Abstract The carbon dioxide emissions from Portland cement production have increased significantly and Portland cement is the main binder used in self-compacting concrete, so there is an urgent need to find environmental friendly materials as alternative resources. In most developing countries, the availability of huge amounts of agricultural waste has paved the way for studying how these materials can be processed into self-compacting concrete as binder and aggregates compositions. Therefore, this experimental program was carried out to study the properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) made with local metakaolin, coal bottom ash separately and combined. Total 25 mixes were prepared with four mixes as 5,10, 15 and 20% replacement of cement with metakaolin, four mixes as 10, 20, 30 and 40% of coal bottom ash as partial replacement of fine aggregates separately and 16 mixes prepared combined with metakaolin and coal bottom ash. The fresh properties were explored by slump flow, T50 flow, V-funnel, L-box, J-Ring sieve segregation test. Moreover, the hardened properties of concrete were performed for compressive, splitting tensile and flexural strength and permeability of SCC mixtures. Fresh concrete test results show that even if no viscosity modifier is required, satisfactory fresh concrete properties of SCC can be obtained by replacing the fine aggregate with coal bottom ash content. At 15% replacement of cement with local metakaolin is optimum and gave better results as compared to control SCC. At 30% replacement of fine aggregate is optimum and gave better results as compared to control SCC. In the combined mix 10% replacement of cement with metakaolin combined with 30% replacement of fine aggregate with coal bottom ash is optimum and gave better results as compared to control SCC.

Quarry Dust

Large quantity of the quarry dust gets produced annually in the quarries during the extraction of the crushed coarse aggregate. As a result, disposal problems of this material gain significant momentum as these disturb environmental systems also. Now-a-days many of the countries like India is facing problems of ban on the extraction of sand and lacunae in procuring of fine aggregate, which is important constituent of the concrete. To overcome this problem, present study is focused on the suitability to utilize the quarry dust in Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) partially as fine aggregate with the natural fine aggregates. In this work, quarry dust is used as replacement of sand in a different level (0%, 15%, 30%, 45% and 60%) for producing the SCC. Fresh properties such as slump flow and V-funnel time have been measured for all mixes and hardened properties as compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength of the concrete have been checked for all the mixes and it has been found that optimum utilization of quarry dust up to 30% can been done to produce SCC without compromising with its properties.

Rice husk ash (RHA) is a by-product of the rice milling industry. Near about 20 million tonnes of RHA is produced annually which creates environmental pollution. Utilization of RHA as a supplementary cementitious material adds sustainability to concrete by reducing CO2 emission of cement production. But, the percentage of utilization of RHA is very less. This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation to study the effects of partial replacement of fine aggregate with RHA on mechanical properties of conventional and self-compacting concrete (SCC). The fine aggregate is replaced by RHA in conventional concrete (CC) with six different percentage by weight such as 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% having w/c ratio 0.375 with variation of super plasticiser dose, whereas in SCC the replacement of fine aggregate by RHA is 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%. The design mix for CC is targeted for M30 grade concrete. The fresh concrete test of SCC is conducted by using slump flow, T500, J-ring, L-box, U-box and V-funnel to know the filling ability, flow ability and passing ability of SCC. As fresh concrete property concerned, the result indicates that the slump flow value satisfied the EFNARC 2005 guidelines upto 30% replacement of fine aggregate with RHA whereas 40% replacement did not satisfy the guideline. As hardened concrete property concerned, the compressive strength, split-tensile strength and flexural strength of CC and SCC are determined at 7, 28 and 90 days. The test result indicates that upto 30% replacement of fine aggregate with RHA enhances the strength in CC whereas the strength enhancement in SCC upto 20% replacement.

The effect of coal bottom ash (CBA) on the characteristics of asphaltic concrete was investigated with a view to assess its suitability as a partial replacement of fine aggregate. Coal procured from Lafia-Obi coal mines was burnt in a fixed bed combustor until a sand size residual was produced. The properties of the materials used for the study were characterize using standard procedures. The CBA was introduced in the asphalt mix at an increasing rate of 10, 15, 20 and 25% content by weight of the fine aggregate and test samples of asphaltic concrete were prepared. The samples were subjected to Marshall stability test. Results showed that the specific gravity and absorption test for granite dust were 2.45 and 0.25%, respectively, while those of the CBA were 2.86 and 0.58% respectively. The result of stability, flow, bulk density, voids filled in bitumen (VFB), air voids (VA) and voids in mineral aggregate (VMA) of the asphaltic concrete at 0% CBA were 12.02 kN, 3.04 mm, 2.491g/cm3, 66.0%, 4.3%, 12.7% respectively; while the values at 20% CBA content were 16.97 kN, 3.51mm, 2.514g/ cm3 , 71.2%, 3.4%, 11.9% respectively. The result showed that coal bottom ash in asphaltic mix improved its properties.

Abstract. To overcome the shortage of natural resources for the production of concrete, many waste materials are used to replace the raw materials of concrete. In this way, bottom ash is one of the major industrial wastes which shall be used as the replacement of materials in concrete production. It shall be used to replace the materials either up to one-third. This review brings out the evaluation of the industrial waste material which can be repeatedly used as a substitution for concrete as fine aggregate. This paper reviewed the use of industrial waste i.e., bottom ash as fine aggregate in the concrete. The parameters discussed were physical, chemical, fresh, and hardened properties of the concrete with partial replacement of bottom ash. By reviewing some of the research papers, concluded that 10-15% replacement of fine aggregates is acceptable for all the properties of concrete. High utilization of natural sources -gives the pathway to produce more industrial wastes which are responsible for the development of new sustainable development.

In the course of production in the Granite Industry, a lot of quarry dust wastes is generated which is either heaped at sites causing environmental and health hazards or dumped in landfills causing ecological problems. It is imperative to evolve a viable option for disposal so to rid the environment of this menace. This study investigated the use of quarry dust particles (QDP) generated from the granite industry as a cement replacement in self-compacting concrete (SCC). The experimental program was carried out in two phases: the first phase optimized the amount of QDP as replacement of Portland cement (PC) with acceptable flow-ability. The second phase evaluated the fresh and hardened properties of SCC which include tests on slump flow, J-ring and L-box to determine filling, passing abilities of SCC while compression and splitting tensile tests were conducted to determine the compressive and splitting tensile strengths, respectively. Test results show that at 20% replacement of cement with QDP, the SCC-QDP mixes has a slump ranged from 642 to 730 mm compared with 578 mm for SCC mix, a compressive strength of 37 N/mm2 compared with 30 N/mm2 for SCC. This was enhanced by QDP which filled the voids between the coarse grains of cement and water molecules which facilitated the flow ability of the mixes and then at later ages reacted with liberated calcium hydroxide from cement hydration to enhance the strength of the mixes. The results then indicated that QDP can be used to replace PC up to 20% by mass of PC in the production of SCC without adverse effect on both fresh and hardened properties. This results also show that QDP, a suitable material for partial replacement of PC in SCC production, can be used to reduce demand for cement thus reducing carbon dioxide emission and also solve other environmental problems.

The Impact

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) can be achieved by adjusting mix proportions and incorporating adequate admixtures, such as viscosity-modifying (VM) admixtures, with no vibration. Yet, the impact of the mix proportions and the role played by the VM admixtures as opposed to those played by superplasticizer admixtures are not fully understood. There also seems to be no unique means for assessment of such concrete, and the correlation between various tests needs further work. This study aims to achieve a better understanding of the influence of mix proportions on the properties of SCC. Twenty-six mixtures were prepared with various water-to-cementitious material ratios, fine aggregate-to-coarse aggregate ratios, and admixture dosages. Fresh concrete tests, including slump flow, L-box, U-box, and hardened concrete tests, including hardened density, compressive and flexural strength, as well as the rebound hammer tests, were performed. The uniformity of SCC properties among the column specimens was examined. The results revealed that adjustment of the mix proportions has a major impact on the fresh and hardened properties of SCC. The fresh concrete tests were found to correlate well with one another, and the SCC strength was comparable to that of reference concrete made with mechanical vibration. Yet, the components of the SCC examined exhibited a remarkable uniformity of properties. Further work that should involve large specimens in which concrete properties are evaluated in various locations is needed.
