Concrete is one of the most vital and common materials used in the construction field. The current area of research in the concrete was introducing waste foundry sand (WFS) in the ordinary concrete. Waste foundry sand is the by-product of metal casting industries which causes environmental problems because of its improper disposal. An experimental investigation was carried out on concrete containing waste foundry sand (WFS) in the range of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% by weight for M-40 grade concrete. Concrete was produced, tested and compared with conventional concrete in plastic state as well as in harden state for workability, compressive strength & split tensile strength. These tests were carried out on standard cube, cylinder for 7 , 28 and 91 days to determine the properties of concrete. Key words: Industrial Waste, Waste Foundry Sand (WFS), Eco friendly, Compressive Strength, Split Tensile Strength and Workability. In the present work an attempt has been made to replace the coarse aggregate by natural sand and waste foundry sand at 10% intervals starting from 0% up to 60% separately and also in place of natural coarse aggregate demolished aggregate is used. In experimental work four sets of specimens were casted having combinations of natural coarse aggregate and natural sand, natural coarse aggregate and waste foundry sand, demolished aggregate and natural sand, demolished aggregate and waste foundry sand. In all the mixes 2% of waste plastic is added by volume fraction method.
