Mainly two uses
Boyne Bridge M1
motorway(made of
GGBS)
Powerfloating
As GGBS concrete stays plastic for a longer
time than Portland cement concrete, this
enables the contractor to achieve a very flat
finish.
Strength
• GGBS cement has a higher ultimate strength
than concrete made with Portland cement.
• Higher proportion of the strength-enhancing
calcium silicate hydrates (CSH) than
concrete made with Portland cement only,
and a reduced content of free lime, which
does not contribute to concrete strength.
• Doubles its 28-day strength over a period of
10 to 12 years.
