Industrialization and urbanization are the two world wide phenomena. Though these are the necessity of the society and are mostly inevitable, the major ill effect of these global processes is the production of large quantities of industrial wastes and the problems related with their safe management and disposal. Red Mud is one such problem produced during the process for alumina production. This creates environmental problems, if not properly organized and stored. Efforts are in process to utilize it for constructive purpose.This project is one such work, in which red mud is tried, if it can be used in production of concrete. Now-a-days, concrete is the main construction material in most of the works. Reuse of materials which hamper the environmental conditions, will have dual advantage. One, is that the material will be consumed and second one is that economy can be obtained by utilizing the so called waste materials.Red mud posse’s pozzolonic properties, by virtue of which it can be used as partial replacement of sand. In addition, partial replacement of cement with lime also proved economical. In the earlier literature, about 5% of replacement of cement with lime yielded optimum condition. In this project, properties of cement concrete with different proportions of red mud, with and without addition of 5% of lime are studied and analyzed.It is observed that addition of 15% red mud independently or with addition of lime, as partial replacement, proved to be a effective and economical.
