Using of Glass Wastes as a Fine Aggregate in Concrete Mixture
In this study, the waste glass (WG) is considered as a fine aggregate in the concretemixture. WG is used after grinding to size according to Iraqi sand specificationsNo.45. The waste glass has been used instead of sand in different proportions whichare 0%, 33%, 66% and 100%. The effects of WG on com...

| description | In this study, the waste glass (WG) is considered as a fine aggregate in the concretemixture. WG is used after grinding to size according to Iraqi sand specificationsNo.45. The waste glass has been used instead of sand in different proportions whichare 0%, 33%, 66% and 100%. The effects of WG on compressive strength of theconcrete and unit weight are analysed. As results of this study, WG is determined tohave a significant effect upon the reduction of its compressive strength and there is asignificant decreasing of its unit weight. As for cost analysis, it was determined tolower the cost of concrete production. This study was an environmental one inconsideration of the fact that WG could be used in the concrete as fine aggreagateswithout the need for a high cost or rigorous energy. |
