Abstract

In this project we are introducing a light weight block and concrete in multi storied building. In case of the multi storied building partition wall construction is one of the major item which is required for the partition work and to create various internal units of block and concrete are more weight, so there is need to find the replacement of waste materials and adding of waste materials to reduce the weight. The conventional block walls and concrete are moreover lot of dead weight is imposed on the structure with respect to gravity. A light weight material is needed so as to reduce the dead load on the structure. So we can contribute the Mix Proportion is divided into two case. Case I: Replacement of Cement (75%) With Fly ash (25%) and fine aggregate (75%) with quarry dust (25%) and adding 20% of waste material like thermocol (10%) and coconut Husk (10%). Case II similarly the proportion is changed with 50% Replacement and Adding 40% Waste Materials. The best of the mix proportion of project is selected in the result of testing of specimen of these mix proportion better than other in strength and weight. The purpose of adding 20 % and 40 % coconut husk and thermocol is to reduce the weight of the block and concrete. coconut husk is also useful in creep in between concrete and thermocol. The waste materials are used to minimize the volume of conventional material of concrete and also reduce the weight of components on multistory building. it is ecofriendly. It is economic and maintenance is inexpensive.
