PARCIAL REPLACEMENT OF SAND BY GLASS POWDER

Concrete is an essential building material which is widely used in the construction of infrastructure such as building, bridges, highway, dams & many other facilities. The main natural and cheapest resource of sand is river.Dams are constructed on every river hence these resources are erasing very Fast. Now a day’s good sand is not readily available, it should be transported From long distance. Those resources are also exhausting very rapidly. So it is A need of the time to find some substitute to natural river sand. The artificial Sand produced by proper machines can be a better substitute to river sand. The Sand should be sharp, clean and course. The grains should be of durable Material. The grain sizes must be such that it should give minimum voids. In this project we have make around 27 blocks having size 15*15cm.In that we replace Sand by fine crushed powder of glass by percentage method (10 , 20 & 30%) which is waste product from industries, land, general waste Resources. Because of that there is lots of saving in the sand amount & we Know that the glass is solid waste material which is available in large Quantities in nature. So that we can minimize at least some amount of solid Waste from nature . So that this project is Eco-Friendly because the material Which we are using is easily available in nature.
