This study aimed to evaluation Performance of no-fine concrete containing local clay pot waste powder as partial replacement of cement. Twenty-seven (27) cubes of 150 ×150 ×150mm were cast, cured and crushed at 3, 7and 28days respectively, and also cylinder size of 95 ×200mm were cast, cured and crushed at 3, 7and 28days respectively, The compressive strength at 28days was 13.14N/MM2 for no-fine concrete (control), 25.92N/MM2for 10% replacement, 11.76N/mm2 for 20% replacement. the split tensile strength at 28days were 1.89N/MM2 for no-fine concrete (control), 1.33N/MM2 for 10% replacement and 1.87N/MM2 for 20% replacement. From the above discussions, it can be concluded that the addition of local clay pot waste powder in mix up to 10% increases the compressive strength of no-fine concrete. It is therefore recommended that 10% of local clay pot waste powder as partial replacement of cement is suitable for the production of no-fine concrete. ...Preview Download Preview +Other Building Technology project topics and materials you might be interested in»Causes of project abandonment in building construction industry and remedial measures»Causes of construction project failures and abandonments in Nigeria»Safety procedures and accident prevention methods in construction sites»Control of Noise Pollution and Sound Insulation in Buildings ( A Case Study of a Broadcasting Studio)»The implication and benefit of the use of softwares in building project construction (case study of selected software and firm)»Maintenance and servicing problems of specialist works in building»The effect of quality control in the building construction process (a case study of Afikpo, Ebonyi state)»A study of prospects and problems of timber as external material in building production in hot climate region»The impact of budgeting and budgetary control in construction project delivery in Nigeria»Challenges of low-cost housing delivery in Nigeria (Case study of Imo state)»Use of formwork design and construction of high building»Project planning and programming as tools for effective project delivery»The use of building survey for maintenance of building in Nigeria ( A case study of one storey building at Owerri, Imo state)»Design and construction of office complex for school of environmental design technology»Effects of labour management in building construction site - case study of Owerri, Imo state
