ABSTRACT
In construction industry, the use of course aggregate and consumption of
ceramic materials is increasing every day. While a reasonable quantity of
ceramic tiles material ends up as waste the use of these waste in the
production of concrete can be an efficient measure in disposing of these
waste and in keeping the environment clean and improving the properties
of concrete. Compressive strength test was carried out on the cubes
produced with ceramic tiles waste of 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% 40% and 50%
with natural coarse aggregate. After analyzing all the results, obtained, the
highest compressive strength value was obtained at 5%. This shows that
5% replacement of ceramic tiles for all the replacement and all the curing
days has the highest compressive strength value(12.07, 21.78 and 20.71) .
after 20% ceramic waste tile, the compressive strength starts decreasing as
compared to control sample of 14 curing days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
