Influence of Granite Cutting Waste and Recycled Concrete on Properties of Self Compacting Concrete

Abstract

This paper explains the combined effect of granite cutting waste and recycled concrete on the workability and mechanical properties of self compacting concrete. Experimental plan is divided in such a way that granite cutting waste is replaced with fine aggregate at 0, 20,40,60,80 and 100% proportions. Recycled concrete is replaced with the coarse aggregate starting from 20 to 100%. Total 36 mixes were designed to check the fresh and hardened properties. Slump flow and T500, v-funnel and L-box test are conducted to know the flow ability and passing ability of concrete. To study the hardened properties compressive strength, flexural strength test values are to be collected.
