INTRODUCTION Quarry dust, is a by-product releases from the cutting and crushing process of stone which is a concentrated material to use as fine aggregates. By exploding mountain, rock will be crushed to
concluded that the compressive strength of concrete, with 50% Sand and 50% quarry dust (Mix 3), under thermo shock and high temperature showed the least reduction in strength. It was finally concluded that quarry dust can be effectively used for 50% replacement of sand in the conventional concrete. Utilization of Quarry Dust as Fine Aggregates ...
Quarry Rock Dust (QRD) can be defined as residue, tailing or other non-voluble waste material after the extraction and processing of rocks to form fine particles less than 4.75mm [4]. While, Quarry dust (QD) defined as the material less than 4 mm in size used in construction industry [5]. QD have been used as a
Usage of quarry dust also reduces the cost of concrete (economical) because it is a waste from the final harvest from quarries that in curred zero costing value. 3.
