Size Effect of High Performance Concrete with Blast Furnace Slag on Compressive Strength and Modulus of Elasticity

Abstract:

The 100 x 200 mm cylinder specimens are standard size to measure the compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. However, it is not enough for experimental data of mechanical properties of HPC about size effect. The aim of this study is to investigate the size effect of high performance concrete (HPC) using blast furnace slag (BS) for mechanical properties such as, compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. Therefore, in this study, Type A (100 x 200 mm cylinder specimens) and Type B (150 x 300 cylinder specimens) were prepared. Blast furnace slag is used as a replacement for ordinary Portland cement (OPC). The compressive strength, modulus of elasticity of harden concrete were determined in the laboratory.
