Abstract:
The rapid advancement in construction has significantly increased the demand for natural aggregates, while also generating substantial solid waste, especially from building demolitions. Reusing demolition waste, such as vitrified tile and granite powder, is gaining attention as a sustainable approach to address both waste disposal and aggregate shortages in concrete production. Vitrified tile waste arises not only from demolished structures but also from tile manufacturing, where around 20-30% of production ends up as waste. This study explores the use of crushed vitrified tile waste and granite powder as partial substitutes for coarse and fine aggregates in M20 grade concrete. Crushed vitrified tiles replaced coarse aggregates at 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% increments. Concrete mixes were tested for workability, compressive strength, and split tensile strength after 7 and 28 days of curing. Results showed that strength and performance improved with up to a 10% replacement level of vitrified tile waste; beyond this, benefits diminished, establishing 10% as an optimal replacement level. This method conserves natural resources, effectively manages construction waste, and maintains concrete quality.
