DURABILITY AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF ALKALI ACTIVATED SLAG CONCRETE IN LONG TERM PERFORMANCE
Abstract eng: This paper reports on an experimental program investigating the durability and mechanical properties of alkali activated slag concrete (AASC). The AASC was prepared using ground granulated blast furnace slag activated by high concentration alkali solution. The durability characteristics of AASC were measured using Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity. The mechanical properties were determined by compressive strength and elastic modulus. The result showed that AASC developed a comparable strength to Portland Cement (PC) concrete in the short term, but with a lower density, which could lead to inferior performance over longer periods of time.
