Abstract:
Concrete is the most regularly utilized material in the construction industry. The worldwide generation of concrete has generously increased since 1990.Production of concrete mix entails a lot of natural contamination since it incorporates the outflow of CO2 gas. As the industry is shifting towards environmental friendly practices, different supplementary cementitious materials like silicon oxide exhaust, fly ash, slag, rice husk and metakaolin are being used. These materials help in developing High Strength Concrete (HSC) with advanced workability, durability, strength and diminished penetrability. Metakaolin(MK) is obtained from the clay mineral kaolinite in an anhydrous calcined form.
In this investigation, the substitution of concrete has been done in three distinct sorts of cases. The first case considers 0 %, 10 % with Metakaolin (MK) independently. The second case considers 0%, 10 % with Marble Dust (MD) independently. In the third case a combination of both MK and MD is used as 10% each. Compressive, tensile and flexural strength for concrete prepared in the three cases have been estimated and compared with conventional grade M30 concrete. In addition to the above compressive test, a durability analysis with Rapid Chloride Migration Test (RCMT) has been done to estimate the effects of acid and alkaline attacks on concrete.Results demonstrate that there is an increase in the compressive and tensile strength in the case of MK independently whereas the other cases show reduction. In the case of flexural strength, all the three cases show an improvement from the conventional concrete. Durability tests reveal that addition of MK and MD in conventional concrete yields a very less rate of penetration of chloride ions, thus, giving rise to a conclusion that durability has improved.
Keywords —Metakaolin, marble dust, strength, durability, compressive strength and split tensile strength.

Introduction-The demand for Portland concrete has been increasing significantly in developing nations. This has led to hike in the cement costs thereby increasing the construction cost significantly. To reduce the cement costs and consumption of cement it has been suggested to substitute a certain part of cement with alternatives without affecting its strength and durability. Among the various alternatives available metakaolin and marble dust have been used in this study.
Kaolinite is a clay mineral which in its anhydrous calcined state forms metakaolin. The main mineral involved in the manufacture of porcelain is kaolinite. Another example of a material rich in kaolinite is china clay. Metakaolin can be obtained from various sources like high purity kaolinite deposits, paper sludge waste and oil sand tailings. The chemical composition of metakaolin is Al2O3.2SiO2.2H2O. Table 1 shows the chemical composition of metakaolin percentage wise whereas Table 2 shows the physical properties of metakaolin.

Marble Dust is another extraneous waste which is created in surplus. It has been estimated that quarrying has led to the creation of millions of tons of marble dust. Since this marble dust is in its pure and unadulterated form it has become a preferred material to be used in cement as an alternative to enhance its properties and decrease the costs. Discharging these tons and tons of marble dust to nature can cause a significant ecological issue in the future. India being the third top most exporter of marble creates a lot of marble dust. So this can be effectively utilized in cement to not only decrease costs without affecting its strength, but also help our environment.

Abid Nadeem et al (2008) examined the chloride porousness of high quality concrete and concrete samples containing fluctuating extents of Metakaolin (MK) and Fly ash debris at increased temperatures.
Seven concrete and three concretesamples were inspected in the wake of presenting each sample to 200, 400, six hundred and 800°C. In concrete, the percentage of MK had been 5, 10 and 20% and for Fly ash remains the percentages were 20, 40 and 60%. In concrete, the measurement phase of Metakaolin and Fly ash debris was 20%. Every single concrete sample tested had a base compressive strength of 85 MPa. At ordinary temperatures, cement and concrete samples had low chloride particle penetrability. At standard temperature, Metakaolin mix had brought down chloride penetrability than Fly ash and Portland concrete mix. At normal temperatures, concrete samples have been more chloride porous.Samples at 200°C and 400°C, mortar turned out to be more chloride porous than concrete, however the proportion of mortar to concrete, chloride penetrability turned out to be substantially less than that at normal temperature.Hemant Chauhan et al (2011)made an endeavor to utilize squanders like initiated Fly ash debris, Iron Oxide and Metakaolin as supplementary cementitious materials in various extents. Utilizing these mineral admixtures with OPC bond, 5 various types of solid combos had been readied and same were utilized to find compressive strength of concrete cube samples at 3,7, 14, 28 and 56 days. At the point when OPC progressed toward becoming supplanted as much as 42% with metakaolin, it offers vitality up to 40.67 N/mm2 .At a water cement proportion of 0.40 and 0.55, it surrendered vitality to 25.47 N/mm2 at 56th day. They said that it transformed into practical to make the concrete ease by methods for 42% supplanting of concrete with extraordinary conceivable outcomes of mineral admixtures like fly powder (30%), Metakaolin (10%) and press oxide (2%).
