Abstract – Concrete is a mixture of cement, fine aggregate,
starting from 1% and increasing the percentage till a maximum value of compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength is obtained.
coarse aggregate with proper percentage of water. There are different grades of concrete which can be formed by varying the ratio of all the ingredients which are present in concrete. It has been found that river sand is decreasing day by day on a regular basis and there is quite drastic increase in the amount of waste which are coming out from several industries. There is also a type of waste, produced in tannery industries which are responsible for polluting rivers and putting some bad effect on our environment. So, if these wastes can be utilized in concrete by replacing fine aggregate then there could be decrease in the amount of waste and can also decrease the use of river sand which is decreasing from wide use in the construction industries. It is estimated that the tannery waste which are processed, takes about 65 years to start degrading and takes about 100 years for complete degradation of one ton of waste[1]. On the other hand, SBR Latex is a having good cementing properties as it is used for providing better workability and for bonding old concrete with new concrete.
A. Tannery Shredded Waste Tannery waste was brought from from Park Tanning Industries, 94-A, Wajidpur, Jajmau, Kanpur (U.P.)-208010. As the tannery is replaced for fine aggregate, the waste that is obtained should be sieved and used for the work. The tannery waste obtained from the industry is sieved with 2.36 mm sieve and the passed materials are taken for the replacement of fine aggregate.

INTRODUCTION
Figure 1: Tannery Shredded Waste
Tannery Shredded Waste are obtained from tannery industries situated mainly in Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Punjab, West Bengal and many other states of India. These industries are producing about 49 million ton/year and about 22% are from Uttar Pradesh and that too from the city Kanpur.
B. SBR Latex Latex was in the form of liquid and was of Berger Home Shield Company which is a well-known company used for manufacture of paints. Latex Plus used was made up of polymer of styrene and butadiene mainly used for repair and water proofing works.
SBR Latex is a copolymer made up of Styrene and Butadiene in which styrene is 75% and butadiene is 25%. Latex is used as an additional in the concrete for improving the workability and is used for making new bond between old concrete and new concrete. The effect of latex on concrete with the partial replacement of fine aggregate with tannery shredded waste will increase the workability and decrease the permeability as SBR latex is having good adhesion property which can be used in concrete construction and also quite much helpful in repair works[2]. The research consists of partially replacing fine aggregate from concrete with tannery shredded waste and fixing the percentage of SBR Latex as 10% by the weight of cement. The tannery waste will be varied in different percentage
