In recent years, it is a fact that the quantity of good quality natural sand goes on draining. In most of the regions, river sands are abused, which results in severe environmental problems, river banks stability and the safety of bridges. The excessive transportation cost is the major impact for the river sands to be more expensive. In the total concrete volume, about 65 to 80% is occupied by the aggregates. These problems can be overcome by using slag instead of sands. Slag is a by-product which is made from metal industries like glass, ash plastics, etc as waste materials. These slags are a fine substitute and coarse aggregate to be cast in the concretes and mortarscompositions. In accordance, for replacing fine aggregate several research works are carried out and that solved by using copper slag. Replacing sand with copper slag of about 40% is proven by most of research as an efficient aggregate. Our research, industrial by-products are applied in order to increase the 40% copper slag. This composition will be a fine aggregate in concrete to 50%, 60%. In another way by using silica fume or marble dust in 10%, 20% and 30% it will be fine aggregate for the concretes

Hybrid Fiber

The conventional concrete is considered to be critical in various constructional applications due to its setbacks such as service load failures, brittle property, low ductility and low tensile capacity. Apart from the natural bridging mechanism (aggregate bridging), an additional bridging mechanism is necessary to overcome the existing setbacks in plain cement concrete. Thus concrete with one or more types of fibers in suitable combinations can augment the mechanical performance of concrete causing a positive synergy effect. Along with the two control mixes with and without copper slag as partial replacement of fine aggregate, two different groups of hybrid combination of fibers such as steel and basalt were cast with 3 different groups of coarse aggregate proportions of sizes 20 mm and 12.5 mm. The hybridization of fibers is assessed in this study under compression, tension, flexure and fracture. Stress-strain data were recorded under compression to validate the strain capacity of the mixtures. The mechanical properties were analyzed for the positive hybrid effect and the influencing factors were copper slag, hybrid fiber combination and coarse aggregate proportions. The optimum volume fraction of fibers and mix proportions were highlighted based on various behaviors of concrete. Steel as macro fibers and basalt as microfibers were examined under microstructural studies (SEM and EDX). The results from the flexural toughness showcased the potential of hybrid fibers with greater energy absorption capacity ensuring the ductile property of the proposed hybrid fiber reinforced concrete.

Rapid Urbanization

Now a days, infrastructure development holds the key for the development of every nation. Concrete is one of the most utilized material by the construction industry which is a homogeneous material prepared of heterogeneous materials like Cement, sand and aggregates. However rapid urbanization has created a huge demand for natural sand hence made it even more expensive. This led the researchers to find other materials which could be used as a replacement of sand whose main chemical composition is Silica (SiO2). After a great extent of research, researchers found that materials like Stone dust, Copper Slag, Coal Fly Ash, Carbonate Sand etc. having silica composition could be used as a replacement of sand. The Present experimental investigation is carried out for M20 grade of concrete mixes with partial replacement of Fine Aggregate (Sand) with Copper Slag. Compressive Strength and Split Tensile Strength at the ages of 7, 28 days for various combinations of Copper Slag and Sand were investigated. Sand was replaced with Copper Slag by 0%,10%, 30%, and 50%.

Effect Of Copper

This paper investigates the fresh and durability properties of the high-performance concrete by replacing cement with 15% Silica fume and simultaneously replacing fine aggregates with 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% copper slag at w/b ratio of 0.23. Five mixes were analysed and compared with the standard concrete mix. Fresh properties show an increase in the slump with the increase in the quantity of copper slag to the mix. Sorptivity, chloride penetration, UPV and carbonation results were very encouraging at 50% copper slag replacement levels. Microstructure analysis of these mixes shows the emergence of C-S-H gel for nearly all mixes indicating densification of the interfacial transition zone of the concrete.
