摘要

The idea behind this work is to recycle the generated wastes in the form of particularly plastic, rubber, or electronic wastes for the manufacturing of concrete. The use of these wastes for the manufacturing of concrete is proposed in this project that will benefit the whole ecosystem, whether it is land or marine ecosystem. In this paper, a M20 grade of concrete is manufactured with a water-cement ratio of 50%. The fine aggregate is replaced by plastic, rubber, and electronic waste at 5, 10, 15, 20 25, and 30% by weight. Tests are performed on the specimens after 7, 14, and 28 days of curing. Cubes, beams, and cylinders are fabricated to assess factors such as workability, compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength. The results of different wastes used in concrete in different proportions are compared with normal concrete. Concrete made from waste is used in the construction field. This type of concrete is used in buildings, road pavement, and thermoplastic walls that can avoid entering the heat into the room. Also, the waste material in concrete assists waste management.
