Investigation on Waste Plastic Sustainable Cellular Lightweight Concrete

The main objective of this project is to use the waste plastic as a coarse aggregate for making concrete. It is due to rapid industrialization and urbanization and increase on the plastic waste. The purpose of this investigation is to examine the custom of waste plastic as coarse aggregate in concrete mix of M20 grade concrete in a fractional way. In this investigation, the three mixes are prepared by using waste plastic. The waste plastic can be replaced in place of coarse aggregate in terms of volume 10 , 20 , and 30 and the suitable ratio can be obtained which meets the desire strength and cost effectiveness. The waste plastic is still not used in many areas where it can be used. It‘s observed that up to 10 replacement of ordinary coarse aggregate replaced by plastic coarse aggregate the compressive strength of concrete will increases after 10 it start decreasing. It is eco friendly building material it does not harm environment. And it is was observed that an increase in percentage of plastic waste will decrease the density of concrete. It satisfies the SDG goal of RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPSTION, PRODUCTION good involving use the product which affect the environment. Nisha. N | K.
