Tata Steel has unveiled a new value added product ‘Ground Granulated BF Slag (GGBS)’ for the construction industry which promises to be a sustainable and cost effective material, will not only increase compressive strength and durability of the concrete, but also significantly reduce the carbon foot-print.
GGBS has been widely used in developed economies for years and of late was also getting used in major construction projects in India. GGBS is blended with ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in ratio ranging from 30:70 to 70:30 to make Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC). The Mixing ratio depends on the required strength and nature of the concrete. This will cut down the cement cost in concrete by around 30-40 percent.
The company had organized an interactive session on the GGBS with builders, contractors and architects of Jamshedpur to introduce the product.
