Since lateritic sand and quarry dust are waste in environment they can be disposed by using in structural concrete. Lateritic sand and quarry dust were varied at different proportions. Fig 3. Flexural strength of concrete mixes for 28 days curing in N/mm2. Trial mix design was carried out for different W/C ratios.
For economic and engineering considerations, it is recommended to use 25% laterite replacement with sand to produce grade 30 concrete, while 50% laterite replacement is suitable for grade-25 concrete.
In one more investigation where natural sand is replaced with quarry dust to study the physical properties, mechanical properties and durability of concrete made by quarry dust with done by R. Ilangovana, N. Mahendrana and K. Nagamanib [7].Mix design has been developed for M20, M30 and M40 grade of concrete for both …
Abstract- This experimental study presents the variation in the strength of concrete when replacing sand by quarry dust from 0% to in steps of 10%. M20 and M25 grades of concrete were taken for study keeping a constant slump of 60mm. The compressive strength of concrete cubes at the age of 7 and 28 days were obtained at room …

Concrete cubes of 150mm were moulded for both river sand concrete and laterite-quarry dust concrete in accordance to BS EN 12390-1 (2000) and tested for their compressive strength ( f c
The main aim focus of this paper was to quarry dust partial replaces natural sand in concrete for studying the hardened strength properties of concrete. Natural sand was replaced with Quarry dust ...
quarry dust concrete is 10-12% more along with durability under sulphate and acid action. It also shown that the water absorption property of this concrete is slightly higher and lastly they have conclude that the replacement of natural sand with quarry dust, as full replacement in concrete is possible. To decide the water content and mix ...

The concept of replacement of natural fine aggregate by quarry dust which is highlighted in the study could boost the consumption of quarry dust generated from quarries. By replacement of quarry dust, the requirement of land fill area can be reduced and can also solve the problem of natural sand scarcity. The availability of sand at low …
The blocks comprised of different percentages of laterite soil (76%, 81%, 85% and 87%), quarry dust (9% and 10% by weight of the soil) and ordinary Portland cement (3%, 5%, 10% and 15% by weight of the soil. The results showed that cement content of 10% and 9% quarry dust was suitable for the block at any curing period above 7 days.
These mix ratios are used as a rule of thumb in Nigeria irrespective of their strength. 5.1 Compressive Strength Test and Cost of 1m3 of Concrete. Concrete cubes of 150mm were moulded for both river sand concrete and laterite-quarry dust concrete in accordance to BS EN 12390-1 (2000) and tested for their compressive strength (fc).
