Stone Waste Solid Concrete Block. Sustainable Construction

      Аннотация: In this book, a brief introduction to the Stone Waste as Raw Materials in Concrete. This experimental and analytical research work is an effort to try to develop the awareness and importance of Stone waste material management and its utilization in a productive manner among the construction professionals. India is a pioneer in the exploration, mining of commercial rock deposits and in establishing a firm base for stone industry. The study concerns mainly on the possible use of stone waste in construction industry, which would reduce both environmental impacts and the production cost. The main objective of this investigation is to increase the strength of concrete blocks and decrease the cost of concrete blocks by replacing aggregates and cement with the Kota stone chips and sludge also include the granite chips for the replacement of the aggregates. This book describes the research work on concrete blocks and concrete in which industrial waste like Kota Stone Chips, Sludge and Granite Chips are partially replaced by aggregates and cement in concrete blocks with the tests related to the Compressive Strength, Water Absorption, Durability Test.
