Deformation of concrete made with waste glass powder as partial cement replacement
Of late, the disposal management of glass materials became one of the most problematic waste materials to handle. It is a non-biodegradable and can’t be turned into manure are if it is not being handled properly, it can be a serious pollution. Glass materials however, have good properties and durability which may not be affected by ageing and will remain completely unchanged for several years. Concrete production on the other hand keeps increasing rapidly over the years. The escalating high demand of cement can be related with the large emission of the carbon dioxide (CO2) that may cause environmental impacts and global warming. Therefore, to overcome this issue, waste glass utilization has been studied to partially replace cement in concrete. This study investigated the amount of the waste glass powder that can be used as a cement replacement in the concrete mixture. The physical and mechanical properties of concrete with waste glass powder will be evaluated and compared to the normal concrete. From this investigation, the results illustrated that the replacement of glass powder reduced the strength of concrete (mechanical). However, it revealed that the workability (physical) of fresh concrete was improved with the increment of glass powder percentage. Nonetheless, the strength of concrete with partially glass powder cement replacement managed to achieve the target strength requirement of 25 MPa.
