Abstract

There is a great demand of both coarse & fine aggregates for the construction of concrete structures day by day. But Availability of natural sand is limited due to limited resources. The Government contemplating ban on dredging of River beds to quarry river sand, as part of the growing concern for environment protection. For Infrastructure development of country construction work could not be stopped. So an alternate of natural sand is necessarily required in concrete constructions. Artificial sand or manufactured sand has found excellent substitute of natural sand. Manufactured sand shows greater durability, high strength, greater workability, economic and Eco friendly. In this paper review has been done on “Effect on compressive strength with replacement of manufactured sand with natural sand in concrete”.
