Construction projects can benefit from using quarry dust, a by-product of the crushing process used in quarrying activities. Quarry dust is used as a sand alternative to create concrete that is thought to be stronger and more durable than typical concrete ingredients. It can be used as a whole or partial replacement for sand.

The quarry sand is the coarse fraction of the quarry powder and is being used as the fine aggregate in place of river sand in concrete production [3]. The fine quarry dust fraction is commercially unused material [4]. Therefore, utilization of waste material quarry dust in the production of artificial aggregates is examined in this study.

properties of Quarry Dust the suitability of those properties to enable them to be used as partial replacement materials for sand in concrete. Key Words: Quarry Dust, Fly ash, Workability, …

Concrete is the world's most consumable product next to water. Concrete is the most used construction material in the civil engineering. The quarry dust and foundry sand has been used as a partial replacement of the fine aggregate in the concrete. The quarry dust is obtained as a waste product in the quarry mines as a residue.

Concrete mechanical properties could be improved through adding different materials at the mixing stage. Quarry dust (QD) is the waste produced by manufactured sand machines and comprise approximately 30–40% of the total quantity of QD generated. When it dries, it transforms into a fine dust that poses a tremendous hazard to the environment by …

and 30 concrete. As for grade 20, quarry dust concrete records a lower compressive strength than river sand concrete. As generated quarry dust can be recommended to be used as a fine aggregate in structural concrete for higher grades. REFERENCES BS 882:1992, Specification for aggregates in concrete from natural sources for concrete.

The first concrete mixtures were prepared fully replacing of fine aggregates i.e sand with the Quarry dust ( & 0% Sand). Second mixtures were prepared by replacing of sand with the Quarry dust (80%) i.e., (80% Quarry dust & 20% sand). In third mixture both Quarry dust and sand partially used i.e., 50% Quarry dust and 50 % sand.

With the use of quarry dust as a replacement of sand the above said problem has been solved this is also good for the environment. Bederina M. et al. (2013) concentrated that ...

Raman et. al. (2011) examined the impact of using quarry dust in place of natural sand on the workability of concrete made with high strength rice husk ash. To get the desired strengths of 60 MPa and 70 MPa, respectively, two series of concrete, C60 and C70, were created. 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% of

The use of quarry dust is also in concrete is also a measure necessary for improvement of concrete strength. River sand was replaced with quarry dust for different mix designs of concrete for 0% ...

Quarry dust has been proposed as an alternative to river sand that gives additional benefit to cement during construction. In areas where constructors use this dust, there is a significant reduction of air pollution by the dust.

Both river sand concrete and quarry dust concrete for the selected water/cement ratio and mix ratio are suitable for non-structural applications and lightly-loaded members where high strength is ...
