This paper presents the results of an investigation for the possible u
ses of electric-are furnace dust (EAFD) by-product in concrete manufac
turing. The effects of EAFD on the properties of fresh and hardened co
ncrete are investigated. The results of standard tests on fresh concre
te indicate that EAFD can be used as an effective set retarder. In add
ition, other standard tests appear to indicate that EAFD will enhance
engineering properties of hardened concrete without any side-effects.
