اقرأ أكثرComparatively, the ASTM's allowable silt and clay content in sand used for concrete production is 10% by weight. 15 samples met this limit, implying a failure rate of 44.4% of the tested sand samples by ASTM's standard. From Figure 11, the maximum silt and clay content registered from 27 samples was a significant 42%.
اقرأ أكثرAgain the best results were obtained for an optimal replacement of 30% of river sand by I-sand. The hardened concrete property for river sand, I-sand as well as 30% replacement proportion, after 28 days of curing, is as given in Table 10. The results suggest that the 30% replacement gives the optimal hardened properties as well.
