Experimental Study on Alternative Material for Conventional Fine and Coarse Aggregate in Concrete
This paper deals with the experimental study of physical and chemical properties of laterite sand, foundry sand, EPS beads, and recycled coarse aggregate (RCA), as a suitable replacement for conventional fine and coarse aggregate (FA & CA). The suitability of alternative materials listed above is individually studied for compressive strength of concrete by varying the percentage replacement in 20, 50, 80, and 100% to conventional materials. The physical and chemical properties of foundry sand were superior to laterite sand, whereas the increase in the percentage of replacement in concrete resulted in strength reduction in both laterite and foundry sand. Concrete with replaced foundry sand failed to reach the benchmark strength, thus making it unsuitable for structural use. RCA was found to be the best alternative considering increasing C&D wastes and strength gain properties of concrete.
