An experimental program was undertaken to study the mechanical behaviors of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) tube confined recycled aggregate concrete with sea sand (GRACSS) under the axial compression. Two different parameters were mainly considered: recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) replacement percentage (0, 100%) and type of sand (sea sand, river sand). Typical influences of RCA and sea sand on the strength, the deformation and the load–deformation curve of GRACSS were investigated. The test results showed that the failure pattern of GRACSS was similar to that of GFRP tube confined ordinary concrete (GCOC). The strength of GRACSS decreased with an increasing RCA replacement percentage, while sea sand could reduce the negative effect of RCA. It is also found that the peak deformation of GRACSS increased with the increasing RCA replacement percentage whereas with decreasing sea sand chloride ion (Cl–) content. The stiffness of the specimen was obviously influenced by the concrete type. Research findings indicated that the axial load-deformation curve of GRACSS can be divided into elastic-plastic and hardening stages. An analytical expression was proposed to calculate the load-deformation curve of GRACSS. Finally, the finite element method (FEM) was applied to study the effects of outer tube thickness, concrete strength, RCA replacement percentage and Cl– content in sea sand on the mechanical behaviors (strength and deformation) of GRACSS.

With the city's large-scale construction, there have been a shortage of river sand in some areas. So, abundant, low-cost sea sand gradually being used in construction. However, sea sand can not be directly applied to the production of building materials, such as building mortar. Sea sand must be desalted and admixtures must be added to the sea sand mortar. In this paper, using a variety of sand to make cement mortar, and comparing the performance of them. Studies have shown that, compared with the ordinary mortar, the strength and the durability of the sea sand mortar modified by colloidal crystal have improved significantly.

In the article the possibility of utilization of two waste materials: Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) fraction 0-2 mm and Class C fly ash (from lignite burning power plant) in Controlled Low-Strength Material (CLSM) was presented. The research covered twelve different mixtures. The mixtures differed in cement and fly ash content as well as content of the fine aggregate. As a fine aggregate 0-2 mm fraction of RCA or river sand were used. The results showed that use the fine fraction RCA instead of sand does not cause technological problems and allows, depending on the needs, obtaining the material with different properties and a wide range of applications.

Concrete is a composite building material made from a combination of aggregate and cement. The limitation of concrete material, in this case, is a fine aggregate (river sand). The utilization of sea sand as an alternative to fine aggregate in the manufacture of concrete is     motivated by the availability of sea sand in nature in very large quantities. This study aims to determine the comparison and how much the compressive strength of concrete produced when using sea sand. The test was carried out when the specimens were 7, 14, and 28 days old with the specimens used in this study were concrete cylinders with a diameter of 15 cm and a height of 30 cm. The results showed that the use of sea sand as a substitute for fine aggregate showed an average compressive strength in 7 days of 18.86 MPa, an average compressive strength of 14 days of 25.52 MPa, an average compressive strength of 28 days of 29.00 MPa. Then for the average compressive strength value of the use of river sand in 7 days is 17.17 MPa, the average compressive strength of 14 days is 23.24 MPa, the average compressive strength of 28 days is 26.41 MPa.

The compressive characteristics of the steel-slag concrete were investigated through an experimental test. The term “steel-slag concrete” in this research work was defined as a kind of concrete using steel-slag material as a coarse aggregate replacement. Three types of the steel-slag concretes were examined under compression as follows: XT01, XT02, XT03 with their cement/water ratios of 1.76, 2.00, 2.21, respectively. The coarse aggregate used in producing concrete was steel-slag material, while the fine aggregate was traditional river sand; the ratio of coarse aggregate to fine aggregate was kept constant at a value of 1.98. Firstly, the age-dependent compressive strength of the steel-slag concretes were investigated up to one year; it was clear that the concrete strength increased rapidly in 7 days, then more and more slowly after that. Secondly, the modulus of elasticity and Poisson’s ratio of the steel-slag concretes were explored at the 28-day age. Thirdly, there was an important size and shape effect on the compressive strength of the XT02, and its significance of brittleness in failure was analytically analyzed. Lastly, the effects of water amount added in the XT02 on its compressive strength and slump were evaluated at the 28-day age.


Concrete is an important construction material widely used in the construction industry nowadays. It is blended material consisting of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and water. Generally the use of river sand as fine aggregate in our country is very widespread in industry. This paper mainly focuses on the study of strength properties of concrete in which river sand is replaced with sea sand as fine aggregate. In addition to it, Quarry Dust when added gains strength. Different mix proportions was replaced partially in 5%, 10%, 15% by Sea sand and Quarry dust. The strength of concrete for various mix proportions are carried out and tested for 14, 28, 56 days of curing. From the results obtained, with the replacement of river sand by sea sand along with well graded quarry dust upto to 15% increases the strength of concrete.

Seawater sea sand concrete (SWSSC) is a promising alternative to ordinary concrete in terms of saving valuable natural resources of freshwater and river sand. Basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) rebars can be a good solution to corrosion of steel rebars in SWSSC. This paper presents an experimental study on the bond behavior between SWSSC and BFRP rebars through pullout testing. Concrete mixed with freshwater and river sand was also prepared for comparison with SWSSC. BFRP rebars with two different surface configurations were selected, that is, ribbed surface and sand-coated surface. Fly ash as a replacement of cement was also investigated in terms of its effect on bond behavior. Failure modes, bond-slip relationships, and bond strengths were reported and discussed in terms of the previously mentioned parameters. It was found that ribbed surface of BFRP rebar could achieve better mechanical interlocking with surrounding concrete. SWSSC could have comparative bond strength with BFRP rebar compared with ordinary concrete. However, using fly ash to replace cement is not recommended because it would significantly reduce concrete strength leading to much lower bond at the interface between SWSSC and BFRP rebar.


Concrete is a Composite material which is composed of Cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate binded together with a definite proportion of water. Concrete is widely used in every single construction work around the world. Due to large scale construction activities using conventional coarse aggregate such as granite as a constructional material extreme reduction in the natural stone deposit has been encountered and is affecting the environment, hence causing ecology imbalance. In current situation of construction, price factor and the wide range of extraction and processing of materialsis matter of great concern for the people as well as environment. Therefore, introduction of alternate waste material in place of natural aggregate in concrete production not only protects environment but also make concrete a suitable, economical and environment friendly construction material. Different material like Coconut Shell and Fiber can also be used alternatively. In this project Coconut Shell and fiber are used as partial replacement for coarse aggregate as well as fine aggregate, respectively. To study characteristic properties of concrete 10% and 20% for coarse aggregate and 1%, and 2% for fine aggregate are replaced by its weight with coconut shell and fiber.
