Abstract

Waste marble powder is an inert material obtained from the sawing, shaping and polishing of marble. Those marble dusts are hazardous to the health and atmosphere if it is not disposed properly. The main objective of the paper is to use those powders in construction work as a supplementary material and to observe the performance in concrete. Presently, in this paper, physical, chemical, mechanical properties such as workability, compressive strength, tensile strength and durability such as water absorption by immersion, carbonation properties of concrete with marble dust are studied. The review indicates that in concrete industry marble dust can be used as replacement of sand and it generally improves the mechanical properties of concrete with lower water–cement ratio. In hydration process, marble dust does not play any role but it shows filler effect in concrete and also it shows better performance. Hence, marble dust can be used as an appropriate fine aggregate material for sustainable concrete.
