A Review on Study of Compressive Strength of Site from Quarry Dust as Replacement of Fine Aggregate in Concrete

Abstract

The concept of replacing or replacing materials such as quarry dust with natural aggregates highlighted in the study could
increase consumption of quarry dust. By replacing pit dust, landfill space requirements can be reduced and the problem of scarcity of natural sand can also be solved. The availability of inexpensive sand as fine aggregate in concrete is insufficient, so an alternative material is sought. Quarry Dust follows the logic of alternative material as a very inexpensive substitute for sand. It even brings the burden of discharging crusher dust to a place that causes environmental pollution. Based on the results of the experimental investigations carried out, it is concluded that quarry dust can be used as a substitute for fine aggregates. It is observed that, by replacing 40% of the fine aggregate with quarry dust, a maximum strength is obtained, which normal concrete reduces by 50%.
