Comparative study of conventional concrete and Green concrete

Abstract

In today’s modern world there has been enormous development in the field of “Concrete Technology”. With this development, there has also been enormous use of concrete in our day today life. Concrete mainly comprises of cement, sand and aggregate as its main constituents, which when mixed with water in correct proportion gives a byproduct called as “Concrete”. The excess use of concrete has led to the environmental impact in terms of resources utilization as well as in terms of pollution. To overcome these impacts the concept of “Green Concrete” came into existence. Green Concrete is a concrete in which one or more of its constituents are replaced by a resource saving material, which ultimately has reduced environmental impacts in terms of both, resource utilization and pollution impacts together. The current paper is an experimental work carried out to assess the comparative study of “Green Concrete” and “Conventional Concrete” in terms of their “Compressive Strength” parameter. M25 grade of Concrete was designed to carry out this experimental test. A comparative study of “Green Concrete” with “Conventional Concrete” was made based on the curing techniques.i.e. “Water Submerged Curing” and “Steam Curing”.
