Steel slag is a solid waste discharged in huge quantity by the iron and steel making industries in India. recycling of these slags becomes an important issue for environmental protection. additives are available in large quantities that can be used to replace Portland cement in concrete [2].

manufacturing of Portland Cement is a highly energy-intensive process, one of the most significant activities stressed by the engineers and scientists related to concrete industry aims at a high percentage of replacement of clinker in cement with secondary raw materials, with the possibility of improvement of cement characteristics and durability of concrete. With this kind of approach, 33

S.S., Zhu, G.L., Zhang concluded that The recycling of steel slag will inevitably become an important measure for the environment protection and therefore will be of great significance [1]. Sobolov and Parks studies have been performed to determine mechanical properties, thermal properties, transport mechanisms and

Sun and Zhu found that When compound mineral admixtures with steel slag powder and blast-furnace slag powder are mixed into concrete, the performance of concrete can be improved further due to the synergistic effect and activation each other [7, 8].

Steel slag has Pozzollanic property, therefore it is expected that, with the addition of steel slag in OPC to some extent. strength of mix will not depreciate much and the mix will be more economical, and we can find the optimum percent of slag for maximum strength.
