This study evaluated the use of steel industry by-products, slag and slag sand, as partial replacements for river sand and ordinary Portland cement in cement mortar.
The compressive strength of mortar cubes containing 30% slag sand replacement of river sand was 38.71N/mm2 at 90 days, 17% higher than the reference. Mortar with 35% slag replacement of cement achieved 41.84N/mm2 at 90 days, 23% higher than the reference. Blending 30% slag and slag sand yielded 39.37N/mm2 at 90 days, an 18% increase over the reference.

Effect of Fly Ash Particles on the Mechanical Properties of Zn-22%Al Alloy vi...IOSR Journals
In the present investigation, a Zn-22%Al alloy is used as the matrix material and fly ash as the filler material. The composite is produced using powder metallurgy techniques. The fly ash is added in 2%, 4%, and 6% by wt% to the sintering metal. The composite is tested for hardness, density and tensile strength test. Microstructure examination is done using a high resolution optical microscope to obtain the distribution of fly ash in the Zn-Al matrix. Test results indicate that as fly ash content is increased, there is a considerable increase in hardness and tensile strength but decrease in density.

Many countries are witnessing a rapid growth in the construction industry which involves the use of natural resources for the development of the inf rastructure. In order to reduce dependence on natural aggregates as the main source of aggregate in concrete,artificially manufactured aggregates and artificial aggregates generated from industrial wastes provide an alternative for the construction industry. The present study encour aged the utilization of industrial waste copper slag as replacement of natural aggregates in concre te. The results indicate that the use of copper slag in concrete increases the flexural strength of about 17% with that of control mixture. It is recommended that up to 40% of copper slag can be us e as replacement of fine aggregates.
Studies on gold ore tailings as partial replacement of fine aggregates in con...IJLT EMAS
River sand is becoming scarce and meeting the demand
of fine aggregates in the construction industry is becoming a
challenging task. In this investigation an attempt is made to
utilize gold ore tailings as a partial substitute for river sand in
producing concrete. River sand is replaced with 5%, 10%, 15%,
20% and 25% gold ore tailings and the resulting fine aggregates
were used in concrete mix and it is compared with conventional
concrete. Mix proportions for M20 concrete were obtained for
five mixes as per guidelines given in IS: 10262-2009. Workability,
compressive strength and flexural strength are reported. The
strengths were obtained at the ages of 3, 7 and 28 days.
Compressive and flexural strength increased marginally from
5% to 15% replacement. There is a slight decrease in the
corresponding compressive and flexural strengths at 20%
replacement. Good correlation was observed between
compressive strength and flexural strength. It was observed that
the addition of gold ore tailings that would replace the fine
material at particular proportion has displayed an enhancing
effect on mechanical properties of concrete. This investigation
proves that gold ore tailings can be used as a partial substitute
for river sand in preparing concrete.
Laboratory Analysis of Fly Ash Mix Cement Concrete for Rigid Pavement.IJERA Editor
This experiment was conducted to investigate the engineering properties of fly ash cement concrete for rigid pavement construction. Results have shown that 30% of fly ash and 70% of cement has a superior performance. In addition, the use of fly ash would result in reduction of the cost of cement which is usually expensive in all construction materials. High strength of concrete can be made by this and the further integration of admixture or alternate adds to improve the properties of concrete. Test result of specimens indicates that the workability and strength chacteristcs are changed due to incorporation with fly ash. Slump test having an appropriate workable mix of a concrete, gave sufficient compressive strength and flexural strength. Test results of 28 days specimens have graphically interpolated for the different results and so that to calculate the optimum content of fly ash.
