EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE BY USING GLASS WASTE AS PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF FINE AGGREGATE
Keywords:
Glass Waste, Compressive Strength, Splitting Tensile StrengthAbstract
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 using 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 at 7 days &28 days of age and the results obtained were compared with those of normal concrete.
