| General note | ABSTRACT<br/>The self-weight of the structures consist major portion of their overall weight. The use<br/>Of lightweight concrete not only reduces the weight but also results in the reduction in<br/>the sections of the structural elements resulting in the economy. The concrete without<br/>fine aggregates is termed as 'no-fines concrete', which is one of the types of the light<br/> weight concrete family. Normally no-fines concrete (NFC) is produced with the coarse<br/> aggregate of uniform gradation. This experimental study is focused to use the coarse <br/>aggregate of different gradation in no-fines concrete. The effect of the coarse aggregate<br/> gradation is studied in terms of compressive strength and tensile strength of NFC. A fixed<br/> cement- to-aggregate proportion 1:6 is adopted during this study. in all 10 gradations of <br/>the caosrse aggregates ranging between pacific maximum and minmum size are used<br/> i.e, 7mm-4.75mm, 10mm-4.75mm, 10mm-7mm, 13mm- 4.75mm, 13mm-7mm, 13mm-10mm,<br/> 20mm-4.75mm, 20mm-7mm, 20mm-10mm, 20mm-13mm. The water-cement ratio <br/>is maintained at fixed value 0.40 throughout the study. The cube and cylinder specimens<br/> of standard sizes are cast to determine compressive strength and tensile strength <br/>(cylinder splitting) respectively. Entire the specimens are cured in water up to the age of<br/> testing (28 days). The results of the study reveal the substantial effect of the gradation<br/> of coarse aggregates on strength properties (compressive and tensile strength) of no-fines <br/>concrete.<br/> |
