3. ABSTRACT
The reduction in natural resources requires a
substitute for those materials.
In the present investigation, concrete made of crushed
spent fire bricks replacing fine aggregates are used to
study the strength parameters of M30 grade of
concrete.
Fine aggregates was replaced with crushed spent fire
bricks in proportions and cement can be replaced by
glass powder .
This paper recommends that glass powder and
crushed spent fire bricks can be used as an
alternative construction material to cement and sand
in concrete.

4. INTRODUCTION
 Concrete is most widely used construction material
which can be mould into different shapes.
 The concrete is made with the natural resources as
Cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates, water.
Those natural resources should be replaced by the
artificial resources in order to replace the natural
resources of cement in concrete many materials such
as glass powder, brick chips, waste materials , etc.
 Such materials are dumped in land fill which
becomes the environmental problem.

5. AIM OF THE WORK
The main aim of this work is to ascertain
the performance of concretes with
replacing of cement by glass Powder and
sand by Crushed spent fire bricks

6. SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of this dissertation was carried out
to study the parameters which influence the
compressive strength, split tensile strength
and
flexural strength of the concrete mix M30 by
replacing fine aggregate with crushed spent
fire brick powder, and cement is replaced by
glass powder.

7. LITERATURE REVIEW
Shruthi. S
concluded that there is improvement in
compressive strength because of continuous
increase of waste glass powder. The strength
increases with addition of waste glass powder at
5%, 10% 15% and after that declines at 20%
and 25% gradually, flexural strength of concrete
mix M30 by fractional supplanting of cement with
waste glass powder were tested at 28 and 56
days,

WERE STUDIED THE REPLACEMENT OF
CEMENT BY WASTE GLASS POWDER BY
VOLUME OF CEMENT AND ITS EFFECTS ON
COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH, SPLIT TENSILE
STRENGTH, WORKABILITY, FLEXURAL
STRENGTH ARE DETERMINED. IT IS FOUND
THAT THE COMPRESSIVE, FLEXURAL AND
SPLIT TENSILE STRENGTHS OF CONCRETE
RAISE INITIALLY AS THE REPLACEMENT
PERCENTAGE OF CEMENT BY GLASS
POWDER INCREASES AND BECOME
MAXIMUM AT ABOUT 20% AND LATER
DECREASE.

9. MOHAMMAD ABDUR RASHID (2012),
INVESTIGATED ABOUT THE EFFECT OF REPLACING
NATURAL COARSE AGGREGATE BY BRICK AGGREGATE
ON THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE. THE PROPERTIES
OF CONCRETE OBTAINED REPLACING STONE
AGGREGATE AS PARTIALLY OR FULLY BY CRUSHED
CLAY BRICKS. THE REDUCTION IN TENSILE STRENGTH
OF MIXED AGGREGATE CONCRETE IS FOUND TO BE
LESS SIGNIFICANT UP TO 50% REPLACEMENT OF STONE
AGGREGATE BY BRICK AGGREGATE.

10. TIWARI DARSHITA 2014,
AS PER IS-10262, CUBES IS FORMED OF GRADE
FOR M20, M25, AND M30. THE CUBES WERE CRUSHED
IN THE LABS AND FOLLOW THE CRITERIA OF IS
CODE OF 1343. THE CRUSHING STRENGTH IS MEASURE
FOR 3DAYS, 7DAYS, AND 28 DAYS. AND OBSERVED
THAT FOR M20 GRADE IN WHICH SAND IS PARTIALLY
REPLACED BY THE BRICK POWDER. WHEN ADDED
10% BRICK POWDER THE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH IS
DECREASES AND WHEN ADDED 20% BRICK POWDER
THE STRENGTH IS INCREASED. IF INCREASED THE
BRICK POWDER MORE THAN 20% THEN DECREASE
THE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF M20 GRADE
CONCRETE.

12. STUDY ON MATERIALS
GENERAL
The ingredients of concrete consist of Cement,fine
aggregate, coarse aggregate and water. In this
work we used waste glass powder as a partial
replacement for cement and it act as a filler
material in concrete. Also fine aggregates partially
replaced by crushed spent fire bricks which have
changed its mechanical properties while
manufacturing of fire bricks.

13. GLASS POWDER
GLASS IS AN IDEAL MATERIAL FOR RECYCLING. THE
GLASS POWDER IS A POZZOLANIC MATERIAL. THE GLASS
POWDER IS INCREASE THE STRENGTH AND DURABILITY OF
CONCRETE WHEN USING SUITABLE PERCENTAGE.

17. CONCLUSION
 The workability of concrete increases with replacement
of glass powder by cement and when fine aggregate
replaced with crushed spent fire bricks, it gets
decreased.
 By studying literatures it has been proved that the
replaced materials can be used as the addition to the
cement and aggregate in concrete.
 Addition of the glass powder and crushed spent fire bricks
in concrete enhances the flexural ability of the concrete.
