REPROCESS OF DREDGED SEDIMENTED PARTICLES FROM COASTAL AREAS AS PARTIAL REPLACEMENT WITH RIVER SAND IN CONCRETE – A REVIEW

This paper present literature review on replacement of dredged particles as partial replacement with river sand in concrete. Dredged sedimented particles are dumped as waste material. Concrete is a major construction material used in the construction industry. River sand is used as fine aggregate in concrete and due to increase in the utilization of concrete in construction industry, the need for the river sand has been increased. The suitable alternate material may be required to meet the scarcity of river sand. Dredged sedimented sea sand is found to be suitable alternate for river sand as partial in concrete industry. This paper discusses the behavior of concrete by partial replacement of fine aggregate with dredged sedimented sea sand.
