For utilization of Electric Arc Furnace Slag’s high added value, KS F 4571 was revised, so the institutional environment to use concrete aggregate was prepared. But, it has hardly been reported how much the slag occurring in actual steel-making plants meets KS requirements. Therefore, this study was intended to analyze various engineering features of electric arc furnace slag, which occur in diverse kinds of electric arc furnace process to manufacture reinforcing rebar, hot roll, and shape steel, in accordance with KS and relevant standards. The test results from this study showed that electric arc furnace slag occurring in Korea didn’t meet the standards relating to many physical properties, such as water absorption, grading, unit volume weight, and material passing standard sieve 0.08 mm which are required for concrete aggregate and are prescribed in KS F 4571, and therefore that something is needed to be improved. Regarding chemical properties, heavy metal solubility based on official wastes test method, CaO and FeO were met, but content of MgO related to expansion and basicity exceeded or came close to standards. Therefore, it was found that some measures should be taken to address the issue.
