Effect on Strength Properties of Concrete by using Prosopis Juliflora Wood Powder as Partial Replacemet of Sand
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
In today’s world the main emphasis is on green and sustainable development. River sand is one of the vital ingredient in the construction. Environmental concerns are being raised against uncontrolled extraction of river sand. But in presence of water it reacts with free lime and form hydrated products which helps in attaining good strength and also improving the durability. The arguments are mostly in regards to protect river beds against erosion and the importance having natural sand as a filter for ground water. So, prosopis juliflora wood powder is partially replaced with river sand.
