A total of 54 cubes (150 x 150 x 150 mm) and 54prisms (100 x 100 x 500 mm) were prepared in three groups according to different binder content and the samples were cured under two curing conditions which were air and water curing for 7, 14 and 28 days before testing.

For air curing, 30% SBE concrete mixture achieved 8.6MPa of compressive strength and 2.44MPa of flexural strength. For water curing, 30% SBE concrete mixture achieved 9.89MPa of compressive strength and 2.76MPa of flexural strength On the other hand, 40% SBE concrete mixture achieved 8.43MPa of compressive strength and 2.58MPa of flexural strength under air curing.
