Abstract

This study presents the experimental investigation on concrete with fully replacement of fine aggregate by
M-sand and is partially replaced by Pond ash. Concrete is the most abundantly used material in the present
development world. Many researches are carried out in making concrete as environment friendly which means
Green Concrete and low cost concrete by using industrial by-products effectively. The desired concrete with varying
percentage of pond ash by weight of fine aggregate 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%. Properties of pond ash
concrete in fresh and hardened state were stated for 7 and 28 days of curing, and results are compared with
conventional concrete. The Mix design is done for M-30 grade of concrete adopted mix ratio is of 1:2.15:3.53.
Compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength increases with increase in curing period due to
pozzolonic property of pond ash. Hence usage of pond ash in concrete as replacement for M-sand becomes a
sustainable material in the field of construction.
