As we know that Foam concrete has been successfully used and it has gained popularity due to its lower density than normal concrete. Globally the construction activities are rapid and using huge amount of fine aggregate and cement. Due to continuous usage of large amount of sand and cement we are creating natural imbalance by CONTINUOUS mining of sand, lime etc., from natural resources, which causes many natural hazards and become threat to humans. As a responsible citizen of world everyone think to stop the usage of sand and cement in huge quantity for infrastructural activities. Fly ash is one alternative solution as a partial replacement of sand and cement with Alccofine. In this investigation we are replacing fine aggregate with fly ash and cement with Alccofine by usage of Using additive materials in foam concrete which provides not only workability, strength but also reduce overall cost. As reducing the quantity of sand and cement in foam concrete we conserve Green House effect and also other raw materials used for cement. Foam concrete produced with uniform distribution of air bubbles thoughout the mass of concrete. The density of foam concrete is a function of the volume of foam added to the slurry and the strength decreases as decrease in densities. This experimental investigation was designed for density of 800 kg/m3. This study was compiled in determination of workability, plastic density, water absorption and compressive strength of foam concrete. The test specimens has been casted and tested at the age of 7,14 and 28 days.

Concrete is the most essential construction materials in all over the world. It is necessary to search the cheaply obtainable material as admixture which might be partially replaced cement in the production of concrete. This project is an experimental investigation of the neem leaves ash as partial replacement for cement also fly ash is used for partial replacement of cement. The neem leaves were dried, burnt and heated in the furnace to produce Neem leaves Ash, which was discovered to posses Pozzolanic properties.the ordinary Portland cement was replaced by neem ash by 5%,10%,15%,20% and 25% by weight also flash replaced by 15%,20%,25% and 30% the cubes were crushed to know the comparative strength of the concrete at different curing days. The last result showed that workability and strength properties of the concrete was depended on water cement ratio, total days of curing, the percentage of replacement of Neem leaves ash for OPC . I. This project it was noticed that the result of 5% NLA and 15% fly ash and 10% NLA and 20% of fly ash were gradually increasing the strength at 28 days. Neem leaves play a vital role and behaviour of Neem leaves ash and flash used concrete will be studied

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.
