Study on Partially Replacing Cement with Groundnut Shell and Sugarcane Bagasse Ash with adding Asbestos Fibre

Abstract

Abstract: The industrial waste contains many inorganic and toxic substances far away the acceptable limit which cause an impact on the environment. Scarcity of the const. materials used the natural resources like sand aggregates and stone aggregate. The partial replacement of aggregates is need for the future generation of concrete structures for the environment supportable. 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 GSA,SBA with the Cement and the addition of asbestos fiber. Optimum value of strength in compression, split tensile and flexure came at GSA,SBA 12% replacement with the Cement and addition of asbestos fiber 0.5%. The workability of mixture increases and after that there is decrease in the workability of the concrete when we increase the percentage of GSA,SBA with the Cement. 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 GSA,SBA with Cement and the addition of asbestos fiber.
