Key Points

The aim is to determine the effectiveness of using superplasticisers and brick chips in concrete for cost reduction.
Evaluated different mixes of concrete incorporating superplasticisers and varying proportions of brick chips as a replacement for crushed stone.
Conducted strength tests to analyze the mechanical properties of the modified concrete against standard concrete.
Concrete with 20% brick chip replacement showed similar compressive strength (30 MPa, p<0.05) compared to conventional concrete.
Cost savings of 15% were observed when using modified concrete mixes, enhancing economic feasibility.

Implication

Evaluates cost-effective concrete using superplasticisers and brick chips, suggesting sustainable building options.
