Experimental Investigation on Use of Copper Slag and Recycled Aggregate as a Fine Aggregate in Concrete

Abstract

Conservation of natural resources and preservation of environment is the essence of any modern development. In last few decades, construction activities increase rapidly. Itsss require more raw materials and it will result in shortage of material in future. Now a days there is trend of recycling and reusing material, which is partial solution of this problem. Also, Industrial wastes are used as raw material. It reduces the consumption of natural resources. Copper slag and recycled aggregate are the industrial waste and recycled material used as a fine aggregate in concrete. Both the material has same physical properties similar to the fine aggregate. By replacing 10% to 50% copper slag as fine aggregate, concrete produced. At the optimum content of copper slag, 10% to 50%of recycled aggregate replaced and the concrete produced.
