AB This paper is part of a research line focused on the reduction of the use of cement in theindustry. In this work, the study of work methodologies for the manufacture of green cementitiousgrout mixtures is studied. Grout is widely used in construction and it requires an important use ofraw materials. On the other hand, the steel industry faces the problem of the growing generationof slag wastes due to the increase in steel manufacturing. The green grout aims to achieve the dualobjective of reducing the demand for cement and improve the slag waste valorization. Slag is notintroduced as an aggregate but through the direct replacement of cement and no additives. Theresearch seeks a product where we can use steel slag intensively, guaranteeing minimum resistanceand workability. Results with substitutions between a 25% to 50% and water/cement ratio of 1 arepresented. In particular, the suitability of different slags (two Ladle Furnace Slag (LFS) and one BlastFurnace Slag (GGBS)) in the quality of the final product are analyzed. The feasibility of replacingcement with slag and the importance of the origin and pretreatment are highlighted.
