AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON USE OF ECO SAND AND SCBA IN CONCRETE

Abstract

Concrete is a complex material which is composed primarily of cement, fine aggregates and coarse aggregates mixed with portable water that hardens with time. Storage and safe disposal of industrial by product such as SCBA and Eco sand is a huge problem everywhere, reuse of these waste eliminates/reduce the problem. Eco sand is a by-product of cement manufacturing process and it poses a serious land fill problem. Hence, as a solution to the above mentioned issue, it can be used as an aggregate in concrete depending on its property. In this paper, investigation is done for a M25 grade of concrete. Compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength test were performed and results were analyzed. In this experiment fine aggregate is replaced as 0%, 15%, 20%, and 25% of its weight by Eco sand and cement is replaced as 0%, 10%, 15%, and 20% of its weight by Sugarcane Bagasse Ash in all concrete mix and their effects are studied. The ratio of 15% SCBA for cement with 20% Eco sand gives the maximum results it is observed that increases in strength.
