“…The specimen is then set on a flat surface, a steel plate with a 150mm diameter is set on top of the specimen, and the load at which the specimen fractures is noted as the concrete's compressive strength. Until the specimen is split in half, a compressive load of 0.7 N/mm2/min is given to the steel plate [16,17,18]. The concrete's split tensile strength is measured as the load at which the specimen splits [19].…”

In the present era, concrete is one of the most commonly used construction materials worldwide. Consequently, the demand for natural river sand is increasing. Since the mining of natural sand has already been outlawed by the government in many regions, now it is essential to look into sustainable materials to control natural sand extraction. Hence, manufactured sand (MS) has been shown in numerous studies to be a more practical and environmentally responsible alternative to river sand (RS), which is normally used in the production of concrete. At the same time, the cement industry produces tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, affecting atmospheric conditions. Now, it’s time to look into a suitable replacement material for cement. To investigate the feasibility of using manufactured sand & silica fume in place of river sand and cement under normal climatic conditions fresh, mechanical and durability properties were conducted in the laboratory. Twelve samples of M30 grade cubes and cylinders at desired M sand percentages of 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 & 0% and 5% variation of silica fume with cement are included in this study as a comparison to the control mix. After 28 days of water curing, a random variation in the properties of concrete was observed in the samples. In this experimental study, SF represents Silica Fume, MS represents manufactured sand, RS represents river sand, FA represents Fine aggregates and CA represents Coarse aggregates.

“…Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is able to flow and consolidate due to the effect of gravity and fill dense reinforcement efficiently, without any external vibration [1][2], and has high mortar content and uses fines and additives to maintain its cohesion. Several studies are reported about SCC with marble and granite residues [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11], SCC containing rubber [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] and SCC with steel fiber [21][22][23][24][25][26]. However, studies concatenating rubber, marble and granite residues (MGR) with hooked-end steel fibers are scarce.…”

The aim of this investigation is focused on the effects of hooked-end steel fibers on both fresh and hardened properties of modified self-compacting concretes (SCC). For this purpose, the steel fibers are associated with other residues contents (i.e. marble, granite and rubber). This concatenated materials contents constitutes a novelty since no investigations are reported. It is found that the increase of rubber content, a better ability to absorb energy is observed. This indicates that a good alternative of structural material is provided. Fresh properties are evaluated by using flow, T500 time, V-funnel, J-ring methods. The mechanical behavior is evaluated in terms of compressive strength, tensile strength, static and dynamic modulus of elasticity, and damping ratio. Experimental results of the water absorption, porosity and density are also attained. It is also found that a SCC mixture containing steel fiber, marble/granite residue and rubber content is a potential mixture to be considered when in SCC designing associated with improved damping ratio. Although the rubber content decreases the mechanical behavior and slump flow, the concatenated utilization of MGR and steel fiber contents provide a slight improve in the damping result. An environmental benefit can also be associated since the cement consumption is decreased with marble additions.
