Performance Studies on Utilization of Ceramic Waste Tile and Quarry Dust as Partial Replacement of Gravel and Sand in Concrete

This paper present the experimental results obtained from the incorporation of ceramic waste tile CWT and quarry dust QD as a partial replacement to coarse and fine aggregate with different percentages in concrete. The concrete specimens were casted with ceramic waste tile as coarse aggregate replacing with natural coarse aggregate at 0 , 5 , 10 , and 15 , followed by quarry dust replacing with fine aggregate at 0 , 20 , 40 , and 60 respectively. The experimental results at fresh state shows that the maximum slump is attained at 0 which is 50mm and the compacting factor test result shows 0.92mm at 0 . A total 54 samples of Cubes, cylinders and beams were cast and tested for compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength at 7,14 and 28 days of curing respectively. The results show that the percentage increase in CWT and QD will decrease in strength compared to the normal concrete. The experimental compressive strength, flexural strength and tensile strength concrete containing ceramic waste tile and quarry dust are presented in this paper.
