To Study the Variation in Compressive and Split Tensile Strength of Concrete by Using Various Binders
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper accentuates the effect of bentonite, sugarcane molasses, jaggery and polyvinyl acetate on strength properties of concrete. The experimentation has been carried out to assess the strength properties of concrete using these materials in concrete composition. Based on the literature, the main reason of usage of these materials is due to the binding property possessed by them. Three different percentages of polyvinyl acetate were chosen in the experimentation as 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3% respectively and keeping proportion of bentonite, sugarcane molasses and jaggery constant at 30%, 0.1% and 0.1% respectively by weight of cement. Cement was only replaced bentonite. Sugarcane molasses, jaggery and polyvinyl acetate were only added without replacing cement. However, the values of strength observed were at lower side initially, later gain in strength was observed. At 0.2% PVA composite proportion maximum strength was observed. The test results show some marginal strength variation at all proportions.
