Today there is a growing research activity in order to investigate the possibility of using various waste or alternative materials in the cement and other industries. In this regard, granulated blast furnace slag is a significant addition to the metallurgical cement type CEM III. Cements based on blast furnace slag consist of a mixture of cement clinker, binding regulator (gypsum) and granulated slag, and they are treated differently depending on the achieved strength of cement and slag content. In this paper is presented the development of compressive strength of slag cement CEM III compared to
reference sample of Portland cement CEM I. By examination is established that compressive strength of Portland cement CEM I are higher in stages of examination after 2,7 and 28 days while the dominance of compressive strength of slag cement CEM III is evident in later stages of testing after 90,180 and 365 days.
