The performance of concrete using stone dust as a replacement to sand. Sand was replaced by quarry dust from 0 to at an increment of 25%. Compressive strength and tensile strength tests were conducted using 43 grade OPC in M20 concrete. Compressive strength was computed at the age of 7 days, 28 days, and 60 days.
As construction activity continues to increase on a daily basis, the demand for fine and coarse aggregates is also rising. However, relying on a few sources would quickly deplete the natural sources of aggregates. In Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan, costly coarse pit sand from northern areas is used for concrete, as the local river sands (Ravi and Chenab) are fine …

There were in all 5 mixes in each grade of concrete including control mix and four mixes with crusher dust as a partial replacement of natural sand.
The foundry sand is normally of a higher quality than the typical bank run or natural sands used in fill construction sites. The sands form the outer shape of the mould cavity. In this study, an attempt has been made to find the suitability of quarry dust and foundry sand as fine aggregate.
The performance of concrete using stone dust as a replacement to sand. Sand was replaced by quarry dust from 0 to at an increment of 25%. …
The suitability of crushed stone dust waste as fine aggregate for concrete has been assessed by comparing its basic properties with that of conventional concrete made with natural sand....
The use of stone dust in concrete provides environmental benefits by reducing the impacts produced by the extraction of natural sand. The use of this material can also offer economic advantages, …
Both sand and stone dust has various advantages, so the choice is usually a matter of preference for the individual. One of the main differences between the two is that, unlike stone dust, sand is porous, which means water will drain out. During freeze and thaw cycles this is ideal as it will prevent any potential damage to the pavers.

alternative to natural sand. Keywords: Natural sand, Manufactured sand, stone dust, River sand, properties of concrete. INTRODUCTION Concrete has become the most widely and commonly used construction material in the world due to rapid growth in global infrastructure. This has put a lot of pressure on the concrete industry to produce a lot of
replacement of natural river sand in concrete. Use of stone dust in concrete not only improve the quality of concrete but also conserve the natural river sand for future generations. Studies shows that stone dust can be used as an alternate material for natural sand to some extend for the preparation of concrete.
Stone dust is a waste material obtained from crusher plants. It has potential to be used as partial replacement of natural river sand in …
Manufactured sand can serve as a substitute for natural sand and is produced from suitable natural stone by crushing screening and washing to achieve the desired fine …
Abstract–The main objective of this research is to investigate the performance of concretes contained marble dust as a cement replacement, mix was prepared with cement and sand blended with marble dust with replacement from 10%, 20%, 25% and 30%.The investigation indicates that replacement of cement by marble …
Concrete is a compound material composed of fine aggregates and coarse aggregate bonded together with fluid cement that hardens over time.The deficit of natural sand arises the need of...
Production and construction quality control of tailings sand concrete. 1. The surface of tailings sand is rough and has a large porosity. In order to improve the workability of concrete, a certain amount of mineral admixtures should be added to the tailings sand concrete, such as Class II or above fly ash, slag powder, etc. 2.
Stone dust, sometimes called rock dust, is a byproduct of crusher run that's provided the bedding layer for many a paver project over the years. While it can work in some construction applications, there's a growing recognition that sand – washed concrete sand in particular – has proven …
Abstract: Quarry dust is considered as a possible source of natural sand or fine aggregate in concrete construction work. This could reduce the problem of dumping of quarry dust as a byproduct from stone crusher factory. The experimental work investigates the optimum quarry dust percentage which can be
the natural sand in concrete control mixes of M25 and M30 grades designed for 100 to 120mm slump at replacement levels of 30%, 40%, 50% and 60% using Portland …
this case the stone dust was added to concrete without any processing or adjustment. So, concrete samples were made by replacing varying percentages of natural sand by stone dust in 30% and by weight. All the concrete mixtures were performed using IPT/EPUSP's method.13 The workability was fixed at 80±10 mm based in the slump
The stone dust is not only the alternate but is superior in different ways. Literature Review: 1. Stone Dust in Concrete: Effect on Compressive Strength: Stone dust is a waste …
tests on fly ash, coarse sand, stone dust and river bed materials for their use in the sub base materials of the flexible pavements. Shanker and Ali(1992) have studied engineering properties of rock flour and reported that the rock flour can be used as alternative material in place of sand in concrete based on grain size data.
