High standing estimation of building materials utilized for development is a component of incredible concern. Coconut shell as a completely substitution in the place of coarse aggregate may totally effective for designers in construction industry. The coconut shell concrete is a light weight solid which may decrease the self-heap of a structure. The under taken project depends on inspecting attributes of coconut shell concrete when contrasted with conventional concrete. Coconut shells going from 10mm strainer and held on 6.3mm were considered to utilize for this study. For the current study M100 grade concrete is used to cast the specimens. The principle properties considered testing on coconut shell concrete and conventional concrete is compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength. Examples were taken by supplanting coarse aggregate with coconut shells completely and cement is supplanted by silica fume with various extents of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% for compressive strength test and tests were done at 3, 7, 28, 56 and 90 days of curing, it is observed that the ideal compressive strength outcomes were obtained at 10% of silica fume. The flexural strength and  split tensile strength of the specimens are calculated with replacement of cement by silica fume with  different extents of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%, tests were done at 3, 7 and 28 days of curing. The optimum replacement percentage of cement by silica fume is 10% for compressive strength, split tensile and flexural strength. The primary principle is to lessen the utilization of natural aggregate by supplanting them with coconut shells and to decrease the density of concrete which makes concrete for simple dealing.

The properties of concrete containing coarse recycled aggregates were investigated. Laboratory trials were conducted to investigate the possibility of using recycled aggregates from the demolition wastes available locally as the replacement of natural coarse aggregates in concrete. A series of tests were carried out to determine the density, compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity of concrete with and without recycled aggregates. The water cement ratio was kept constant for all the mixes. The coarse aggregate in concrete was replaced with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% recycled coarse aggregates. The test results indicated that the replacement of natural coarse aggregates by recycled aggregates up to 40% had little effect on the compressive strength, but higher levels of replacement reduced the compressive strength. A replacement level of 100% causes a reduction of 28% in compressive strength, 36% in split tensile strength and 50% in flexural strength. For strength characteristics, the results showed a gradual decrease in compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity as the percentage of recycled aggregate used in the specimens increased. 100% replacement of natural coarse aggregate by recycled aggregate resulted in 43% savings in the cost of coarse aggregates and 9% savings in the cost of concrete.

Concrete made from ordinary Portland cement is one of the most widely used construction materials due to its excellent compressive strength. However, concrete lacks ductility resulting in low tensile strength and flexural strength, and poor resistance to crack formation. Studies have demonstrated that the addition of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheet can effectively enhance the compressive and flexural properties of ordinary Portland cement paste, confirming GO nanosheet as an excellent candidate for using as nano-reinforcement in cement-based composites. To date, the majority of studies have focused on cement pastes and mortars. Only limited investigations into concretes incorporating GO nanosheets have been reported. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the slump and physical properties of concrete reinforced with GO nanosheets at additions from 0.00% to 0.08% by weight of cement and a water–cement ratio of 0.5. The study demonstrates that the addition of GO nanosheets improves the compressive strength, flexural strength, and split tensile strength of concrete, whereas the slump of concrete decreases with increasing GO nanosheet content. The results also demonstrate that 0.03% by weight of cement is the optimum value of GO nanosheet dosage for improving the split tensile strength of concrete.

In this paper, concrete mixes utilizing two sizes of natural aggregate and two sources of lightweight and recycled aggregates were used to investigate the effect of aggregate type and specimen size and shape on the compressive strength of concrete. In addition, samples from ready-mix concrete producers with different strengths were evaluated using standard size cylinders and cubes. Results were obtained on the 7th, 28th, and 90th day. In addition, flexural strength, split tension, and modulus of elasticity were evaluated on the 28th and 90th day. Statistical analyses were conducted to examine the significance of the difference between the compressive strength values for each two mixes using tests of hypotheses. Moreover, other mechanical properties as a function of compressive strength were discussed and compared to those predicated by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) specifications. Results indicate specimen shape has a noticeable effect on the compressive strength as the Cylinder/Cube ratio on the 90th day was ranging between 0.781 and 0.929. The concrete compressive strength and modulus of elasticity were significantly affected by the aggregate type. The flexural strength and split tensile strength were less affected by the aggregate type, which was also confirmed by the values predicted with the ACI equations.

Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a specially developed concrete for concreting under extreme condition of inaccessibility from heights. It is capable to flow under influence of its own weight. It could be used when encountered with dense reinforcement and complex structural design. Problem of segregation as well as bleeding is eliminated and vibration is not required for compaction. As concrete is strong in compression and weak in tension. Hence to make it strong in tension, discontinuous Anti-Crack high dispersion glass fibers are added. SCC mix prepared with addition of discontinuous glass fibers is called as Glass Fiber reinforced Self Compacting Concrete (GFRSCC). In this paper an experimental study has been carried out to check the effect of Anti-Crack high dispersion glass fibers on the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength of SCC. The result show that, as compared to the Normal SCC, the compressive strength of GFRSCC increases by 2.80% and 12.42%, the split tensile strength of GFRSCC increases by 4.47% and 25.12% and the flexural strength of SCC increases by 6.57% and 14.34% when the Cem-FIL Anti-Crack HD glass fibers were added as 0.25% and 0.50% respectively by the weight of total cementitious material contents. The addition of 0.25% Cem-FIL Anti-Crack HD glass fibers to SCC has not much affect on the workability of Normal SCC. Whereas, addition of 0.50% Cem-FIL Anti-Crack HD glass fibers reduces the workability of SCC.

The lightweight aggregate is an aggregate that weighs less than the usual rock aggregate and the quarry dust is a rock particle used in the concrete for the experimentation. The significant intention of the proposed technique is to frame a mathematical modeling with the aid of the optimization techniques. The mathematical modeling is done by minimizing the cost and time consumed in the case of extension of the real time experiment. The proposed mathematical modeling is utilized to predict four output parameters such as compressive strength (Mpa), split tensile strength (Mpa), flexural strength (Mpa), and deflection (in mm). Here, the modeling is carried out with three different optimization techniques like genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), and ant colony optimization (ACO) with 80% of data from experiment utilized for the training and the remaining 20% for the validation. Finally, while testing, the error value is minimized and the performance obtained in the ACO for the parameters such as compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength, and deflection is 91%, 98%, 87%, and 94% of predicted values, respectively, in the mathematical modeling.

RESUMO: Avaliou-se a substituição da brita basáltica existente no concreto por material alternativo em abundância no município de Santarém-PA: a laterita. Foi avaliado o desempenho do concreto incorporado com agregado laterítico in natura em substituição parcial ao agregado graúdo de brita basáltica nos teores de 20% e 50%. Realizou-se a caracterização dos agregados graúdo e miúdo. De acordo com o método da ABCP, determinou-se o traço de referência em massa 1:1,71:3,03:0,53; confeccionou-se corpos-de-prova cilíndricos 10x20 cm utilizando 3 traços diferentes, de modo a substituir a brita basáltica pelo agregado laterítico, em 20% e 50%. Para cada traço foram quantificados a sua consistência, por meio do ensaio de abatimento do tronco de cone, resistência à compressão axial, resistência à tração por compressão diametral e módulo de elasticidade aos 28 dias. A substituição do agregado convencional de brita basáltica por agregado laterítico em seu estado natural promoveu diminuição da resistência a compressão simples, da resistência à tração por compressão diametral e do módulo de elasticidade com a inclusão do agregado laterítico na mistura. Destaca-se que acima de determinado teor de substituição o concreto torna-se inviável devido a necessidade de adicionar aditivo plastificante para manter a consistência desejada e que as duas misturas incorporadas com agregado laterítico se mostraram muito semelhantes após os 28 dias, no que tange a ganhos de resistência a compressão. ABSTRACT: This study is about the replacement of basaltic origin crushed stone by alternative material present in the municipality of Santarém, Pará State: the laterite. The aim were to evaluate the performance of concrete incorporated with natural lateritic aggregate, replacing the of crushed stone in 20% and 50%. The first stage was characterizing the coarse and fine aggregates that made up the studied concrete. According to ABCP dosing method it was determined the mass reference trait 1: 1.71: 3.03: 0.53; bodies of 10x20 cm were made for cylindrical test, using three different strokes so that the basaltic crushed stone gradually replaced by the lateritic aggregate in proportions of 20% and 50%. For each trait its consistency was quantified by means of the tapering test, axial compression strength, diametric compression tensile strength and the modulus of elasticity at 28 days. Was observed that the replacement of the conventional aggregate basalt crushed stone for aggregate of laterite in natural state promoted a decrease in the value of simple compressive strength, diametric tensile strength and modulus of elasticity with inclusion of a larger amount of lateritic aggregate in the mixture. It is noteworthy that above a certain substitution content, the concrete becomes not feasible due to the need for a large increase in the amount of plasticizer additive to the desired consistency is maintained and the two blends incorporated with lateritic showed very similar after 28 days in terms of gains in compressive strength.


In this paper various mix proportions of Reactive Powder Concretes were formulated using ordinary Portland cement, Fly ash, Micro silica, Silica Fume, Quartz powder etc and these concretes were subjected to strength test. The best mix was selected for further in depth study with fibers like Sisal fiber, Coir fiber, Hair fiber and Polypropylene fiber mixed Reactive Powder Concrete and the various tests have been performed Cube Compressive strength, Cylinder Compressive strength, Flexural strength, Split Tensile strength, Shear test, Water absorption, Sorptivity and Chloride diffusion etc. As a result, fiber incorporated concrete shows increasing Flexural strength, splitting tensile strength, and shear strength up to 30% as compared to control RPC and gives minimal decrease in compressive strength by the addition of fibers. These characteristics make it as a promising material for casting non structural elements such as pressure pipes, flooring tiles, Partition panels, door and window frames. It can also be used as repair materials.


Copper slag is a rough blasting grit or a by-product acquired by the process of copper smelting and refining. These copper slags are recycled for copper recovery. In this paper, we analysed copper slag’s feasibility and evaluate its total competence in M25 grade concrete. In this observation, a concrete mixture is applied with copper slag as a fine aggregate ranging from 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% respectively. The strength of copper slag’s implementation is accomplished on the basis of concrete’s flexural strength, compressive strength and splitting tensile strength. From the obtained results, in concrete 40% percentage of copper slag is used as sand replacement. On 28 days, the modulus of elasticity increased up to 32%, the compressive strength increased up to 34% and flexural strength is increased to 6.2%. From this experiment, it is proved technically that replacing sand using copper slag as a fine mixture in M25 grade concrete.
