This study focused on the feasibility of utilizing waste rubber tyre as coarse aggregate in concrete as a partial replacement of brick aggregate (BA). Within this context, fresh and hardened properties were investigated on concrete made with three different percentage replacements (0, 10 and 20% by volume) of BA by waste rubber tyre aggregate (WRTA). The WRTA was washed with tap water (H2O) and treated with 20% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) for 2 hours. It was found that the workability and dry density of concrete decrease with an increasing percentage of WRTA. In case of mechanical properties, the compressive strength decreases with the increasing content of both treated and untreated WRTA. The maximum decrease was observed for 20% of both treated and untreated WRTA, which was 41-46% for treated and 47-54% for untreated lower than the reference concrete for all curing ages. It was observed that the concrete made with tyre treated with NaOH provides better strength than untreated tyre aggregate. This behavior could be attributed to the better bonding between cement paste and rubber aggregates as a result of the increased surface roughness by NaOH.

The fresh and hardened properties of concrete with E-waste plastic, that is, high impact polystyrene (HIPS), as a partial replacement for coarse aggregate were analyzed using response surface methodology (RSM). Face-centred central composite response surface design was used in this study. The statistical models were developed between the factors (HIPS and water cement ratio) and their response variables (slump, fresh density, dry density, compressive strength, spilt tensile strength, and flexural strength). The Design-Expert 9.0.3 software package was used to analyze the experimental values. The relationships were established and final mathematical models in terms of coded factors from predicted responses were developed. The effects of factors on properties for all variables were seen visually from the response surface and contour plot. Validation of experiments has shown that the experimental value closely agreed with the predicted value, which validates the calculated response surface models with desirability = 1. The HIPS replacement influenced all the properties of concrete than water cement ratio. Even though all properties show the decline trend, the experimented values and predicted values give a hope that the E-waste plastic (HIPS) can be used as coarse aggregate up to certain percentage of replacement in concrete which successively reduces the hazardous solid waste problem and conserves the natural resources from exhaustion.

Quarry Dust

Large quantity of the quarry dust gets produced annually in the quarries during the extraction of the crushed coarse aggregate. As a result, disposal problems of this material gain significant momentum as these disturb environmental systems also. Now-a-days many of the countries like India is facing problems of ban on the extraction of sand and lacunae in procuring of fine aggregate, which is important constituent of the concrete. To overcome this problem, present study is focused on the suitability to utilize the quarry dust in Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) partially as fine aggregate with the natural fine aggregates. In this work, quarry dust is used as replacement of sand in a different level (0%, 15%, 30%, 45% and 60%) for producing the SCC. Fresh properties such as slump flow and V-funnel time have been measured for all mixes and hardened properties as compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength of the concrete have been checked for all the mixes and it has been found that optimum utilization of quarry dust up to 30% can been done to produce SCC without compromising with its properties.

Recycling of materials has become a major interest for engineers. At present, the amount of slag deposited in storage yard adds up to millions of tons/year leading to the occupation of farm land and serious pollution to the environment, as a result of the rapid growth in the steel industry. Steel slag is made at 1500- 1650°C having a honey comp shape with high porosity. Using steel slag as the natural aggregate with a lower waste material cost can be considered as a good alternative for sustainable constructions. The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of residual mechanical properties of concrete with steel slag as coarse aggregate partial replacement after exposing to high temperatures .This study investigates the behavior of using granulated slag as partial or fully coarse aggregate replacement with different percentages of 0%, 15%, 30%, 50% and 100% in concrete when subjected to elevated temperatures. Six groups of concrete mixes were prepared using various replacement percentages of slag exposed to different temperatures of 400 °C, 600 °C and 800 °C for different durations of 1hr, 1.5hr and 2hr. Evaluation tests were compressive strength, tensile strength, and bond strength. The steel slag concrete mixes showed week workability lower than control mix. A systematic increasing of almost up to 21.7% in compressive strength, and 66.2% in tensile strength with increasing the percentage of steel slag replacement to 50%. And the results showed improvement on concrete residual mechanical properties after subjected to elevated temperatures with the increase of steel slag content. The findings of this study give an overview of the effect of steel slag coarse aggregate replacement on concrete after exposed to high temperatures.

Effective Waste management is the need of the hour in the world. Solid wastes generated by the industries becomes hazardous as days passes by, used tyres are one such waste material that can affect our environment and people. Rubber tyre wastes can be used as partial replacement for the aggregates. In this study, rubber tyre wastes were used as coarse aggregates. And those rubber aggregates are used as partial replacement of coarse aggregates in the cement concrete (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%). The specimens were subjected to different strength tests as per the standards. It is found that the strength of the concrete is greatly reduced as the percentage of replacement of rubber aggregates is increased. Due to their low strength this type concrete cannot be used for load bearing or structural members. However rubberized concrete can be used for non –structural elements and in future a study can be made whether rubber concrete can be used for pavement blocks.

This paper describes the application of lightweight aggregate (LWA) in the creation of fire resistant composite. The effort of the project is the preparation of a light refractory material with good mechanical properties, which would reach technically economical solutions. We initially chose as lightweight aggregate Liaver, which in combination with chamotte aggregate represent the filler of composite. The following observations were focused on partial replacement of binding components with brick dust and its influence on the mechanical properties of the composite. After design process, test composite specimens were produced to determine hardened properties at standard age. On the 28 day were all the mixtures exposed to 105, 600 and 1000 °C. Lastly, the flexural and compressive strength tests were performed on the composite specimens to identify high temperature effect comparing to strength test results obtained from standard laboratory conditions.
