Abstract

Water is essential for all purposes, in present days there is a scarcity of water. Now a days construction activities goes on increasing, therefore they require huge quantity of fresh water. To fulfil the demand of water in construction field, it is necessary to replace fresh water by treated domestic waste water. This project aims to evaluate the simple treatment technique of domestic waste water, its uses in concrete as mixing water and its compressive strength. The comparison results between potable and treated domestic waste water shows that increase in compressive strength of concrete, the mix proportion of 1:1.71:2.85 gives maximum compressive strength and use of treated domestic water is recommended in field application.
