Sustainable alternative constituents to cement are required to reduce its detrimental impact on the environment. This study
mainly focuses on the alternative materials to cement which are all derived as by-products from steel/iron and MgO manufacturing
industry. These alternative materials have been popularised in the last few years for their effective usage in the environmental
applications. Furnace steel slag, low grade MgO and pulverised fly ash are the materials proposed as cement replacement. The
results of this study will be used to demonstrate the characteristics of alternative materials by means of both physical and chemical.
