Abstract:
Due To The Day-to-day Innovations And Development In Construction Field, The Use Of Natural Aggregates Is Increased Tremendously And At The Same Time, The Production Of Solid Wastes From The Demolitions Of Constructions Is Also Quite High. Because Of These Reasons The Reuse Of Demolished Constructional Wastes Like Ceramic Tile And Granite Powder Came Into The Picture To Reduce The Solid Waste And To Reduce The Scarcity Of Natural Aggregates For Making Concrete. The Ceramic Tile Waste Is Not Only Occurring From The Demolition Of Structures But Also From The Manufacturing Unit. Studies Show That About 20-30% Of Material Prepared In The Tile Manufacturing Plants Are Transforming Into Waste. Granite Powder And Ceramic Tile Powder Were Replaced In Place Of Fine Aggregate By 10% Along With The Ceramic Coarse Tile. M25 Grade Of Concrete Was Designed And Tested. The Mix Design For Different Types Of Mixes Were Prepared By Replacing The Coarse Aggregates And Fine Aggregate At Different Percentages Of The Compressive Strength Greater Than 42mpa As High Strength Concrete.
