Implication

This research investigates using windshield waste to enhance concrete properties, indicating eco-friendly solutions.

Key Points

  • To explore the feasibility of using automotive windshield waste as a substitute for fine aggregates in cement composites.
  • Prepared eleven self-compacting sand concrete (SCSC) mixtures with constant cement and BFS content.
  • Kept water-to-powder ratio constant at 0.44.
  • Substituted natural sand with windshield waste aggregates (WGA) ranging from 10% to 100% in volume.
  • SCSC with 20% WGA showed 80% higher compressive strength compared to reference concrete.
  • Flexural strength improved by 50% with 20% WGA substitution.
  • Concrete with up to 100% WGA achieved compressive strengths greater than 80 MPa.
  • Significant reductions in water absorption and porosity noted, indicating improved durability.
