Abstract

The objective of this revision is to evaluate the option of developing various industrial surplus as a partial replacement of cement and sand in mortar. The strength properties of mortars for combining Stone Dust (SD) for River Sand (RS) and several levels of Granite Powder (GP) as replacements for cement and 5% of Aluminium Hydroxide (AH) as Extract are deliberated in the paper. This study involves the replacement levels of the GP to cement 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% with 5% of AH and the fully replacement level of SD to sand for 1:3 mix proportion. This paper grants a detailed study on compressive strength, abrasion resistance and water absorption at 3, 7 and 28 days of curing. Test result show that the maximum compressive strength of cement mortar increased at 25% replacement of GP with 5% of AH and 100% replacement of SD can be through as associated to all other additional levels. The obtained outcomes of this study designate that replacing cement with GP, sand with SD replacing and 5% of AH affect the mechanical properties of mortar. The apparent compressive strength and density is considerably decreased other hand abrasion resistance and water absorption percentage is slightly increase while the porosity rises.
