The analysis has indicated that the use of quarry dust instead of sand is more effective, since it is possible to include a higher percentage of quarry dust in the dosage (80% of the weight of fine aggregate) maintaining the required compressive strength in 28 days, higher than 50 N/mm2 (50 Mpa) for W/C of .30 while maintaining the shape and ...

1Department of Earth Resources Engineering, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka *Corresponding author – thilinii@uom.lk Abstract Aggregate quarry products have long been essential to the construction sector. These aggregate products are produced by blasting the in-situ rock at quarries and subjecting it to primary and secondary crushing.





Mortar cube (MC) studies were performed to assess the feasibility of QD and USS as fine aggregate in concrete. There are no specified codes for performing the feasibility studies on QD and USS binding properties, hence the tests were conducted as per IS 650:1981 [29] and IS 10080:1982 [30].The IS 650:1981 code suggests the determination of cement strength by …

Quarry dust was acquired from a local construction material supplier. Quarry dust is a readily available construction material in Sri Lanka, since it has been used to replace sand in construction. For the mix design, quarry dust that passed through a 2.36-mm sieve was selected by ASTM D2487 standards. Mix Design and Production Process







As shown in Figure 1, in Sri Lanka, 87% of the house units are constructed with cement blocks or fired clay bricks as wall materials. Figure 1 The material used for house units in Sri Lanka 92 Natural sand or river sand is a major aggregate used for cement sand blocks, and it is contributed to 70% to 80% weight.
