Multi-variable statistical analysis for scaling resistance of concrete containing GGBFS

This study examines the laboratory de-icing salt scaling performance of concrete containing varying amounts of GGBFS as cement replacement. Using experimental results of concrete tested in accordance with ASTM C 672 and MTO LS-412 reported in the literature, a statistical analysis was carried out to evaluate the significance of several mix design variables, surface finishing, type of de-icing salt and duration of curing. Specifically, two …
