrete, while the addition of coal gangue coarse aggregate has a negative effect on it; (3) compared with the static strength, the dynamic strength of concrete is improved no matter whether coal gangue is added to concrete; (4) the incorporation of coal gangue coarse aggregate will make the concrete shear surface smooth; (5) at the given impacting pressure, the concrete with coal gangue coarse aggregate has greater particle breakage and those with coal gangue fine aggregate has less. …”
