 ABSTRACT

The equivalent mixes were obtained by substitution natural sand by stone dust partly and
absolutely. But economy, technical viability& entrepreneur acceptance are other factors that
should be keep in mind while designing the concrete. Hence we also performed cost benefit
analysis of concrete while replacing conventional concrete by crushing dust mix concrete and
discussing the feasibility of crushing dust mix concrete for entrepreneur also. Experiments were
conducted on concrete cubes, & beams with various percentages of Stone (Crusher) Dust as Sand
i.e. 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%,90%, and 100% by weight of natural sand.
For each sample were tested for 7 days and 28 days compressive strength as well as flexural
strength test conducted. By testing these samples it has observed that there is an increment in the
various properties and strength of concrete by the addition of Stone (Crusher) Dust as Sand.
Maximum compressive strength is also at 50 % replacement. The percentage of increase compared
with control concrete for M20 and M30 respectively. Maximum flexural strength is also at 50 %
replacement. The percentage of increase compared with control concrete for M20 and M30
respectively.
KEYWORDS: - Crusher dust, workability, compressive strength, flexural strength, mix design
and grade of concrete .
