Abstract

In the present study by-product of stone crushed, stone dust is replaced as a fine aggregate in the concrete by some proportion and compressive strength is determined for concrete by testing the sample cube. The properties such as the specific gravity, moisture content, fineness modulus etc. are determined for the sample. Stone dust is best alternative for the natural sand because natural sand and stone dust has similar physical and mechanical properties. This paper shows some relevant studies regarding the effect of stone dust on mechanical property like compressive strength. Hence in this paper strength and properties of conventional concrete and stone dust concrete are compared so that it will be helpful to other researchers.
