Employment of waste sand to compose fibre reinforced cement composites

ABSTRACT: This lecture describes the research on concrete based on
waste sand obtained from hydrograding of all-in-aggregate in the
Central Pomerania in Poland. Concrete was modified by replacing from 0
to 25% of cement for the silica fume and adding from 0 to 2 % of steel
fibres. The received results of the research on the fresh concrete
mixtures and properties of hardened composite are presented on charts.
The author noted a considerable improvement in compression strength
and watertightness of the examined concrete mixes.
