Optimizing Concrete Strength and Sustainability: Quarry Dust and Copper Slag Powder Additives
Abstract: This research investigates the potential of quarry dust and copper slag powder additives to enhance the strength and performance of concrete. Compressive strength tests were conducted on mortar cubes at 7 and 28 days to evaluate the effects of these additives. The results indicate significant improvements in compressive strength over time, with Mix A4 achieving a remarkable 43.42% increase in strength at 28 days. Other mixes also demonstrated substantial strength …
