Concrete plays an important role in every construction. This paper is an experimental investigation to study the mechanical properties of the concrete with partial replacement of cement by dolomite powder and fine aggregate by copper slag. So, in this investigation, by usage of Dolomite powder in concrete on one side improves density and other side improves strength and hardness. Copper slag also increases density of concrete and toughness of concrete. The cement content replaced with dolomite and fine aggregate replaced with copper slag from 5% to 25% at regular intervals of 5%. In the designed mix proportion of M30 grade concrete is 1:2.17:2.95. The Superplasticizer Master Rheobuild 920SH of 0.5% dosage used as chemical admixture is added to the concrete to maintain 0.45 the water-cement ratio. The concrete cubes, cylinders were casted. The different mechanical properties like compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength were tested after 3 days, 7 days and 28 days of curing from 5 to 25% at regular intervals of 5% replacement of cement with dolomite powder and 10% to 50% at regular intervals of 10% replacement of fine aggregate with copper slag.

In this article, the effect of replacing cement with silica fume and fine aggregate with copper slag has been investigated. For this research work, concrete of M40 grade is prepared and evaluated for fresh and harden concrete properties such as compressive strength, tensile strength and flexural strength. Further, the cement is replaced with silica fume at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 % and fine aggregate replaced with copper slag at 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 %. Compressive strength, strength and Flexure strength have been tested. It is observed from the results that the use of silica fume and copper slag as partial replacement material improves mechanical properties of the concrete. Concrete with 40 % copper slag and 8 % silica fume shows better performance among all the mixes.

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the properties of concrete in which like cement is partially replacing by used nano silica and is partially replacing by used waste foundry sand. Because now a day the world wide consumption of sand as cement and as fine aggregate in concrete production is very high. Nano silica and waste foundry sand are major by product of casting industry and create land pollution. The cement will be replaced with nano silica and the river sand will be replaced with waste foundry sand (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%). This experimental investigation was done and found out that with the increase in the nano silica and waste foundry sand ratio. Compression test has been done to find out the compressive strength of concrete at the age of 7, 14, 21, and 28. Test result indicates in increasing compressive strength of plain concrete by inclusion of nano silica as a partial replacement of cement and waste foundry sand as a partial replacement of fine aggregate.
