Higher Ultimate Strength & Cost Effitient Concrete Using Phospho-Gypsum

For a developing country concrete is the most usable and important construction material. There are various studies available that shows that recycled or the waste materials are quite helpful in making the concrete. Materials like Rubber, plastic waste, fiber etc. when replaced in the design mix it imparts their own property in the concrete as well. The motive of the replacement is also important, if we want to reduce the cost, we have to replace the cement which is quite costly as compared to aggregate & sand. The industrial waste may have some chemical properties as well as compared to glass or plastic. Although it is not the cheapest replacement but it helps in saving the cost by replacing the cement component in the design mix. It also Improve the properties of hard concrete & fresh concrete by reducing the W/c ratio or the consistency in the concrete. Gujarat is one the leading state in India for the manufacturing of chemicals & fertilizers and the industrial waste of such industries may harm the environment in different forms. So the study is based on the recycling and the reuse of the industrial waste in the concrete production.
