TO utilize industrial residue as building materials is not only the demand for modern concretetechnology but also the requirements for maintaining ecological balance and sustainable development. CRM, anew high effective mineral admixture for concrete, is developed recently from industrial residue, and the systematical studies on CRM's various properties have been performed. The laboratory tests, industrial tests andfield applications have shown that CRM can be used as inorganic cementitious material to replace cement, andis also an excellent supplementary cementitious material for high performance concrete (HPC).
