Abstract: Recently, technologies are developing in the field of building materials, specifically for manufacturing of concrete and those concretes are mixes with a combination of different materials. Fine aggregate, Cement,coarse aggregate and water are the major constitutes of concrete that are achieved naturally. Thus we can replace different new elements instead of natural sources like M Sand, Metakaolinfly ash, etc.In this research, coarse aggregates are partially replaced with 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% of Kadappa stones and the concrete mixes are formed based on the Indian Standard specifications.Fresh and stiff concrete attributes are estimated by workability test, compressive strength and split tensile test with a set water-cement ratio 0.5. We can obtain 16.70% of extra compressive strength in M20 Concrete by using Kadappa stones.
