strength enhancement of concrete made from artificial sand to encourage the use of locally available artificial sand promotes to study to check it suitable replacement percentage in the concrete. 3.Material: 3.1. Cement Ordinary Portland cement of 43 grades confirming to IS 12269-1987 was used. The physical properties are tabulated as shown below
Learn MoreOn comparing their Mechanical Properties, concrete containing M-sand obtained from Karur showed 10.71%, 12.15% and 8.22% increase in Compressive Strength, Split Tensile Strength and Flexural Strength when compared to the conventional concrete at the end of 28 days curing. Key
Learn MoreProperties of Concrete Concrete is an artificial conglomerate stone made essentially of Portland cement, water, and aggregates. Properties of Concrete While cement in one form or another has been around for centuries, the type we use was invented in 1824 in Britain. It was named Portland cement because it looked like the

[4] Prof. Wakchure, M.R., Er Shaikh A.P. "Effect of Types of Fine Aggregate on Mechanical Properties of Cement
Learn MoreADVERTISEMENTS: Several mechanical properties of aggregate are of interest for the manufacture of concrete, specially high strength concrete subjected to high wear. Some of them are discussed here in brief: 1. Toughness 2. Hardness 3. Specific Gravity 4. Porosity of Aggregate 5. Bulking of Sand. Property # 1. Toughness: It is defined as the resistance []
Learn MoreThe Concrete Sand: This Sand is usually used in the concrete works; this Sand is generally uses called by coarse Sand. The excellent modulus of concrete Sand should not more than the 4% silt and should in the 2.6 to 3.6 it's been pretty good. The Utility Sand: The Utility sand is the type of fine Sand. This Sand is usually made from the quartz.
Learn MorePhysical Prosperities of Aggregate : Grading Grading is the particle-size distribution of an aggregate as determined by a sieve analysis using wire mesh sieves with square openings. As per IS:2386(Part-1) Fine aggregate : 6 standard sieves with openings from 150 μm to 4.75 mm. (150 μm, 300 μm, 600 μm, 1.18mm, 2.36mm,
Learn MoreThis paper presents experimental results on some physical and mechanical properties of concrete containing sawdust. Concrete specimens having various cement to sawdust ratios of 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3
Learn MoreAggregate" is a collective term for the mineral materials such as sand, gravel and crushed stone that are used with a binding medium (such as water, bitumen, portland cement, lime, etc.) to form compound materials (such as asphalt concrete and portland cement concrete).
Learn MoreThe more compact grained and heavier a stone the harder it is. Due to alternate wetting and drying the resulting crushing strength can be reduced even up to 30-40%. Being dry stones allow more crushing strength than when wet. It is the ability of a stone to endure and maintain its essential and distinctive characteristics i.e. resistance to decay, strength and
Learn MoreBoth concrete made using artificial sand and natural sand are moderate to chloride permeability. In water absorption test we observed after 24 hours curing, the increase in weight of both natural sand and artificial sand blocks are less than 3% that means both concrete are low absorber hence concretes are good quality.
Learn More10.12.2018 · The environmental factors that could deteriorate the mechanical properties of concrete-filled FRP tubes/wraps include moisture, alkalinity, extreme temperature, thermal cycling (e.g., heating and cooling), freezing and thawing, creep, fatigue and exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
Learn Moreeffort, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) technique was applied for simulating and predicting the physical and mechanical properties of light weight aggregate concrete in fresh and hardened states. The current paper introduced the (ANN) technique to investigate the effect of light local weight aggregate on the performance
