Interestingly, research by De Brito et al. [16] and Shi et al. [17] suggests that the workability of RAC can be enhanced by incorporating manufactured sand, which possesses superior and stable properties. This could potentially address issues such as low strength and high water-absorption in RAC. Hudson [18] found that stone powder in the concrete mix can …

6. Basic Considerations Cost • The cost of concrete is made up of • Material Cost • Equipment Cost • Labour Cost • The variation in the cost of materials arises from the fact that cement is several times costlier than aggregates. So it is natural in mix design to aim at as lean a mix as possible. Therefore, all possible steps should be taken to reduce the cement content of a …
Concrete mix design is the process of finding the right proportions of cement, sand and aggregates for concrete to achieve target strength.
With the decreasing extraction of natural sand (NS), the manufactured sand (MS), as a waste material, has been gradually developed as a raw material for concrete [2], [3]. The blending of multiple mineral admixtures together will improve the overall process performance, mechanical properties, and durability of the material, which is also known ...
Concrete is widely used as a construction and building material to its relatively satisfactory balance of availability, plasticity, mechanical properties and cost [1, 2].Currently, most concrete engineers design concrete mixes by first applying empirical formulas to establish rough correlations among different raw materials and then conducting trial tests to obtain appropriate …

This concrete mix design calculator has limits for the targeted compressive strength of 6000 PSI for non-air-entrained concrete and 5000 PSI for air-entrained concrete. This does not mean that you can use these limits in the first field which is the specified compressive strength, unless the standard deviation is set to zero.
An investigation was, therefore, conducted to determine the suitability of using manufactured sand from crushed gneisses as partial replacement for natural sand for concrete production. In the experiment natural sand was replaced with manufactured sand of the same grading as the natural sand, while keeping all other variables constant.
The partial replacement or alternate of silica fume and its effects on concrete properties using M-35 concrete mix has been studied in this paper. The most important parameter accessed in M-35 concrete mix with partial replacement by silica fume with varying 0%, 5%, 9%, 12% and 15% by weight of cement.

Manufactured sand (MS) has different characteristics to natural sand (NS), particularly in terms of morphology and size distribution. The flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with MS presents a critical challenge when using MS in engineering practice. In the present study, granite manufactured sand (GMS) was used as alternatives for NS.
