Title

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF OPC (43 GRADE) CEMENT BY EGG SHELL POWDER FOR M-35 CONCRETE GRADE

Abstract

Eggshell is produced at large amounts by egg processing industries and considered as useless. Egg shell waste have serious hazards material because the protein rich membrane which adheres to the shell attracts rats & other vermin. An eggshell is made of calcium carbonate, which is also the main ingredient in some antacids. Each medium sized egg shell has about 750-800 gms of calcium. The shell makes up 9-12 percent of an egg’s total weight, & contains pores that allow oxygen in & carbon dioxide and moisture out. According to previous observations, An egg shell takes minimum six years to completely decompose & it is not good for the soil either. Of its total composition, 95% is Calcium & others are protein and other organic material. To minimize the problem from egg shells. It is better to use it in some other ways. It has been found from various previous researches that egg shell can be used in construction industry in concrete. It was observed in earlier studies that replacement of egg shell powder with cement may be possible upto certain extent. In the present study, grinded Egg shell powder passing through 90 microns is used as cement replacement with various replacement levels as 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% & 5% to evaluate the influence of Egg shells on the properties of cement. Various tests on Cement were carried out i.e. Consistency test, Setting time test, Soundness test, Compressive strength test were carried out. Egg shell powder is further used as cement replacement in concrete as 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% & 5% replacement levels for M-35 concrete grade, for which various tests were carried out i.e. Slump test to evaluate workability of different mixes, Compressive strength test, Flexural test at 7 days & 28 days.

Key Words

Egg shell powder, Workability, Compressive strength, Flexural strength
