This paper for the first time investigates the workability, compressive and tensile strength of concrete containing Fly Ash, Rice Husk Ash and Waste Glass Powder. Seventy six cube specimen (150  150  150 mm were cast with different composition of Fly Ash, Rice Husk Ash ,Waste Glass Powder and steel fibers. The cubes were tested for axial compression and tensile tests. The research also investigated the effect of curing regime on the compressive and tensile strength of concrete cube specimen. The results revealed that the addition of 15 % Rice Husk Ash and 39% Fly Ash increased the workability of 25 % as compared to the controlled concrete. The sample containing 10 % Rice Husk Ash, 10% Waste Glass Powder and 39% micro silica produced worst workability as it decreased the workability up to 5 % of controlled concrete. The results for axial compressive strength shows that the addition of 15% Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and 39% of Fly Ash (FA) in concrete leads to the improvement of compressive strength by 14%. The sample containing replacement of 10% Rice Husk Ash (RHA), 10% waste glass powder (WGP) and 39 % of micro silica (MS) in concrete leads to the improvement by 53.9 for compressive. The replacement  of 10% Rice Husk Ash (RHA), 10% waste glass powder (WGP ), 39 % of micro silica (MS) 3% steel fiber in concrete leads to the improvement by 37% for compressive strength. It was observed from the results of tensile strength that the samples containing 15% Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and 39 % of Fly Ash (FA) increased the tensile strength by 24% as compared to the controlled concrete. The sample containing replacement of 10% Rice Husk Ash (RHA), 10% waste glass powder (WGP) and 39 % of micro silica (MS) in concrete leads to an increase of 20% as compared to the controlled ones. Also, the replacement of 10% Rice Husk Ash (RHA), 10% waste glass powder (WGP), 39 % of micro silica (MS) 3% steel fiber increased the tensile strength by 40 % as compared to the controlled concrete sample. Finally, it was concluded that the replacement of 10% RHA, 39% micro Silica, 10% WG in concrete was found to be superior for increasing the mechanical properties of concrete.

This experiment was conducted to determine the utility of substituting cement with the recycled glass powder (RGP) in mortar mixtures. A total of 21 mortar mixtures were produced using various RGP (FG) ratios (CG), and fly ash (FA) powders. The mortar mixtures were used to prepare cubes which were tested for 7-and 28-day compressive strength. The substitution of cement with FG and CG in mortar resulted in reduced 7-and 28-day compressive strength values. However, the amount and type of RGP substituted for cement plays a crucial role in the determination of mortar strength. Above contraction in compressive strength was observed at an initial maturity than at the final maturity. Further, replacement of cement with Fly Ash showed increase in compressive strength up to certain content. More research and testing for the optimal percentage and size of waste glass powder that can be used is required in flowable fill.

The effect of hydrothermal activation indifferent temperature and pressure conditions on the pozzolanic activity of waste glass powder was discussed. The waste glass powder was treated at 108°C, 0.15MPa, 116°C, 0.18MPa and 121°C, 0.2MPa for 2h in an autoclave respectively after milling to 4215cm2/g. Mortar was made with untreated and hydrothermal activated waste glass power replacement of cement at 20% respectively, then tested for compressive strength at 3, 7, 14 , 28 and 90 days. Results showed that compressive strength of cement mortar had varying degrees of decline when replacing cement with untreated waste glass powder, comparing to the control one. Decline amplitude was large at early age and small at late age. Activity of waste glass powder was significantly improved after hydrothermal treatment. Compressive strength of mortar improved as temperature and pressure elevated, obtaining optimal strength at 121°C, 0.2MPa. Compressive strength of mortar with hydrothermal activated glass powder was higher than that with untreated glass powder at all age with 20% cement replacement. Compressive strength increased 5.3% ~ 13.6% at 3 d, 6.8%~9.7% at 28 d, 9.7% ~ 17.7% at 90 d. The essence of hydrothermal activation was the corrosion of water in the glass.

In this work, waste glass powder from broken windows and plastic fibers from waste polyethylene terephthalate bottles are utilized to produce an economical self-compact concrete. Fresh properties (slump flow diameter, slump Flow T50, V. Funnel, L–Box), mechanical properties (Compressive strength and Flexural strength) and impact resistance of self-compact concrete are investigated. 15% waste glass powder as a partial replacement of cement with five percentages of polyethylene terephthalate plastic waste were adopted: 0% (reference), 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, 1.25% and 1.5% by volume. It seems that the flow ability of self-compact concrete decreases with the increasing of the amount of plastic fibers. The compressive strength was increased slightly with plastic fiber content up to (0.75%), about 4.6% For more than (0.75%) plastic fiber. The compressive strength began to decrease about 15.2%. The results showed an improvement in flexural strength and an impact on the resistance in all tested specimens’ content of the plastic fibers, especially at (1.5%) fibers.

This research mainly focused on the properties of decorative white cement tiles which made from waste glass and white cement. The ratio of waste glass powder and white cement were studied at 10 : 90, 15 : 85, 20 : 80, 30 : 70, 40 : 60, 50 : 50, 60 : 40 and 70 : 30 by using water content at 30 %wt. All components were mixed and cast into the mould. Decorative white cement tiles were curing at 14, 21 and 28 days. In order to characterize physical and mechanical properties, all tiles were measured density, water absorption and compressive strength. According to the results, it can be obviously seen that density increased and water absorption decreased with increasing waste glass powder content. The highest compressive strength of around 36.5 MPa was found at 20 %wt of waste glass powder. However, compressive strength decreased with increasing waste glass powder over 20 %wt (waste glass powder 20: white cement 80). It was found that the lowest compressive strength of around 30.58 MPa was found at 70 %wt of waste glass powder. Curing time also affected properties as it was found that increasing curing time to 28 days resulted in increasing of density and compressive strength. In order to study how long does essential oil last on decorative white cement tiles, the orange essential oil at 1, 5 and 10 %wt were added into the white cement paste by using waste glass powder : white cement at 20 : 80 with 30 %wt of water. Decorative white cement tiles were smelled by 30 people every morning for 30 days and it can be found that 10 %wt of orange essential oil last longest on the decorative white cement tiles with 22 days.
