Abstract :

This research work is done to obtain different properties of demolished recycled aggregate concrete using different types of artificial sand shahabad stone crushed sand, to find the optimum percentage replacement of recycled coarse aggregate in concrete with complete replacement of natural sand by artificial sand. Use of recycled aggregate in concrete can be useful for environment protection artificial sands are one of the most used among such materials to replace natural sand, which can be used as an alternative to fine aggregate in concrete. River sand which is one of the basic ingredients in the manufacture of concrete has become highly scares and expensive. Therefore looking for an alternative to river sand has become a necessity. Hence the artificial sand which is also known as Robosand can be used as an alternative material for the natural sand. To carry out this experimental work the basic materials of concrete were tested as per Indian standard codes and the specimens were casted using recycled coarse aggregate and the specimens were constant 100% replacement of natural sand by artificial sand with. no additional admixtures. Concrete with a characteristics compressive strength of 20 N/mm2 (M20 Grade) was used for our study. In total 18 sets (3 cubes in each set) each were casted and tested.
