Abstract

The concrete which is made with wastes that are freely available in present environment is named as eco-friendly concrete or Green concrete. It has been observed that 1.71 tons of CO2 is produced per ton of cement production which is one of the causes for environmental pollution. This Green Concrete is an environmental friendly material and the overall impact on the environment per ton of concrete is limited. Some of the eco-friendly materials are fly ash, marble powder, ceramic, crushed stone dust, demolition wastes, rice husk ash etc. In the present study, cement is replaced with ceramic powder, marble powder and rice husk ash and the cement is further replaced with ceramic powder and bonding material glass fibres and tested for compression and flexural strength to find the optimum mix.
