An approach to study the inter-relationship between mechanical and durability properties of ternary blended cement concrete using linear regression analysis.

This paper deals with the experiments conducted to study the effect of copper slag, GGBFS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag), metakaolin on the properties of concrete. While GGBFS and metakaolin are used as partial substitutes for cement, copper slag is used as a partial substitute for fine aggregate. This study investigates the mechanical strength of the concrete in terms of compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength, bond strength and durability performance such as water absorption, porosity and sorptivity.
