EFFECT AND OPTIMIZATION OF PLASTIC WASTE FOR ENHANCING MECHANICAL PARAMETERS OF CONCRETE
Keywords:
Concrete, Waste plastic, Plastic aggregate, Reuse, Light weightAbstract
It is aimed to research the effects of plastic waste on the mechanical and durability parameter of concrete. Plastic was used as a part of the filling materials to obtain polymer concrete in this study. Filling material ratio has been determined as 5–95%, 10–90%, 15–85% and 20–80%, plastic/filling material ratio has been decided to be 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%. 28-Day of axial compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strength values of the test samples will be evaluated.
