  • Abstract:
  • Concrete is the most utilized development material transversely the world. Normally accessible stream sand is the generally utilized as a fine total in numerous nations. The greater necessity for concrete has caused this normal to river sand asset to get debilitates. The consumption of stream sand in abundance has shown exceptionally clear natural effects, on the opposite side, creation of extremely immense measure of quarry dust is being delivered during the method involved with quarrying and its prompting numerous ecological issues. It is important to do the examination on distinguishing the plausibility of utilizing elective waste materials like quarry dust and bamboo. In this paper the usage of bamboo and quarry dust on M30 concrete was studied. The level of bamboo added by 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 and 15%, as substitution of coarse total utilized in concrete. Bamboo substitution in volume shows great outcomes on compressive and split tensile strength with control concrete. Essentially, the level of quarry dust by weight was added in 10, 20, 30 and 40% individually the fine total substitution in concrete. From this test results it is seen that supplanting coarse total with upto 12.5% of bamboo acceptable outcome when contrasted and regular cement for 7 and 28 days. Subsequently the utilization of quarry dust and bamboo as trade for fine and coarse in concrete is decreasing the ecological squanders which represent a troublesome issue in its removal.
