Abstract

This study highlights the effectiveness of the response surface method in predicting the properties of hardened concrete containing spent foundry sand and manufactured-sand. In current research, different mix proportions are prepared with spent foundry sand and manufactured-sand as partial replacements for fine aggregate. The workability, strength, and durability studies are conducted on all concrete mixes. The test results confirm that the inclusion of 20% of spent foundry sand is optimum for enhancing the strength and durability. Also, the inclusion of 20% of spent foundry sand in manufactured-sand concrete also possesses optimum results in strength and durability. Further, the response surface method has been employed to develop a model for compressive strength prediction. The R-squared and residual sum of squares of error for the compressive strength model were 0.9863 and 2.345, which confirms the goodness of the fit.
