Red Mud is a waste material generated by the Bayer process widely used to produce alumina from bauxite throughout the world. The aim of this research work is to investigate the possibility of replacing the portland cement by red mud because of storing issues, the red mud waste negatively affects the environment. To solve this problem, portland cement was replaced up to 40 % red mud by weight of cement. And, evaluates its compressive of red mud concrete. The results show that compressive strength decreases with increase red mud content, it is concluded that optimum percentage of the replacement of cement by weight is found to be 20%. By this percentage replacement we can have strength is equal to the strength of controlled concrete mix.
