  • Abstract:
  • With six billion tonnes produced each year, concrete is arguably the most widely utilised construction material in the world. In terms of proximity to water, it merely consumption per person. However, the sustainability of the environment is in jeopardy due to harm brought on by the exploitation of raw materials as well as CO2 emissions during the production of cement, hence there is a need to reduce cement use by partially replacing cement with additional materials. These resources could consist of naturally occurring substances, industrial leftovers, or less energy-intensive byproducts. When mixed with calcium hydroxide, these substances, known as pozzalonas, exhibit cementetious qualities. Fly ash, silica fume, metakaolin, and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) are the most frequently utilised pozzalonas. This paper tries to shade light on the state of the art pertaining to use of and Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) Blended Cementious Systems
