Abstract

The rapid growth in development of construction industry is leading to an increase in utilization of lime waste water due to which there has been a much scarcity in availability for construction. This overuse should be balanced by introducing certain abundantly available other natural materials which can be replaced to the waste water. The waste water seems to have same certain properties and can be used as a constituent of normal water. This can reduce the water and various ecological imbalances. The fast growth in industrialization has resulted in tones and tones of by product or waste material, which can be fly ash, crushed stone dust, silica fume, and granulated blast furnace slag, steel slag etc. By using this waste water strength will enhance the properties of concrete in fresh and hydrated states. The granite waste water is usually dumped from the sump and attracts major environmental concern. In the present work a series of tests were carried out to make comparative studies of various mechanical properties of concrete mixes prepared by using waste water .If some of the materials are found suitable in concrete making, cost of construction can be cut down .so in present study, an attempt has been made to assess the suitability waste water in concrete mixing. Cubes and beams were cast and tested for compressive strength and flexural strength. Waste water used for this project after 7 days and 28 days. The waste water is replaced in percentages of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.
