Abstract

Research was conducted to investigate the Mechanical properties of concrete which containing copper slag
replaced with sand (fine aggregate) and results have been presented in this paper. Two different types of Concrete Grade
(M35 & M40) were used with different proportions of copper slag replacement (0 and 40%) in the concrete. Mechanical/
Strength properties such as Compressive Strength, Flexural Strength, UPV(Ultra sonic pulse velocity) for both mixes of
concrete. Test results shows that the strength properties of concrete has improved having copper slag as a partial
replacement of sand (up to 40%) in concrete.
