The study on concrete includes determination of compressive strength and split tensile strength of different grades of concrete. Properties of aggregate affect the durability and performance of concrete, so fine aggregate is an

Quarry dust is a waste obtained during quarrying process. It has very recently gained good attention to be used as an effective filler material instead of fine aggregate. Also, the use of quarry dust as the fine aggregate decreases the cost of concrete production in terms of the partial replacement for natural river sand.

corrosion resistance behavior of inhibitors in concrete containing quarry dust as fine aggregate," Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, vol. 6, no. 11, pp. 124–135, 2011. [12] R. P. Nanda, A. K. Das, and N. Moharana, "Stone crusher dust as a fine aggregate in concrete for paving

Though the previous researcher found the good co-relation in between these strength but the content of the dust as fine aggregate in the concrete is not more appealing. The formula obtained is Y = 0.07892 * X + 1.544, where X is the compressive strength, if the value of the compressive strength is multiplied by the factor of 0.07892 and the ...

Key Words: Cement, Sawdust, Quarry dust, Fine aggregate. 1. INTRODUCTION Concrete is that probable mix of cement, water, sand and coarse aggregate that hardens into a super strong building material. River sand used as fine aggregate in concrete is derived from river bank. River sand has been the

Saifuddin (2001)[8] studied the influence of partial replacement of sand with quarry dust and cement with mineral admixtures on the compressive strength of concrete (Gambhir, 1995), whereas Celik and Marar[10] investigated the effect of partial replacement of fine aggregate with crushed stone dust at different percentages in the properties of ...

Replacement of quarry dust with fine aggregate at a ratio of 30 percent produces the best results, but beyond that, the strength obtained gradually diminishes. It has been shown that increasing the proportion of quarry dust in concrete may increase its workability by as much as thirty percent for M40 grade concrete.

This work is related to study the compressive strength of concrete using quarry dust as fine aggregate instead of sand and 10mm washed aggregate instead of conventional granite. Three mixes of 1 ...

CONCLUSIONS In this experimental investigation, an attempt has been made to use Quarry dust to replace the fine aggregates in concrete. Following are some of the conclusions drawn from the results of this investigation: 1. Quarry dust can be used as a finer material which can reduce the voids in concrete. 2.

Oorkalan et al. (2020) combined quarry dust with coir pith as fine aggregate in fly ash concrete. It was observed that the increase in the quarry dust content from 0% to 75% by the total mass of fine aggregate, there was a corresponding decrease in the compressive strength of concrete, disregarding the composition of fly ash of the concrete.

To reduce the impact of the quarry dust on environment and humans, this waste can be used to produce a new product by partially replacing fine aggregates with quarry dust in concrete.

Crusher Dust/Quarry Dust: Byproducts of the crushing process in quarries, crusher dust or quarry dust can also be used as a fine aggregate. These materials are finely graded and can contribute to improving the workability of concrete. ... and durability of the resulting concrete. Fine aggregate particles range in size from smaller than 75 ...

In quarrying activities, rock is extracted and transformed into aggregate of various sizes for civil engineering applications. In this process waste fine aggregates (dust waste) are generated. The disposal of this type of waste is a further cost in the extraction process, but also a possible cause of environmental pollution (e.g. leaching into water reserves, atmospheric pollution as a result ...
