Utilization of Red Soil and Lime Powder by partially replacing Fine Aggregate in Conventional Concrete. Ameer Mohammed Khan1, Abdullah Mohammed Mahboob Ibrahim2, Md Abed Ali3 1,2,3Student,
Department of Civil Engineering, ISL Engineering College, Telangana, India. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------LIITERATURE REVIEW Abstract - Exploratory research is carried out to study the performance of concrete by substituting the aggregate with locally obtainable red soil. It includes a particular testing to identify the quality enhancement of cementitious materials when red dirt is put to it.
Mihai Iliescu and Ioan Ratiu: developed a novel design methodology for stabilizing roadway sub-grade utilizing geo-grid reinforcement. In their investigation, they discovered that geogrids may boost the effectiveness of the sub-grade soil. Researchers conducted thorough static and dynamic plate bearing testes under diverse conditions depending on the outcome of trail and the member hypothesis, they created design graphics for multipurpose geo-grid in muddy and impermanent road.
The substantial sand replacement by red soil has been done according to the precise mix percentage to get high strength in concrete. In earlier research of the journal key concern arising that growth of red soil is to lowered the durability of concrete and it absorb greater quantity of water. So, in this project, lime powder is also used in the concrete to prevent the water absorption and permeability. Under this project, it is preferable to analysis the durability of M20 Concrete and the quantity of red soil is to be put in following proportion such as 15 percent, 30 percent & 45 percent. Material properties such like compressive strength, split tensile strength, compressive and flexural testing was carried out for red soil blended concrete and standard concrete to distinguish the strength and impermeability in it. The tests are performed after 7 days, 14 days & 28 days of curing.
Rakesh Kumar and P. K. Jain: in their research of ground enhancement methodologies demonstrated that the creation of granular piles in expanding soil enhances the ultimate load capability of the soil. They subsequently made an effort to research the enhancement of load carriage of granular pile either with or without geo-grid coring via laboratory simulated tests and determined that the load bearing capability of granular pile rises by enclosing the pile with geo-grid. Pradeep Singh and K.S. Gill: conducted done scientific investigation to find the ideal site of delivering geo-grid reinforcing in sub-grade soil by performing CBR test and unconfined compressive test. He discovered that by supplying geo-grid strengthening from top offer substantial enhancement in CBR values and tension strain behavior of sub-grade soil.
1. INTRODUCTION Nowadays there is a shortage of soil its very difficult to buy sand in inexpensive method. Overcoming of this challenge is extremely crucial to investigate the alternative materials. In order to meet the need of the fine aggregates, some alternate substance must be identified. Hence, this project it is intended to undertake exploratory activity by preparing concrete blocks having replacement material of fine aggregate by accessible natural red dirt. Sand is a major material used mostly for fabrication of cement mortars and plays a most essential function in concrete mixture. In general, consumption of natural sand is high, owing to the significant usage of concrete and mortar. Hence the need of natural sand is very strong in emerging nations to support the rapid infrastructure expansion. So, we utilized red dirt in this project.
Karthik G et.al (2020): Conducted research on Modification of Structural Parameters of Red soil by the application of Wood Ash and GGBS. They found that MDD increases while OMC decreases by Wood Ash content at 20 percent and GGBS content at 10 percent. Dhamotharan R et.al (2018): They had done an experiment on study of Black Cotton Soil Bricks using Fly Ash & Crushers Waste. They determined that there will be rise in Compressive Strength and reduction in Water Absorptivity after introducing Fly Ash and Crusher Waste at varied percentages.
Red soil availability is in every sort of regions and it has unlimited supplies throughout all locations which may be effectively used for mixing of cement in building construction.
M. Sai Nandan et.al (2020): They have performed an investigation on Normalization of Red Soil By utilizing Coconut Coir Fiber and Rice Husk Ash. They adopted Coconut Coir Fiber and Rice Husk Ash as an addition and they reached the Optimum values by combining 15 percent of Rice Husk Ash and Coconut Coir Fiber.
Red soil is generated owing to erosion of igneous and metamorphic rocks. It is very impermeable once it is mixed with cement and for its size and its coloration is in red due to the existence of iron in it.
