Abstract
Concrete with blast furnace slag (BFS) shows varied strength development properties under general temperature conditions. Therefore, a precise prediction of compressive strength using a full maturity model is desired. The purpose of this study is to predict the compressive strength of concrete with BFS by calculating the apparent activation energy (Ea) for each BFS replacement ratio, applying this activation energy to the equivalent age model, and then using the Carino model. For BFS replacement ratios of 0%, 10%, 30%, and 50%, Ea is calculated as 33.475 kJ/mol, 37.325 kJ/mol, 41.958 kJ/mol and 45.541 kJ/mol respectively. Finally, the compressive strength of concrete with BFS is predicted.
