Abstract

In today's world of urbanization, construction companies play an important role for any country development. Infrastructure is the way to judge the growth and development of any country. Most of developing country is focused on their infrastructure to prove ourselves in the world. Concrete is the main material used in construction mostly. The versatility of concrete has made it an important part of construction. Sand is the major component of concrete. Manufactured Sand (M-Sand) different from natural sea and river dredged sand in its physical and mineralogical properties. These can be both beneficial and detrimental to the fresh and hardened properties of concrete. We test the sand for grade of concrete M-20 on different percentages and take out the compressive strength of concrete after curing the cube of concrete in 7, 14 and 28 days respectively.
