Experimental Behavior on Mechanical Properties of Concrete Using Industrial Byproducts

Abstract

The necessity of high strength concrete is increasing because of demands in the construction industry. To get the high strength for concrete by reducing the water content can achieve by adding the chemical admixture and some other properties also to be enhanced like durability, low permeability and good workability by adding pozzolanic materials to concrete.This study investigates the mechanical properties of concrete with industrial by product. Incorporation of these admixture reduces the cement content in concrete .The reduction of cement content means it minimize the environment impacts caused in cement production process and most of these materials are industrial by-products, problems with disposal also can be solved. As part of research efforts to develop cement less concrete using metakaolin and GGBS as binder, copper slag is partially replaced with fine aggregate. In this research, Portland cement was partially replaced by 5%, 10% of metakaolin and GGBS. This combination of mix ratio were taken for each 20%, 40%, 60% replacement of fine aggregate with copper slag. The water to cementations materials ratio was maintained at 0.38 for all mixes. The strength characteristics of the concrete were evaluated by conducting Compressive strength test for 28days,56days and 90days of curing and flexural &split tensile strength test were conducted for28&56days of curing on a M30 grade concrete.
