Abstract The study explores the mechanical properties of treated recycled extended polystyrene (TEPS) concrete, treated by two methods, one by heating, and the other by immersed recycled EPS in cement neat. By substituting 0 %, 15 %, 25 %, and 35 % of the coarse aggregate volume with treated recycled EPS, (for both method). Treated recycled TEPS concrete ratios are experimentally prepared, while the cement is substituted thru 10 % silica fume (SF). Tests were carried out, like compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of rupture, and density. The outcomes display the decreasing of the compressive strength, tensile strength and modulus of rupture of TEPS concretes with rise TEPS percentage around 26 %, 17 % and 32 %, respectively (35% TEPS) related to standard concrete. They also show that TEPS concrete density decrease about 30 % of normal concrete. The TEPS is suitable in concrete and meets provisions.

The rapid growth of the population leads to a requirement of infrastructure this leads to scarcity of raw material for construction such as cement and sand. The other hand pollution growing due to thermal power plants, granite polishing unit and plastic waste this need to be removed. This gives an idea of using this compound as a raw material in concrete making. This concept found to effective minimizes disposal of fly, granite power and plastic wastes, and leads towards Green Building Concepts. In this investigation of M25 grade normal concrete is made by cement, sand, and aggregate which is tested and compared by special concrete. The concrete mix is prepared as per 10262 -2019 by adding replacing small amount of Fly ash in place of cement OPC 53 grade, and fine aggregate is prepared by partial replacing with granite powder (0%,10%,20%,30%)and another mix is prepared by adding 0.5 nylon fiber, partial replacement of fine aggregate with granite powder (0%,10%,20%,30%)specimens are casted . The casted specimens are tested for split tensile strength and compressive strength 7, 14 and 28 day’s respectively and these results also compared with each other. I t is observed that compressive strength and split tensile of concrete at 28days of curing show max value when compared with normal concrete. When the percentage of granite powder increases to 30% it shows that a decrease in both split tensile strength of concrete and compressive strength. When we added fiber to the concrete there is an increase in compressive strength and split tensile strength but there is a not much increase in compressive strength but increase in split tensile strength

According to the Badan Pusat Statistik data in 2018, the total area of oil palm plantations in Indonesia currently reaches around 12.3 million hectares. Solid waste is the most waste, which is around 35-40% of the total Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) which is processed in the form of empty fruit bunches, fiber, fruit shells, and burnt ash. PT. Hasnur Citra Terpadu in Rantau, Tapin Regency, South Kalimantan is one of the Palm Oil Mill which in the combustion process of a boiler engine using oil palm shells and fibers is burned simultaneously. The result of the combustion process produces waste in the form of boiler crust ash which is fine textured (fly ash) and coarse textured (bottom ash). This study uses fly ash as a cement substitution for concrete mixtures. The making of mortar specimens was varied with fly ash with a percentage of 0%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% which will be tested for compressive strength at the age of 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days. Then the making of concrete specimens is planned with a quality of 25 MPa and the concrete compressive strength is tested at the age of 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 28 days and 56 days and the split tensile strength test of the concrete at 28 days. Based on the results of the mortar compressive strength analysis, the optimum mixture of fly ash is 10% which is used for making concrete. The average compressive strength of normal concrete at 28 days is 26.33 MPa and the compressive strength of concrete with 10% fly ash (optimum concrete) is 26.14 MPa exceeding the design compressive strength of 25 MPa. Based on the results of the split tensile strength test of concrete at the age of 28 days, it was obtained 3,914 MPa for normal concrete and 3,466 MPa for optimum concrete.

Concrete is the most widely used composite construction material. Fine aggregate plays a very important role for imparting better properties to concrete in its fresh and hardened state. Generally, river sand was used as fine aggregate for construction. Due to the continuous mining of sand from riverbed led to the depletion of river sand and it became a scarce material. Also, sand mining from river bed caused a lot of environmental issues. As a substitute to river sand, Robo sand has been used. In this present experimental study a comparative study has been carried out to check the usability of Robo sand in place of natural sand. This study involves determination of some major properties of concrete like compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural tensile strength and durability in acidic medium made of both the sands. Based on proposed studies, quality of Robo sand is equivalent to natural sand in many respects, such as cleanliness, grading, strength, angularity, specific gravity. Conclusion have been arrived that Robo sand produced from VSI (vertical shaft impact or) is a suitable and viable substitute to river sand and could be effectively used in making concrete which provides adequate strength and durability for the concrete. In the design of concrete structures, concrete is taken into account by taking its compressive strength value. The compressive strength of the concrete made of Robo sand is observed to be very nearer to the strength of the concrete made of natural sand in the present investigation, there by 100% replacement is reasonable.

Average Compressive Strength

Concrete is a material with the ability to withstand a fairly high pressure, yet it has a low ability to withstand tension. To be utilized as a structure material, improvements need to be made to increase its tensile strength. Addition of fiber in the concrete mixture is recognized to be one among the existing methods to increase the tensile strength. Considering its high tensile strength, This study aimed to examine the compressive strength, the split tensile strength, the flexural and elastic modulus of the normal concrete with Menjalin fibers. The examination was conducted using a cylinder with the diameter of 15 cm and the height of 30 cm and a beam with the size of 15x15x60 cm. Fiber addition was 0.65% of the total concrete materials with various fiber lengths ranging from 2.5 cm, 5 cm, 7.5 cm to 10 cm. The experiment was made by the means of a concrete cylinder compressive test and a flexural test of unreinforced concrete blocks. Results of the study showed, at the age of 21 days, the highest average compressive strength value of 194.37 kg/cm2 and the split tensile strength of 30.43 kg/cm2 in the concrete with fiber of 5 cm long were obtained. The highest flexural modulus value of concrete occurred in the specimen with the fiber length of 7.5 cm (55.7 kg/cm2), while the highest elasticity of concrete occurred in the specimen with the fiber length of 5 cm (2.45x105 kg/cm2).

Pozzolanic Properties

Most commonly used composite building material in construction industry is Concrete due to ease of construction and its properties like compressive strength and durability. The basic ingredient of Concrete having adhesive nature is Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC). OPC is being replaced with Fly Ash and Metakaolin as these mineral admixtures possess pozzolanic properties which credit for strength gain and cost reduction in concreting. In this investigation, OPC is replaced up to 40% with Fly Ash and Metakaolin for M35 grade of Fibre Reinforced Concrete(FRC). Natural sand is replaced completely with Manufactured sand (M-sand). Steel fibres @ 1% of binder are used. Mechanical properties like compressive strength and split tensile strength at 7 days and 28 days age are tested. Additionally durability tests like water absorption and sorptivity after 28days curing are conducted. The test results indicated that 30% replacement of OPC was optimum for strength criteria, workability of Concrete was decreased with increase in replacement of OPC with Fly Ash and Metakaolin together.
