Abstract

Nowadays it is very important to make the concrete economical. Therefore the present work has initiated to make the concrete economical by replacing the natural sand by crushed sand in the concrete. From our study it is concluded that different Crushed sand gives different results for compressive strength depending on different quarries and from study of different research paper at 40% to 50% replacement of crushed sand the maximum compressive strength is obtained. The maximum tensile strength of concrete is obtain at 60% and 70% replacement of natural sand with Crushed sand. The concrete with crushed sand performed better than concrete with natural sand as the property of crush sand is better than that of natural sand.
