UTILIZING E-WASTE AND MARBLE DUST IN CONCRETE: EXPERIMENTAL STUDY AND ANALYSIS

Abstract

The work was conducted on M20 grade mix. The replacement of coarse aggregate with E-waste in the range of different percentages (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%) and 15% replacement of cement with marble dust. Finally, the fresh and harden properties of concrete mix specimens obtained from the addition of these materials are compared with control concrete mix. The test results shows that a proper improvement in compressive strengths were achieved in the E-waste and marble dust concrete compared to conventional concrete and can be used effectively in concrete. The reuse of E-waste leads in waste reduction and resources conservation.
