Abstract

Concrete is the significant material used in various types of construction, from the flooring of a building to multi-storied high rise structures and pavements. It is necessary to consider the sustainability, availability and the choice of material which impacts the performance and strength of concrete. The main aim of the present study is to determine the compressive strength of different concrete mixes of M40 grade for 7days and 28 days, with replacement of river sand (CRS) and with M-Sand (CMS) of different graded coarse aggregate. A comparative study is made between compressive strength of CRS and CMS mixes. From the results, it is observed that compressive strength of two mixes of CMS has shown good results to a fair degree of accuracy.

Keywords
