Granite Dust is the Possible Component of the Dry Construction Mixtures

Abstract

This paper is devoted to research of possibility of utilization of granite dust. It is shownthat the granite dust from the crushing screenings of "Shartashskiy stone-crushed stone quarry" can be recommended as a filler for the production of dry building mixes for flooring. With the introduction of dust in the amount of 20 % by weight of cement it is possible to obtain the mortar of the class not less B12.5.


Keywords: Granite dust, dust-like waste, Portland cement, polymer, modification, compressive strength, flexural strength, sand, dry mixture, mortar, composition
