Replacement of quarry dust with fine aggregate at a ratio of 30 percent produces the best results, but beyond that, the strength obtained gradually diminishes. It has been shown that increasing the proportion of quarry dust in concrete may increase its workability by as much as thirty percent for M40 grade concrete.
اقرأ المزيدsand as fine aggregates in the production of concretes especially in Concrete. Quarry dust, a by-product from the crushing process during quarrying activities is one of such materials. Granite fines or rock dust is a by-product obtained during crushing of granite rocks and is also called quarry dust. In recent days there were
اقرأ المزيدThe concept of replacement of natural fine aggregate by quarry dust which is highlighted in the study could boost the consumption of quarry dust generated from quarries. By replacement of quarry dust, the requirement of land fill area can be reduced and can also solve the problem of natural sand scarcity.
اقرأ المزيدIt is found that 40% replacement of fine aggregate by quarry dust gives maximum result in strength than normal concrete and then decreases from 50%. The compressive strength is quantified for varying percentage and grades of concrete by replacement of sand with quarry dust.
اقرأ المزيدThe reduction in the sources of sand and the need to reduce the cost of construction projects has resulted in the increase need to identify alternative construction materials to sand as fine aggregates in the construction projects. Quarry dust a by- product from crushing process during quarrying activities is good alternative during …
اقرأ المزيدQuarry dust is a waste obtained during quarrying process. It has very recently gained good attention to be used as an effective filler material instead of fine aggregate. Also, the use of quarry dust as the fine aggregate decreases the cost of concrete production in terms of the partial replacement for natural river sand.
اقرأ المزيدThis research studies the corrosion on quarry dust mortars due to sulfuric acid. By fully using quarry dust instead of sand and w/c = 0.45, the mortar specimens are formed and cured for 28 days before immerse them into 5 % (W/W) of sulfuric acid solution. From the results, it is found that quarry dust mortars can resist the corrosion better than …
