The fineness modulus of sand used in ordinary concrete is 3.7-1.6, medium sand is suitable, and coarse sand plus a small amount of fine sand can also be used, and the ratio is 4 to 1. For natural sand, one fineness modulus can have multiple gradations. For artificial sand, one fineness modulus corresponds to only one gradation.

Use a 16mm (5/8 inch) masonry bit and a hammer drill to drill your drainage holes. Drill straight through the concrete layer, and into the ground. If the problems are limited to a few puddles, concentrate on drilling there. If it …
Aggregate: – Locally available river sand as fine aggregate (4.75mm to 75 micron (0.2 to 0.003 in)) is used. Artificial sand (4.75mm to 75 micron (0.2 to 0.003 in)) is used for partial replacement to natural sand. Natural and artificial sand are from zone II …
The term "robo sand" refers to artificial sand that is created by crushing real granite. A crushed granite aggregate created by crushing natural granite stone is known as robo sand. ... and Robo sand concrete's design mix for M30 has been computed using IS 10262-2009. Robo sand was used in tests on cubes, cylinders, and beams to investigate the ...
The results are encouraging as it meets all specifications for its use such as in concrete, stowing sand, or wet mix macadam. ... Bhd for providing details of river sand practices in Malaysia. 1. ... environmental accountability has to be developed. Research on developing artificial sand from recycled bottles is another area that the authors ...
The replacement of natural sand by artificial sand is feasible for 60% to 80%. It is seen from above studies there is a variation in strength enhancement of concrete made from artificial sand to encourage the use of locally available artificial sand promotes to study to check it suitable optimum percentage replacement in the concrete.
This research work focused on the viability and valuation of recycled concrete sand aggregates (RCSAs) in the preparation of mortars. An alternative recycling process was proposed to improve the physical and mechanical properties of RCSAs-based mortars and thus promote the efficient use of demolition concrete waste in construction.
In this research, the mechanical and durability properties of concrete with coral sand as a fine aggregate in partial replacement of river sand (30%, 40% and 50% by sand mass) is studied. The physical, chemical and mineralogical properties of the collected samples were studied. The hardened concrete specimens were subjected to compression and ...
The concrete strength generally decreased as the desert sand substitution ratio increased, however, for the C50 and C60 strength grades, concrete with 20% desert sand had minor positive effects.
Most studies related to artificial sand in civil engineering have focused on the comparison of strength property between natural sand-based concrete and artificial sand-based concrete [1][2][3] [4 ...
Artificial sand and mixed sand are mainly used in building construction, municipal construction, transportation, and other projects whose concrete strength grade is below C60. When meeting the corresponding technical requirements, they can also be used for projects such as … See more

A huge quantity of concrete is consumed by global construction industry. In India, the conventional concrete is mostly produced by using …
The contents of fine artificial sand were changed as follows: 0% (Type 1), 5% (Type 2), 10% (Type 3), 15% (Type 4) and 20% total of artificial sand (Type 5). The total of coarse artificial sand ...
From the above result following conclusion are drawn. It is observed that replacement of natural sand with 60 % to 80% by artificial sand is found feasible. For M20 grade of concrete the percentage increase in compressive strength and tensile strength by 29.44% and 5.39 % respectively by replacing natural sand.
Meanwhile, for concrete made with 50 and 75% of coarse aggregate replaced with polystyrene gives an average of compressive strength of 9.2 and 4.7 N/mm 2 respectively. The result showed a huge difference in terms of compressive strength when the samples were compared to the control (M20 mix concrete).
Y. Guney et al. [4] investigate the potential reuse of waste foundry sand in high-strength concrete production. The natural fine sand is replaced with foundry sand (5, 10 and 15% by mass) to achieve a high-strength concrete of about 65 MPa, gaining that value at 56 days of curing with 10% waste foundry sand replacement: this is the optimum …
