Experimental Investigation on Strength Parameters for Composite Concrete by Using Waste Glass Powder, Flyash Aggregate and M-Sand

Nithin V, Mr. Kiran M.U

Abstract: Selection of the project is to use glass powder, fly ash and manufactured sand, effectively and environment friendly nature in concrete construction. Glass powder as well as Fly ash is a waste material from glass industry and thermal power plant respectively. According to Indian Standards method mix design was done for M20 Grade of concrete. Ordinary Portland cement of 53 grade was selected. In this project, the cement is partially replaced by glass powder for 25%, 30% and coarse aggregate were partially replaced by fly ash aggregate from 25% to 50% by step in steps of 5%. In recent times, the addition of artificial aggregates has shown a reasonable cut down in the construction costs and had gained good attention due to quality on par with conventional aggregates. This provides an environmental friendly method of fly ash and glass powder disposal.
