A Review Paper on Effect of Replacement of Cement by Dolomite Powder

There are many pressing challenges facing the world of today and tomorrow which can be directly influenced by those who work in the built environment. Based on the global mega trends such as climate change, urbanization, ageing population and digitalization, the future societal demands of the construction sector and the role of concrete has to play to meet these. Concrete is infinitely versatile in mix and form; can be used compositely to enhance its properties. It is a composite material composed of fine and coarse aggregate bonded together with cement that hardens over time.in which cement is one the most important ingredient. But during the manufacturing process of cement, the cement industries are the major producers of greenhouse gases, it emits large amount of carbon dioxide into the environment and also increase the cost of construction, which is a major concern. Hence, it is important to find out some alternative of cement. Partial replacement of material can help in reducing price and the environment. In this research, one of the mineral reach material Dolomite is used as a partial replacement of cement. This paper examines fresh and mechanical property of concretes made with dolomite powder as cement replacement in different amounts.
