Concrete is the most widely used building material on earth. Because of its extensive application, it is important to address the environmental impacts associated with this product. Slag cement is an important material in the effort to produce more sustainable concrete here in North America and beyond. This widely available, reliable supplementary cementitious material provides significant reductions in carbon emissions on a pound for pound basis when compared to Portland or Portland Limestone Cements. This course explains what slag is, how it is used, and why it is considered a vital tool in the production of low carbon concrete. It will review details from slag cement Environmental Product Declarations and show how it can lower the carbon impact of concrete mixtures. It will also explain multiple benefits of using slag cement in relation to concrete strength, durability, and utility across a wide variety of project applications.
