Aim of this paper is to study the suitability of ceramic tiles waste as fine aggregate in concrete making. The
concrete control specimens were cast using Recycled coarse aggregates and natural River sand as fine aggregates.
Then the river sand was replaced with Ceramic waste in 15, 30, 45, 60 and 100 percentages. The Cubes, Cylinders and
Prisms were cast and tested to ultimate load to know the ultimate Compressive strength, Ultimate Split Tensile strength
and Ultimate flexural strength. It was observed from the experimental results that ceramic waste can be used for in
concrete making.
