Abstract |
|
The current work is carried out to compare the strengths characteristics of conventional concrete with the concrete replaced with glass powder as partial replacement of cement. The work is carried out with M20 and M30 grade concrete with w/c ratio of 0.5 and 0.45 as a control specimen and the glass powder is replaced by cement in the range from 10% to 40% with 10% increment by weight of cement. The glass powder used in this work is having the particle size less than 90 microns. For all the mixes compressive, flexural, and split tensile strengths are determined at 7 and 28 days of curing. The result of present investigation indicate that glass powder incorporation results in significant improvements in the compressive, flexural, and split tensile strengths of concrete upto 20% of replacement. |
