      abstract = {This study investigates the mechanical properties of high-strength concrete (HSC) containing ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) as a partial replacement of cement using experimental and statistical methods. GGBS was incorporated because it enhances long-term strength. A mix design based on the absolute volume method was adopted to produce HSC at water–binder ratios of 0.20–0.29 and GGBS contents of 0–20%. Workability (slump) tests were first conducted on the fresh concrete to measure its consistency. A maximum 28-day compressive strength of 68.3 MPa was obtained for a water–binder ratio of 0.20 at 10% replacement, while a split tensile strength of 2.97 MPa was achieved at 10% replacement for a water–binder ratio of 0.23. For all mixes, the maximum compressive strength was measured at 10% GGBS inclusion.},
