| Project: | The objectives of this research were to quantify the strength development and durability performances of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) over a range of cement brands, aggregates and curing conditions used in Wisconsin. The primary performance measures were compressive strength development and deicer freeze-thaw scaling resistance. Researchers found that under certain conditions, GGBFS can be used successfully in Wisconsin pavements. | |
