Experimental Study on the Optimum Design and Performance of Porous Concrete with Partial Replacement of Cement with Glass Powder
Given the concrete jungle of the metropolitan cities resulting to increasing carbon footprint in the global atmosphere, the need for reduction in carbon emission is the need of the hour. Construction and its allied activities accounting for more than 38% of global carbon emission need to take part in mitigating as such. Many such metropolitan cities saw improper design and town planning resulting to water logging and drainage issues, which are a main concern. One such mitigation strategy is to implement the use of Porous Concrete on light traffic pathways. Porous concrete are construction materials that allows for seepage of water through the appropriate voids in its form without compromising its strength. Porous concrete as pavement materials will also address the drainage issues that the main Indian cities like Delhi and Mumbai are facing. It is so designed to recharge ground water as well by its seepage action. This study focused on the optimum design for strength parameters of Porous Concrete partially replaced with glass powder in 0%, 10%, 15% and 20%. The fresh and hardened properties of the porous concrete are conducted and compared with the nominal sample (controlled sample) of M25 grade porous concrete.
