Abstract

The disposals of different industrial wastes pose environmental problems to the society as many of them are non-biodegradable. India having the huge network of industries and many more are being established since it is a developing country. With each passing year several million metric tons of waste is getting increased. As the usage of road increases the use of unconventional ingredients also increases. The inclusion of several other secondary materials and industrial wastes may be a boon in preserving natural reserves and conventional materials. These materials have been evaluated and investigated for practicing and utilizing in various ways in construction industry. Many materials like plastic wastes, scrap tires, mine wastes, crushed glass, foundry sand etc. This study aims to give a significant demonstration on the use of blast furnace slag which is an industrial waste- byproduct in the construction of pavement.
