Özet
The major aim of this study is to use Waste Glass Powder (WGP) which is obtained from grinding glass waste using an abrasion apparatus, as cement and a fine aggregate substitute in concrete. The physical and mechanical characteristics, workability, and compressive strength of concrete were studied by using WGP as cement and fine aggregate replacement simultaneously. In order to perform correctly, the glass has to be sieved to particle sizes of less than 150 µm sieve for cement replacement and 4.75 mm for fine aggregate replacement. WGP was used to replace the cement and fine aggregate in concrete, yielding products with respective cement contents of 10.0% and 15% and fine aggregate contents of 15.0% and 20%, and the properties of this concrete have been compared with reference specimens with zero replacement. Cube specimens were cast, cured, and tested for compressive strength and workability at 7, 14, 28, and 56 days of age, and the results were then compared to those of traditional concrete. The use of WGP as a cement and fine aggregate substitute resulted in a reduction in concrete's compressive strength and workability. However, the findings revealed that WGP could be used as a partial substitute for cement and fine aggregates, with 10 to 15% of cement and fine aggregate substitution by WGP being the optimum in terms of strength and economy. As a result, we can utilize it in structures that are moderately heavy.
