    abstract = {The purpose of this study is to utilize the waste
in concrete. Brick dust and limestone powder is wasteful
material which on dumping not only occupy land but also
it has environmental problems which is hazardous to
livings. This waste is generated in brick kilns, brick
masonry construction sites and during transportation and
limestone waste is generated from fine material associated
with coarse aggregate production. By reutilizing brick
dust and limestone powder the problem could be solved
up to some extent. In this investigation, combine brick
dust and limestone powder were used in plain concrete to
check its fresh and hardened properties. Brick dust and
limestone powder was combination for used to check the
workability and strength of concrete, using the
water-cement ratio of 0.5 which was kept constant during
study. Three samples were cast for each concrete mix at
age 28 days with 0, 10, 15 and 20% by weight of cement
incorporation of brick dust and limestone powder. The all
samples test results reveal that added of brick dust and
limestone powder shows slightly lower workability than
control sample. However, strength results were quite
competitive with 15% combination of brick dust and
limestone powder shows higher compressive strength.
This study shows that incorporation of combination brick
dust and limestone powder can be can be effectively used
in construction applications.}
