Present era is the era of concrete because it is highly demanded material today. The basic raw materials for concrete are cement, sand and coarse aggregate. Due to depletion of natural rivers it is required to use other material than sand being used as fine aggregates. In this experimental study an attempt will be made to find the effect of partial replacement of Fine aggregate by Quarry Dust and Cement by Flyash. The innovative use of Quarry Dust in concrete formulations as a fine aggregate replacement in the range of 0%, 15%, 30% & 45% by weight for M-40 grade cement (PPC). Fly ash is also used as partial replacement of cement in the same proportion. The specimen is produced and tested as an alternative to traditional concrete in terms of strength and durability aspects. The experimental investigation is concern to know the behavior, mechanical properties and durability aspects of concrete
