Experimental Study on Partial Replacement of Coarse Aggregate by Crown Caps
Keywords:
Waste Bottle Caps, Compression Test, Flexural Test, Split TensileAbstract
As we all know cement concrete is widely and commonly used in construction industry. All the materials required to make the concrete are extracted from the environment. The environmental resources are need to be used in control to protect the environment. There is excess amount of industrial waste that needs to treated so that it won’t cause any harm to the surrounding human race and the other environmental elements. Here we are trying to deal with the large amount of metal waste generated in the form of soft drink bottle caps. These caps are hard to biodegrade therefore these can be recycled or reused. The experiment initiated with 10% replacement of coarse aggregate with waste bottle caps. The size of bottle caps is 2.5cm (diameter) and 3mm projections. M30 grade mix is used with 0.42 water cement ratio. The mechanical properties are tested by carrying out the compression test, flexural test and split tensile test.
