Abstract

Oyster shell is light weighted and its strength characteristic is similar to sand. So we produced mortar test piece using grounded oyster shell powder under 0.5mm, which is a standard of fine aggregate, and reviewed strength properties according to water cement ratio. In our test, we used two kinds of oyster shell particles: below 0.6mm and 1.2~2.5mm. Water cement ratio is varied 40% to 100% and we found that flexural strength and compressive strength are decreased in higher water cement ratio.
