Abstract River sand is an essential component used as a fine aggregate in mortar and concrete. Due to unrestrained exploitation, river sand resources are gradually being exhausted. This requires alternative solutions. This study deals with the properties of cement mortar containing different levels of manufactured sand (MS) based on quartzite, used to replace river sand. The river sand was replaced at 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% with MS (by weight or volume). The mechanical properties, transfer properties, and microstructure were examined and compared to a control group to study the impact of the replacement level. The More >
