HI Frank, it seems from other sources that quarry dust adds strength to concrete and not weaken as you say, see http://lejpt.academicdirect.org/A17/085_096.htm
Hi Mwash..good to see you back into construction industry…the article talks about CRUSHED GRANITE and not QUARRY DUST.It also talks about PAVEMENTS and not BUILDINGS STRUCTURES. Quarry dust is soft and flaky . Google for flakinesses in concrete to learn more about reduction in strength. Also Google for flakiness index in concrete.
