The expanding familiarity with glass reusing speeds up examinations on the utilization of waste glass with various structures in different fields. One of its critical commitments is to the construction field where the waste glass was reused for concrete production. The use of glass in structural concrete still needs change. Research facility tests were directed to additionally investigate the utilization of waste glass as fine total and coarse totals substitution in concrete. The examination showed that 5% Waste glass can viably be utilized as fine aggregate and coarse aggregate substitution without generous change in quality. Key words: Waste glass, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, compressive strength, concrete.

International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology, 8(10), 2017, pp INTRODUCTION The sustainability of concrete industry is under threat owing to the continuous consumption of natural resources. Natural resources of making concrete or ingredients of concrete are limited in quantity and if used at the current pace in concrete industry, concrete may have to be discard at some point of time as a construction material leading to havoc. In order to make efficient use of natural resources in the concrete industry, it is a necessary option to use the waste materials as constituents of concrete. This will not only ensure sustainability of concrete industry, but will reduce production cost of concrete and finally be environment friendly.

2 Experimental Study on Partial Replacement of Fine and Coarse Aggregate with Waste Glass with disposal problem and hazardous effects on environment. Moreover, most of the waste materials have no use. Some wastes are non-biodegradable thus occupying permanent land area in today s world when land is so much insufficient that people are planning to reside on moon. If such waste materials are utilized in concrete industry as ingredient of concrete after assessing their performance, it will be extremely beneficial in making concrete industry sustainable, utilizing idle waste materials and rendering concrete production economical. Some such waste materials which could be used in concrete as aggregates are Recycled aggregate, Rubber tyre, Waste glass, Ceramic waste, PET bottle waste etc. Using waste glass (gathered from colored soda bottles) as partial replacement to coarse aggregate (with proportion up to 60%) did not have a significant effect upon the workability of the concrete and only slight reduction of its strength was observed [1]. The replacement of aggregate by glass at level of 20% by weight has a significant effect on the compressive strength of the concrete as compared with the control sample due to the nature of coarse glass [2]. colored glass as coarse and fine aggregates in order to achieve a high performance and aesthetic level of concrete. It was proved that high compressive strength concrete with the value above 40MPa can be obtained by using colored glass as aggregates beside other materials as partial replacement of cement [3]. It was reported that the optimum value of coarse waste glass to be used within the concrete mix with a water-cement ratio of 0.4 as about [4]. Water/cement ratio equal to 0.5, showed that using Waste Glass resulted in decreasing the slump and fresh density due to angular grain shape, whereas the compressive, splitting, and flexural strengths noticeably enhanced [5]. the mix(40:40:20)having the balanced ratio of glass beads and round marbles possess maximum compressive strength which is 3889 psi, as glass beads perform better in bond formation but have lower strength, on the other hand marbles are strong in themselves but not good in bonding [6]. Recycled Concrete Aggregate (30%) + Crushed Glass (20%) can be used as a partial replacement for coarse aggregate as it provides high compressive and tensile strength [7]. It was found that maximum increase in compressive strength occurred for the concrete mix containing 10% waste glass as fine aggregate [8]. 2. MIX PROPORTIONS POWDER (%) CEMENT FA Table 1 Mix Proportions CA W/C POWDER WT AGGREGATE WT(kg) RESULTS It is clear that, as expected, the density of concrete with waste glass decreases with increasing percentages of waste glass due to the difference between density of waste glass and natural fine aggregate and coarse aggregate. The density for control mix of M20 grade of concrete have been 2821 & 2462 Kg/m editor@iaeme.com

3 D Rajitha, V Srinivas and M Zoheb Nawaz In M20 grade concrete, Wet density ranged from Kg/m³ Dry density ranged from Kg/m³. It can be observed that, density of concrete decreased with the use of waste glass due to the difference between density of waste glass and natural fine aggregate and coarse aggregate.

CONCLUSIONS Based on study conducted on waste glass concrete in which fine aggregate and coarse aggregate is replaced with waste glass in different proportions of 5%, 10% and 15% for M20 grade concrete, the compressive strength of the concrete increases up to 5% by replacement of glass and then gradually decreases with increase of glass content.
