520	3		_aThe growth in the construction industry has increased the used of concrete. Thus, the demand on the sand resources is also increased. The high demand on the natural sand lead to the collapse of river bank and also landscape destruction. An alternative to the sand is required to solve the problem and quarry dust is very suitable to be used as an alternative due to it similar physical and chemical properties to the natural sand. Durability of quarry dust concrete was studied in this research and it was compared with the durability of conventional concrete. Besides, the applicable of quarry dust in the concrete was studied to reduce the dependency on the natural sand in concrete production. Quarry dust concrete is a type of concrete where 50% of the sand was replaced by the quarry dust and produce a new concrete mix. The durability of both of the concretes were determined in five durability tests. There were acid resistance test, sulphate resistance test, chloride resistance test, sorptivity test and water absorption test. The sample used for test was design as M30 concrete with the size 100x100x100mm. All the sample cubes were placed in water curing for 28 days until it reach maximum strength. The change in weight and compressive strength of the concrete were determined and their durability properties was discussed and compared. The results show that conventional concrete is more durable than quarry dust concrete in the chemical tests. The reduction in compressive strength for quarry dust concrete after 90 days of the chemical test are in range of 34.1% to 78.8%. Whereas, the compressive strength of conventional concrete was reduced from 25.2% to 60.5%. In term of sorptivity, conventional concrete has a sorptivity value about 0.054 while quarry dust concrete was about 0.066. The durability of the concrete was related to their porosity and permeability of the concrete toward the solution. Concrete with better compaction and density was better in chemical resistance and reduce the permeability of the solution into the concrete and caused matrix destruction. These explained that conventional concrete has better durability than quarry dust concrete. However, the durability of quarry dust is still acceptable and the used of quarry dust as partial replacement to the sand can reduce the dependency on the natural materials in the concrete production.
