Abstract

Concrete is one of the most widely used construction material in today’s world. Cement being one of the essential constituent of the concrete. Environmental issues are also playing a vital role in today’s world, the production of cement one of the major constituent of concrete leads to release the of significant amount of carbon dioxide a greenhouse gas contributing 7% of greenhouse gas emission to the earth atmosphere, beside deforestation and burning of fossil fuels. Safe disposal of glass waste generated in day to day life due to limited life span and after use it is either stock piled or sent to land fill is also a challenging task. There is now a significant world-wide interest to solve the environmental problem caused by industrial waste and other material by including such material in the manufacture of concrete. Effort have been made in concrete industry to use waste glass in concrete production not only provide significant environmental benefits but also enhances performances of concrete when used at optimum amounts. IN this study, glass fibers in different volume fraction with 20%, 30% and 40% replacement of cement by fly ash has been to study the effect on compressive strength, split tensile strength, of concrete and compared it to the conventional concrete. For each mix standard sizes of cubes, cylinders and as per Indian Standards were cast and tested for compressive strength and splittensile strength at age of 7days and 28days.
