The purpose in this study was to know the characteristic properties of fine aggregate materials and rough aggregates derived from Badene Village batauga sub-district as well as to know the strong press produced by concrete against seawater mixture with variations of cement water factor. In this study the material was mixed using laur water and fresh water with variations in cement water factor which is 0.45, 0.50, and 0.55. Testing is carried out at the age of concrete 3 days, 7 days and 28 days, using the dimensions of the slinder test object 15 cm x 30 cm. The total number of test objects is 54 pieces. The stronger the concrete press by using seawater as a concrete mixture can increase the strong press of concrete when compared to fresh water, as well as the smaller the value of the cement water factor used then the greater the strong value of the press. Strong press concrete with seawater mixture using cement water factor 0.55, 0.50, and 0.45 at age 28 days produce strong concrete presses respectively 15.82 MPa, 18.65 MPa, and 20.85 MPa, while strong concrete press with freshwater mixture using cement water factor 0.55, 0.50, and 0.45 at 28 days old produce strong concrete press 15.70 MPa respectively 18.40 MPa and 20.00 MPa. The results showed the influence of seawater use on concrete mixtures can increase the strength of the press compared to the use of concrete mixtures using fresh water.

This paper presents the results of the experimental works to investigate the use of waste limestone from water treatment industry as fine aggregate in green concrete. Two concrete mixtures with a constant water-to-binder ratio of 0.3 were prepared for this investigation, in which, the normal concrete mixture was designed following the guidelines of ACI 211 standard, while the green concrete mixture was designed using densified mixture design algorithm (DMDA) technology. For comparison, both types of concrete samples were subjected to the same test program, including fresh properties, compressive strength, strength efficiency of cement, drying shrinkage, electrical surface resistivity, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and thermal conductivity. Test results indicate that both concrete mixtures showed the excellent workability due to the round-shape of waste limestone aggregate and the use of superplasticizer. In addition, the green concrete mixture exhibited a better performance in terms of engineering properties and durability in comparison with the normal concrete mixture. The results of the present study further support the recycling and reuse of waste limestone as fine aggregate in the production of green concrete.

This paper investigates the effect of using wastes sawdust as a replacement of fine aggregate (sand) on mechanical properties naming compressive, tensile and flexural strengths of ordinary Portland concrete. The wastes sawdust was treated before incorporating it in concrete mixtures. Three different methods were used to pre-treat the sawdust including a) soaking the sawdust in distilled water at 50 oC, b) soaking the sawdust in Ca (OH)2 solution, and c) soaking the sawdust in Ca (OH)2 solution and using a set accelerator in the concrete mixture. In addition to the control mixture (having no sawdust), three more concrete mixtures were prepared to explore the effect of the three different methods of pre-treatment on the mechanical properties of concrete. Results showed that the compressive strength of the concrete incorporating wastes sawdust pre-treated with the calcium hydroxide solution (slaked lime) and having the accelerator was higher than that of the control mixture. The tensile and flexural strengths of the concrete mixture having waste sawdust pre-treated by Ca (OH)2 solution and having the accelerator were found to be very comparable to those of the control mixture. On the other hand, the compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths of the concrete mixture with sawdust pre-treated by Ca (OH)2 solution only were somehow comparable to those of concrete mixture having sawdust pre-treated by distilled water. While the compressive strength of the concrete mixtures incorporating sawdust pre-treated with either Ca (OH)2 solution or distilled water was less than that of the control mixture, both tensile and flexural strengths of the two treated concrete mixtures were approximately comparable to those of the control mixture.

This paper presents the behavior of concrete properties by replacing the conventional coarse aggregate used in the concrete mixture by two types of lightweight aggregate; Expanded Perlite Aggregate (EPA) and Volcanic Pumice (VP). To fulfill this aim; three laboratory tests were applied; density, compressive strength, and abrasion resistance, that conducted to extrapolate the range of the changes in the properties of concrete with existence those types of aggregate in the mixture. Also, the volumetric proportion adopted as a strategy for replacing the coarse aggregate by EPA or VP in the concrete mixture. Then, the volumetric proportion ranged from 10% to 50% with the variation step was 10%. Therefore, ten concrete mixtures are prepared and divided into two groups; each group contains five concrete mixes to represent the volumetric replacement (10-50)% of conventional coarse aggregate by EPA or VP. On the other hand, one extra mixture designed by using conventional aggregate (coarse and fine aggregate) without any inclusion of EPA or VP to be considered as a reference mixture. The obtained laboratory results of this study proved that the density, compressive strength, and abrasion resistance readings of concrete decreased at any volumetric proportion replacement of coarse aggregate by EPA or VP. The decrease in density and compressive strength of concrete readings amounted the peak level at 50% replacing of coarse aggregate by EPA, which were 38.19% and 77.37%, respectively than the reference mixture. Additionally, the compressive strength is an important factor affecting the abrasion resistance of concrete mixture, and loss of abrasion decreased as compressive strength increased.

The research deals with the granite screenings as fine aggregate influence on the technological properties of concrete mixtures and on the physical and mechanical properties and durability of concrete paving. The following several compositions of concrete mixture for the production of environment arrangements are researched: fine aggregate using only 0/2 fraction sand (B1), 10% of 0/2 fraction sand replacing with 0/2 fraction granite screenings (B2) and using only granite screenings (B3). Concrete mixtures were prepared in the laboratory, and concrete paving blocks – in the factory. The technological properties of concrete mixtures and physical and mechanical properties of concrete paving blocks (made from the mentioned concrete mixtures) were determined; the durability of the products in the cycles of frost resistance was forecasted. The research results reveal that due to the properly selected ratio between sand and granite screenings in the fine aggregate, the characteristics of concrete paving blocks are better than using only sand as fine aggregate.
