Abstract |
|
To determine the influence of application Geo Cement and different proportions of Vermiculite as replacement of sand. To produce an acidic resistance concrete with good workability and better strength to withstand harsh environmental conditions. Grades of Concrete tested are M35 & M40. To inquire effectiveness of partial replacement of sand by its weight with 10%, 15%, 20% of vermiculite. Proportions of Vermiculite is maintained constant (10%, 15% & 20%) for both the Grades (M35 & M40) of Concrete. To investigate the compressive force, split tensile strength, water absorption and Acid resistance test with various proportions of vermiculite which holds in the concrete. Comparison of test results obtained with conventional Geo cement concrete. |
