Investigates waste glass powder's effect on concrete performance, suggesting sustainable construction benefits.

The research aims to explore the effects of waste glass powder of varying sizes used as a partial cement replacement in concrete.
Conducted experiments on concrete mixes including various WGP percentages (5-20%)
Performed tests for slump, density, water absorption, and compressive strength
Utilized two particle sizes of glass powder (75 µm and 300 µm)
Increased WGP improved slump values and reduced density
Enhanced water absorption reduction with higher WGP content
15% WGP mix achieved 2.5% higher compressive strength at 28 days compared to control
