 Abstract:

This paper reflects the benefits of ceramic waste in the construction industry. Slump test, the specific gravity of cement, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate including water absorption of aggregates tests are conducted to justify the fresh properties of concrete and are verified. Cubes and cylinders of size 150x150x150mm and 150x 500mm are cast with and without ceramic powder of 10%, 20%, and 30% respectively. In order to get a relative idea about the mechanical properties of concrete, axial compression test and tensile test of cubes and cylinders for 7 days and 28 days of curing in water were done. Sorptivity test has also been conducted to assess the durability of ceramic-based concrete. Test results indicate that the use of ceramic powder in concrete has improved the performance of compression strength as well as in durability.
