An Experimental Study on Use of Demolished Concrete Waste, Industrial Ceramic Waste, And Fly Ash as A Partial Replacement of Fresh Concrete

In Many areas of the developing world sources of good quality aggregates are very limited or practically not available and therefore it has become necessary to study alternative materials. The rapid growth in construction and depleting natural resources demands the recycling and reusing technology to be adopted in construction field. In this experimental study the natural coarse aggregate (NCA) is replaced with recycled coarse aggregate (RCA), coarse industrial ceramic waste with fly ash at different percentage and the mechanical strength of concrete is tested. The objective of present study is to determine the sustainability of RCA, coarse industrial ceramic waste as an alternate material to NCA, and to compare the workability, density and compressive strength result using fly ash, For this mix design take water cement ratio 0.5 Cubes are casted by replacing virgin aggregate and cement with 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% RCA, ceramic waste and FA and compressive strength is checked. Results shows that RCA, ceramic waste and FA up to 40% can be used for making concrete.
