Abstract
The present scenario gives a lot of review that is made on artificial aggregates from various waste materials. In increasing industrial sector, a separate scheme is to be adopted for waste disposal. The industrial byproducts is not only the pollution caused but is also an environmental issue in the form of pollution and shortage of land to fill these materials. There are lot of researches that are under taken by different bodies to make some useful by products from the industrial waste for different applications. On the other side, shortage of natural aggregates in the growing infrastructure industry, creates problem of depleting natural resources which builds the need for artificial aggregates. In this aspect the identification and preparation of artificial aggregates for various applications leads to conserves environment from pollution and prevents natural resource from depletion, thereby giving way to sustainable development (1,2). This paper deals with identifying a suitable coarse aggregate for the concrete structure which is a challenging task to cut down the cost of construction in the field of civil engineering. In order to achieve economy and for effective utilization some of the waste materials such as paper pulp, steel slag, rice husk, e-beads, fly ash, etc., are suggested (3,4). The artificial aggregate is made out of waste materials such as paper pulp and fly ash in addition to clay and made as light weight course aggregate of size 20mm. The artificial aggregates thus prepared are heated in muffle furnace to about 1000 degree partially, added with natural coarse aggregates and made as concrete using self-compacting and self-curing materials.
