Abstract

This study was done to check if the stone dust can be used as a partial replacement to fine aggregate. The tests like compressive strength, Split Tensile Strength, Flexural Strength, Density, Modulus of Elasticity, and Permeability were conducted on cubes, beams, and cylinders. Concrete of M30 was designed for W/C ratio of 0.45. The present research work shows that the characteristics of concrete using stone dust and copper slag as partial replacement to fine aggregate are superior when compared to the control concrete.
