Student M.E. Structural Engineering, Darshan Institute of Engineering and Technology Rajkot, India, India
ABSTRACT
—the global consumption of aggregate is very high due to the extensive use of concrete. In particular, the demand of aggregate is quite high in developing countries due to rapid infrastructural growth. The shortage of aggregate and steep rise in its cost. So, overall project cost of construction is also increase. These factors have resulted in finding an alternate source of material for aggregate in the construction field. In other side the ceramic and marble industries have problem of dumping waste generated from production. An attempt has been made to find the suitability of the possible substitute for ceramic wastes as conventional coarse aggregate and marble waste as fine aggregate with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% and grade is M25, M30 and M35 with curing period of 7and 28 days. The compressive, flexural and split tensile strength of concrete with ceramic and marble waste is determine and compare them with conventional concrete.
