 SCOPE AND LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

The scope of this feasibility study will be conducted with the purpose of enhancing the
workability and strength parameters, specifically the compressive strength of concrete hollow
blocks. The study focuses on the utilization of plastics and other waste materials which is plastic.
This study shows 57% difference in the strength by using plastic compared to local concrete
blocks. This proves the necessity for further research regarding concrete mix design, amount of
cement and properties of local concrete blocks as well as other technical and non-technical
aspects to determine the appropriate mix design and feasibility in the production industry. Since
plastic waste takes years to decompose, inappropriately dumped plastic materials cause flooding.
So, instead of dumping such plastic waste products, one way to alleviate those issues is to
repurpose them. In this experiment, we will show how to make hollow blocks out of plastic
waste. We throw away huge amounts of polymer every day in the form of plastic bottles, cartons,
and yogurt pots. According to experts, 25% of polymer waste is unsuitable for recycling for three
reasons: it is economically unprofitable, and it is too dirty. The waste plastic was collected and
cut into small pieces. Collecting plastic wrappers and other plastic waste and reusing or turning
them into new items to improve the environment this project may be useful in the home. These
plastic wastes can be reused more efficiently. While solving the plastic waste problem in the
Philippines has a long way to go, there are continuous initiatives among Filipino communities to
help address the problem.
