1 CHARACTERISTIC STRENGTH OF CONCRETE BY PARTIAL REPLACEMENT WITH SAWDUST AND WASTE CERAMIC TILES S.Vinothkumar 1 ,S.venkat Raman 2 Assistant Professor 1,2 ,Department of Civil Engineering 1,2 BIST, BIHER, Bharath University [email protected] ABSTRACT A huge amount of fired materials changes into wastage amid preparing, transporting and settling because of its fragile nature. Consequently, utilising these losses in solid creation could be a compelling measure in keeping up the earth and enhancing the properties of cement. Utilising waste material as a substitution of totals will prompt less cost of material, give a simple approach to transfer of waste Hence, the pulverised waste clay tiles were utilised as a part of concrete as a trade for coarse totals and sawdust for fine totals with 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% of substitution and the trademark quality of cement contemplated. INTRODUCTION Construction industry strives to evolve new technologies and processes to streamline the work process. Concrete, the most widely adopted construction material all over the world has undergone many changes in its manufacturing process depending upon the requirements of the structure, development of new admixtures and the availability of material locally. Building materials contribute to 60 to 70 percent of the cost of construction and the use of conventional construction materials like cement, steel. Concrete and timber showed an increase in the cost of construction over many years. In our country, the cost of construction is being increased by 15 to 18 percent every year due to increase in rate of materials[1-8]. The increasing environment concerns, economy, valuation in quality and the seasonal nature of the manufacturing process have brought about the need for improvement in the manufacture of concrete. Concrete is a heterogeneous mixture of cement, fine and coarse aggregates. Crushed stones of suitable sizes as coarse aggregates and the river sand as fine aggregates are adopted in conventional concrete. Although river sand is usually available in many areas of the country, it would be economical to use locally available materials as substitutes to river sand as fine aggregate in making mortars and concrete. Sawdust is one along such materials which is available in large quantities from crusher units[9-14]. The use of sawdust is making concrete and mortar by partial replacement of natural river sand not only provides economy in the cost of construction but at the same time solves the problem of disposal waste on environment. Similarly the use of broken ceramic tiles for International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Volume 119 No. 12 2018, 9359-9374 ISSN: 1314-3395 (on-line version) url: http://www.ijpam.eu Special Issue ijpam.eu 9359
