Abstract
Silica fume is used as a replacement of cement in concrete and fine aggregate are partially replaced with marble powder. Silica fume is a byproduct of producing silicon mental is generated by industries as waste material. Silica Fume is a great potential for the utilization in concrete as replacement as cement. The silica fume is replaced by 15% proportion. The Fine aggregate are replaced by marble powder 15%, 30%, 45%. The use of Silica fume in the construction would result in the reduction of cost of the material. Also, the usage of Silica Fume results in reduction of emission of harmful gases such as carbon dioxide, carbon mono oxide, etc. M25 grade of concrete is produced by partially replaced cement, fine aggregate with silica fume and marble powder respectively. Cubes and cylinders were casted and their compressive strength and split tensile were evaluated at 7, 14 and 28 days by replacing 15% of silica fume and 15%, 30%, 45% of marble powder respectively. This type of replaced concrete is an alternative to reduce the weight of concrete and to reduce the cost of concrete.
