A large quantity of filler is needed in the production of modern concrete types. Fillers can be made, but there is an abundance of by-products available from different industries. The use of by-products, from mineral and metallurgical industries, as filler in concrete requires a screening procedure that with high reliability can determine their impact on some important concrete properties, such as heat of hydration and strength development. A test procedure has been developed and evaluated. This paper is a summary of this procedure, and some of the findings are presented.
