fundamental study on the development of structural,manufacturers. in addition, lightweight concrete is only used for non-structural purposes [3]. therefore, development of slwc by using a foaming agent mixed with normal coarse aggregates rather than lightweight aggregates would enable the use of massive lightweight concrete for.development of heavyweight self-compacting concrete and,the replacement of natural coarse aggregates with magnetite aggregates in control scc and control gc at volume ratios of 50%, 75%, and 100% was considered in this study to obtain heavyweight concrete classifications, according to british standards, which provide proper protection from sources that emit harmful radiations in medical and nuclear industries and may also be used in many offshore structures..

presently large amounts of marble dust are generated in natural stone processing plants with an important impact on the environment and humans. this project describes the feasibility of using the marble sludge dust in concrete production as partial replacement of cement. in india, the marble and granite stone processing is one of the most thriving industry the effects if varying marble dust
where can recycled aggregate concrete be used: the applications of aggregate concrete without processing include: its used for many types of general bulk fills. filling drainage structures. noise barriers and embankments. road constructions. unprocessed crushed concrete aggregate is often sold for pavement subbases as 1 ½ or 2 inches fraction.
furthermore, authors developed methods of producing concrete using by-product aggregates such as large uncrushed concrete debris from the earthquake disaster or steel making slag. especially when using large uncrushed concrete debris, pre-placed aggregate concrete method and post-packed concrete method were adopted to reduce processing time and cost by using as much uncrushed concrete
grade concrete with 50% quarry dust replacement for river sand and 5% and 10% ground nut shell ash for cement at 28 days is done using is mix design method. the concrete compressive strength made of 50% quarry dust and 10% gsa is more than that of the control concrete…
aggregates for concrete bination of gravels or crushed stone with particles predominantly larger than 5 mm (0.2 in.) and generally between 9.5 mm and 37.5 mm (3⁄ 8 in. and 11⁄ 2 in.). some natural aggregate deposits, called pit-run gravel, consist of gravel and sand that can be readily used in concrete after minimal processing. natural gravel and sand are
in this study, the experimental investigations were carried out to examine the feasibility of use of marble waste as a coarse aggregate in concrete. natural coarse aggregate was replaced by marble...
durability of concrete made with granite and marble as coarse aggregates was studied. river sand and ground blast furnace slag (gbfs) were used as fine aggregates. the results were compared with those of conventional concretes. slump, air content, slump loss and setting time of the fresh concrete were determined.
furthermore, indonesia experiences a yearly increase in the need for building material, including concrete, due to the rise in development. smooth and coarse aggregate materials are required to manufacture concrete with the inappropriate disposal of waste marble, adversely impacting environmental pollution.
pared by using coarse aggregates of barite, magnetite, goethite and serpentine with an addition. of 10% silica fume (sf), 20% fly ash (fa) and 30% ground granulated blast furnace slag (ggbfs) to the total content of opc. the compressive strength of hardened concrete was determined after 7, 28 and 90 days.
however, this does not mean that granite and marble shouldn’t be used – they are both highly recyclable and reusable, as well as durable. these materials can be recycled and used in a number of different products such as concrete mixture, landscaping,
in this situation, marble waste has been used as aggregate in asphalt pavements. however, little is known on the influence of marble wastes as aggregate in concrete paving blocks on the properties of those blocks. this while recently concrete block pavements have
the use of recycled concrete, crushed to proper-size concrete aggregate, has also demonstrated successful performance. recycled concrete will have a higher absorption and lower specific gravity than conventional aggregates. to produce good quality, durable concrete containing a portion of recycled concrete aggregate often requires trial concrete mixes and close monitoring of the properties of the
this paper reports the results of an experimental study on various concrete mixes using quarry dust, 10mm (3/8”) gravel and admixture for the development of enhanced strength in concrete. concrete mixes of 1:1:2 and 1:2:1 was subjected to standard laboratory tests to determine their physical characteristics of aggregates as well as the concrete mixes in their wet and hardened states. a total of 144 cubes
however, this does not mean that granite and marble shouldn’t be used – they are both highly recyclable and reusable, as well as durable. these materials can be recycled and used in a number of different products such as concrete mixture, landscaping, aggregate fill, walkways or simply reinstallation.
glass aggregate can replace part or all of the sand and gravel in concrete, for effects that range from colorful terrazzo, to granite- or marble-like finishes, to concrete that reflects light like a mirror. glass aggregate can even be used to produce concrete that literally glows. [8] slag aggregate
recycled plastics (high-density polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, and polypropylene) were used as coarse aggregates in concrete mixtures to alter and improve the thermal properties of buildings. two similar retail buildings were designed and constructed in lansing, mich., one with normal concrete (control) and the other with high content of recycled mixed plastics.
in the present study attempts have been made to obtain sustainable and cost effective concrete product by use of marble waste. aggregate obtained from marble quarry waste was used as 75% part of coarse aggregate and rest was conventional coarse aggregate. it was observed that, compressive strength was almost same as that of the control concrete.
a comprehensive overview of the published literature on the sustainable use of marble dust in concrete is being presented. the impact of the replacement of conventional cement by marble slurry has been studied on the properties of concrete such as in terms of fresh, hardened, and durability properties of concrete.
roman concrete (opus caementicium), like modern concrete, is an artificial building material composed of an aggregate, a binding agent, and water. aggregate is essentially a filler, such as gravel, chunks of stone and rubble, broken bricks, etc. binding agent is a substance which is mixed with the aggregate wet (water added) and solidifies when it dries, or 'sets.'
conclusions due to marble dust, it proved to be very effective in assuring very good cohesiveness of mortar and concrete. from the above study, it is concluded that the marble dust can be used as a replacement material for cement ; and 5% replacement of marble dust gives an excellent result in strength aspect and quality aspect. the results showed that the substitution of 5% of the cement
marble industry contributes significantly to the socio-economic development of any country. due to the abundance of marble reserves, pakistan relies on marble industry, which in turn contributes to its gdp. marble powder (mp), produced from the marble industry is also increasing, which constantly remains a source of hazards to the environment.
tests on lightweight concrete using pumice stone as a lightweight aggregate: for this project, we got pumice stone as big as 50 mm size. so we crushed it to the size less than 20 mm. the mix design for the first sample was decided based on studies. then further samples were made by changing some proportions in the previous ones. sample no. 1: 1 cube
from old concrete set before beginning the experiment. the hardened properties of concrete using ferrochrome slag aggregate are studied by casting cubes, cylinders and prisms.fresh concrete being in slurry form requires good moulds to shape it to required form. so the moulds ought to be inflexible and solid to hold the heaviness of
