Abstract |
|
Low density polyethylene plastic (LDPE) plastic can be effectively used for making paver block LDPE plastic bags are cleaned and added with natural sand at various proportions to prepare paver block. It control pollution and reduce cost. Paving blocks used on footpaths and roads for easy laying, better look and finish. Waste plastic used to replace cement in the production of paver block. Conventional M20 grade concrete paver block and paver block made of waste plastic and natural sand of proportion waste plastic to natural sand: 100:00, 90:10, 80:20, 70:30 and 60:40 are tested for weight, water absorption, rebound hammer and compressive strength test. 100:00 proportion gives maximum compressive strength of 23 N/mm2 which is more than conventional M20 grade concrete paver block |
