Abstract
Use of hazardous industrial wastes in concrete-making will lead to greener environment. In ceramic industry about 30% production goes as waste, which is not recycled at present. In this study an attempt has been made to find the suitability of the ceramic industrial wastes as a possible substitute for conventional crushed stone coarse aggregates. The behaviour of ceramic waste aggregate is studied in two states, fresh state and hardened state. In fresh state, workability studies are studied with slump cone test and compaction factor test and in hardened state, strength of the CWA is studied with compression test, tensile strength and flexural strength are found for ceramic waste when adding in different percentage. The obtained results are compared with M25 grade conventional concrete.
