Description

Due to the day by day innovations and development in the construction field, the use of natural aggregate is very high and at the same time production of solid waste from the demolitions of construction is also very high. Because of these reasons the reuse of demolished constructional waste and granite powder came into the picture to reduce the solid waste and reduce the scarcity of natural aggregates. The crushed waste tiles and granite powder are used as the replacement to the coarse and fine aggregate. The composition of waste crushed tile were replaced in place of coarse aggregate by 20% , 30%, 40 % and granite powder were replaced in the place of fine aggregate by 20 % , 30%,40 % with nominal mix. Experimental investigation like compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength test with different percentage of waste crushed tile and granite powder after 7 and 28 days curing period.
