Abstract

This study focuses on the utilization of non-biodegradable plastic waste and bagasse as partial replacement for fine aggregate. Fine aggregate is partially replaced by plastic and bagasse in proportion of 5%, 7.5%, and 10% respectively .We are adding plastic 60% and bagasse 40%. The tests are conducted to study the compressive strength of concrete for M25 grade and their results are compared with those of conventional concrete. The maximum value is obtained for 7.5% of partial replacement.
