In the world of the construction industrial era, the waste generated from the stone industries causes environmental problems. At the same time, Construction industries face many problems not only at the end of the life cycle of the products but also at the beginning of it. It is also significant to develop low-cost building material by the waste produced by stone industry. Therefore, the reuse of Granite fine waste material in the construction industry can be emphasized to produce low-cost concrete. This Project aims at innovative use of Granite Fine waste in concrete by replacing the fine aggregate which is the other alternative that can be used in conventional concrete. The proposed work is investigated for a concrete mix of M20 grade with 0%,10%,20%, and 30% of Granite Fine waste used as the replacement of fine aggregate. A series of 12 cubes are cast and tested after 28 days for compressive strength. The result appears that the compressive strength of concrete increases up to 10% after the replacement of fine aggregate with Granite fine waste and further, it decreases as the percentage of granite increases.
