摘要:In present scenario, alternative materials in all forms of constructions is introduced to reduce thepressure on good quality natural materials, which will balance the economical purpose of the project while also takingcare of the surrounding environment. A large amount of by-product or wastes such as fly-ash, copper slag, silica fumeetc. are generated by industries, which causes environmental as well as health problems due to dumping and disposal.Copper slag is a by-product produced during smelting of copper. Each ton of copper produced, produces around 2.2tons of copper slag. Copper slag can be utilized as fine aggregate in cement mortars, normal concreteand also asaggregates (coarse) in concrete (high strength). As fine aggregate in cementmortar, copper slag provides goodinterlocking which leads to better volumetric and mechanicalquality of different mixes. It was reported that about 50%substitution of copper slag incement mortar increased the compressing strength highly, slightly increased the densityandsignificantly increased the workability [1]. This paper present literature review on replacement of fine aggregate bycopper slag which includes current and future trends of research.
