    The document summarizes an experimental study on partially replacing coarse aggregate with waste bottle caps in concrete. Concrete mixes with 0% and 10% replacement of coarse aggregate with crushed bottle caps were tested. Tests conducted on cubes, cylinders and beams at 7, 14, and 28 days found that compressive, flexural and split tensile strengths increased with the addition of bottle caps. The study concludes that bottle caps can effectively be reused as a partial replacement for coarse aggregate in concrete production, resulting in a lightweight and higher strength concrete.

    ABSTRACT

    As we all know cement concrete is widely and commonly used in construction industry. All the materials
    required to make the concrete are extracted from the environment. The environmental resources are need to be
    used in control to protect the environment. There is excess amount of industrial waste that needs to treated so
    that it won’t cause any harm to the surrounding human race and the other environmental elements. Here we
    are trying to deal with the large amount of metal waste generated in the form of soft drink bottle caps. These
    caps are hard to biodegrade therefore these can be recycled or reused. The experiment initiated with 10%
    replacement of coarse aggregate with waste bottle caps. The size of bottle caps is 2.5cm (diameter) and 3mm
    projections. M30 grade mix is used with 0.42 water cement ratio. The mechanical properties are tested by
    carrying out the compression test, flexural test and split tensile test.

    order to compare the mechanical properties of this
    We need the special attention towards the metal and concrete with the regular concrete. The tests namely
    plastic waste generated from the industry as these are compression, flexural and split tensile test are carried
    not biodegradable which leads the saturation of these out on different specimens. For compression test; cube
    materials on the earth for a very long period. Concrete of 150x150x150 mm, for Split tensile test; cylinder
    is most used man- made material as construction is a 150mm diameter and 300mm height and for flexural
    vital part of the development of the country or the test; beam 100x100x500 mm are tested. The test
    facilities provided for the living. Using the bottle caps results are taken for 7 days, 14 days and 28 days.
    is one of the way to utilize it in the concrete
    production. The caps are lighter in weight than the II. MATERIALS
    stone metal. The metal caps are collected and partial
    replacement of coarse aggregate is Cement- Cement is a binding medium in the concrete
    production. Ordinary Portland cement of grade 53 is
    used confirming to IS 12269-1987. Initial setting time
    is 30 min. And final setting time is 600 min. The
    specific gravity of cement is 3.15.

    V. REVIEW

    This study is intended to find the effective ways to


    reutilize the waste Aluminium caps, which can be
    reused as a useful raw material (Coarse aggregate) for
    the preparation of the concrete. Possibly the
    compressive strength of the concrete increases when
    coarse aggregate is partially replaced by the metal caps.
