This paper presents the feasibility of the usage of quarry rock dust and marble sludge powder as hundred percent substitutes for natural sand in concrete.
Usually, Quarry Rock Dust is used in large scale in the highways as a surface finishing material and also used for manufacturing of hollow blocks and lightweight concrete prefabricated Elements. Use of Quarry rock dust as a fine aggregate in concrete draws serious attention of researchers and investigators.
The result shows that 25% of quarry dust and 75% of cement is the best percentage that can be used in concrete mixture to reach the standard strength. From an economic point of view, the proposed optimum concrete mix was found to be the most economical with the reducing of RM 33 per 1 m 3 of the concrete mixture.
It was observed from the experimental results that when 40% of the quarry dust was used as a replacement for fine aggregates, the concrete exhibited the highest strength.

Properties of Green Concrete Containing Quarry Rock Dust and Marble Sludge Powder as Fine Aggregates. Journal of Engineering and Applied Science, Vol. 4(4), pp. 83-89.
rock dust and marble sludge powder may be used as a replacement material for fine aggregate. The replacement of fine aggregate with 50% marble sludge powder and 50% Quarry rock dust …
Quarry rock dust The quarry rock dust was obtained from local crusher at Kariapatti, Virudunagar District. The specific gravity of the quarry rock dust is 2.677. Moisture content and bulk density of waste are less than the sand properties. Fine aggregate Medium size …
Material used for green concrete are-cement, quarry rock dust and marble sludge powder (replacement of sand), course aggregate, water and admixtures. Whole project work is completely based on Indian standard code. Indian standard code used in this project are as follows:-IS : 456 : 2000 ( Indian standard Plain and reinforced concrete code of ...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of stone powder (substitute) in concrete when mixed with concrete to ensure workability, durability, and strength of concrete using OPC (class 43). Efforts to improve concrete performance in recent years suggest that natural substitutes for sand, combined with grout, can improve the strength and durability of concrete. …
The usage of plentiful raw discarded resources in the manufacturing of concrete has proven to be a sustainable and environmentally beneficial method of making concrete for a variety of purposes. In this study, the physical and mechanical properties of concrete made by partially and fully substituting fine aggregates and ordinary Portland cement with periwinkle shell ash …
powder and quarry rock dust is used as fine aggregate in the [3]. The main aim of this project is to find out properties of green concrete containing quarry rock dust and marble sludge powder as …
Mix design and specimen preparation. This study used two different grades of concrete, namely M15 (1:2:4) and M20 (1:1.5:3), with different proportions of quarry dust …
Coarse aggregate and Recycled Coarse Aggregate (RCA) were mixed with the ratio 50:50 and Quarry Rock Dust (QRD) was used as fine aggregate in all concrete specimens. 3% of gypsum and 1% of sisal fibers were added to all specimens with respect to volume of concrete. ... In green concrete zero percent cement was added thus absence of clinkers in ...

The escalating demand for natural resources within the construction industry is progressing upward. At the same time, however, there is a great concern regarding the depletion of these resources. This review paper emphasizes the significance of utilizing alternative aggregate materials in concrete. Particularly, it aims to explore replacing natural sand with …
The reduction in the sources of natural sand and the requirement for reduction in the cost of concrete production has resulted in the increased need to identify substitute material to sand as fine aggregates in the production of concretes especially in Concrete. Quarry dust, a by-product from the crushing process during quarrying activities is one of such materials. Granite fines or …
Therefore, this study recommends that if partial replacement of sand with quarry dust upto 10% in M35 grade of concrete is done, the effective waste management can contribute towards …
Quarry rock dust (QRD), a waste obtained during the quarrying process is a significant source of air pollution yet has the potential of becoming a sustainable and economical alternative to sand in concrete. Studies confirmed that replacing sand in conventional concrete with QRD increases its durability and robustness by ten percent.
The green house gas emission produced in the cement consumption also causes the degradation to the nature [1]. Therefore the concrete industry causes the serious threats to the environment. ... The dust from rock quarry used in the concrete mix as per IS 383:1970 and the grade is considered as second zone. The coarse aggregates as per IS 383: ...
Quarry rock dust concrete experiences better sulphate and acid resistance and its permeability is less, compared to that of conventional concrete. However, the water absorption of Quarry Rock Dust ...
Therefore, this research was to observe the possibility of quarry dust to be included in a concrete mix. The quarry dust has been used as a partial replacement for cement proportion at different ...
Quarry dust was used in increments of 25% to a maximum of 75% substitution, where nickel slag was used as the remaining proportion of fine aggregate. All the combinations of quarry dust and nickel slag were found to be compliant with AS 2758.1 and they showed notably better grading than sand.
This paper presents the fresh and hardened properties of high-strength concrete comprising byproduct fine crushed aggregates (FCAs) sourced from the crushing of three different types of rocks, namely granophyre, basalt, and granite.
