China clay industrial waste in concrete [PDF]

Journal of the Croatian Association of Civil Engineers, 2018
This paper deals with the performance of China Clay industrial Waste (CCW) as partial replacement of fine aggregate in concrete. The performance of CCW used in concrete has been ascertained by comparing its compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength, acid resistance & heat resistance with conventional concrete.
