摘要:Concrete industry is one of the largest consumers of natural resources due to which sustainability ofconcrete industry is under threat. The environmental and economic concern is the biggest challenge concrete industry isfacing. In this paper, suitability of use of waste glass powder as partial replacement of cement in fibre reinforcedconcrete is discussed so that issues concerned with environment will get some alternative. Cement was replaced bywaste glass powder as 0% to 40% in increment of 5% in M30 mix. The concrete specimens were tested forcompressive strength, splitting tensile strength, flexural strength at 7days, 28 days, 60days, 90days and 180days of ageand the results obtained were compared with those of normal concrete. The results concluded the permissibility ofusing waste glass powder as partial replacement of cement at 20% by weight.
