The ongoing demands for sustainable construction material have led to increased research on utilization of industrial and construction waste in concrete production. This study investigates the performance of concrete by incorporating waste terracotta and glass particles as partial replacement for conventional coarse and fine aggregates. The primary objective is to evaluate the mechanical and durability properties of such modified concrete while promoting eco-friendly waste management practices. In this experiment, waste terracotta is used as a substitute for coarse aggregates, whereas crushed glass particles are used for replacing fine aggregates mix varying proportions in combine forms. A series of concrete mixes are prepared with different replacement percentages like 20%, 30% and 40%, and tests are conducted to assess workability, compressive strength, tensile strength and flexural strength. Additionally, durability aspect such as water absorption and resistance to environmental conditions are also examined. Compare replacements with control mix to show the existing values for futuristic scope. Our focus is gaining attention because these materials are easily available from construction debris and ceramic industries.
KEYWORDS
The research successfully demonstrated that waste terracotta aggregates and glass aggregates can be effectively utilized as combined partial replacement materials in concrete production. The experiment results confirmed that the developed concrete achieved satisfactory mechanical properties while contributing to sustainability, waste management and conservation of natural resources. Therefore, the use of these waste materials in concrete can be considered a promising alternative for sustainable construction practices.
