The results presented here were obtained as part of an investigation into the use of pelletized blastfurnace slag (pbfs) as a lightweight aggregate in structural concrete. They cover the basic properties of the concrete: compressive and tensile strengths, bond between concrete and reinforcement, elasticity moduli, ultrasonic pulse velocity and carbonation for both pbfs only and pbfs/ sand mixes. These properties were examined as a function of the age of the specimens with various curing conditions.
