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.
