natural coarse aggregate with recycled coarse aggregate and cement with fly ash. Application of recycled materials in
the building industry is essential for permanently sustainable development. Concrete is good in compression and weak
in tension. Low tensile strength and the poor resistance to cracking of the concrete lead to severe effect in its
properties. Introduction of fibers into concrete will increase its tensile strength and resistance to cracking.
Polypropylene fiber and glass fibers are chemically inorganic. Because of increase in coal based thermal power plants
there is an increment in the production of fly ash which is a waste material. If fly ash is not disposed properly it will
be hazardous. As a solution it is used in the concrete as a partial replacement of cement. This replacement reduces the
environmental pollution and improves the mechanical properties of concrete. This paper is focused on the
experimental program aimed at verifying selected material properties of Hybrid fiber reinforced concrete in which all
of the natural coarse aggregates are partially replaced by recycled aggregates and cement is partially replaced by fly
ash. The combination of recycled waste, fibers and binder creates an unusual fiber reinforced concrete which is a new
composite. In this study the percentages of recycled aggregate (25%), fly ash (20%) and polypropylene fibers (0.6%)
are fixed as per previous literatures. And with this combination, different percentages (0%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%
and 1.0%) of glass fibers are used to know the mechanical properties like compressive strength, split tensile strength
and flexural strength of the Hybrid fibre reinforced concrete. The optimum dosage of the glass fibres with 0.6%
polypropylene fibres is found at 0.6%.

with hybrid fibres to enhance the engineering properties such as compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and
flexural strength of normal concrete (NC) and Hybrid Fibre Reinforced Concrete (HFRC) with partial replacement of
GGBS in cement have been obtained from standard tests and compared. Alkali resistive Glass fibre (GF) and
polypropylene fibre (PF) were utilized as chemically inorganic strength inhibitors. Glass fibres are acquired from
molten glass of a specific composition. The replacement of cement with Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS)
in hybrid fibre reinforced concrete decreases ecological contamination and improves the mechanical properties of
concrete. In this study different percentages (0%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8% and 1.00%) of glass and polypropylene
fibres collectively act as a hybrid fibre with different percentages of GGBS (0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%) are
used to know their effect on the hybrid fibre reinforced concrete. Samples cast for testing are cubes, cylinders and
prisms. It is observed that at 1.4% (0.6% polypropylene and 0.8% glass fibres) addition of fibres and up to 20%
substitution of GGBS as the binder can improve the properties of concrete. Using of hybrid fibres and GGBS
improved all the three mechanical properties of concrete like compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural
strength of concrete.

structures. However, it causes the emission of a significant amount of CO2 to the atmosphere and therefore
contributes widely to the formation of the greenhouse effect. The increasing use of such OPC materials in
construction projects had led to the initiation of global environmental warming. The utilization of industrial byproduct in construction sector could become an important route for large-scale safe disposal of the industrial wastes
and reduction of construction cost. Ground Granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) is a by-product of the steel industry
which can be partially replaced with cement to reduce significantly many of the environmental burdens associated
with concrete. Polypropylene fibers tend to hold the concrete mix together. This slows the settlement of coarse
aggregate and thus reduces the rate of bleeding. This paper presents, the flexure and cracking behavior of RC beams
by partial replacement of cement with GGBS of 0%, 50% and 70%. Addition of polypropylene fibers decreases the unit
weight of concrete and increases its strength. 0.5% of polypropylene is added to cement. Experimental investigation
included testing of six reinforced concrete beams with and without GGBS. Portland cement is replaced with 50% and
70% GGBS. In this paper, the results of laboratory investigation conducted on the structural behavior of reinforced
concrete beam with various replacement levels of GGBS are presented. In addition, the concrete compressive and
tensile strength of the different mixes were evaluated at 7, 28 and 56 days. All the beam specimen were tested on the
two point loading. Data presented include the load-deflection characteristics, cracking behavior of the reinforced
concrete beams with and without GGBS when tested at 28 and 56 days. The investigation revealed that the
compressive and split tensile strength decreases by increasing of GGBS percentage, but increases with age. The
ultimate loading capacity of the beam specimens with 50% and 70% GGBS replacement are higher than that of the
without GGBS specimen by 2% and 3% respectively.

various methods like fiber reinforcement in concrete mixture and usage of certain admixtures including super
plasticizers to produce high strength of concrete. The cost of these methods are not comparable with their advantages,
thus most researchers concentrate their attention on producing economical concrete with higher strength using new
philosophies in design methods and through modern techniques.One such technique is using magnetic water (MW) in
concrete. In this technology, by passing water through a magnetic field, some of its properties can change. Usage
ofmagnetized water in concrete mixtures results in development of workability and compressive strength of concrete.
Also, this processed water cause reduction in cement content required for specified compressive strength value.In this
work it is proposed to study the effect of different types of water (Structured and Non Structured) on compressive
strengths of different grades of concrete. The results of tests showed that, concrete made with magnetic water of
intensity 0.6T (24Hrs) (magnetic concrete), has higher compressive strength values than those of Conventional

completely fill the formwork, even in the presence of dense reinforcement without any compaction, while maintaining
the homogeneity of concrete. SCC is also known as super workable concrete. In recent years certain countries have
consider the reutilization of construction and demolition waste as a new construction material has being one of the
main objectives with respect to sustainable construction activities. Currently, recycled coarse aggregate is mainly
being used as a substitute material for natural aggregate. This paper provides an overview on the experimental
investigation on the fresh and hardened properties of self compacting concrete using recycled coarse aggregate in
both processed and unprocessed state, and where the optimum percentage of recycled coarse aggregate required for
better results. In the present experimental investigation M35 grade of concrete was designed based on ‘Nan Su et-al
method’ of mix design. The natural coarse aggregate (NCA) was replaced by recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) at
different percentages such as 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. Various tests were performed on the recycled aggregates
in processed and unprocessed state. The mineral additive used in present study was class-F fly ash. To reduce the
water binder ratio and to increase the flow ability of SCC, poly carboxylic ether based super plasticizer was used. Tests
on SCC such as slump flow test, V-funnel test, L-box test, compressive strength, split tensile strength were carried out.
The fresh properties of SCC in processed state for 500 revolutions have shown better results compared to unprocessed
state. For SCC using processed (500, 1000 revolutions) and unprocessed RCA the optimum value of compressive
strength, split tensile strength value is obtained at 50% replacement of NCA with RCA for 14 and 28 days.

need for vibration. SCC is a non-segregating concrete that is placed by means of its own weight. SCC requires
considerably more quantity of fine particle as compared to traditional concrete to achieve self-compactibility. Reused
Aggregate is called as Recycled Coarse Aggregate (RCA) which is mainly obtained by crushing concrete of
demolished concrete structures. In this study, Nan-Su method of mix design is employed to obtain mix-proportions for
SCC and two grades of concrete mixes were used. This study aims to evaluate the impact resistance of SCC by
replacing NCA with different percentages of RCA (25%, 50%, 75%, 100% ) in unprocessed and various processed
states(500R, 1000R, 1500R, 2000R). For mix-A at 75% replacement of RCA and 1000 revolutions, for mix-B at 75%
replacement of RCA and 500 revolutions maximum impact resistance was found.

high quality materials are required to withstand the load on pavements. The non-uniform distribution of soil in
subgrade of pavement makes it weaker and needs to be stabilized in order to attain the strength. The current study
made use of natural enzymes to stabilize the soil, as it is cost effective and eco-friendly. An unconventional bioenzyme calledterrazyme which is a product of degradation of natural waste is used as a soil stabilizer. Index
properties of soil were evaluated to classify the soil and California Bearing Ratio was evaluated for samples with and
without terrazyme. The thickness parameter ws analyzed using CBR and it was found that the load bearing capacity

led to the development of various cementitious materials. These materials were incorporated in concrete making it
inexpensive and eco-friendly without compromising on the mechanical properties of the concrete. Sodium Bentonite,
a mineral admixture of this sort, is used as a replacement by weight of cement in designing a roller compacted
concrete pavement. Soil compaction method is used to determine the optimum moisture content of various mix
proportions. Cylinders were cast with cement percentages 10%, 15% and 20% varying with bentonite percentages of
0% and1% by using roller compaction. Compressive strength is evaluated for 3, 7 and 28 days. Test results stated that
15% of cement had achieved significant compressive strength for the conventional mix at 28 days. Though 20% of
cement with 1% of bentonite and 15% of cement with 1% of bentonite has achieved significant strengths, 15% of
cement with 1% of bentonite is considered as optimum mix proportion because of the rheology of this mix closer to a
roller compacted concrete pavement.

cement production is proved to be not environment friendly due to release of lot of carbon dioxide into the
atmosphere. Nearly one ton of cement production releases one tonne of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Researchers have made attempts to use industrial waste products like fly ash, silica fume, ground granulated blast
furnace slag (GGBFS) and rice husk ash as partial replacement to cement in the concrete production. However this
replacement levels are about 25% to 35% only. To further minimise the use of cement in construction industry,
geopolymer binders are developed. Geopolymer concrete is essentially concrete having coarse aggregate, fine
aggregate bonded with alkali activated Fly ash paste. Fly ash is activated by alkali silicate and alkali hydroxide
solution. For the fly alone to be activated by the alkali activator heat curing at 600C for about 24 hours is required. In
present investigation an attempt has been made to use class F fly ash along with GGBFS as source material to develop
alkali activated concrete which can be cured in the room temperature alone. The study includes the casting and
testing of alkali activated concrete using different proportions of source material to alkaline solution ratio, different
concentration of sodium hydroxide solution. The results indicated that the alkali activated concrete can be produced
using GGBFS and Fly ash as source materials and the curing of such concrete at room temperature alone produce
concrete of satisfactory compressive strength

with or upon the soil. Generally clayey soil has low strength. It is normally replaced with stronger soil material so as
to improve the strength but this is not advisable due to constraints. In this project the strength of soil is increased by
chemical stabilization by adding choline chloride chemical instead of replacing with stronger soil. The process of soil
stabilization refers to changing the properties of soil in order to improve its strength, durability, or other qualities. In
chemical stabilization, soil is stabilized by adding different chemicals. The main advantage of chemical stabilization is
that setting time and curing time can be controlled. Chemical stabilization includes the use of chemicals as
compaction aids to soils, as binders and water repellents, and as a means of modifying the behaviour of clay. It also
includes deep mixing and grouting. The initial strength of the soil is determined by conducting soil tests such as free
swell index, specific gravity test, sieve analysis, plastic limit, liquid limit, shrinkage limit, IS Heavy compaction test
and unconfined compression strength tests. The results obtained are then compared with the soil treated with 0.3%,
0.5%, 0.7% and 0.9% choline chloride (from reference 1).

fill the voids between the coarse aggregates. The most commonly used fine aggregate is natural river sand. Due to the
growth of population and urbanization, there is a rapid growth in construction activity thereby consuming a lot of
sand for concrete. At the present situation, there is a huge demand for sand and natural resources which are running
low. Hence there is a need for some substitute material which must satisfy their requirement of fine aggregate. Red
soil is one such material which is available is greater quantities. Studies have been conducted on red soil which was
collected from Dhammanapet in Warangal District. This study has been performed on M25 grade concrete using OPC
53-grade cement. Tests have been performed by replacing the fine aggregate with red soil by an equal increment of
10%. This experimental study concluded that there is a decrease in compressive strength and a slight increase in the
tensile strength of concrete with a decrease in workability by the replacement of Red soil in fine aggregates. Also
beyond 40% replacement of sand with red soil, there is difficulty in the casting of concrete cubes and cylinders and
the surfaces smoothness is reduced. However, at the 20% replacement, the required strength for the mix has been
obtained. Admixtures which increase the workability of concrete are suggested to be used with the red soil for the
future study.

Human and industrial activities are deteriorating the groundwater quantity and quality, which is a serious issue these
days. Analysis of groundwater quality thus attained significance in order to preserve and perfect the eco-system.
Determining the groundwater quality index (GWQI) is an analytical technique which can be adopted to get a clear
picture of extent of groundwater pollution. The present work is aimed at assessing the groundwater quality for the city
of Warangal, Telangana by determining the GWQI. For this purpose, samples of groundwater were collected from 11
different locations spreading across the city, in the month of December, 2018. To calculate the GWQI, the following
12 groundwater quality parameters have been considered: pH, Alkalinity (AL), Total Solids (TS), Hardness, Chlorides
(Cl), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Fluoride (F), Sodium (Na), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Potassium (K) and
Electrical Conductivity (EC) for both pre monsoon and post monsoon period. Most of the parameters were not found
to be in the desirable range for the purpose of drinking. The GWQI of samples from 11 locations was found to be
ranging from 136.7 to 412.5 during post monsoon period, indicating poor, very poor and unsuitability of groundwater
for drinking purpose. For pre monsoon period, GWQI values were found to be ranging from 85.98 to 295.02
representing that only 3 locations are of good ground water quality and remaining locations are with poor quality.
Also the samples collected during Pre-monsoon were analyzed for Heavy Metal Pollution Index (HPI) and the values
were found to be ranging from 0.07 to 94.48 indicating the traces of heavy metals and its significant effect on ground
water quality.This analysis revealed that, the groundwater in locations from industrial areas is highly contaminated
and found to be unsuitable for drinking. Remaining 75% of samples from the area are also found to be poor in quality
where certain amount of treatment before consumption is must.

elements, such as carbon or silicon, may be considered ceramics. Ceramic materials are brittle, hard, strong in
compression, and weak in shearing and tension. They withstand chemical erosion that occurs in other materials
subjected to acidic or caustic environments. Ceramics generally can withstand very high temperatures, ranging from
1,000 °C to 1,600 °C (1,800 °F to 3,000 °F). Glass is often not considered a ceramic because of its amorphous (non
crystalline) character. However, glassmaking involves several steps of the ceramic process, and its mechanical
properties are similar to ceramic materials. In this context, ceramics are being used as aggregates and then these
ceramics are being replaced with aggregates by 30% of the total weight of ceramics. The tests performed are
Aggregate impact test, aggregate crushing test, aggregate abrasion test, and specific gravity and water absorption test.
The results of both the cases i.e. tests performed only on ceramics and tests performed by replacing 30% of ceramics
are compared and the appropriate conclusions are given.

product next to water. The Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) is one of the main ingredients used for the production of
concrete. Unfortunately, production of cement involves emission of large amount of carbon dioxide gas into the
atmosphere, a major contributor for the greenhouse effect and global warming. Large scale production of cement is
causing environmental problems. Many efforts are being made to reduce the use of Portland cement in construction.
These efforts include the utilization of supplementary cementitious materials in place of Portland cement. In this present
work cement has been replaced with Fly ash (FA), Silica fume (SF) & GGBS by the weight of cement by keeping constant
percentages of cement at 50% and SF at 10% for M30 mix. The properties studied are 7 days & 28 days Compressive

specimens were cured for 28days. The addition of fly ash shows long-term strength. It was found that the ternary
system that is ordinary concrete Portland cement, fly ash, basalt fiber increases the mechanical properties of
concrete at all ages compared to concrete made with fly ash and basalt fiber.

properties of a high strength concrete with alccofine. High strength concrete is manufactured by partially replacing
cement with alccofine and fly ash. In this study, fly ash was used in a constant proportion of 20% and alccofine at 0, 6,
8, 10, 12 and 14% by weight of cement. The proportions of the concrete mix had a constant binder/water ratio of 0.25
and a superplasticizer was added depending on the degree of workability required. The concrete samples were cured in
normal wet curing at normal atmospheric temperature. The results indicate that concrete manufactured with these
proportions generally has excellent hardening and freshness properties since the combination is somewhat synergistic.
The addition of Alccofine shows an initial property of strength gain and that of fly ash a long-term resistance. It has
been found that the ternary system consisting of ordinary Portland concrete, fly ash and alccofine, increases the
mechanical properties of concrete at any age compared to concrete made with fly ash and Alccofine alone.

intensities subjected to different durations of time. The magnetized water in the cement matrix behaves as a main
property which reduces the salinity in water. It also increases the strength because the magnetic water is used for
casting and curing. The voids in the concrete get reduced due to the heat of hydration(less surface area). Magnetic
water obtained from different intensities with 0.2T,0.4T, 0.6T magnetic water casting for 12hours,24hours normal
curing (28 days) , and also magnetic water casting with magnetic water curing for 12hours, 24 hours (28 days) on the
structural properties such as compressive strength , split tensile strength , flexural strength test. The replacement of
portable water with magnetic water rapidly increases the compressive strength of concrete. The magnetic water curing
promoting hydration of cement by controlling the temperature and moisture in this study it is found that the magnetic
water does not mean that water has been acquired magnetic strength but it has also been subjected to the magnetic
field.
