MIX DESIGN

7.1 Concrete Mix Design as per IS: 10262 2009

The mix design for the concrete of grade M25 was carried out as per IS:
10262 2009. The design is mainly to achieve the target mean strength. The
detailed mix design of concrete is as follows

7. CONCLUSION

33
 The primary objective of study is to evaluate the action of recycled fly
ash brick waste as partially replace by coarse aggregate at different volume. In
Phase-I report of fine aggregate, course aggregate, cement, FABCA, were carried
out. Mix proportion of concrete 1:1.46:2.94:0.50. For further work concrete with
replace of coarse aggregate by Waste fly ash brick in various ratio of 10% & 20%.
The compressive strength test will be conducted to investigate hardened properties
of concrete in phase-II. scope for further work gives suggestion for further
researches that can be carried out corresponding to the present area of study

A detailed study of literature review had done by referring many journals.

Collected the materials regarding the availability conditions.
Evaluated the properties of all the materials of concrete by testing all the
materials such as FABCA,fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and cement.
Designing of the concrete mix.
The Study of methodology.
Specimen preparation, testing of specimens and comparing the results are to
be conducted in phase II.
