Description

The increasing demand of concrete which produce the cost and materials for this purpose the wastes of glass and plastic are used as replacement of concrete. To use of glass powder and plastic as partial replacement of fine aggregate and coarse aggregate in concrete this generally reduces the density of the concrete. The application of innovative materials in the concrete will improve the strength of concrete in a better manner; one of such innovation is high strength concrete. High strength concrete can be achieved by many modes.so in this work we are going to replace fine aggregate and coarse aggregate by 2% and 4% using equal amount of plastic and glass powder. Finally we are going to evaluate the effectiveness of glass powder and plastic in strength enhancement and cost reduction. Strength and result was compared with normal concrete. The effect waste glass powder in the production high strength. It can be concluded that granulated waste materials such as glass and plastic can be used in cementitious concrete composites without seriously hindering its mechanical properties up to the composition range used in the study (2% and 4%) respectively.it can be used to supports the idea that all the waste materials, as used within the ranges specified acted as crack arresters in the entire composite prepared. The glass and plastic arrested the cracks completely or deflected them when encountered. In this lightweight high strength concrete may considerably reduce the dead loads in building which may simultaneously increase the stability of the building and the strength of concrete is also high in order to withstand high loads, these type of concrete can be produced in more cheaper way by using waste and recycled materials in concrete. These types of concrete can be adopted in any type of building work which has to withstand more loads. Due to its Workability and self-compacting nature, it can be used more in precast structures.
