Abstract
Concrete is a vital construction material. It consumes a high number of natural resources like water, sand, and stones. Due to the increase in human population, the demand for new construction is at its peak and increasing day by day. Due to this, we utilize many natural resources. Researchers and scientists are searching for different ways in which they can reduce the amount or find alternates for use of other materials in the manufacture industry. The use of waste materials is one of them. In this, research has been done by using Waste glass powder and Quartzite powder in concrete to find alternates or partial replacements for natural resources in concrete. It was found that the joined effective use of glass powder and quartzite powder in concrete permitted the substitution of up to 15% glass powder and 30% quartzite powder. Various effects of these materials on concrete are discussed like effects on strength Characteristics, and microstructure studies like X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). This study includes research and literature study from various journals paper and then the conclusion was made up.
