The workability of washed quarry dust from quarry 1 gave better results than samples from other quarry The compressive strength of the concrete increases with reduction in the quarry dust replacement. concrete Made of 20% replacement equals the compressive strength of concrete made of pure sand.
Results indicated that when QD replaced sand by 50%, the CS increased to a high of 19.18% [ 79 ]. When fine aggregate is substituted with 50/50 marble sludge …
When conventional fine aggregate is completely replace with quarry dust. G Balamurugan. (2013) Behaviour of concrete on the use of quarry dust to replace sand. This experimental study presents the variation in the strength of concrete when replacing sand by quarry dust from 0% to in steps of 10%. M20 and M25 grades
Abstract- This experimental study presents the variation in the strength of concrete when replacing sand by quarry dust from 0% to in steps of 10%. M20 and M25 grades of concrete were taken for study keeping a constant slump of 60mm. The compressive strength of concrete cubes at the age of 7 and 28 days were obtained at room temperature.
K. Shyam Prakash et.al [2] (2016): The concept of replacement of natural fine aggregate by quarry dust which is highlighted in the study could boost the consumption of quarry dust generated fromquarries. By replacement of quarry dust, the requirement of land fill area can be reduced and can also solve the problem of natural sand scarcity.
The workability of washed quarry dust from quarry 1 gave better results than samples from other quarry The compressive strength of the concrete increases with reduction in …
In the recent years, there is an increasing interest in deploying quarry dust as sand replacement. Quarry dust is a by-product of mineral aggregate processing at crushing mills. Typically, quarry dust is small sand-sized particles and washed to be used as construction aggregate. Quarry dust has some advantages over river sand such as …
The Dust contents higher than 15% increases the water absorption of the. concrete. Partial replacement of sand by stone dust in concrete also reduces workability but the. compressive strength and ...
This project report results of an experimental study the mechanical properties of (OPC) cement by brick powder and sand by quarry dust in the range of 0%, 10%, 15%, and 20% by weight of cement .concrete mixtures were produced,tested and compared in terms of compressive strength, split tensile strength to the conventional concrete .These tests ...
This study seeks to determine the suitability and potential use of quarry dust in concrete as a partial replacement of river sand and come up with an optimum mix. Concrete mixes bearing varying proportions of quarry dust and river sand will be cast and tested, and that which bears the proportion yielding the maximum compressive and …
This study investigated the use of sawdust as partial replacement for fine aggregates in concrete production. Sawdust was used to replace fine aggregates from 0% to 50% in steps of 10%. Concrete cubes measuring 150 x 150 x 150mm were cast and their compressive strengths evaluated at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. Increase in percentage of …
This work investigated the effect of partial replacement of sand with quarry dust on the compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength and water absorption of sandcrete blocks. River sand was replaced with quarry dust at percentages ranging from 0 to 40 at cement/combined aggregate ratio of 1: 6. The blocks were …
"Partial Replacement of Sand w ith Quarry Dust in Concrete", International journal of Innovative Technology and Exploring Engineering, Vol- 2, Iss 6, 2013,pp 254 – 258.
Two basic mixes were selected for. natural sand to achieve M20 and M30. grade concrete. The equivalent mixes. were obtained by replacing natural. sand by stone dust partially and fully. The test ...
This project deals with the experimental study of the characteristic strength of concrete using quarry dust as a complete replacement of river sand fine aggregate tested at 7 and 28 days. ... Nine concrete mixes were prepared with Marble Powder and Quarry Dust as sand replacement materials (12.5%, 25%, 50% separately, and 25%, 50% combined ...
The concrete mix M4 (50% USS + 50%QD) is the optimum mix for complete replacement of river sand with both sea sand and quarry dust as fine aggregate. b) The 28-day compressive strength is maximum for the M6 mix ( QD) is 40.8 ± 1.15 MPa and lowest is for M2 mix ( USS) is 29.7 ± 0.90 MPa among all excluding control mix.
