Effect of Partially Replace of Cement with Alccofine Metakolin and Coarse Aggregate with Bamboo in Concrete

Abstract

Abstract: The production of cement for concrete releases a significant amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, which is a major cause of global warming and the greenhouse effect. As a result, the construction industry must come up with a different material for cement. A ton of Strengthening Cementitious Materials (SCM) like silica exhaust, fly debris, Alccofine, powder of slag and so on. have previously been identified and successfully utilized as a partial substitute for cement in the production of concrete. Certain materials of mineral origin are also added to concrete to enhance their strength and durability properties of concrete materials such as Metakaolin and other by Alccofine. The partial replacement of aggregates is need for the future generation of concrete structures for the environment supportable. The depletion of the natural resources gets exhausted. We have think over the alternate replacement of the materials. In present work the partial replacement of the Metakaolin, Alccofine with the Cement and the Coarse aggregates is partially replaced by the Bamboo. Optimum value of strength in compression, split tensile and flexure came at MK and AF 14% replacement of the Metakaolin, Alccofine with the Cement and the Coarse aggregates is partially replaced by the 18% Bamboo. The workability of mixture increases and after that there is decrease in the workability of the concrete when we increase the percentage of Metakaolin, Alccofine with the Cement and the Coarse aggregates is partially replaced by the Bamboo. A series of experiment were carried out to measure the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength of the concrete. The results showed that the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength increases with the adding of the Metakaolin, Alccofine with the Cement and the Coarse aggregates is partially replaced by the Bamboo in concrete.
