―Analysis Of The Strength And Durability Of The Concrete With Partially Replaced By The Ceramic Slurry Waste Powder‖

Ceramic waste is most commonly produce from ceramic industry, this waste is in the form of pest and hard form, pest waste is known as the filter waste or slurry waste, which is produced at the end of polishing and finishing of ceramic tiles. The paper discuss that ceramic slurry waste powder is replaced by cement in concrete. Concrete grade M25 was made by replacing by 0% to 30% of Ordinary Portland 53 grade cement with ceramic slurry waste powder passing through 90 microns. Compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption and sorptivity are determined with water cement ratio 0.48. The result shows core compressive strength achieved up to 30% replacement of ceramic waste powder without affecting the characteristic strength of M25 and no significant change in flexural strength. Water absorption and sorptivity increased compare to conventional concrete and after 10% interval it’s increased very less.
