The building sector is progressively utilizing sustainable materials to mitigate its environmental impact. This study examines the feasibility of utilizing the sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) and Eco Sand as the partial substitutes for cement and sand in the making of sustainable concrete. Eco Sand, an industrial by-product, and SCBA, sourced from agricultural waste, were integrated into concrete compositions in diverse quantities. Specifically, by weight ten percentage of cement is replaced with SCBA, while conventional fine aggregates at 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% were replaced with Eco Sand. The research designed for M35 grade concrete and assessed for fresh and hardened properties which mainly influence the critical strength criteria, such as workability, flexural strength, split tensile strength and compressive strength. The results show that substituting 15% of Eco Sand and 10% of SCBA yielded excellent compressive and flexural strength, showcasing the efficacy of these replaced materials in sustainable concrete manufacturing and reducing the conventional natural materials.

摘要

The building sector is progressively utilizing sustainable materials to mitigate its environmental impact. This study examines the feasibility of utilizing the sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) and Eco Sand as the partial substitutes for cement and sand in the making of sustainable concrete. Eco Sand, an industrial by-product, and SCBA, sourced from agricultural waste, were integrated into concrete compositions in diverse quantities. Specifically, by weight ten percentage of cement is replaced with SCBA, while conventional fine aggregates at 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% were replaced with Eco Sand. The research designed for M35 grade concrete and assessed for fresh and hardened properties which mainly influence the critical strength criteria, such as workability, flexural strength, split tensile strength and compressive strength. The results show that substituting 15% of Eco Sand and 10% of SCBA yielded excellent compressive and flexural strength, showcasing the efficacy of these replaced materials in sustainable concrete manufacturing and reducing the conventional natural materials. The utilization of these waste by-product alternatives resulted in reduced production costs, facilitating the advancement of green construction materials and endorsing sustainable business practices.
