Comparing the Compressive Strengths of Concrete Made with River Sand and Quarry Dust as Fine Aggregates July 2014 International Letters of Natural Sciences 20:179-189

Fine aggregate is the essential ingredient in concrete that consists of natural sand or crushed stone. The quality and fine aggregate density strongly influence the hardened properties of the concrete.. The concrete or mortar mixture can be made more durable, stronger and cheaper if you made the selection of fine aggregate on basis of grading zone, particle shape and surface texture, abrasion ...

Concrete is a mixture of water, cement or binder and aggregates (fine and coarse aggregate) and is a commonly used material for construction (Barritt, 1984). River sand has been the most popularly used fine aggregate in the production

of aggregates that may be used include sand, crushed-stone, gravel, slag, ashes, burned shale, and burned clay. Fine aggregates refer to the size of aggregate used in making concrete slabs and in providing smooth surfaces. Coarse aggregates are used for massive structures or sections of Concrete.

Fine aggregates are essentially any natural sand particles won from the land through the mining process. Fine aggregates consist of natural sand or any crushed stone particles that are ¼" or smaller.This product is often referred to as 1/4'" minus as it refers to the size, or grading, of this particular aggregate.

suggest that concrete containing mixtures of lateritic sand and quarry dust can be reasonably used in structural elements as for normal concrete (concrete with river sand as fine aggregate).

The two fine aggregates; sharp sand and quarry dust were obtained from bed of Unwana river and Amasiri quarry site respectively. Mix design used was 1:2:4 and 0.6 water cement ratio. The results obtained showed that the compressive strength for sand both for 7 and 28 days were 19.78N/mm 2 and 30.25N/mm 2 and were higher than that of stonedust ...

1. Replacement of fine aggregate by quarry dust at partial replace results the increase in strength of concrete. 2. The concept of replacement of natural fine aggregate (sand) by quarry dust may help in many ways such as it is helpful to control environment pollution, erosion of river bank might stop and also the waste quarry material can be

a substitute for river sand as fine aggregate for concrete. Experimental results show that the washed sea sand is ideal for concrete and plastering activities. When compared with river sand concrete, 50 and replacement of sea sand with river sand in concrete …

River sand is most commonly used fine aggregate in the production of concrete poses the problem of acute shortage in many areas. Quarry rock dust can be an economic alternative to the river sand. Quarry Rock Dust as substitutes for Natural Sand in concrete.

Fine aggregates consist of natural sand or any crushed stone particles that are ¼" or smaller. This product is often referred to as 1/4'" minus as it refers to the size, or grading, of this particular aggregate. Fine aggregates are available through BoDean Company in ¼" minus, C33, Mark West Quarry Clay and "Quarry Fines".

According to Neville (1972) aggregates used in concrete making are divided into two groups, course and fine and are covered by BS 882 (1954) British Standards. The Fine aggregates include crushed gravel, sand and naturally occurring sand (e.g. river sand). Fine aggregates comprise of particles mainly passing a 5mm test sieve while the

The Seven type of sands considered in this study were indicated as River sand I, River sand II, Stream sand, Aeolian sand, Quarry dust, Dindigul M sand and Karur M sand. Sieve analysis, specific gravity and Fineness Modulus (FM) test was carried out with fine aggregates as per IS 2386 and grading zones are identified using IS 383:2016 and the ...

of gravel and sand that can be readily used in concrete after minimal processing. Natural gravel and sand are usually dug or dredged from a pit, river, lake, or seabed. Crushed stone is produced by crushing quarry rock, boul-ders, cobbles, or large-size gravel. Crushed air-cooled blast-furnace slag is also used as fine or coarse aggregate.
