Main Article Content
The plastic and glass residues are not biodegradable and they have a low recycling rate. They can be utilized as precursors in concrete preparation. This study investigates the effect of the incorporation of waste glass in the mechanical properties of concrete containing pelletized plastic as fine aggregates replacement. The concrete mixtures were designed and prepared with 20% replacement of fine aggregates. Different Plastic: Glass (1:0, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3) volume ratio were prepared. The results show that the slump increases when the content of glass increases. Additionally, the incorporation of glass did not have a profound implications on density. It also demonstrates that glass incorporation improves the compressive strength of concrete. The largest compressive strength was obtained over the 1:2 concrete mix. Concrete containing pelletized plastic and glass is a promising solution to solve of waste management.
