 ABSTRACT

Concrete industry is one of the largest consumers of natural resources due to

which sustainability of concrete industry is under threat. The environmental and economic
concern is the biggest challenge concrete industry is facing. In our studies, the issues of
environmental and economic concern are addressed by the use of waste glass as partial
replacement of fine aggregates in concrete. Fine aggregates were replaced by waste glass
powder as 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% by weight for M-20 mix. The concrete
specimens were tested for compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, durability (water
absorption) and density at 28 days of age and the results obtained were compared with
those of normal concrete.
 MATERIALS REQUIRED

• Cement
• Fine aggregate
• Coarse aggregate
• Water
• Crushed Glass Waste
 TEST ARE GOING TO BE CONDUCTING
ON GLASS POWDER

• Slump cone test

• Compressive strength test
• Vee Bee test
 ADVANTAGES

• Due to similarity in chemical composition and crystalline structure,

recycled glass powder can be used as an alternative material for
sand.
• By using low-cost and environmental friendly building materials from
industrial waste, we can produce a sustainable concrete.
 DISADVANTAGES

• Glass waste materials are hard to find everywhere

• Glass waste should be handled carefully
•
 CONCLUSION

• The results of concrete compressive strength test showed the optimum

value can be achieved by 22.8 MPa with 15% variation in glass
powder content.
• The use of glass powder is effective as a substitute for partial sand at
15% of coarse glass powder
