Abstract

The present paper reviews the experimental characterization of cupola slag as a pozzolanic binder. Chemical composition of cupola slag was investigated using XRF scan. From the chemical composition, it can be indicated that the constituents of cupola slag is comparable to the other cementitious materials. Its use in production of building blocks is advantageous. The present paper explores various optimum percentage replacement level of cupola slag in the concrete and mortar.
