This document discusses the use of industrial waste materials as partial replacements for cement in concrete. Some common industrial wastes that can be used include fly ash, red mud, microsilica, ground granulated blast furnace slag, rice husk ash, and metakaolin. Using these materials improves the performance of concrete while also providing environmental benefits such as reducing the use of raw materials and fossil fuels in cement production and diverting waste from landfills. The document reviews the effects of different waste materials on the properties of concrete such as workability, compressive strength, tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity.
