Abstract:
This paper presents a study on the mechanical properties of copper slag admixed concrete along with the effect of elevated temperature on copper slag admixed concrete. An attempt has been made to find the optimum percentage of copper slag as a partial replacement of sand in preparation of concrete and further the effect of elevated temperature of 2000 C, 4000 C and 6000 C for 12 hours exposure period on copper slag admixed concrete with optimum percentage of copper slag has been studied. Finally the results of copper slag concrete have been compared with that of normal concrete. In the present experimental study, M20 concretes grades was used.
