Replacing Sand in Concrete; Materials and …
When considering economy and design, crushed sand can be used to partially or fully replace river sand from a concrete mix. Crusher Dust (Quarry Waste) In crusher dust, the particles (% finer than 150 microns) are commonly high, a major concern limiting its percentage replacement to a minimum with sand in a concrete mix. It can be replaced with ...
Partial Replacement of Sand with Quarry Dust in …
-The reduction in the sources of natural sand and the requirement for reduction in the cost of concrete production has resulted in the increased need to identify substitute material to sand 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.

Which material can be used as replacement for …
Granulated blast furnace slag ( GBFS) has been able to replace Sand to the amount of 70%. GBFS is byproduct of steel industry & hence this method is feasible at location where steel plant is located in close proximity. Copper slag is yet another r...
Can we make concrete using quarry dust as a …
Yes As quarry dust(also called as crushed sand) is a byproduct obtained after crushing of stones(rocks) to make aggregates. * Results have shown that the concrete ...
Impact of replacement of natural river sand with ...
In this research, M-25 grade concrete was produced from geopolymer fly ash sand (GFS) manufactured using fly ash and an alkaline activator solution as an alternative material to the natural river sand (NRS). The alkaline activator with 4 Molar NaOH solution and Na2SiO3/NaOH = 2:1 was used for the preparation of GFS. The mechanical and the durability characteristics of geopolymer fly ash sand ...
(PDF) Study on Performance of Quarry Dust as …
Quarry dust was used to replace sand at ratios of 75% and 100%, and four different water-to-cement ratios (w/c) of 0.52, 0.54, 0.56 and 0.58 were studied and compared. For a given w/c ratio, it ...
Effects of The Total and Partial Replacement of …
Sharp sand is now unsustainable due to large-scale depletion and this creates environmental problems. As environmental concerns and other constraints make the availability and use of sharp sand less attractive, a substitute or replacement product for concrete industry needs to be found. Sharp sand is most commonly used as fine aggregates in the production of concrete and an adequate substitute ...
What are the Materials for Replacement of Sand …
Granulated blast furnace slag is a waste of steel industry; its use can be best exploited as part replacement of sand in concrete. It can replace sand to the amount of 70 % in concrete mixes. Its Availability is limited, restricted to steel plant area. As Granulated blast furnace slag has high glass content with sharp particles, precautions ...
