Experimental Study on Compressive Strength of Concrete with Rubber Seed Shell and Silica Fume

Abstract

Concrete is an synthetic cloth similar in appearance and houses to some herbal lime stone rock. It is a man a made composite, the major constituent being herbal mixture along with gravel or beaten rock, sand and great particles of cement powder all blended with water. The concrete as time is going on thru a system of hydration of the cement paste, generating a required energy to withstand the weight. The use of rubber seed shell as coarse mixture in concrete has not ever been a ordinary repetition some of the average citizens, in particular in regions wherein light weight concrete is required for non-load bearing partitions, non-structural flooring, and strip footings. Rubber is grown in greater than ninety three international locations. South East Asia is regarded because the beginning of India. India has the major cultivation of rubber about 18 million tones production yearly with 3 million hectares region. The experiment was performed on concrete containing the Rubber seed shell and Silica fume because the partial alternative of Cement and coarse combination at 5%,10%,15%.
