Indian Concrete JournalSummary: This paper manifests on the potential use of air-cooled ferrochrome slag (ACFS) as a coarse aggregate of structural concrete. The construction industry is the greatest consumer of natural materials. Due to the rapid depletion of non- renewable natural resources, scientists around the globe are trying hard to find out suitable local alternatives to virgin materials. Industrial waste materials are reported as the best alternatives and ACFS is one of them, which possesses all desired engineering characteristics of coarse aggregate used in concrete. The physical, chemical and mechanical properties of ACFS were studied and found better to those of natural coarse aggregate. The flexural characteristics of reinforced concrete beams made with natural coarse aggregate and ACFS coarse aggregate were compared and it was observed that the latter has supremacy over the former.
