Abstract: This project reports the results of experiments evaluating the utilization of egg shell powder from egg production
trade as partial replacement for standard cement in cement mortar. The chemical composition of the egg shell powder and
compressive strength of the cement mortar made up our minds. The cement mortar of combine proportion 1:3 during which
cement is part replaced with egg shell powder as 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% half-hour by weight of cement.. There was a
pointy decrease in compressive strength on the far side five-hitter egg shell powder substitution. The compressive strength made
up our minds at hardening ages 28 days the admixtures used are Saw dirt ash, ash and small oxide to reinforce the strength of the
concrete combine with 5% egg shell powder as partial replacement for cement. During this direction, associate degree
experimental investigation of compressive strength, split durability, and Flexural strength was undertaken to use egg shell
powder and admixtures as partial replacement for cement in concrete.

Keywords: Egg Shell Powder, Cement Mortar, Saw Dirt Ash, Fly Ash, Small Oxide, Compressive Strength, Split Durability,
Flexural Strength.
