Experimental Investigation of Acid Attack on Concrete with Marble Powder and Green Sand as Fine Aggregate Replacement
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
In this research, there is a need to recognize suitable alternative material in place of river sand. Thus the locally available and less expensive material Metakaolin, Green sand and Marble powder has been accepted as alternative material for natural sand. The purpose of this is to study the durability property of concrete with the replacement of fine aggregate. Concrete mix of M40 with Marble powder and green sand replacement of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% with fine aggregate and Metakaolin replacement is about 5% by weight of cement. Cubes, Cylinders and beams are to be casted, cured for the respective mix proportions and the strength characteristics of concrete such as compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength and durability of cube concrete at 28 days, 56 days and 90 days to be performed. The suitability of the replacement materials for fine aggregate has been assessed by comparing its strength and durability properties with that of conventional concrete.
