The Quarry rock dust can be an economic alternative to the river sand. Quarry Rock Dust can be defined as
residue, tailing or other non-voluble waste material after the extraction and processing of rocks to form fine
particles less than 4.75mm. Usually, Quarry Rock Dust is used in large scale in the highways as a surface
finishing material and also used for manufacturing of hollow blocks and lightweight concrete prefabricated
Elements. This project presents the feasibility of the usage of Quarry Rock Dust as hundred percent substitutes
for Natural Sand in concrete. Design Mix for M30 and M40 has been calculated using IS 10262-2009 for both
conventional concrete and quarry dust concrete. Tests were conducted on cubes, cylinders and beams to study
the strength of concrete by using Quarry Rock Dust and the results were compared with the Natural Sand
Concrete. Cement motor ratios of 1:3 and 1:6 are prepared and observe the percentage of water absorption in
both Quarry Rock Dust and Natural sand for plastering.
IRJET- A Review on Behaviour of ECO Green Concrete in Construction IndustryIRJET Journal
This document reviews the behavior of eco-friendly or "green" concrete in the construction industry. It discusses how green concrete uses industrial and construction waste materials like fly ash and demolished concrete rubble as partial replacements for natural aggregates and cement. Using these recycled materials reduces environmental impacts by lowering CO2 emissions in cement production and diverting waste from landfills. The document outlines the materials used in green concrete, its environmental benefits like increased longevity and reduced energy usage compared to traditional concrete. It also discusses production methods and properties of green concrete, concluding it can reduce the construction industry's CO2 emissions while benefiting from cost savings compared to conventional concrete.
This document provides an introduction to quarry stone dust and fly ash as alternative materials to river sand in concrete production. It discusses research showing quarry stone dust and fly ash can replace up to 40% and 20% of sand respectively while maintaining or increasing strength. The document outlines the physical requirements and benefits of using fly ash, including increased workability, strength over time, and durability. It notes fly ash reduces permeability, corrosion of steel reinforcement, efflorescence, shrinkage, and heat of hydration while increasing resistance to sulfate attack, freezing and thawing, and alkali-silica reaction.
Partial Use of stone dust in concrete as an alternative of sandRohan chansoriya
Partial Use of stone dust in concrete as an alternative of sand
Stone dust can serve as a partial substitute for sand in concrete. Using stone dust from 10-50% as a replacement for sand can increase the compressive strength of concrete cubes by 8-27% at 7 and 28 days. However, workability decreases with higher replacement levels, requiring a higher dosage of superplasticizer. This increases the cost of the concrete by 5-8%. Stone dust meets Indian standards for use as a fine aggregate in concrete and can help conserve natural resources while providing an economic use of waste stone dust from crushing zones. Further testing is needed to determine the optimal replacement level and quality control measures for site use.
Replacement of Natural Fine Aggregate With Air Cooled Blast Furnace Slag An I...IJERA Editor
The aim of the investigation is to replace natural fine aggregatewith Air Cooled Blast Furnace Slag in OPC concrete. At present, nearly million tons of slag is being produced in the steel plants, in India. The generation of slag would be dual problem in disposal difficulty and environmental pollution. Some strategies should be used to utilize the slag effectively. Considering physical properties of metallurgical slags and a series of possibilities for their use in the field of civil constructions, this report demonstrates the possibilities of using air cooled blast furnace slag as partial replacement of sand in concrete. A total of five concrete mixes, containing 0%, 12.5%, 25%, 37.5% and 50% partial replacement of regular sand with air cooled blast furnace slag are investigated in the laboratory. These mixes were tested to determine axial compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength for 7days, 28days, 56days and 90days.

This document summarizes a student project that investigates using granite cutting dust (GCD) and steel fibers to create an economical and stronger concrete. The project will test different replacement percentages of sand with GCD and steel fibers to determine optimum amounts. Tests will examine the composite material's compressive strength, tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, flexural strength, corrosion resistance, acid resistance, water absorption and sorptivity. If successful, the concrete could be used for industrial flooring, pavements, tunnel linings and other applications.
This document summarizes research on using foundry sand as a partial replacement for natural sand in concrete. It reviews 14 research papers that studied the effects on properties of fresh and hardened concrete like strength, durability and workability. Most studies found that replacing up to 20-30% of natural sand with foundry sand resulted in higher compressive and tensile strengths compared to normal concrete, while workability decreased as replacement increased due to fine particles in foundry sand. Water absorption generally increased with higher replacement. However, all studies concluded that concrete with foundry sand partial replacement can be suitable for structural or nonstructural uses. Further research is needed to study concrete with 100% replacement.
Improved Concrete Properties Using Quarry Dust as Replacement for Natural SandIJERD Editor
Concrete plays a major role in the construction industry. Natural sand is a prime material used for
the preparation of concrete and also plays an important role in Mix Design. Now a day’s river erosion and other
environmental issues have led to the scarcity of river sand. The reduction in the sources of natural sand and the
requirement for reduction in the cost of concrete production has resulted in the increased need to find new
alternative materials to replace river sand so that excess river erosion is prevented and high strength concrete is
obtained at lower cost. One such material is Quarry stone dust: a by-product obtained during quarrying process.
Attempts have been made to study the suitability of Quarry dust as sand replacing material and it has been found
that Quarry dust improves the mechanical properties of concrete as well as elastic modulus. The optimum
compressive strength is achieved at the proportion of fine to coarse with 60:40 ratio

Abstract This paper presents the results, obtained after replacement of fine and coarse aggregates, in concrete mix, with tyre rubber. The tyre rubber, which has been used in the present study, is obtained after the mechanical trituration process of post – consumed tyres from trucks. Researchers have investigated, over the years, the use of recycled tyre rubber waste as a replacement for aggregate in concrete and its effectiveness. “Rubcrete-Mix” which would result from such replacement is found to have many engineering applications and holds promise in future. Rubcrete also possesses good mechanical properties and is considered to be one of the best and economical ways of recycling the used tyres. The present experimental study has the aim of arriving at the optimum quantity of the replacement material for the aggregates in concrete mixtures, for various engineering applications. For achieving a proper bond with the surrounding concrete paste, the recycled aggregates have been designed with respect to their size, shape and gradation. With the water – cement ratio being kept constant fine and coarse aggregate has been replaced with tyre rubber powder and chipped rubber and also cement has been replaced with silica fume. In preparing the concrete, Portland slag cement has been used along with super plasticizer less than 1% by weight of cement to achieve required workability of the resulting concrete. Furthermore, durability studies have been conducted and mixes have been designed for M30 grade concrete. Keywords: Concrete Mix, Mechanical Properties, Rubber Powder, Chipped Rubber, Silica fume.
Studies on quarry dust as partial replacement of fine aggregates in concreteIJLT EMAS
Natural sand is most commonly used fine aggregates
in the production of concrete possess the problem of acute
shortage in many areas. Quarry dust can be used as an economic
alternative to the natural sand. In this investigation an attempt is
made to utilize quarry dust as a partial substitute for natural
sand in producing concrete. Natural sand is replaced by Quarry
dust at an interval of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%. Mix
proportions for M20 concrete is prepared with reference to IS:
10262-2009 and IS: 456-2000 for the study of workability.
Compressive strength and Flexural strength test results are
compared with the conventional concrete. 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 strength at 20% replacement. Good
correlation was observed between compressive strength and
flexural strength. It was observed that the addition of quarry
dust that would replace the fine material at particular
proportion has displayed an enhancing effect on properties of
concrete. This investigation proves that quarry dust can be used
as a partial substitute for natural sand in preparing concrete.
IRJET- Partial Replacement of Sand with Sawdust in ConcreteIRJET Journal
This document presents research on partially replacing sand with sawdust in concrete mixtures. Sawdust was used to replace sand at 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% by weight. Concrete cubes, beams, and cylinders were cast and tested for compressive, flexural, and split tensile strength at 7, 14, and 28 days. The results showed that compressive, flexural, and split tensile strength generally decreased as the sawdust replacement ratio increased. However, satisfactory strength results were obtained at a 5% sawdust replacement ratio for compressive and split tensile strength tests, and at a 10% replacement ratio for flexural strength tests. Using sawdust in concrete provides benefits like lighter weight

Strength behaviour of foundry sand on modified high strength concreteeSAT Journals
Abstract Metal foundries use a large amount of sand as part of the metal casting process. Foundry industries generally recycle and reuse the used foundry sand many times in casting process. When the sand can no longer be reused in the foundry, it is removed from the foundry and is termed as "foundry waste sand." Like many waste products, foundry sand has beneficial applications to other industries. A mixture of silica sand coated with a thin film of burnt carbon and residual binder with traces of dust is termed as foundry sand. From the previous available literature it was found that replacement of sand by foundry sand by certain initial percentages gives a marginal increase in hardened properties of normal strength concrete. In the present work, fine aggregate is replaced by foundry sand with percentages and tests were performed for hardened properties of modified high strength concrete for all replacement levels.

A Study on self-Compacting Concrete Using Portland Slag Cement with Partial R...IJERA Editor
Concrete plays a vital role as a construction material in the world. In the present scenario, waste materials from various industries are added to the mix. Over 400 million tons of waste materials are being produced by various industries every year. Foundries successfully recycle and reuse the sand many times in a foundry. When the sand can no longer be reused in the foundry, it is removed from the foundry and is termed as Foundry sand. Foundry sand production is nearly 6 to 10 million tons annually. There is a possibility of substituting natural fine aggregate with waste foundry sand which offers technical, economic and environmental advantages which are of great use in the construction sector. The construction industry is now slowly becoming aware of the environmental issues and other sustainable development issues for cement and concrete industries. It is looking for the ways and means to develop building products, which will increase the life span and quality. This thesis presents an experimental investigation on strength aspects like compressive, split tensile and flexural strength of Self Compacting Concrete (SSC) containing an industrial waste foundry sand. It is used as fine aggregate in varying proportions, replacing the fine aggregate with foundry sand as percentages of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%. For this green SCC, all SCC tests are performed as per EFNARC guidelines i.e. slump flow, L-box, V funnel and T50 tests are carried out.
Experimental investigation on concrete by replacing crusher dust as fine aggr...eSAT Journals
Abstract In this present work we identified and investigated the use of crusher dust and granite floor slab chips in concrete as an alternative fine aggregate and coarse aggregate respectively, the tests were conducted on standard concrete cubes (150 mm x 150 mm x 150 mm), cylinders (150 mm x 300 mm) and prisms (100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm). Tests on the physical properties of crusher dust, granite chips and its influence on the strength of fresh and hardened state, along with a comparative study with the concrete of river sand are made. The properties investigated were specific gravity, fineness modulus, water absorption, free surface moisture, bulk density and grading zone. Tests were conducted on 6 cubes, 6 cylinders and 6 prisms for M20 grade mix design with sand and crusher dust as fine aggregates, granite metal and granite floor slab chips as coarse aggregates. The strength parameters compressive strength, Split-Tensile strength and flexural strength were compared at 7 days and 28 days respectively. Mix design procedure in accordance with IS 10262-2009, IS 456-2000 and Sp 23-1982 using 20mm coarse aggregate was adopted for investigation. The investigation indicates that crushed stone dust has vast potential as fine aggregate in concrete construction. Crusher dust not only reduces the cost of construction but also helps reduce the impact on environment by consuming the material hitherto considered as a waste product with few applications. Keywords: Crusher Dust, Granite Floor Slab Chips, Concrete Mix.
AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON PROPERTIES OF THE CONCRETE FOR REPLACEMENT OF SAND B...IAEME Publication
The demand of natural sand in the construction industry has consequently increased resulting in the reduction of sources and an increase in price. In such a situation stone dust can be an economical alternative to the river sand. The effect of water cement ratio on fresh and hardened properties of concrete with fully replacement of natural sand by stone dust was investigated. Concrete mix design of M40 grade was done according to Indian standard code (IS: 10262).The main
objective of the present investigation is two cements are selected Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) & Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) - 43 grade to evaluate the possibilities of using stone dust as a replacement by fine aggregate along with super plasticizers at a dosage of 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% & 2.0% by weight of cement
Modifications of construction materials have an important bearing on the building sector. Several attempts have been therefore made in the building material industry to put to use waste material products, e.g., worn out tyres, into useful and cost effective items. Success in this regard will contribute to the reduction of waste material dumping problems by utilizing the waste materials as raw material for other products. The present proposal involves a comprehensive laboratory study for the newer application of this waste material in the preparation of fibrous concrete. The primary objective of investigation is to study the strength behavior i.e. compressive strength, impact resistance of rubberized concrete with rubber chips. Volume variation of rubber chips with replacement to course aggregate. The proposed work is aimed to study the effect of volume of rubber chips on the compressive strength. Chetak A.

This document presents the results of an experimental investigation on the effects of partially replacing sand with quarry dust in concrete. Several concrete mixes were prepared with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and 100% replacement of sand with quarry dust. The compressive strength and split tensile strength of the concrete generally decreased as the replacement level increased, though 20% replacement achieved slightly higher compressive strength than the control mix. The modulus of elasticity also decreased with higher replacement levels but remained within specifications. The study concluded that quarry dust can replace up to 20% of sand as a suitable alternative with minimal effects on strength properties.
This document discusses a study investigating the behavior of concrete with the addition of crumb rubber. A group of civil engineering students at Sharda University conducted an experiment replacing sand in concrete mixes with crumb rubber. The goal was to address the environmental challenge of waste tire disposal and explore potential uses of crumb rubber in concrete. The study examined the compressive and split tensile strengths of rubberized concrete mixes compared to normal concrete. There was a decline in compressive strength but increased ductility when crumb rubber was added. The document proposes uses for rubberized concrete in lightweight construction and infrastructure where shock absorption is beneficial.

Partial Replacement of Cement by Saw Dust Ash in Concrete A Sustainable ApproachIJERD Editor
Concrete industry is one of the largest consumers of natural resources due to which sustainability of concrete industry is under threat. The environmental and economic concern is the biggest challenge concrete industry is facing. In this paper, the issues of environmental and economic concern are addressed by the use of saw dust ash as partial replacement of cement in concrete. Cement was replaced by Saw Dust Ash as 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight for M-25 mix. The concrete specimens were tested for compressive strength, durability (water absorption) and density at 28 days of age and the results obtained were compared with those of normal concrete. The results concluded the permissibility of using Saw Dust Ash as partial replacement of cement up to 10% by weight for particle size of range 90micron.
The document discusses a study on the behavior of beams made with concrete where 10% of the coarse aggregate is replaced with waste rubber. Beams were cast with normal concrete and rubberized concrete. The rubberized concrete beams were tested and their load vs deflection behavior, initial cracking load, ultimate load, and stress-strain curves were compared to normal concrete beams. The results showed that using 10% rubber replacement led to an up to 10% reduction in ultimate load capacity but higher initial cracking loads. Thus, partially replacing coarse aggregate with waste rubber can help utilize waste while maintaining much of the strength of normal concrete.

Mud is a versatile material which finds application in construction industry as mud blocks for wall
construction, mud mortar for binding and plastering and as tiles for flooring and roofing. It is universally
accepted as an environment friendly and user friendly material for construction from time immemorial. The
state of Kerala, where nature imprints its heritage witnessed numerous mud constructions in the form of
traditional buildings, ancient palaces and monumental buildings irrespective of the size of the buildings
and status of the owners. Yet its utilization as a construction material has come down drastically over a
past few decades with the advent of cement and concrete. In a state like Kerala, where there is ample
scope for procuring mud, it is high time that its potential as building material has been fully utilized. The
potential of mud as a sustainable building material has been overviewed by the same authors in the first
phase of investigation. As the second phase experimental work was conducted to compare the properties of
mud mortar with conventional mortars so as to check the feasibility of using mud as mortar. The effect of
stabilizers such as cow dung, cement and lime on raw mud has been studied in this paper. This paper also
checks the effect of fibres on the durability of reinforced mud mortar.
This document presents a study on the use of waste foundry sand as a partial replacement for fine aggregate in concrete. Five concrete mixes were tested with fine aggregate replaced by foundry sand at 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. Tests were performed to determine the compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength of the concrete mixes at curing periods of 7, 14, and 28 days. The results showed that concrete with 30% replacement of fine aggregate with foundry sand achieved comparable strengths to normal concrete in all tests. Therefore, the study concluded that 30% replacement of fine aggregate with foundry sand provides an economic and environmentally friendly concrete mix.

It is used as fine aggregate in varying proportions, replacing the fine aggregate with foundry sand as percentages of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%. For this green SCC, all SCC tests are performed as per EFNARC guidelines i.e. slump flow, L-box, V funnel and T50 tests are carried out.
Experimental investigation on concrete by replacing crusher dust as fine aggr...eSAT Journals
Abstract In this present work we identified and investigated the use of crusher dust and granite floor slab chips in concrete as an alternative fine aggregate and coarse aggregate respectively, the tests were conducted on standard concrete cubes (150 mm x 150 mm x 150 mm), cylinders (150 mm x 300 mm) and prisms (100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm). Tests on the physical properties of crusher dust, granite chips and its influence on the strength of fresh and hardened state, along with a comparative study with the concrete of river sand are made. The properties investigated were specific gravity, fineness modulus, water absorption, free surface moisture, bulk density and grading zone. Tests were conducted on 6 cubes, 6 cylinders and 6 prisms for M20 grade mix design with sand and crusher dust as fine aggregates, granite metal and granite floor slab chips as coarse aggregates. The strength parameters compressive strength, Split-Tensile strength and flexural strength were compared at 7 days and 28 days respectively. Mix design procedure in accordance with IS 10262-2009, IS 456-2000 and Sp 23-1982 using 20mm coarse aggregate was adopted for investigation. The investigation indicates that crushed stone dust has vast potential as fine aggregate in concrete construction. Crusher dust not only reduces the cost of construction but also helps reduce the impact on environment by consuming the material hitherto considered as a waste product with few applications. Keywords: Crusher Dust, Granite Floor Slab Chips, Concrete Mix.

The demand of natural sand in the construction industry has consequently increased resulting in the reduction of sources and an increase in price. In such a situation stone dust can be an economical alternative to the river sand. The effect of water cement ratio on fresh and hardened properties of concrete with fully replacement of natural sand by stone dust was investigated. Concrete mix design of M40 grade was done according to Indian standard code (IS: 10262).The main
objective of the present investigation is two cements are selected Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) & Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) - 43 grade to evaluate the possibilities of using stone dust as a replacement by fine aggregate along with super plasticizers at a dosage of 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% & 2.0% by weight of cement
Modifications of construction materials have an important bearing on the building sector. Several attempts have been therefore made in the building material industry to put to use waste material products, e.g., worn out tyres, into useful and cost effective items. Success in this regard will contribute to the reduction of waste material dumping problems by utilizing the waste materials as raw material for other products. The present proposal involves a comprehensive laboratory study for the newer application of this waste material in the preparation of fibrous concrete. The primary objective of investigation is to study the strength behavior i.e. compressive strength, impact resistance of rubberized concrete with rubber chips. Volume variation of rubber chips with replacement to course aggregate. The proposed work is aimed to study the effect of volume of rubber chips on the compressive strength. Chetak A.

IRJET- Experimental Investigation on Partial Replacement of Sand by Quarry Du...IRJET Journal
This document presents the results of an experimental investigation on the effects of partially replacing sand with quarry dust in concrete. Several concrete mixes were prepared with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and 100% replacement of sand with quarry dust. The compressive strength and split tensile strength of the concrete generally decreased as the replacement level increased, though 20% replacement achieved slightly higher compressive strength than the control mix. The modulus of elasticity also decreased with higher replacement levels but remained within specifications. The study concluded that quarry dust can replace up to 20% of sand as a suitable alternative with minimal effects on strength properties.
This document discusses a study investigating the behavior of concrete with the addition of crumb rubber.

Partial Replacement of Cement by Saw Dust Ash in Concrete A Sustainable ApproachIJERD Editor
Concrete industry is one of the largest consumers of natural resources due to which sustainability of concrete industry is under threat. The environmental and economic concern is the biggest challenge concrete industry is facing. In this paper, the issues of environmental and economic concern are addressed by the use of saw dust ash as partial replacement of cement in concrete. Cement was replaced by Saw Dust Ash as 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight for M-25 mix. The concrete specimens were tested for compressive strength, durability (water absorption) and density at 28 days of age and the results obtained were compared with those of normal concrete. The results concluded the permissibility of using Saw Dust Ash as partial replacement of cement up to 10% by weight for particle size of range 90micron.
The document discusses a study on the behavior of beams made with concrete where 10% of the coarse aggregate is replaced with waste rubber. Beams were cast with normal concrete and rubberized concrete. The rubberized concrete beams were tested and their load vs deflection behavior, initial cracking load, ultimate load, and stress-strain curves were compared to normal concrete beams. The results showed that using 10% rubber replacement led to an up to 10% reduction in ultimate load capacity but higher initial cracking loads. Thus, partially replacing coarse aggregate with waste rubber can help utilize waste while maintaining much of the strength of normal concrete.
EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MUD MORTAR IN COMPARISON WIT...civej
Mud is a versatile material which finds application in construction industry as mud blocks for wall
construction, mud mortar for binding and plastering and as tiles for flooring and roofing. It is universally
accepted as an environment friendly and user friendly material for construction from time immemorial. The
state of Kerala, where nature imprints its heritage witnessed numerous mud constructions in the form of
traditional buildings, ancient palaces and monumental buildings irrespective of the size of the buildings
and status of the owners. Yet its utilization as a construction material has come down drastically over a
past few decades with the advent of cement and concrete. In a state like Kerala, where there is ample
scope for procuring mud, it is high time that its potential as building material has been fully utilized. The
potential of mud as a sustainable building material has been overviewed by the same authors in the first
phase of investigation. As the second phase experimental work was conducted to compare the properties of
mud mortar with conventional mortars so as to check the feasibility of using mud as mortar. The effect of
stabilizers such as cow dung, cement and lime on raw mud has been studied in this paper. This paper also
checks the effect of fibres on the durability of reinforced mud mortar.

IRJET- An Experimental Investigation on Partial Replacement of Fine Aggregate...IRJET Journal
This document presents the results of an experimental study investigating the partial replacement of fine aggregate with two waste materials (marble powder and rice husk) in concrete. Concrete cubes were produced with 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% replacement levels of fine aggregate. The highest compressive strength was achieved with a 10% replacement of fine aggregate with both marble powder and rice husk. Therefore, the optimum replacement percentage was determined to be 10% for both waste materials. In conclusion, partially replacing fine aggregate with up to 10% waste marble powder or rice husk in concrete can increase mechanical properties like compressive strength.

This document summarizes a study on using waste marble sand as a replacement for natural sand in concrete. The researchers fully replaced natural sand with waste marble sand of size 1-2mm in an M20 grade concrete mix design according to Indian standards. Waste marble sand is a byproduct of the marble industry and disposing of it can cause environmental issues. Using it in concrete could provide an economical and eco-friendly building material. The study found that concrete with waste marble sand achieved higher compressive strength than conventional concrete, likely due to cementitious properties of the marble dust. This suggests waste marble sand is a suitable substitute for natural sand in concrete production.

The concrete industry is constantly looking for supplementary cementitious material with the objective of reducing the solid waste disposal problem. Fly ash (FA) and Quarry sand (QS) are some among the solid wastes generated by industry. The Quarry sand is one such material which can be used to replace sand as fine aggregate. To overcome from this crisis, partial replacement of natural sand (NS) with Quarry sand and partial replacement of cement with FA can be an economic alternative. This research is carried to study the effect of replacement of sand by Quarry sand and cement by fly ash with using admixture in concrete, especially in reference to permeable voids development, compressive strength, leaching of Ca(OH)2 in curing water and RCPT at 28, 56 and 90 days of age. A M25, M30, M40 Grade concrete were chosen for research. The mix design was carried out and three combinations were chosen, first combination using 100% Natural sand and 100% cement ( treated as controlled mix).In second combination 100%Natural sand is replaced by Quarry sand and cement remains100%. In third combination 30% cement is replaced by Fly ash and 45% Natural sand is replaced by Quarry sand (treated as critical mix). These were chosen from 30 combinations of variable % of Natural sand and Quarry sand and fly ash. The study is aim at understanding the performance of critical mix in reference to controlled mix and concrete containing 100% quarry sand. It is observed that if quarry and is used for concrete then suitable percentage natural sand and fly ash must be added to achieve desired compressive strength and performance of concrete.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

Abstract
The Quarry rock dust can be an economic alternative to the river sand. Quarry Rock Dust can be defined as
residue, tailing or other non-voluble waste material after the extraction and processing of rocks to form fine
particles less than 4.75mm. Usually, Quarry Rock Dust is used in large scale in the highways as a surface
finishing material and also used for manufacturing of hollow blocks and lightweight concrete prefabricated
Elements. This project presents the feasibility of the usage of Quarry Rock Dust as hundred percent substitutes
for Natural Sand in concrete. Design Mix for M30 and M40 has been calculated using IS 10262-2009 for both
conventional concrete and quarry dust concrete. Tests were conducted on cubes, cylinders and beams to study
the strength of concrete by using Quarry Rock Dust and the results were compared with the Natural Sand
Concrete. Cement motor ratios of 1:3 and 1:6 are prepared and observe the percentage of water absorption in
both Quarry Rock Dust and Natural sand for plastering.
Keywords: Quarry rock dust, Natural sand, Replacement, Mix design..
I. INTRODUCTION
Concrete is an artificial conglomera test one
made essentially of Portland cement, water, fine and
coarse aggregates. The mixture of the materials
results in a chemical reaction called hydration and a
change in the mixture from plastic to a solid state
occurs over a period of time. The cost of concrete
can be reduced by reducing cost alternative material,
instead of conventional materials. The world wide
consumption of fine aggregate in concrete
production is very high, and several developing
countries have encountered difficulties in meeting
the supply of natural fine aggregate in order to
satisfy the increasing needs of infrastructural
development in recent years. To overcome the stress
and demand for river fine aggregate, research and
practitioners in the construction industries have
identified some a lternative materials such as fly ash,
slag, limestone powder and siliceous stone powder.
In India attempts have been made to replace river
sand with quarry dust. The successful utilization of
quarry dust as fine aggregate would turn this was
material that causes disposal problem in to a
valuable resource. The utilization will also reduce
the strain on supply of natural fine aggregate, which
will also reduce the cost of concrete. The main
objective of the present investigation is to evaluate
the possibilities of using quarry dust as a
replacement to fine aggregate. During the present
study, 0%, 50%, 75% and 100% of traditional fine
aggregate was replaced with quarry dust.
Compression, split and flexural strengths were found
after 7 days and 28days of curing.
II. LITRATURE REVIEW
Previous Studies
Ilangovanaet al (2008) studied the feasibility of
usage of quarry rock dust as hundred percent
substitutes for natural sand in concrete. It is found
that the compressive, flexural strength and durability
studies of concrete made of quarry rock dust are
nearly 10% more than the conventional concrete.
Sivakumaret al (2011)presented a paper on the
hardened and durable properties of concrete using
quarry dust. His paper reports the experimental study
which investigated the influence of 100%
replacement of sand with quarry dust. Initially
cement mortar cube was studied with various
proportions of quarry dust (CM 1:3, CM 1:2, and
CM 1:1). The experimental results showed that the
addition of quarry dust for a fine to coarse aggregate
ratio of 0.6 was found to enhance the compressive
properties as well as elastic modulus.
Present Study
In the present investigation we design mix for
M30 and M40 has been calculated using IS 10262-

2009 for both conventional concrete and quarry dust
concrete. Tests were conducted on cubes, cylinders
and beams to study the strength of concrete by using
Quarry Rock Dust and the results were compared
with the Natural Sand Concrete. Cement motor ratios
of 1:3 and 1:6 are prepared and observe the
percentage of water absorption in both Quarry Rock
Dust and Natural sand for plastering. During the
present study, 0%, 50%, 75% and 100% of
traditional fine aggregate was replaced with quarry
dust. Compression, split and flexural strengths were
found after 7 days and 28days of curing.
III. MATERIAL AND METHODOLOGY
The materials used in research are:
1. Portland cement (53 grade)
2. Fine aggregate (4.75 mm down)
3. Coarse aggregate (20 mm down)
4. Quarry rock dust
5. Water
6. Admixtures
Cement:
Ordinary Portland cement of 53 grade
conforming to Indian Standard IS 12269-1987 was
used throughout the experimental program. Cement
must develop the appropriate strength. It must
represent the appropriate rheological behavior.
Generally same types of cements have quite
different rheological and strength characteristics,
particularly when used in combination with
admixtures and cementing material.
Fine Aggregate
Fine aggregate (sand) used for this entire
investigation for concrete was river sand conforming
to zone-II of IS: 383-1970. Fine aggregate normally
consists of natural, crushed, or manufactured sand.
The physical properties of fine aggregate like
specific gravity, gradation and fineness modulus are
tested in accordance with IS :2386.
Coarse Aggregate
Coarse aggregate crushed granite of 20 mm
down size has been used as coarse aggregate. The
physical properties of coarse aggregate like specific
gravity, Bulk density, impact value, gradation and
fineness modulus are tested in accordance with IS:
2386.
Quarry Rock Dust
Quarry Rock Dust can be defined as residue, tailing
or other non-voluble waste material after the
extraction and processing of rocks to form fine
particles less than Is Sieve 4.75mm. Quarry dust is
fine rock particles. When boulders are broken into
small pieces quarry dust is formed. It is gray in color
and it is like fine aggregate. Quarry dusts are
produced during the extraction and processing of
aggregates.
Application of Quarry rock dust;
1.It is being used as surface dressing in highway
work.
2. It is also used in the manufacturing of building
material, such as lightweight aggregates, bricks, tiles
and autoclave blocks.
3. Fiberrein forced pre-cast units are also made up of
this.
4. It is used in synthetic rock and kerbs.
5. Few more uses are in embankment construction,
landfill capping, filler applications,manufactured
sand, cement making, green roofs, straw and clay
blocks.
Properties of Quarry rock dust:
a. Resistant to heat and fire
b. Alkaline in presence of moisture
c. Non-plastic
d. Consistent chemistry
e. Excellent load bearing capacity
Water
The water, which is used for making concrete and
for curing, should be clean and free from harmful
impurities such as oil, alkali, acid, etc, in general, the
water, which is fit for drinking should be used for
making concrete.
Methodology
Concrete specimens were casted using 0%, 50%,
75% and 100% of replacement fine aggregate with
Quarry rock dust.
Number of specimens required for the experiment:
No
of cubes casted for compressive test is 96. No of
cylinders casted for split tensile strength is 48.
No of prisms casted for flexural strength is 28.
CHARACTERISTICS OF INGREDIENT
MATERIALS VAREID
Cement:
a) Specific Gravity Test: According to IS 2720 –
part – 3.Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of
a substance compared to the density (mass of the
same unit volume) of a reference
substance. Apparent specific gravity is the ratio of
the weight of a volume of the substance to the
weight of an equal volume of the reference
substance. The reference substance is nearly
always water for liquids or air for gases.
b) Fineness Test: According to IS 4031-1968.
Fineness is defined as the surface area of cement
particles per unit weight, means more number of
particles per unit weight. If the percentage of
fineness is more than 90 % the cement is supposed
to be fresh, if it is less than 90 % than that Cement
should be avoided to use . c)
Standard consistency Test: According toIS 4031

(Part 4) 1988 . The standard consistency of a cement
paste is defined as that consistency which will
permit the vicat plunger to penetrate to a depth of 5
to 7mm from the bottom of the vicatmould
Coarse Aggregates:
a) Sieve Analysis(IS: 383- 1970) A sieve
analysis (or gradation test) is a practice or procedure
used (commonly used in civil engineering) to assess
the particle size distribution (also called gradation)
of a granular material. The size distribution is often
of critical importance to the way the material
performs in use. A sieve analysis can be performed
on any type of non-organic or organic granular
materials including sands, crushed rock, clays,
granite, feldspars, coal, and soil, a wide range of
manufactured powders, grain and seeds, down to a
minimum size depending on the exact method.
Being such a simple technique of particle sizing, it is
probably the most common method.
b) Crushing Value: IS: 2386 -PART- 4) the
aggregate crushing value provides a relative measure
of resistance to crushing under a gradually applied
compressive load. To achieve a high quality of
concrete, aggregate possessing low aggregate
crushing value should be preferred.
FineAggregates:
a) Fineness modulus: Fineness Modulus(FM)is
used in determining the degree of uniformity of the
aggregate gradation. It is an empirical number
relating to the fineness of the aggregate. The higher
the FM is, the coarser the aggregate. b) Specific
Gravity: (IS: 2386- PART- 3).The specific gravity
of an aggregate is considered to beam ea sure of
strength or quality of the material. The specific
gravity test helps in the identification of stone.
