To Utilize Waste Casting Sand as a Partial Replacement of River Sand in Construction

Concrete is a common material used in building things. River sand is a part of making concrete.. We are using too much river sand and its hurting the environment. This is causing problems like damage to river beds, erosion and animals losing their homes. To solve this problem we looked into using Waste Casting Sand (WCS) as a substitute for some of the river sand in concrete. WCS is a waste product from factories. Our main goal was to see if concrete made with WCS can be as strong as concrete. We tested mixes of concrete to compare how well they work. We want to make sure the concrete is strong. We also want to be kind to the environment. This research shows that using WCS can be a solution. It helps reduce waste and use natural resources. This supports building practices that’re good for the planet. It also helps create an economy in the construction industry. We are trying to find a balance between making concrete and reducing harm to the environment. Using WCS in concrete can help achieve this balance. The construction industry can benefit from this eco- solution by reusing industrial waste and reducing its impact on the environment. The use of WCS in supports sustainable construction practices and encourages the development of a circular economy. This research is an attempt to find an eco- solution for the construction industry. Concrete made with WCS can perform well as conventional concrete. Waste Casting Sand can be used as a replacement for river sand, in concrete.
