Abstract

The supplanting of fine aggregate was encapsulated in this study to reduce the usage of non-renewable materials in concrete. Initially, nano–micro cementitious material (NMCM) such as metakaolin (MK) and nano silica (NS) was incorporated with Portland cement to make referral concrete (RC). An alternate for virgin river sand is crushed gravel sand (Csand) which is mostly in use. The objective of this research is to effectively supplant Csand by means of ferrochrome slag (FS). Precisely, the optimum level of MK (10%) and NS (1%) was used in place of cement. In addition, the FS was incorporated in place of Csand by 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 100%. A significant rise in the compressive strength of about 3.18% was achieved by replacing FS4 at 28 days than RC. Ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) and water permeability (WP) results of FS4 were better than those of RC. F4 was 12.5% higher in the RCPT result than for the RC specimen. The SEM image of FS4 indicates the densest calcium silicate hydrate (CSH(H)) and rigidified interfacial transition zone (ITZ). TG/DTG predicts that the FS4 mix has a minimal Portlandite (CH-3.92%) compared to RC. The strength, durability, microstructure and TG results of the FS4 matrix imply that FS can be substituted for fine aggregate.
