Abstract-This experimental investigation on strength of concrete and optimum percentage of the partial replacement by preparing a mix M20 grade was designed as per Indian Standard method and the same was used to prepare the test samples. The design mix proportion used were Conventional Concrete, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% replacement of cement by industrial waste like fly ash and hypo sludge.In the test performed,the optimum compressive stress obtained by utilizing paper waste was at 30% replacement. At the place where strength is not of more importance or rather structure is for temporary basis then design mix proportion up to 40% replacement can also be utilized.Test also point towards developing low cost concrete by varying design mix proportion from 10%replacement to 40%replacement. The compared values of cost show gradual decrement in total cost of per cubic meter concrete. The difference in costfrom normal concrete to partially replaced concrete is about Rs.850/-.When government implement the projects for temporary shelters for who those affected by natural disaster, this material can be used for economic feasibility.To investigate the utilization of Hypo Sludge and fly ash as Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) and influence of these hypo sludge and fly ash on the Strength of concretes made with different Cement replacement levels and compare with ordinary concrete.
Investigate low cost concrete by using hypo sludge and fly ash as SCM and
