Efficient Use of Aluminum Industry Waste (Red Mud) for High Quality Self Compacting Concrete

Now- a- days in developing countries like India Cost reduction in the building is the primary objective of the researchers. This can achieved by making some low cost martial like concrete by utilization of waste and by products particularly from mining and mineral industries. Hence this research work aims to find out the effect of addition of red mud, which is a waste product from the aluminium industries, on the properties of self compacting concrete containing admixtures. In this way the waste of aluminium industry will be reused in a productive way for increasing the strength of concrete and make it economically for people. This work includes experimentation and combinations of admixtures. The different percentages of red mud used in experimentation are 1%, 2%, & 3%.Wich provides different strength amount to the concrete. The percentage increase in the compressive strength at 2% addition of red mud is 9.11% which is maximum then it goes on decreasing.
