PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF CEMENT WITH TILE POWDER IN M40 GRADE CONCRETE
Keywords:
GENERAL, INTRODUCTION TO CEMENT CONCRETE, TILE POWDERAbstract
Ceramic waste deposit causes different types of environmental pollutionlikeair, water and soil pollution. Tile powder is a fine residue after manufacturing of tiles.Chemical composition tests conducted on the ceramic tile provedthat it contains 64.56% silica, which is a predominentfeature of pozzolans. The useof waste products produced by tile industries has been focused to reduce it for industries and economical reasons.The usage of more cement in concrete becomes uneconomical which is partially replacedwith tile powderin cement concrete.For this purpose, the concrete specimens are prepared by partially replacing the cement with tile powder at different percentages like 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% (by weight). These specimens are tested for compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength after 7, 28 and 56 days of curing. These values are compared with the test values of conventional concrete.The test results provesthat the average compressive strength, split-tensile strength and flexural strengthof the concreteare achieved up to 30% replacement of cement with tile powder without affecting the characteristics of M40 grade concrete.
