ABSTRACT
In the present investigation workability, strength and durability of
concrete with manufactured sand as replacement to natural sand in
proportions of 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 100% is studied. The experiments
were conducted on M20 and M30 concrete grade with 450 specimens. Slump
cone, compaction factor and vee-bee time tests were conducted to determine
workability. Results showed that as replacement of natural sand by
manufactured sand is increased, there is a decrease in the workability.
Compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength tests were
conducted to determine strength of concrete. The 60% replacement showed an
increase in strength of about 20% and other replacements to an order of
minimum 0.93% in both the grades. The durability study is conducted by
treating specimens for 30 days with 5% concentrated Hydro Chloric Acid and
the concrete mix with 60% replacement has given good durable properties.
Key words: Manufactured Sand, Natural Sand, Durability.

1. INTRODUCTION
Concrete is made with natural sand as fine aggregate. Scarcity of natural sand due to
depletion of natural resources and restrictions due to environmental considerations
made concrete manufacturers to look for suitable alternative fine aggregate. One such
alternative is “Manufactured Sand”. Manufactured sand is the quarry dust or the
crushed granite stone that is sieved and made to suite particle size of natural sand so
as to be used as fine aggregate. It is also called as M-sand.
There is an increase in the use of manufactured sand in the field of concrete
construction due to the lack and scarcity of natural sand. So there is a need to
determine the workability, strength and durability properties of concrete using
manufactured sand as fine aggregate. The study on the strength characteristics of
concrete made with high fine material a comparison between natural and crushed
sands is studied by B.P Hudson. Ilangovanaet al studied the feasibility of the usage of
Manufactured sand as hundred percent substitute for natural sand in concrete.
Nagabhushana and Sharadabai studied the properties of mortar and concrete in which
crushed rock powder (CRP) is used as a partial and full replacement for natural sand.
Rajendra Prasad D.S. et al his research was conducted to study the effect of crushed
rock powder (CRP) as fine aggregate and partial replacement of cement with
admixtures subjected to different water, carbon dioxide and air curing periods. Raman
et al in his paper reports the experimental study undertaken to investigate the
influence of partial replacement of sand with quarry dust, and cement with fly ash on
the concrete compressive strength development. Saeed Ahmad investigated the effects
of crushed and natural sand on the properties of fresh and hardened concrete. The
hardened and durable properties of concrete using quarry dust were investigated by
SivaKumar and prakash. Veerareddy has made an attempt to assess the suitability of
stone dust and ceramic scrap in concrete making. Venumalagavelli has investigated
the effect of partial replacement of cement with Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag
and sand with Robos and (crusher dust).
Durability of concrete is an important aspect when we are using a new material in
concrete production. When hydrochloric acid and hydrated cement phases react, the
chemicals formed are some soluble and insoluble salts. Soluble salts, mostly with
calcium, are subsequently leached out, whereas insoluble salts along with amorphous
hydrogels, remain in the corroded layer of concrete. Besides dissolution, the
interaction between hydrogels may also result in the formation of compounds like
silicates of iron, aluminum and calcium (Fe-Si, Al-Si, Ca-Al-Si) complexes which
appear to be stable in pH range above 3.5.
Ca(OH)2 + 2HCl CaCl2 + 2H2O
The reaction essentially causes leaching of Ca (OH)2 from the set cement. After
leaching out of Ca (OH)2, C-S-H and ettringite start to decompose, with release of
Ca2+
to counteract the loss in Ca(OH)2 and the set cement starts to disintegrate
accelerating the dissolution.
Ca6Al2(SO4)3(OH)12.26H2O 3Ca2+
+2[Al(OH)4]- +4OH
- +26H2O
3Ca2+
+2[Al(OH)4]- +4OH
- +12HCL 3CaCl2 + 2ALCL3 + 12H2O
There are few indications through experiments about the formation of Friedel’s
salt, C3A.CaCl2.10H2O, by the action of CaCl2, formed due to reaction of HCL with
CH and C3A. Hydrochloric acid attack is a typical acidic corrosion which can be
characterized by the formation of layer structure.

All the materials used were locally available in and around Visakhapatnam, India.
Manufactured sand is transported in wet condition to avoid grading. Table-1 shows
the properties of cement which are within the allowable limits. From Table-2, it can
be stated that the properties of coarse aggregate satisfy the standards. Table-3 and
Table-4 gives the properties of natural river sand and manufactured sand.From these
results we can infer that the natural sand and manufactured sand confirms to same
zone but having different fineness modulus, high for manufactured sand and may
yield more strength. The water absorption of manufactured sand is high due to more
fine particles and may lead to low workable mix. The manufactured sand is angular in
shape and natural sand is rounded.
4. MIX DESIGN
The mix design is done according to IS: 10262-2009. The proportions adopted for M20
grade is 1:1.85:4.02 with a w/c of 0.5 and cement content of 330kgs. The proportions
adopted for M30 grade is 1:1.51:3.06 with a w/c of 0.45 and cement content of 402kgs.
A total of five mixes for each grade is adopted i.e., M20 with 0% M-sand, M20 with
20% M-sand, M20 with 40% M-sand, M20 with 60% M-sand, M20 with 100% M-sand,
for M30 grade M30 with 0% M-sand, M30 with 20% M-sand, M30 with 40% M-sand,
M30 with 60% M-sand, M30 with 100% M-sand were used.
5. EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION
The workability of green concrete is determined by slump cone, compaction factor
and vee-bee time tests, as these tests are suitable for low workable mixes also. While
casting the specimens only the workability is measured, if any mix does not have
required slump of 40-80mm then the mix would be made again with plasticizer. The
tests were conducted on both M20 and M30 grade concrete. In accordance with
workability the percentage of admixture required for low workable mixes to make
their slump reach 40-80mm is also determined. Table 5 and 6 determines the
workability properties of different proportions of natural sand replaced by
manufactures sand.

6. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
The slump, compaction factor is decreasing and vee-bee time is increasing as the
percentage of replacement of natural sand by manufactured sandis increasing. The
percentage of admixture required for making the mixes to a slump of 40mm to 80mm
is also increasing as the percentage of replacement of natural sand by manufactured
sandis increasing.
The Compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strengths has showed
increase in strength when the natural sand is replaced by manufactured sand. The 28
day compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength of M20 and
M30for all the mixes were shown in the graphs below.
Figure 5 compressive strength of M20 and M30 grade concrete with replacements
From figure-5 we can infer that the increase in compressive strength for M20grade
concrete is 0%, 7.3%, 10.17%, 20%, 14.42% and M30 grade is 0%, 0.67%, 3.66%,
10.45%, 4.09% respectively for 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 100% replacement of
natural sand with manufactured sand.

Figure 6 Split tensile strength of M20 and M30 grade concrete with replacements
From figure-6 we can infer that the increase in split tensile strength for M20grade
concrete is 0%, 6.14%, 7.16%, 25.04%, 18.56% and M30 grade is 0%, 2.35%, 9.42%,
15.82%, 15.48% respectively for 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 100% replacement of
natural sand with manufactured sand.
Figure 7 Flexural strength of M20 and M30 grade concrete with replacements
From figure-7 we can infer that the increase in split tensile strength for M20grade
concrete is 0%, 2.94%, 6.22%, 18.11%, 10.89% and M30 grade is 0%, 0.93%, 6.39%,
15.80%, 12.36% respectively for 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 100% replacement of
natural sand with manufactured sand.
From the results it is clearly evident that 60% replacement of natural sand by
manufactured sand has given good strength compared to all other replacements. The
increase in strength is high in every M20grade mix because the mix is aggregate
dominant where as M30grade is mortar dominant.
The Compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strengths were
decreasing when the acid treated specimens were tested. The strength of acid treated
specimens is compared with 28 day strengths of M20 and M30grade mixes for all the
mixes were shown in the graphs below.

Study On Properties of Concrete with Manufactured Sand as Replacement To Natural Sand
http://www.iaeme.com/IJCIET/index.asp 41 editor@iaeme.com
From figure-13 we can infer that the decrease in compressive strength for
M20grade concrete is 21.4%, 21.2%, 22.39%, 14.59%, 15.32% respectively for 0%,
20%, 40%, 60% and 100% replacement of natural sand with manufactured sand.
From the results it is evident that60% replacement of manufactured sand with
natural sand has given good resistance to acid treatment for all the mixes of M30
grade.
7. CONCLUSIONS
Results were analyzed to derive useful conclusions regarding the workability,
strength, durability, characteristics of concrete with replacement of natural sand with
manufactured sand in different proportions for M20 and M30 grades. The following
conclusions may be drawn from the study
The manufactured sand is a best alternative for natural sand in terms of strength and
durability.
Manufactured sand yields mixes with low work ability as the particle shape is angular
and it can be compensated by adding admixtures to the mix.
The 60% replacement of natural sand by manufactured sand yielded good
compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength for M20 and M30 grade
concrete compared to other proportions of mixes.
The 60% replacement of natural sand by manufactured sand has shown good
resistance to acid treatment in compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural
strength for M20 and M30 grade concrete compared to other proportions of mixes.
