Abstract
Effects of many factors, such as ground quartz sand (GQS) replacement of ce ment, SiO2 content and specific area of GQS, and steam-curing temperature o n the mechanical properties of high-strength concrete that was steam-autocl aved, were investigated. The mechanism of GQS replacement of cement was ana lyzed by XRD. The process adjustment and the cost of raw materials in concr ete after GQS replacement of cement were also discussed.
