Study of Concrete using E-waste as Partial Replacement of Coarse Aggregate

Solid waste management is one in all the key environmental issues in our country currently a day. the current study covers the employment or recycled e-wastes as replacement of coarse aggregates in concrete. The most aim of the study is to analyze the amendment in mechanical properties of concrete with the addition of e-wastes in concrete. In conjunction with the mechanical properties, thermal characteristics of the resultant concrete is additionally studied. It is found that the employment of e-waste aggregates leads to the formation of light-weight concrete. The compressive, similarly as strength of concrete reduces with the introduction of e-wastes. The foremost necessary amendment led to by the employment of e-wastes is that the thermal conduction of concrete is reduced by victimization e-wastes in concrete. Therefore, it is often aforesaid that recycled e-wastes are often used for thermal insulation of buildings.
