Abstract—The solid waste coming out from the industries will help in the conservation of natural resources. The
marble powder as a waste material coming out from the marble industries by cutting and sawing process and can be
used as the partial replacement of fine aggregates in concrete pavements. Marble powder is present abundantly and
degrades the land on which it is laid. This paper reports the evaluation on the properties of marble dust. The marble
dust used as fine aggregate in replacement of natural sand, as the sand is expensive because of the excessive cost of
transportation from natural sources. Marble powder also has cementitious properties and may help in binding the
aggregates. The marble powder can improve various properties of concrete viz; compressive strength, flexural
strength and reduces the water cement ratio. Marble powder is used at different percentages like 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%
& 50% and are tested after 7, 14, and 28 days. The results are then compared with conventional concrete.
Keywords— Solid waste, fine aggregates, compressive & flexural strength, conventional concrete.
I. INTRODUCTION
In developing countries economical construction material plays very important role in making the country`s
infrastructure economical. Waste material like marble dust play very important role for making its economical. India is
producing about 10% of world production of marble. Marble is a metamorphic rock resulting from the transformation of
pure limestone. A large quantity of marble dust is produced by cutting or sawing process of marble.
The marble powder which is taken from the BHAGWATI MARBLES VKI ROAD, JAIPUR and is free of cost and they
takes the marble rocks from district Makrana, Rajpur, Rajnagar and Jaipur Rajasthan. The name of the marble is given on
the basis of village name. The amount of marble dust produced at Bhagwati Marbles 40 – 45 tonnes per month. The
marble dust which is produced by the cutting of marble stones, during the cutting process the water is added which acts as
the lubricant for the sawing blades (FIG 1). The water is then drained off from the cutting spot and the water along with
the marble powder in the form of slurry is accumulated in rectangular type basin in which the sedimentation of marble
powder occurs and the water which gets evaporated. The marble powder heaps are formed. (Fig 2).

C. SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF MARBLE POWDER
This test is done as per IS: 2386 part 3 and is used to determine the density of fine aggregate.
Take the sample of sand 500gms and place it in the oven for 24 hours.
Weight of empty pycnometer=M1= 624grams
Weight of pycnometer + Marble powder = M2=624+200=824grams.
Weight of pycnometer + water + Marble powder= M3 = 1648grams.
Weight of water + pycnometer= M4= 1520grams
Specific gravity = M2 – M1
M2−M1 (M3−M4)
= 824-624/(824-624)(1648-1520)
=2.77
D. WORKABILITY OF CONCRETE
This test is done as per IS-1199-1959. This test is used to determine the consistency of fresh concrete. Indirectly

E. COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE
This test is done as per IS: 516 1959[19]. This test gives the idea about the strength of the concrete. The strength of
the concrete depends upon the mix design of the concrete. In this research M20 M means mix and 20 means strength of
20N/mm2 at 28 days design mix has been used. Compressive strength of concrete depends upon the many factors such as
water-cement ratio, cement strength, quality of concrete material, and quality control during production of concrete etc.4
Compressive strength is carried out on cubes having size 15cm x 15cm x 15cm as per IS: 516 1959

The above graph (2) indicates the compressive strength of concrete having the partial replacement of fine aggregate with
marble powder at different proportions. When the percentage of marble powder is increased the compressive strength gets
increased up to certain limits (40%) as shown above.
The above graph shows the compressive strength of the concrete at 7 days. It can be clearly seen that there is an increase
in compressive strength, when there is increase in marble powder. Up to 40% of marble powder when increased,
compressive strength also increase but when the addition of marble powder the compressive strength decreases.
Similarly compressive strength at 14 and 28 days gets increased up to 40% replacement of fine aggregate with marble
powder. From the above graphs it is clearly defined as the marble powder up to 40% can be used as the fine aggregate and
give the good strength to the concrete.
F. Flexural strength of concrete
This test is done as per IS: 516-1959[12]. This test is used to determine the flexural strength of concrete usually
done when the road slab having weak sub-grade support and is subjected to vehicle loads or there is change in volume due
to temperature.
APPARATUS REQUIRED
Beam mould: the size of the beam mould depends upon the size of the aggregate i,e beam mould
size 15*15*70 cm when the size of the aggregate is less than 38mm but more than 20mm and beam
mould size 10*10*50 cm when the aggregate size is less than 19 mm

The bar chart shows the flexural strength of concrete in three distinct days that is at 7 days, 14 days, and 28 day and at
different percentages 0f marble powder i.e. 0%, 10%,20%,30%,40%, and 50%.
This shows that at 0% of marble the flexural strength after 7 days of curing is 2.17N/mm2, after 14 days it is 2.95N/mm2
and after 28 days of cuing the flexural strength is 3.16N/mm2. When the percentage of the marble powder is increased the
flexural strength gets increased. Up to 40% of marble, the concrete beam gives good flexural strength. But when the
percentage of marble powder is further increased the flexural strength gets decreased that is when fine aggregates are
replaced by 40% of marble powder the flexural strength is 3.78N/mm2 and gets decreased when marble powder is used
beyond 40% and having flexural strength at 28 days of curing of 3.20N/mm2.
IV. CONCLUSIONS
The uniformity in the gradation of particles of natural sand and marble powder, the marble powder can be used as
the replacement of fine aggregates (natural sand).
The compressive strength of the concrete gets increased as the percentage of marble powder is increased; the
compressive strength of conventional concrete is 24N/mm2 after 28 days of curing. When fine aggregates are
partially replaced by marble powder at different proportions that is 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% the
compressive strength gets increased up to 40%. Further increase in the marble powder leads to decrease in
strength. For 40% replacement of fine aggregate the compressive strength is 28.66N/mm2.
The flexural strength of the concrete also increases when the fine aggregate is partially replaced by marble
powder. The flexural strength of conventional concrete is 3.16N/mm2 after 28 days, when fine aggregates are
replaced up to 40% the strength increase. Further increase in marble powder will affect the flexural strength.
With the use of marble powder there is reduction in the land degradation, due to this there is reduction in the
environmental pollution.
