To Improve Mechanical Properties of Concrete Paver Blocks

Abstract

In India total quantum of waste from construction industry is estimated to be between 12 to14 million tonnes per annum out of which 7 to 8 tonnes are concrete and brick waste. Construction, demolition, innovation generated large amount of concrete waste. This waste is either dumped or it is delivered towards landfill. This concrete waste can be qualitatively reused for manufacturing of various concrete blocks. In this report , we represent the concept of sustainable use of concrete waste in concrete which can be used in manufacturing of interlocking paver blocks , After crushing , this concrete waste can be used as a replacement of coarse and fine aggregate in one stage as half replacement in paver block by considering is specification. In this project by considering suitable material, size, shape, mix design, etc. and by accepting Specific casting methodology and by performing various specific tests, we are going to cast interlocking paver blocks
