Results revealed that as the laterite percentage increased, compressive, flexural, and split tensile strengths decreased. While 0% and 10% laterite replacements met the required …
Venkatesa, et al [6] studied on concrete with Steel Slag (SS) as replacement of sand and walnut shell as coarse aggregate replacement. It was reported that 20% increase in strength was observed with SS as 40% by weight of sand. Jawad, et al [7] studied on concrete with WFS as 40%-50% replacement to sand resulted in very …
Manufacturing of Laterite Bricks as an Environmental Friendly Alternative Row Material According to above table 1 it can be seen that price for quarry dust is higher than laterite soil. Also the required amount of cement and price for cement is higher in the brick which made from laterite. The lowest price for cement is shown in the brick which
Batching was by weight, mix ratio of 1:2:4 (cement: laterite/sand: granite)was used with a water/cement ratio of 0.3. sized concrete cubes were castand cured for 56 days, then weighed and crushed.
The poor grading and significant differences in the mechanical properties of laterite granules in West Africa limit the application of this typical material in road structures. In this paper, the poorly graded laterite granule was blended with fine sand and stabilized with cement to improve the strength of laterite granules. An innovative …
The high demand for housing has increased the use of conventional building material which ... used for manufacturing of laterite bricks gives compressive strength is 10.53 N/mm2 which is maximum. When 10% of cement and laterite soil is used then it gives compressive strength 3.4 N/mm2 which is minimum. 4] METHODOLOGY ...
The chemical analysis of laterite soil samples sourced from literature, Table 1 showed that the major compounds present in the laterite soil are SiO 2, Al 2 O 3, and Fe 2 O 3.These compounds were predominantly more than 70% of total composition of oxide compounds, and in some cases, it reached about 92±5% (Jan et al., 2007; Marto et al., …
In the last three decades, the gigantic demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly concrete with reduced environmental footprints has resulted in the development of low carbon …
