Effect of Copper Slag on Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete and Conventional Concrete
Keywords:
SFRC, M30, M40Abstract
Because of Rapid growth of technology and population in India, there is a huge demand for construction material mostly for natural sand, of late excessive consumption of sand caused ecological economical imbalance. To overcome these effects large modifications are being carried out in construction industry, i.e. usage of by products as a replacement of fine aggregate. In the present study to increase the mechanical properties of concrete steel fibers are added to the concrete mix. Experimental investigation was carried out to evaluate the mechanical properties of SFRC and conventional concrete by replacement of sand (F.A.) with copper slag for different grades (M30, M40).Tests are conducted with 1% addition of hooked end steel fiber shaving aspect ratio 60 and replacement of copper slag by 0%, 10%....with increase in 10% up to where optimum strength is obtained.
