The amounts of waste glass have expanded after some time because of quick industrialization. Moreover, the majority of times has not reused this waste. Concrete is the most generally utilized development element, and the large measure of natural assets is needed to produce concrete. In this way, it is essential to examine the feasibility of reusing of material waste glass as ingredients during the production of mortar. This work describes the aftereffects of an examination directed to evaluate the likelihood of using waste glass powder (WGP) obtained from glass industries, as partial substitution of cement. The objective was to examine the effect of WGP on the fresh properties of mortar. The WGP replacement content is considered as 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40% by weight of cement. Based on the outcome, it is found that WGP shows pozzolanic characteristics. By using 20% WGP in the mortar, it was concluded that compressive strength increases by around 11%. This result indicates that the WGP has good pozzolanic reactivity. However, when the WGP replacement level increases, the setting time of cement mix decreases. |
