Abstract

Now a day’s huge quantity of concrete consumption is increased. The availability of natural sand is low and also use of large amount of natural sand, affect the environment. So we have to choose alternative material for fine aggregate for this paper. Study about the partial replacement of fine aggregate by using Steel slag and M- sand. The main objective of this investigation is to study experimentally the effect of partial replacement of fine aggregate by Steel slag and M-sand on the various strength properties of concrete by using the mix design of M30 grade. Test specimen with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, & 50% of partial replacement of fine aggregate by steel slag and similarly using M-Sand specimen is 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, & 50% were cast and tested for compressive strength after curing period of 7 14 & 28 days. Steel slag and M-Sand is available at free of cost, the cost of concrete decreases, when the percentage of replacement increases. So, more the percentage of replacement, higher will be the reduction in cost.
