US: Heidelberg Materials North America have supplied slag and Portland cement for the construction of TSX Broadway in New York City. The construction involved advanced demolition and building techniques, utilising concrete's properties for strength and stiffness.
Stan Trella, Sales Manager Metro New York/Long Island at Heidelberg Materials North America, said "The use of slag cement was beneficial in multiple ways. Not only does slag cement optimise concrete’s strength, but it reduced the environmental impact of this high-profile venue by lowering the percentage of ordinary Portland cement in the mix."
