Abstract :

New ideas and innovations have always been the hallmark of progress made by mankind. At every stage of development, there have been two core factors that drive man to ideas and innovation. Market size and consumer perception about the product is very important for every business .This factor are determine the business are going successfully or unsuccessfully. Market size is the major indicating channel of the product. Wastage recycling is another major important factor for reduce the wastage and utilize the resource in successfully. Now the expectation of the people is high but resource is limited, then the user/ innovators the can find out wastage material to utilize successfully and redemption of wastage material dumped to land or river. This research can be able to find out the demand for this product and how to utilize successfully. The development of construction materials have posed problems and challenge that initiated worldwide research programs and continued conventional and non conventional applications leading to ultimate economy. Researchers developed waste management strategies to apply for advantages for specific needs. The use of Copper Slag (CS) and Ferrous Slag (FS) in concrete provides environmental as well as economic benefits for all related industries, particularly in areas where a considerable amount of Copper slag and Ferrous Slag is produced. Owing to the scarcity of fine aggregate for the preparation of mortar and concrete, partial replacement of Copper Slag and Ferrous Slag with sand have been attempted. Copper Slag and Ferrous Slag are by products obtained during matte smelting and refining of Copper Slag and Ferrous Slag. This work reports an experimental procedure to investigate the effect of using Copper Slag and Ferrous Slag as partial replacement of sand. The strength characteristics of conventional concrete and slag concrete such as compressive strength, tensile strength were found This topic can be useful to know the Industrial consumer perception of this product and demand for the copper slag and phospho gypsum, and that made me to choose this topic.
