Abstract

This study investigates the possibility of utilizing sand of Shatt Al Hensher in the concrete industry, where the study of the sands of Sedi Al Sayha and Zlitan used in the work of concrete locally is for comparison with the sand targeted in the study. The research included several tests conducted on the three sand (Shatt Al Hensher and Zliten and Sedi Al Sayha), its sieve analysis, Sand pollution analysis, chemical and metallurgical analysis, fresh concrete landing test, The results of the pressure resistance test for hardened concrete after 28 days using Zliten sand were 79.10 MPa, Sedi Al Sayha was 67.39 MPa, and Shatt Al Hensher was 79.33 MPa in rigid pressure resistance tests and other relevant tests to explore a new source of sand in Libya. The results were satisfactory, as the sand of Shatt Al Hensher was used for normal concrete at a good level.
