ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: Laboratory test results are presented for the evaluation of the environmental impacts of national processed steel slag (ISAC), when used in transportation infrastructures and geotechnical works. Furthermore, laboratory test for the geometrical, physical and mechanical properties of such materials are presented. All the laboratory results show that the national processed steel slags could be used in geotechnical works, and particularly in transportation infrastructures. It was also experimentally observed that the two ISACs tested have better mechanical properties than the standard unbound granular base course materials.
