Abstract:
Concrete is a chief product in all the construction deeds. Concrete contains cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and water. Several researchers has investigated to find best alternative for the natural resources which are used in concrete. Foundry sand is one of them. In this article natural sand is replaced with cast iron foundry sand. Foundry sand is nothing but the by-product of metal casting foundry industry. In the present work, experiments were performed to calculate the flexural and torsional strength at 7, 28 and 56 days of concrete by replacing fine aggregate with waste cast iron foundry sand. The replacement is done in various percentages from 10%, 20% and 30% by weight of fine aggregate. The ultimate flexural strength on 30 % replacement of fine aggregate is observed to be maximum for cast iron foundry sand. The torsional strength is increased on inclusion of waste cast iron foundry sand. It is possible to use waste foundry sand in construction up to certain limits under certain condition to increase both flexural and torsional strength of the concrete.
Keywords:
Waste foundry sand, flexural strength etc.
