Abstract |
|
Concrete is one of the tremendously consumed substance on the earth after water. Study shows that about 7 million cubic meter of concrete is consumed every year. As the cement industry is largest of all, it gives a major contribution to global warming by releasing about 7% of Co2 of all the other gases. A preventive solution to this is to reduce the use of cement by adding some useful fibers materials to it. Many studies are ongoing to deal with this issue .As may researchers have proved that replacing cement with GGBS & PFA can reduce the use of cement to a certain limit similarly, utilizing glass powder as a replacement to cement in % can be done. It can be replaced by 5%-25% at interval of 5% for better results. The specimens with glass powder are compared with conventional concrete after curing of 3days, 7days, and 28days of curing. |
