Industrial wastes like fly ash, rice husk ash, marble dust, etc. are found to be an efficient alternative for cement as their composition are identical as that of cement & in particular they produce less heat of hydration.

In the present investigation,marble dust obtained after processing of marble waste has been used as a filler material i.e. as replacement of fine aggregate. This study investigates the optimum partial replacement of cement in concrete with marble dust in conjunction with super-plasticizers. This investigation proved the feasibility of marble dust as an economic and eco-friendly replacement of cement. The slump and compressive strength of the concrete was improved when 5%, 10% & 15% of weight of cement was replaced with marble dust in preparation of M20 concrete. This paper provides the scope for more research that if the marble dust is used as a replacement of cement in conjunction with super-plasticizers ,the problem of sustainable, economical and environment friendly concrete can be resolved.

The production and consumption of cement is increasing day by day due to heavy demand of infrastructure development. Heavy production of cement is a matter of concern for environment as well. Civil engineering researches are continuously striving to explore the alternative material which may replace partially the cement without compromising the quality aspects. The replacement of materials offers cost reduction, energy savings and protection of environment. Fly ash and rice husk ash was used as a replacement of cement in some literature works but this investigation discovers the feasibility of the substitution of fly ash and rice husk ash for cement to achieve economy and environment friendly concrete. In the present investigation optimum percentage of replacement of cement with combination of fly ash and rice husk ash in conjunction with super plasticizers for nominal mix (M20) grade of concrete has been evaluated. Parameters selected for investigation are workability and compressive strength. The research work as M-tech dissertation was carried out as per the standards in the controlled situation at the civil engineering laboratory of NITTTR, Bhopal (India). The results of investigation and evaluation of study has proved that the selected materials as mentioned above may be useful for partial replacement of cement as presented in the results and ultimately helping the environment.

Huge amount of waste generated through different sources are burden over our resources, occupying huge amount of land area and polluting our environment by emitting harmful gases. Construction industries provide a wide platform in reusing these waste materials as an alternative of some conventional materials. Industrial waste like fly ash rice husk slags etc. were found suitable for replacement of conventional materials like cement & sand in previous studies. These materials inhibit identical properties as that of conventional materials and thus can be used as substitute materials in production of concrete. Jute fibres & other waste fibre were also found useful in providing tensile strength to concrete in previous studies. In present investigation, properties of concrete prepared by partial replacement of cement with fly ash i.e. at 10%, 20% & 30% along with addition jute fibre & super plasticizer were investigated. Testing was carried out at concrete technology lab of NITTTRBhopal.

Rice husk is a by-product of the rice milling process, with inexact generation of 200 kg for every one ton of rice. Diffusion of Rice Husk Ash in the concrete matrix enhance the properties of the concrete. This investigation has been done to determine the strength parameters of concrete with various extents of cement supplemented by Rice Husk Ash. M20 grade concrete (Designed as per Indian standards) was tried with substitutions by weight of the cement amount by 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10% and 15%. Various strength Test results reveal enhancement of strength at 5% substitution of cement by rice husk with compressive strength and flexural strength having an increment of 9.78% and 25.09% respectively as compared to the control mix. Pulse velocity test of the modified concrete at 5% replacement of cement by rice husk ash confirms it as a "good" dense Concrete matrix.

Along with the increase in population, unbounded pumping of raw materials for production of materials and urbanization of the environment, there is wide range of increase in harmful emissions and waste generation. Mineral resources are limited significantly. Resources to feed our growing population are limited as well as the materials required to construct buildings and infrastructure. The use of auxiliary cementitious materials such as fly ash (FA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). Recent studies show a steady increase in use of fly ash and blast furnace slag in construction industry as an economical and effective solution for partial replacement of cement. An arduous issue when replacing cement is that the auxiliary materials affect concrete properties variously according to several factors such as the grade of cement, percentage of replacement, curing periods and environment condition. In order to determine how the concrete strength and its rheological properties can be affected by auxiliary material, this study investigates the strength properties of M25 grade of composite cement concrete in which coarse aggregate is replaced with 30% of recycled aggregate and fine aggregate is replaced with 20% & 30% of stone dust. The outcomes indicated that the addition of recycled aggregate and stone dust in composite cement concrete enhances not only the mechanical strength but also workability which eventually improves the properties of concrete.

The aim of this study is to modify the expansive soil using waste paper sludge into a stabilized soil to make it an asset for construction of various structures. Soil sample was supplemented with different percentage of waste paper sludge ash i.e. at 2%, 5%, 7%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight and various laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the modified properties of the soil. Tests such as plastic limit, liquid limit, shrinkage limit, standard proctor compaction, unconfined compressive strength test and California bearing ratio test (soaked and unsoaked condition) were conducted on the modified soil sample i.e. expansive soil mixed with Waste Paper Sludge at different proportions. As an outcome of the study, it was observed that addition of Waste Paper Sludge as stabilizing agent reduces the liquid limit value, plastic limit value and enhance the shrinkage limit value up to 20%. The proctor test result indicates that with the increase in waste paper sludge content there was an increase in the optimum moisture content and reduction in the maximum dry density. Laboratory experiments results depicted that the 7% is the optimum percentage of waste paper sludge addition in the soil for obtaining higher strength. Furthermore, California bearing ratio (soaked and unsoaked) values improved with percentage increase in Waste Paper Sludge. The optimum value of Waste Paper Sludge for obtaining better California Bearing Ratio value is 10%.
