AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON THE USE OF WASTE GLASS POWDER AND FLY ASH POWDER IN PAVER BLOCKs

  • Unique Paper ID: 179816
  • PageNo: 8421-8425
  • Abstract:
  • This research project focuses on the development of eco- friendly paver blocks by partially replacing conventional materials with waste glass powder and fly ash. The main objective is to promote sustainability in the construction industry by reducing dependency on natural resources, lowering carbon emissions, and encouraging effective waste management through recycling. The study explores the potential of these industrial by-products as alternative raw materials to produce high-performance paver blocks. Various mix proportions are tested to assess their impact on the mechanical properties, such as compressive strength, flexural strength, and durability. Additionally, the long-term performance and economic feasibility of the modified paver blocks are evaluated and compared with conventional blocks. The results aim to demonstrate that using glass powder and fly ash can lead to a more sustainable and cost-effective solution for modern construction needs.
