The main objective of this research is to investigate the possibility of utilizing waste marble dust (MD) in cement and concrete production. In present study experimental investigation conducted on optimum marble dust replacement with sand. After cutting and sawing marbles, in large amount of marble slurry produce. This marble slurry disposed to open land area, it make land pollution and harmful to land. In road construction it can use as substitute of fine aggregate, it has good binding property and gives enough strength to concrete and due to this it is suitable to bear heavy load on rigid pavement. In present study compressive strength of concrete at 28 days was checked, and this concrete is prepared by mixing cement, aggregates, water and sand. In further study sand is replaced by marble dust, and then concrete was prepared. The replacement ratios which have been studied were 0.0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% by weight. Water - cement ratio kept 0.55. Concrete made with marble dust as sand replacement achieved better performance compared to normal concrete. Experiment such as specific gravity test of sand and marble dust by pycnometer method, moisture content of marble dust and sand by oven drying method, specific gravity test of cement by Le-Chatlier flask method, normal consistency of cement, and initial setting time of cement, were performed to determine the physical property of concrete. On fresh concrete slump test was preformed to check workability of concrete and after then compressive strength was checked. Thus marble dust is appropriate substitute of fine aggregates in concrete mix for construction.
