There are lots of environmental impacts of cement on our ecology. Cement industry creating environmental problem by emission of CO2 during manufacturing of cement. Today researchers are more focusing towards the environment issue globally. On the other side Sugar cane bagasse ash generated in sugar mill creating environment issue as most of the part is used as a land fill. Fine aggregate is essential component of concrete and cement mortar. So, need for clean sand in the construction from the point of view of durability of structures. As the demand for Natural River sand is surpassing the availability, has resulted in fast depletion of natural sand sources. Robo sand is the answer for this problem especially when some states have already banned the use of river sand for construction. As per reports, Robo sand is widely used all around the world and technicians of major projects around the world insist on the compulsory use of Robo sand because of its consistent gradation and zero impurity. In the present study an experimental investigation of M30 grade concrete is considered to study the behavior of concrete. The workability, strength of the concrete values are studied by using slump cone test and compaction factor test as workability. The strength values are determined by using compressive strength test, split tensile strength test and flexural strength test. The percentage of SCBA and Robo sand used as 0%+0%, 2.5%+5%, 5%+10%, 7.5%+15%, 10%+20%, 12.5%+25%, and 15%+30%, in M30 grade concrete. Along with strength characteristics the acid resistance values are determined with different percentages of sugarcane ash and robo sand.
