Beneficial use of waste glass as partial substitute for cement and aggregates in concrete.

M. Tech. Civil Engineering / The re-use of waste materials is promoted for the preservation of non-renewable natural resources. Glass waste was investigated as partial cement and aggregate replacement in concrete. Two types of soda-lime waste glass: Superfine Glass Waste and Ceramic Stone and Porcelain glass waste, residues of glass recycling processes, were used for the experimental programme. This study focused on the reuse of glass waste in concrete in optimal mix proportions, to partially replace cement and aggregates; for low cost housing, concrete applications and greening of the environment.
