Non-Destructive Test on Granite Powder Concrete

Abstract

This paper presents a definite exploratory investigation on penetrability qualities of granite powder (GP) concrete. The primary parameter researched in this investigation was M30 and M60 grades concrete with substitution of sand by GP of 0, 25,50 and 100 and concrete as fractional supplanting with super plasticiser, fly ash, slag and silica fume. The antacid arrangement utilized for present examination is the mix of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate arrangement. The test example was 50 mm (thick) x 100 mm (diameter) cylinder shapes heat-relieved at 60°C in an oven. The variety was concentrated on the examples exposed to ambient air just as oven heat relieving. non-destructive tests on cylinders with the help of rebound hammer for a time of 28, 56, 90, 180 and 365 days. The test outcomes show that the substitution of rock and incomplete substitution of admixtures display better execution
