The use of stone dust as a partial or complete replacement for natural sand in concrete has been studied in recent years as a sustainable and economical solution. Stone dust is a waste material generated from stone crushing units, and its disposal causes environmental concerns. This study aims to investigate the potential of using stone dust as a replacement for natural sand in concrete. Various mix designs were prepared with different proportions of stone dust and natural sand. The compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength of the concrete specimens were tested after 7, 14, and 28 days of curing. The results showed that stone dust can be used as a complete replacement for natural sand without significantly affecting the strength of the concrete. However, it was found that the workability of the concrete decreased with an increase in the proportion of stone dust. Therefore, it is recommended to use stone dust in a limited proportion to maintain the required workability of concrete
