Abstract
Fly ash and Ground Granulated Burnt Slag (GGBS) are chosen mainly as an alternative for cement. In this paper our study is mainly confined to evaluation of changes in both compressive strength and flexural strength in three different mixes of M30 Grade namely i) conventional concrete, ii) concrete made by 50% replacement of cement by GGBS and iii) concrete made by 50% replacement of cement by 20% of Fly Ash and 30% of GGBS . The strength characteristics of the concrete were evaluated by conducting Compressive strength test and Flexural strength test. The compression strength tests were conducted for 7days, 14 days and 28days of curing and flexural strength test were conducted for 28days of curing on a M30 grade concrete. Henceforth we are replacing the OPC by cementitious material like GGBS and fly ash. The test results show that GGBS and FlyAsh concrete have excellent compressive strength and flexural strength and it is suitable for structural applications.
