Summary
Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slag
(GGBFS) is a
Byproduct of iron production
that, when finely ground, can be used as a
Supplementary Cementitious Material
in concrete, enhancing its durability and strength. Its use in construction not only improves the quality of concrete but also contributes to sustainability by reducing the carbon footprint associated with
Portland cement production
.
