Abstract:The concrete industry in Egypt has incorporated Blast Furnace Slag Cement Concrete, BFSCC, as a replacement to Ordinary Portland Cement Concrete, OPCC, in favor to resist harsh conditions related to water hydraulic structures. The practice cannot follow the strict requirements of curing according to the Egyptian code of practice (ECP), where in such cases it was necessary to evaluate the mechanical behavior of such concretes experimentally with practical curing methodologies. Two different methods were used to… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
