Abstract

Concrete is most widely used building material in the world, as well as the largest user of natural resources with annual consumption of 12.6 billion tons. Concrete is a mixture of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, and water. Concrete plays a vital role in the development of infrastructure which is, buildings, industrial structures, bridges, and highways etc. Recycled rubber tyre waste is a promising material in the construction industry and the sole reason for this is the lightweight of the resulting concrete when the rubber tyre is incorporated in it as an aggregate replacement.One another such material is Ground Granulated Blast Slag (GGBS). Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS) is a by-product of the blast furnaces used to make iron. GGBS is used to make durable concrete structures in combination with ordinary Portland cement and/or other pozzolanic materials. GGBS has been widely used in Europe, and increasingly in the United States and in Asia for its superiority in concrete durability, extending the lifespan of buildings from fifty years to a hundred years
