An Experimental Investigation on Strength Properties of Concrete by the Partial Replacement of Cement with Rice Husk Ashand Fine Aggregate by Waste Foundry Sand Samples
Concrete for now being the utmostwidespread and most budget construction material has major inadequacies in terms of surrounded energy and is also one of the major causes of greenhouse gas effect. In this project is to use rice husk ash for the replacement of cement which is a byproduct of rice milling industry, RHA have a pozzolanic property in it and two Waste foundry sand samples i.e half burnt –Recycled weathered waste foundry sand and Fully burnt waste foundry sand and are replaced with fine aggregate and comparison between both the samples is studied .WFS samples are the by-product of the metal castings industry typically comprising uniformly sized sands. There is an argent need of alternative substituents material for the building construction in order to reduce the cost of construction for the development of rural areas. The main aim of this project is to reduce the release of CO2 gas from concrete. The objectives of the project are; the use of industrial wastes in place of conventional raw materials will help to decrease the environmental pollution and also conserve our natural resources. The development of alternate low-cost and ecologically suitable building materials from agricultural and industrial wastes is an economic necessity. To identify various industrial wastes suitable for utilization in cement manufacture. To examine the constraints related to utilization of industrial waste Current demand of cement is far in excess of production and is rapidly increasing In this project we have done a comparative study on both the waste foundrysand samples with rice husk ash concrete ingredients and have discussed about the properties and how it enhances the mechanical properties of concrete i.e., increases the compressive strength, and tensile strength and flexural strength of concrete based on several research papers.
