Abstract

Concrete is the most versatile material in building industry. River Sand is scarcely available now and other alternative materials are being tried. Ceramic tiles are widely used in the construction industry in which about 25% becomes waste. This investigation deals with replacing sand partially with 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% of waste powdered ceramic tile in concrete. The test results for M30 grade concrete with water cement ratio of 0.4 and partial replacement by 30% shows an increase of 13% and 15% respectively in compressive and flexural strength. For 40% replacement of sand with ceramic tile, the compression and flexural strength are at par with conventional concrete. The result leads to the effective utilization of ceramic tile waste thus by reducing the disposal and environmental problems.
