Is the Bonafide work carried under the guidance of Mr. M. SUNIL BIRADAR
(Assistant Professor) in the partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of the degree in
Bachelor of Technology in ‘Civil Engineering’ during the academic year 2019- 2020.
Glass powder waste creates chronic environmental problems, mainly due to the
inconsistency of waste glass streams. Glass is widely used in our lives through
manufactured products such as sheet glass, bottles, glassware, and vacuum tubing.
Glass is an ideal material for recycling. The use of recycled glass helps in energy
saving. The increasing awareness of glass recycling speeds up inspections on the use of
waste glass with different forms in various fields. One of its significant contributions is
to the construction field where the waste glass was reused for concrete production. The
properties of concretes glass dust waste as fine aggregate were investigated in this
study. Glass dust waste was used as a partial replacement for sand at 10%, 20%
30%and 40% of concrete mixes. Compression strength for 7, 14- and 28-days concrete
of age were compared with those of concrete made with natural fine aggregates. The
results proved that highest strength activity given by glass dust waste after 28days.
