BEHAVIOUR OF FRC USING STEEL SLAG ON RC MEMBER UNDER IMPACT LOAD

There is a growing interest in using waste materials as alternative aggregate materials and significant research is made on the use of many different materials as aggregate substitutes such as coal ash, blast furnace slag and steel slag. This type of waste material can solve problems for lack of aggregate in various construction sites and reduce environmental problems related to aggregate mining and waste disposal .Steel slag is produced as a by-product during the manufacture of iron and steel. Significant quantities of steel slag are generated as the major by product from the conversion of iron to steel in the basic steel making processes so an attempt is made here to study bridge the gap between unused or recycled waste in construction industry
