ABSTRACT
Construction has become technology oriented with new and better materials and techniques being developed. In this quest, better materials and techniques in construction have gained a strong foothold and found wide applications. However, considerable research is still to be done in the field of building materials to reduce building costs further and improved structural performance. Concrete is one of the versatile construction materials widely used by the industry. Continuous research efforts have established concrete as a versatile material. Conventionally concrete is a mix of cement, fine and coarse aggregates. The use of manufactured sand in concrete is gainingmomentum these days. The present experimental investigations have been made on concrete using manufactured sand as fine aggregate and observed the effects of crushedmanufactured sand on strength properties of concrete.
