摘要:The global warming is caused by the emission of green house gases, such as CO2, to the atmosphere. Amongthe greenhouse gases, CO2 contributes about 65% of global warming. The global cement industry contributes about 7% ofgreenhouse gas emission to the earth’s atmosphere. Consequently efforts have been made in the concrete industry to usewaste materials as partial replacement of coarse or fine aggregates and cement. Waste glass is one materials when ground toa very fine powder shows pozzolanic properties which can be used as a partial replacement for cement in concrete. In thispaper, an attempt has been made to find out the strength of concrete containing waste glass powder as a partial replacementof cement for concrete. Cement replacement by glass powder in the range 5% to 40% increment of 5% has been studied. Itwas tested for compressive strength and flexural strength at the age of 7, 28 and 90 days and compared with those ofconventional concrete. Results showed that replacement of 20% cement by glass powder was found to have higher strength.Also alkalinity test was done to find out resistance to corrosion.
