摘要：Due to rapid population growth and their consistent necessity the use of plastic articles is increasingregularly. This creates a large quantity of garbage every day which is unhealthy and pollutes the environment. Inpresent scenario solid waste management is a challenge in our country. The present topic covers the use of recycledplastics as partial replacement of natural coarse aggregate in cement concrete mix. Complete replacement of naturalcoarse aggregate by recycle plastic aggregate is not realistic so partial replacement in various percentages wereincorporated. Intended percentages of recycled plastic aggregates were from 0% to 40% with a increment of 10. It wasobserved that higher compressive strength was obtained with replacement of 20% natural coarse aggregate by recycledplastic aggregate in concrete mix.
