abstract = {Water is an essential resource in the construction industry, particularly for concrete production and curing. Due to increasing water scarcity and uneven distribution of freshwater resources, the utilization of treated wastewater (TWW) has gained attention as a sustainable alternative. This experimental study investigates the feasibility of using treated domestic wastewater as mixing water in concrete, along with the addition of different fibre percentages. Concrete specimens were prepared using potable water and treated wastewater with fibre contents of 1%, 1.5%, and 2%. Fresh and hardened concrete properties such as workability, compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength were evaluated. The results indicate that concrete prepared using treated wastewater satisfies Indian Standard requirements and exhibits comparable strength characteristics to concrete prepared with potable water. The study concludes that treated wastewater can be effectively reused in concrete production, contributing to sustainable construction practices and conservation of freshwater resources.},
