Now, the resource of high quality natural sand is lacking. Manufactured sand is broken by rocks or tailings, which could be used in the mixture of cement concrete as fine aggregate instead of natural sand. The use of manufactured sand in concrete structure has become more and more important. It can make construction industry develop with environmentally friendliness and sustainability. In this paper, the elastic modulus strength was compared between manufactured sand concrete and ordinary concrete by testing on concrete specimens using the manufactured sand, the replacement ratios of manufactured sand by mass to the natural sand are 0, 0.30, 0.5, 0.70 and 1.0 respectively. The experimental research showed that the elastic modulus strength of manufactured sand concrete was stronger than that of natural sand and it had an increasing trend with the increasing of replacement rate and age but the elastic modulus of replacement rate of 50% was largest. This showed that the optimum replacement ratio was 50%.The fitting relations between elastic modulus and compressive strength was different with that of ordinary concrete. The relationship equation between elastic modulus strength and compressive strength of manufactured sand concrete was recommended in this paper. This could be used as a reference for the applications of the concrete using the manufactured sand as a fine aggregate in engineering.

ABSTRAKSalah satu limbah yang dapat digunakan sebagai pengganti bahan pembuat beton adalah abu batu. Abu batu merupakan limbah dari proses pemecahan bongkahan batu. Ditinjau dari ukuran butirannya maka abu batu merupakan agregat halus. Abu batu memiliki penyerapan air yang lebih tinggi daripada pasir alami, maka dari itu untuk mendapatkan kelecakan campuran beton yang sama dengan kelecakan campuran beton menggunakan pasir alami, penggunaan abu batu sebagai agregat halus dalam campuran beton perlu tambahan air. Namun hal ini akan menyebabkan faktor air-semen bertambah. Sehingga hasil kuat tekan akan menurun. Hal ini sesuai dengan hubungan antara kuat tekan beton dengan faktor air-semen. Perekayasaan yang dilakukan adalah dengan menaikkan faktor granular (G) dan menaikkan kuat tekan rencana berdasarlan teori Dreux. Abu batu pada penelitian ini digunakan sebagai substitusi pasir alami dengan proporsi 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, dan 100%. Hasil penelititan ini memperlihatkan penggunaan abu batu sebagai agregat halus lebih dari 40% akan sangat drastis menurunkan kuat tekan beton.Kata kunci: perekayasaan, substitusi, campuran beton, abu batu, agregat halus ABSTRACTOne of the wastes that can be used as a substitute for concrete materials is stone ash. Stone ash is a waste from the process of stone crusher. Consider from the size of the grain, stone ash as fine aggregate. Stone ash has a higher water absorption than natural sand, therefore to get the concrete workability that is the same as the concrete workability using natural sand, the use of stone ash as fine aggregate in the concrete mixture needs additional water. But this will cause the cement-water ratio to increase. So that the compressive strength will decrease. This is following the relationship between the compressive strength of concrete and the cement-water ratio. Engineering is done by increasing the granular factor (G) and increasing the compressive strength of the plan based on Dreux theory. Stone ash in this study was used as a substitute for natural sand with a proportion of 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. The results of this research show that the use of stone ash as fine aggregate of more than 40% will greatly reduce the compressive strength of the concrete.Keywords: engineering, substitute, concrete mixture, stone ash, fine aggregate

In recent years, with the rapid development of the construction industry, the demand for natural river sand has become increasingly prominent. Development of alternatives to river sand has become an interesting direction for concrete research. In this paper, coal gangue was proposed to replace part of the river sand to produce coal gangue fine aggregate concrete, while waste polyethene terephthalate (PET) bottles were used as raw materials to make PET fibers to improve the mechanical properties of coal gangue fine aggregate concrete. There were two parts of the test conducted. In the first part, the compressive strength of the gangue fine aggregate concrete cube, splitting tensile strength, axial compressive strength, and static elastic modulus were studied when the substitution rate of coal gangue increased from 0% to 50%. Referring to the equation of the full stress-strain curve of plain concrete, the stress-strain constitutive equation of coal gangue fine aggregate concrete was analyzed and studied. By comparing with plain concrete, it was found that the coal gangue concrete with a replacement rate of 50% had higher compressive strength and tensile strength, but its brittleness was significantly greater than that of plain concrete in the later stage. In the second part, by studying the effect of different PET fiber content on the mechanical properties of coal gangue fine aggregate concrete with a replacement rate of 50%, it was found that when the addition of PET fiber was 0.1% and 0.3%, not only were compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, static elastic modulus, and flexural strength of the gangue fine aggregate concrete effectively improved but also the brittleness of concrete can be significantly reduced. The study found that after adding 0.3% PET fiber, the coal gangue fine aggregate concrete with a replacement rate of 50% has better mechanical properties and less brittleness.

To replace bottom ash for natural sand completely, the mix proportions of bottom ash in concrete was adjusted according to tab density and replacement ratio of Metakaolin/Cement were established. And then testing for slump, setting time, and compressive strength was conducted. According to test results, the compressive strength of concrete using the bottom ash was lower than that of concrete using natural sand (BAO concrete). But by adjusting the amount of bottom ash in concrete according tab density so that the fine aggregate proportions change 44% to 38%, the compressive strength of concrete using the bottom ash could even be higher than BAO concrete. And the chloric content of concrete using the bottom ash increased as the replacement ratio of bottom ash increased, but it is satisfied with the chloric content of fresh concrete 0.30 kg/m2 below (concrete standard specification regulation value).

With the methods of studying conventional concrete mechanical performance, the influence of concrete performance on the rubber powder replacement rate is investigated. Based on the test data, the relationship of between the elastic modulus and the rubber powder replacement rate is fitted. The results show that the concrete slump decreases with the rubber substitution rate increasing. The compressive strength of the cube of the concrete, the axial compressive strength and the elastic modulus go down in different degree with the increment of the rubber substitution rate.

This paper presents the results of elevated temperatures on the compressive of high fly ash content concrete (HFCC). The specimens were prepared with three different replacements of cement by fly ash 30%, 40% and 50% by mass and the residual compressive strength was tested after exposure to elevated temperature 250, 450, 550 and 650°C and room temperature respectively. The results showed that the compressive strength apparently decreased with the elevated temperature increased. The presence of fly ash was effective for improvement of the relative strength, which was the ratio of residual compressive strength after exposure to elevated temperature and ordinary concrete. The relative compressive strength of fly ash concrete was higher than those of ordinary concrete. Based on the experiments results, the alternating simulation formula to determine the relationship among relative strength, elevated temperature and fly ash replacement is developed by using regression of results, which provides the theoretical basis for the evaluation and repair of HFCC after elevated temperature.

The validity of the wet-sieving concrete technique for building the reinforced composite concrete wall are demonstrated in the paper. The fine aggregate concrete made by ordinary concrete passing the sieve with square mash of 15 mm was cast for the surface layer, the recomposed concrete mixed by the residual concrete stayed on the sieve with the ordinary concrete was cast for the reinforced concrete structural wall. The mechanical properties such as the cubic and compressive strengths, the elastic modulus and the splitting and flexural tensile strengths of the fine aggregate concrete, the recomposed concrete and the ordinary concrete were tested and analyzed. The results show that the elastic modulus and splitting tensile strength of fine aggregate concrete reduce in some extent compared with that of ordinary concrete, the mechanical properties of recomposed concrete are almost the same as that of ordinary concrete.

The concept of replacement of natural fine aggregate by quarry dust which is highlighted in the study could boost the consumption of quarry dust generated from quarries. By replacement of quarry dust, the requirement of land fill area can be reduced and can also solve the problem of natural sand scarcity. The availability of sand at low cost as a fine aggregate in concrete is not suitable and that is the reason to search for an alternative material. Quarry dust satisfies the reason behind the alternative material as a substitute for sand at very low cost. It even causes burden to dump the crusher dust at one place which causes environmental pollution. From the results of experimental investigations conducted, it is concluded that the quarry dust can be used as a replacement for fine aggregate. It is found that 40% replacement of fine aggregate by quarry dust gives maximum result in strength than normal concrete and then decreases from 50%. The compressive strength is quantified for varying percentage and grades of concrete by replacement of sand with quarry dust.

The shortage of natural aggregates has recently emerged as a serious problem owing to the tremendous growth of the concrete industry. Consequently, the social interest in identifying aggregate materials as alternatives to natural aggregates has increased. In South Korea’s growing steel industry, a large amount of steel slag is generated and discarded every year, thereby causing environmental pollution. In previous studies, steel slag, such as blast furnace slag (BFS), has been used as substitutes for concrete aggregates; however, few studies have been conducted on concrete containing both BFS and Ferronickel slag (FNS) as the fine aggregate. In this study, the compressive strength, chloride ion penetrability, and carbonation characteristic of concrete with both FNS and BFS were investigated. The mixed slag fine aggregate (MSFA) was used to replace 0, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of the natural fine aggregate volume. From the test results, the highest compressive strength after 56 days was observed for the B/F100 sample. The 56 days chloride ion penetrability of the B/F75, and B/F100 samples with the MSFA contents of 75% and 100% were low level, approximately 34%, and 54% lower than that of the plain sample, respectively. In addition, the carbonation depth of the samples decreased with the increase in replacement ratio of MSFA.

Use of manufactured sand to replace natural sand is increasing in the last several decades. This study is devoted to the assessment of using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) together with Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO) for enhancing the prediction accuracy of individual Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) in predicting the compressive strength of manufactured sand concrete (MSC). The PCA technique was applied for reducing the noise in the input space, whereas, TLBO was employed to increase the prediction performance of single ANFIS model in searching the optimal weights of input parameters. A number of 289 configurations of MSC were used for the simulation, especially including the sand characteristics and the MSC long-term compressive strength. Using various validation criteria such as Correlation Coefficient (R), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Error (MAE), the proposed method was validated and compared with several models, including individual ANFIS, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and existing empirical equations. The results showed that the proposed model exhibited great prediction capability compared with other models. Thus, it appeared as a robust alternative computing tool or an efficient soft computing technique for quick and accurate prediction of the MSC compressive strength.

Due to many different characteristics such as irregular polygon particle with pointed edges, rough surface and larger content of stone powder, machine-made sand has ignorable effects on the properties of concrete. As the basis for the design of concrete structures, the relations among the basic mechanical properties of concrete such as compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength and elastic modulus should be clearly understood. This paper summarizes the test data from the published references, and discusses the relations among these properties by statistical analyses compared with those of ordinary concrete. The results show that the axial compressive strength and the tensile strength can be prospected by the same formulas of ordinary concrete specified in current Chinese design code, but the prospected tensile strength should multiply a reducing coefficient when the strength grade of concrete is lower than C30. The elastic modulus of concrete with machine-made sand is larger than that of ordinary concrete, which should be prospect by the formula in this paper. Meanwhile, the formula of flexural strength is suggested.
