AB Industrial production of iron and steel within Spain has historicallybeen situated in the north area of Spain. Although a major economic activity forthe region, the industry also generates large volumes of waste that have hithertobeen dumped in unsightly landfill sites. Over 25 years ago, a group of engineersand researchers from the same area set themselves the challenge of regenerating this waste. In this study, the advances developed in the technology of greenslag concrete are reviewed, focusing on the expertise that the research group hasaccumulated over the past 25 years. Electric arc furnace slag is a stony materialthat is now often used as aggregate in hydraulic and bituminous mixes. Its usein hydraulic cement-based materials and the important properties of slag aggregates for mix workability are analyzed. Likewise, the mechanical behavior andthe durability of slag concrete specimens is presented, paying special attentionto expansive compounds and to the performance of electric arc furnace concretein marine environments. In addition, real scale elements manufactured with slagconcrete and their behavior are analyzed, as well as the advantages of applyingcurrent standards to their design. Finally, new lines of research are discussed forthe use of electric arc furnace slag in cement-based materials.
