Design of M30, M35 and M40 grade concrete mix using M-sand with flyash

Various tests on concrete with manufactured sand (M-Sand) and fly ash

Client : 

M/s. Joynest, Mumbai

Scope of work:

  • Design of concrete mix for M30, M35 and M40 grade concrete using M-sand (100% replacement for conventional sand) 20% fly ash as cement replacement material.
  • Physical properties of coarse, fine aggregate (M-sand), cement and flyash.
  • Study the workability and flow retention for 3hrs.
  • Evaluation of compressive strength at 3, 7, 28, and 56 days
  • Evaluation of flexural and split tensile strength at 28 days
  • Evaluation of water absorption and rapid chloride permeability test at 28 days
