The compressive strength of concrete with waste quarry dust included as cement replacement was evaluated at 7, 14, 28, 60, 90, and 120 days. In general, lower compressive strengths were obtained compared to their equivalent reference mix, as the waste quarry dust content increased for the constant water-to-binder ratio mixtures.

Abstract. The production of aggregate for use in concrete production yielded a significant amount of fines fraction during the crushing operation at the quarry. The …

Quarry dust was acquired from a local construction-oriented quarrying company and integrated into both the geopolymer and cement-based systems. Raw QD was pre-processed by air-drying in an oven at 105 °C for 24 h and then manually ground using pestle and mortar, to obtain an average particle size of 90 μm.

Therefore, water to cement ratio was increased for concrete with quarry dust to sustain similar workability of conventional concrete [31,32]. On the other hand, the presence of quarry dust improved the mechanical characteristics and durability aspects of the concrete [29,33]. Quarry dust was also used in self-compacting concrete.

D. Quarry Dust: The dust is selected from the nearest source as raw materials without any processing of the dust from the quarry. E. Mixing of the Materials: The normal grade of the concrete that is used is M20 for normal construction purposes in India[4]. The mix deign is done separately for the quarry dust using the minimum void

Use of quarry rock dust as a fine aggregate in concrete draws serious attention of researchers and investigators. Marble powder has a very high Blaine fineness value of about 1.5 m2/g with 90% of ...

The partial replacement of quarry dust gave a 28 days' peak compressive strength at 40% replacement level and decreases for 50% replacement. Figure 3 shows the compressive strength relation for both normal concrete and quarry dust concrete, at the age of 28 days for M30, M25, and M20 grades of concrete for different w/c ratios of 0.45 …

This chapter discusses the use of quarry waste as cement and aggregate replacement, discussing the effects on fresh and hardened properties as well as …

Abstract: Quarry rock dust is investigated as fine aggregate in replacement with sand in cement concrete admixture, as the properties. of the rock dust are suspected to be as good as sand. This ...

Concrete with 50 % river sand and 50 % quarry dust performed better in flexure for both Bamboo Reinforced Concrete (BRC) and Steel Reinforced Concrete (SRC) at 28 days with strengths of 12.75 N/mm ...

The quarry dust based geopolymer cement was utilized at the rate of 10 to 150% by weight of dry soil in an increment of 10%. ... Geopolymer cement is the result of reaction of two materials ...

Consequently, this contributes to improve the strength of concrete. Through reaction with the concrete admixture, Marble sludge powder and quarry rock dust improved pozzolanic reaction, micro ...

Quarry dust (QD) was also used with normal Portland cement, silica fume and fly ash to prepare six types of concrete mixes which are designated as shown in Table 2. NPC concrete was considered as the control concrete. Quarry dust was used to replace 20% and 40% of sand respectively in preparing the concrete mixes containing …

There are many studies on the effects of quarry dust, such as marble dust, granite dust, crushed rock dust, and limestone powder, on the bleeding and segregation of cement-based composites [77,78,79,80,81]. In all the studies examined, it was emphasized that the use of non-pozzolanic fillers in mortar or concrete mixtures increased bleeding …

In this investigation, fly ash was substituted for the fine combination of Quarry Dust and cement. Partially substituting Fly Ash for Cement at 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. The increased moisture electrical resistance and resulting toughness that results from the micro-filling effect gives concretes a leg up on the competition. Compressive ...

The effects of the addition of dolomite-based quarry-dust (QD) waste material as a filler in CEM-I and FA-based geopolymeric mixtures were studied. This study shows that unused QD may be ...

The inclusion of quarry dust in cement bound materials and its effect on various properties of cement such as transport, dimensional stability, alkali-silica reaction, the heat of hydration and ...

Concrete with 50 % river sand and 50 % quarry dust performed better in flexure for both Bamboo Reinforced Concrete (BRC) and Steel Reinforced Concrete (SRC) at 28 days with strengths of...

Engineers have also used quarry dust as total replacement of sand in concrete. Quarry dust concrete for curing age of 28 days resulted higher compressive strength than river sand concrete [5] [6 ...

This study aims to assess the production of cellular micro-concrete, consisting of quarry dust, calcareous fly ash, cement, and aluminum powder as aerating agent. The proposed mixture design methodology is based on a Box–Behnken fractional factorial experimental design. Testing of specimens included compressive and flexural …

Compressive strength at 28 days of curing increased by 41.4% when river sand (3.94 MPa) was fully replaced by quarry dust (5.57 MPa). Published literature …

The chemical durability of QD bearing matrices was explored in the present study. One of the main concerns of using Mg-rich additives such as QD is the formation of magnesium hydroxide phase, brucite, which relates …

In general, quarry waste consists of different material types invariably known as "quarry fines", "quarry dust", "stone by-products", "recycled aggregates", "quarry powder wastes", and so forth [1,2,3]. Quarry dust is considered a residue that forms after rock crushing and screening, with particles less than 75 μm ...

Quarry dust is one of the waste materials abundantly available and pozzolanic material in the quarry industry. In doing so, physical tests of cement pastes and hollow concrete blocks of different ...

Plasticity index has reduced by about 97.4% for 50% quarry dust + 5% cement addition. 8. With the addition of quarry dust, angle of internal friction has witnessed an improvement and cohesion value has decreased.
