Abstract
in this research low density poly ethylene (ldpe) granules are used for the replacement of coarse aggregate to produce concrete cubes, cylinders, prism, and reinforced concrete beams. ldpe mixed concrete cubes, cylinders, prism, and reinforced concrete beams were casted by hand mix and found the strength of concrete by compression test, split tension test, flexural strength test and young’s modulus test experimentally evaluated. it is found that strength of plastic replaced concrete gained the strength of conventional concrete.
this research study is aimed at concrete mix with partial replacement of coarse aggregate by ldpe plastic granules (0%, 15%, 25% and 35%) which will reduce the dead weight of structure and increase safety to the structure because of decrease in weight.
hence the use of concrete not only beneficial for structural aspects it will also be helpful in disposal of plastic wastes.
Keywords- ldpe plastic granules, compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength, young's modulus, %replacement.
