1. INTRODUCTION Concrete
compressive strength is the number of loads per unit area that broke concrete
test objects when exposed to specific pressing force produced by the press
machine. Compared to the other characteristics, concrete compressive strength
is the most important characteristic of concrete quality. The compressive
strength of concrete is determined by the ratio setting among cement, coarse
aggregate, fine aggregate, and water. Of the many
conducted concrete tests, the compressive strength test is the most important
because it describes the characteristics of concrete. Many studies
conducted to get the best quality and compressive strength of concrete. One of
the methods is by modifying the basic mixture of concrete. A basic mixture of
concrete consists of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, and water. A
basic mixture of concrete can be modified with alternative materials that is
fine aggregate, or by modifying the type of sand as an alternative material. Hadi (2020) conducted a study on the effect of adding granite waste on concrete compressive strength, the result shows that normal concrete compressive strength is 26.09 Mpa. By adding 8%, 10%, and 12% of granite waste, the compressive strength for each addition is 24.58 Mpa, 22.69 Mpa, and 21.28 Mpa. The addition of granite waste in normal concrete turns out to lessen the concrete compressive strength. The higher the addition percentage the lower the compressive strength of concrete. This study concluded that normal concrete compressive strength is better than concrete. A study on the effect of using unpolished granite waste as partial coarse aggregate substitution towards K-175 Concrete compressive strength was conducted by Luthful (2023), he used various mixture proportions to find proportion variants that produce the best compressive strength. The variants created are 50% pure material and 50% waste material. The use of 80% waste material and 20% pure material in K-175 concrete achieved the planned quality that meets the concrete mix job. Zarkasih (2023) conducted a study on granite waste and
zeolite utilization as coarse aggregate substitution and zeolite as cement
substitution in Self Compacting Concrete. The study concluded that using
granite waste as coarse aggregate substitution and zeolite as cement
substitution improves the quality of concrete if applied with the proper
percentage between those two materials. Wahyu Hudha et al. (2019) conducted a study on High early strength
concrete innovation by utilization of granite waste, clamshell, and fly ash.
The study concluded that innovation concrete is more environmentally friendly
because it uses waste materials that reduce the waste that disrupt
environmental sustainability. Dominggus et al. (2019) conducted a study on the effect of adding granite tile powder waste on the characteristics of normal concrete. The result shows that concrete with 5% granite powder produces the optimum result of 34.96 MPa compressive strength in 28 days, 2.77 MPa tensile strength, and 35875 MPa elasticity modulus. Arruna Rodhi
et al. (2021) in the study of the industrial waste
concrete for sustainable development using American Concrete Institute (ACI)
planning method and EFNARC standard created three (3) concrete cylinders with
the size of 15cm x 30cm and one (1) cube with the size of 15cm x 15cm by adding
iron powder as much as 10% of the total fine aggregate, steel slag, and granite
as much as 50% of the total coarse aggregate, marble powder as much as 10% of
the total cement, and Sika Viscocrete 1003 as much as 1,5% were used in Civil
Engineering laboratory of Muhammadiyah Surakarta University with f’cr 45 MPa.
The study is expected to become an innovation of concrete that is more
sustainable, environmentally friendly, efficient, and economical than
conventional concrete. This study used
a destructive method to test the compressive strength of concrete that mixed
with coarse aggregate addition material from granite waste that was combined
with natural aggregate and then compared with normal concrete. The sand that is
used are the Serayu River and Mount Merapi Sand. The problem of this study is
formulated as follows : 1)
What
is the effect of granite waste as coarse aggregate substitution towards
concrete compressive strength? 2)
How
does the use of Mount Merapi sand compare to the Serayu River sand for normal
concrete and one of concrete mixture types? Granite waste
is the remainder or fragments from granite mining. By using granite waste, the
researchers aimed to utilize mining waste products properly. Granite was chosen
because it was rarely used and left piled up and scattered around the mining
area. 2. METHODS AND MATERIALS In conducting a
study of concrete compressive strength observation on the mixture composition
towards concrete mixture materials, the materials that being used are : 1) Coarse aggregate from granite waste According to
SNI-03-2847-2002, coarse aggregate is gravel formed from the natural
disintegration of rock or crushed stone produced by the stone-crushing industry
and has a grain size between 5mm and 40mm. For the gravels to be used, the
following conditions must be fulfilled : · Permanent non-porous hard grain, which means it is not broken by weather influences such as sunlight and rain. · Not contain more than 1% of mud, if the mud exceeds 1% then it should be washed before use. · Not contain substances that can damage rock such as substances that are reactive to alkali. · Flat-grain coarse aggregate can only be used if the amount is not more than 20% of the total weight. According to Tjokrodimuljo (1996), aggregate characteristics that most
influence concrete strength are surface roughness and maximum size. Aggregate
with a rough surface will form a good bond between the cement paste and the
aggregate. Aggregate with bigger size has a more narrow surface area so that
the bond with cement paste is reduced. Coarse aggregate holds an important role
in producing good concrete compressive strength. Wet stones such as mountain
stones and river stones are coarse aggregates that are commonly used in
concrete mixtures. Granite is
commonly used as a material to improve the aesthetic aspect of a building.
Granite itself has better strength than wet stone. The granite industry that
processes granite chunks to become granite slabs usually produces quite a lot
of waste in the form of granite fragments. Therefore, these granite fragments
will be utilized as concrete mixture material. In Baseh
Village, Kedungbanteng District of Banyumas Regency, Central Java there is a
granite processing industry. Granite mining produces residual waste that is
left to pile up in the mining area. Based on the good characteristics of
granite, this stone is very suitable to be used as a coarse aggregate
substitution in concrete mixture. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a study
on concrete that uses granite as coarse aggregate in a concrete mixture by
utilizing granite waste remainder as coarse aggregate substitution with a
maximum gradation of 20 mm. 2) Fine Aggregate Fine aggregate
is natural sand from natural disintegration or stone produced by the stone
crusher industry that has a grain size of 5mm (passing through no.4 filter)
(SNI 03-2834-2000) or river sand from the river bottom. This sand generally has
fine and round grains due to the friction process. The fine aggregates used are
Mount Merapi sand from Muntilan Magelang and Serayu River sand. On fine
aggregate, tests were carried out on sieve analysis, content weight, water
absorption, and density. 3)
Coarse aggregate The coarse
aggregate used in this study originated from a stone crusher in Rawalo,
Banyumas Regency with a maximum gradation of 20 mm. 4)
Cement Cement as a
concrete mixture material is a hydraulic-inorganic adhesive in the form of fine
powder that has chemical bonding characteristics (adhesive and cohesive) and
can form a new compound (paste to solid) if reacted with water in a particular
time, on the other hand, Portland cement is the cement that contains calcium,
silicate, aluminate, and ferrite compounds with some other additive materials.
The cement that was used was Portland Cement Composite (PCC) type with Gresik
brand. 5)
Water The
requirements of water used for the concrete mixture are : · Must not contain more than 2 grams/liter of mud or other flying objects · Must not contain substances that can harm concrete (acid, organic substance, etc) · Must not contain more than 0,5 grams/liter of chloride (Cl). · Must not contain more than 1gram/liter of sulfate compounds. In a concrete mixture, water is added in ratio with cement
or fas. The requirement to hydrate cement is 1 (one)
portion of cement needs 0,25 portion of water weight. Concrete
that contains low water proportion will make the mixture very dry and hard to
solidify, an extra addition of water is needed to lubricate the mixture so that
it can be processed. On the other hand, if all water evaporates when the
concrete dries it will create pores. Therefore, it is important to maintain the
water proportion as minimal as possible The water that
is used is clean water that does not contain mud or oil and other substances
that can harm concrete. The water originated from the Structure Engineering
Laboratory of the Engineering Faculty of Wijayakusuma University. A study on
granite waste utilization as coarse aggregate substitution and the use of Mount
Merapi and Serayu River sand is conducted with the following conditions : · The mix design used the SNI 03-2834-2000 method which is about the procedure of normal concrete mixture planning. · Maximum coarse aggregate gradation is 20mm, the coarse aggregate originated from the Serayu River in Patikraja, Banyumas Regency. · The granite waste originated from Baseh Village, Kedungbanteng District, Banyumas Regency, Central Java Province. · The percentage of granite waste as coarse aggregate substitution is 0%, 50%, and 100%. · The sand originated from Mount Merapi and Serayu River. · The quality of concrete that was used was fc’ 30Mpa. · Concrete testing carried out includes slump flow testing and compressive strength testing. · The dosage of Sika ViscoCrete-3115N additive substance is 1,5% of cement weight. · There are 3 samples each for 7 days testing and 28 days testing. · Using Portland Cement, a PCC with Gresik brand. · The test object is cylindrical with 15 cm diameter and 30 cm height. This study is conducted by creating a test object in the Structural Engineering Laboratory. There are 3 (three) types of test objects in creating concrete with a plan quality of fc’ 30 Mpa. The first test object is concrete without admixture (0%), and the second and the third test objects use 50% and 100% of granite waste as coarse aggregate substitution. Then, the test objects are tested by compressive strength for 7 and 28 days. From the result of this study, it is expected that we find out the effect of granite waste as coarse aggregate substitution and zeolite as cement substitution towards concrete compressive strength 3. RESULT AND DISCUSSION The creation of
test object variations was determined as listed in the following Table 1 : Table 1
After the test object samples are made, treatment and
compressive strength tests using cylindrical concrete with 15 cm diameter and
30 cm height are carried out. The results of compressive strength calculation of 0% granite waste mixture with the addition of sika vicocrete 3115N as much as 1,5% of cement weight in 7 and 28 days can be seen in Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, and Table 5. Table 2

Overall comparison of the
compressive strength test of concrete with granite waste as coarse aggregate
substitution, the mixture of Mount Merapi and Serayu River sand, and addition
of 1,5% sika ViscoCrete-3115N can be seen in Figure 1 and Figure 2 as follows: Figure 1
At the age of 7 days, the maximum concrete compressive
strength achieved by BG 1 mixture is 22,23 Mpa. The decline of compressive
strength occurred in BG2, BG 3, and BG 4 variations. Meanwhile, at the age of
28 days, the maximum concrete compressive strength achieved by the BN 1 mixture
is 32,34 MPa and the decline of compressive strength occurred in BN2, BG 1, BG
2, BG 3, and BG 4 variations. Figure 2
A comparison of using Mount Merapi sand and Serayu River
sand produces different concrete compressive strength. The use of Mount Merapi
sand in BN 1, BG 1, and BG 3 variations produces bigger compressive strength
than Serayu River sand in BN 2, BG 2, and BG 4, both at the age of 7 days and
28 days. 4. CONCLUSIONS The Study of
the Compressive Strength of Concrete that adds granite waste as coarse
aggregate and the use of Serayu River sand and Mount Merapi sand can be
concluded as follows : 1)
From the results of the concrete compressive
strength test which aged 7 days, the maximum concrete compressive strength of
22,23 MPa is achieved by the mixture of Mount Merapi sand with 50% granite
waste as coarse aggregate substitution. The decline of compressive strength
occurred in the mixture of Serayu River sand with 50% granite waste as coarse
aggregate substitution and the mixture of Mount Merapi sand with 100% granite
waste as coarse aggregate substitution. On the other hand, in the concrete
compressive strength test which aged 28 days, the maximum compressive strength
was produced by normal concrete, the decline of compressive strength occurred
on all other variations with the addition of Mount Merapi sand, Serayu River
sand, 50% of granite waste and 100% of granite waste. 2) A comparison of the use of Mount Merapi sand and Serayu River sand in all granite waste substitution compositions shows that the concrete compressive strength of the mixture that uses Mount Merapi sand is greater than the concrete compressive strength that uses Serayu River sand, both on the 7 days and 28 days compressive strength test.
