In recent years, sustainability and environmental effect of concrete became the main concern. Substituting cement with the other cementitious material without decreasing mechanical properties of a mixture could save energy, reduce greenhouse effect due to mining, calcination and limestone refining. Therefore, some industrial by-products such as fly ash, silica fume, and Ground Iron Blast Furnace Slag (GIBFS) would be used in this study to substitute cement and aggregate. This substitution would be applied on the porous concrete mixture to minimize the environmental effect. Slag performance will be optimized by trying out variations of fly ash, silica fume, and slag as cement substitution material in mortar mixture. The result is narrowed into two types of substitution. First, reviewed from the fly ash substitution effect on binder material, highest compressive strength 16.2 MPa was obtained from mixture composition 6% fly ash, 3% silica fume and 17% grinding granular blast-furnace slag. Second, reviewed from slag types as cement substitution and silica fume substitution, highest compressive strength 15.2 MPa was obtained from mortar specimens with air-cooled blast furnace slag. It composed with binder material 56% Portland composite cement, 15% fly ash, 3% silica fume and 26% air-cooled blast furnace slag. Considering the cement substitution, the latter mixture was chosen.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

The investigative studies on mechanical performance & behaviour, of Geopolymer Concrete (GPC) before and after the exposure to elevated temperatures (of 200 0 C -1000 0 C with an increment of 100 0 C). Indicate that the GPC Specimens Exhibited better Compressive strength at higher temperatures than that of those made by regular OPC Concrete with M30 Grade. The chronological changes in the geopolymeric structure upon exposure to these temperatures and their reflections on the thermal behaviour have also been explored. The SEM images indicate GPC produced by fly ash , metakaolin and silica fume, under alkaline conditions form Mineral binders that are not only non-flammable and but are also non-combustible resins and binders. Further the Observations drawn disclose that the mass and compressive strength of concrete gets reduced with increase in temperatures.

This paper aimed to investigate the mechanical characteristics of HSC of M60 concrete adding 25% of fly ash to cement and sand and percentage variations of silica fumes 0%,5% and 10% to cement with varying sizes of 10mm,6mm,2mm and powder of granite aggregate with w/c of 0.32. Specimens are tested for compressive strength using 10cm X 10cmX10cm cubes for 7,14,28 days flexural strength was determined by using 10cmX10cmX50cm beam specimens at 28 days and 15cm diameter and 30cm height cylinder specimens at 28 days using super plasticizers of conplast 430 as a water reducing agent. In this paper the experimental set up is made to study the mechanical properties of HSC with and without coarse aggregate with varying sizes as 10mm, 6mm, 2mm and powder. Similarly, the effect of silica fume on HSC by varying its percentages as 0%, 5% and 10% in the mix studied. For all mixes 25% extra fly ash has been added for cement and sand.

Engineered cementitious composites (ECC) are a type of high-performance fiber reinforced cementitious composite. ECC has different applications in the construction field due to its inherent characteristics of high tensile strain. The main concern regarding ECC is its high cost. The content of cement is high contributing to its cost. In this research work, the cement in ECC is replaced with marble dust and its mechanical properties such as compressive strength and flexure strength have been assessed. For this purpose, both cubes and cylinders were tested at different test ages for finding the compressive strength development with time and observe the shape effect of specimens on the compressive strength of ECC mixes. Beam members were tested for finding the flexure strength of ECC mixes. Deflection gauge was also installed at the mid span on the bottom surface of the beams to find the maximum mid span deflection before failure. The compression test results of both cylinders and cubes revealed that using of marble dust has negative effect on the compressive strength of ECC. The flexure strength result showed that marble dust can be used up to some extent replacing cement will increase the flexure strength. The result of mid span deflection suggests that by incorporating marble dust in ECC, its ductility increases.
