ABSTRACT
This research paper presents the experimental study to find out strength parameter
of sugarcane with partial replacement of cement and marble waste as partially and
fully replacement with coarse aggregates. Addition of sugarcane is 5%,10%,15%,20%
in cement and coarse aggregates contain 50% & 100% of marble. To find out the
properties for specimens of compressive strength test, rebound hammer test and
ultrasonic pulse velocity test (UPV), flexural strength test and water absorption tests
are performed. Results indicate that the maximum strength and durability getting
observed when the sugarcane replacement was 5% with 100% replacement of marble.
Key words: Stone Dust, Steel fibre, Destructive test , Non-Destructive test.

1. INTRODUCTION
Sugarcane is the common crop in INDIA that releases a large amount of waste every year.
The sugarcane bagasse is dry pulpy fibrous residue that which left after burning of sugarcane
waste. Bagasse is generated around 250g to 280g by burning of one kg sugarcane waste. The
production of sugarcane in INDIA approximately 300 million tons every year. The sugar mill
factories burn sugarcane waste on large amount every day as a fuel in boilers for heat which
releases a large amount of sugarcane bagasse. This waste is to acquire more land and totally
useless. So that sugarcane waste can be used in the concrete mixture for utilization of waste
material. And the sugarcane ash is very cheap and easily available.
