| General
Usage Guide: |
| |
| The
17A Blast Furnace Slag should be blended into the concrete mixture along with the cement,
fine aggregate, water, admixtures and any special additives in the proportions detailed in
the mix design. Care needs to be taken to maintain the moisture content of the 17A Blast
Furnace Slag at or above the absorption level (3.5%-4.5%) so as to prevent the absorption
of mix water into the Blast Furnace Slag particles. |
