STUDY ON PERFORMANCE OF CONCRETE BY USING ALCCOFINE AS A PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF CEMENT Sujana Palamani1,K.Bala Gopi Krishna2 M.Tech Student1& Assistant Professor2, Department Civil of Engineering, Vignan's Foundation for Science - Technology & Research, Vadlamudi, Guntur, India. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***---------------------------------------------------------------------
Abstract - This paper presents the study of effect of
workability is maintained up to 70% replacement .Alcofine is an excellent water redundant that may be used to enhance the parameters governing strength and other aspects of concrete. Alcofine is used as a cement substitute primarily for two conditions: to stabilise the supply of cement and to enhance the characteristics of concrete throughout its life cycle. Alcofine combined with fly ash use hence improves the mechanical qualities of concrete.
performance of concrete using supplementary cementious material i.e.Alccofine with M-40 grade of IS cube specimen We partially replaced cement by weight of binder with alccofine replacement with percentages of 3% ,6%,9% and 12%. Also, we've investigated strength in compression ,split lastingness and flexural capability for all various cases. The compressive strength of alccofine concrete is increases at all stages fresh and hardend due to the presence of cementious material that is alccofine Comprasion is carried between the properties of the conventional and alccofine concrete.
2.REVIEW OF LITERATURE The Counto Microfine Products Ltd. Ambuja Cement Ltd. and Alcon Group Goa are partners in the CMPPL group. Goa is home to one of the largest dedicated manufacturing facilities for microfine materials in the world. In Kolkata, India, Alcofine was first introduced. Two cutting-edge products in the realm of concrete, Alccofine 1203 and Alccofine 1101, have been introduced by Ambuja Cement Company(ALC).
Key Words:
Alccofine, strength, supplementary cementious material.
1. INTRODUCTION One of the most often utilised materials in the construction sector is concrete. Concrete is poured into any desired shape. The concrete is utilised in numerous ways in depends on a structure's ability to support a load. Steel reinforcement is introduced into concrete to support axial and flexural loads. Although the simple cement concrete has weak tension properties, it exhibits good compressive strength and little crack resistance. Because of incorrect reinforcement alignment, the steel in reinforced concrete structures corrodes, leading to structural failure from insufficient cover.
3. METHODOLOGY The following methodology was used to investigate the behavior of Alccofine in workability and mechanical properties of concrete.M50 grade concrete mix design was determined in accordance with IS:10262-2019 for the inquiry at hand. Alccofine was used in place of cement in some places. Up to 3, 6, 9, and 12% of the cement's weight was added as accofine. Concrete's mechanical and fresh characteristics were examined for the impact of alccofine. All aspects of the mix design employed a water/cement ratio of 0.45. At the conclusion of this investigation, a comparison between the qualities of conventional and alccofine was made.
In addition, The compressive strength can be increased by up to by adding various compounds that may be by products. Compared to typical concrete, there is a certain dosage that can help improve compressive strength and resistance to chemical attacks to a certain amount. Concrete is insufficient due to a lack of materials, particularly cements. There are many substitutes for cement, including fly ash, bottom ash, GGBS, and Metaoklin. Via partial and complete cement replacement in traditional concrete, these materials are tested in the lab for strength and other qualities. When compared to cement, the replacement exhibits various beneficial characteristics.
4. EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM An experimental programme has been designed to deliver adequate data for determining the Alccofine-based concrete's quality. The behaviour of alccofine in the workability and mechanical qualities of the Alccofine-based concrete has been studied.
4.1 Materials Used
A controlled granulation process yields the substance acccofine. It is a slag with a high glass concentration and extremely small particle size. Although there is a decrease in water consumption, concrete still performs well and
