This book focuses on the utilization of wastes produced from plastic usage by industry and consumers, along with the partial to full replacement of conventional cement as a primary binder material in concrete. This book demonstrates how to use post-consumer waste plastics and industry wastes from thermal power stations, agro-industries, and metal industries with a scientific approach to conventional concrete. The primary aim is to demonstrate the methods to prepare a sustainable alternative construction material of concrete using waste materials.
Features:
- Illustrates making eco-friendly procedures of concrete construction popular by way of utilization of plastics and industrial wastes
- Covers all major aspects of plastic waste-based concrete from conception to execution
- Promotes alternative materials for sustainable construction
- Describes economic aspects of using eco-efficient concrete on a mass scale
- Includes experimental results with graphs
This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in civil engineering, construction materials, and concrete.
