construction & demolition wastes are increasing day-by-day. Researchers and governments of many countries trying to find out best solution to deal with this situation. Ceramic waste and granite waste from construction industry needed effective utilization. Many researchers have found its use for making concrete with partially or fully replacement of aggregates. In this study, we found out the optimum level of replacement of such wastes by studying various previous researches and reached to conduct a detailed experimental investigation using Indian Standards. In the proposed experimental investigation, the ceramic & granite waste will be used as coarse aggregate replacement up to 30% as individual or in combination of both to study their effect on M40 grade concrete for properties such as compressive, splitting, and flexural strength at 7 & 28 days.

Recycled concrete aggregates were used as coarse aggregates in concrete at rates of 30%, 60%, and 100% by K. Usha Nandhini, S. Jayakumari, and S. Kothandaraman (2017) to evaluate its mechanical and structural qualities. A watercement ratio of 0.52 and 0.39 were used to create two sets of mixes with respective strengths of 20 MPa and 40 MPa. We examined the structural behaviour as well as the compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength, and young's modulus. The findings indicate that recycled concrete aggregate increased the compressive strength of concrete over ordinary concrete. Higher strength of 12% for M20 concrete and 15% for M40 grade concrete were obtained by replacing the aggregate with recycled concrete up to 60%. Full replacement of recycled concrete aggregate produced concrete that was stronger than conventional concrete for M20 and M40 grade [8].

1. Introduction

Waste glass was incorporated into concrete in a 2019 study by T. S. Thulasidhar Naidu, M. V. Deepthi, Shrihari K. Naik, and S. D. Anitha Kumari. Fly ash and GGBS were used to replace roughly 30% of the cement, while 0 to 25% of the fine aggregate was made up of recycled glass. Tests for flexural strength, split tensile strength, and compressive strength were conducted. According to research, 15% of leftover glass is the ideal amount to substitute fine aggregate in concrete [9].

With a size of $1 trillion by 2025, India is now the thirdlargest construction market in the world, behind the United States, China, and Japan (FE Bureau 2016). [1]. The construction industry makes up 10% of India's GDP and is expanding at a rate of roughly 9%, which is higher than the global average of 5.5% [2]. Building construction and building destruction have both grown as a result of growing urbanization and rising infrastructural activity. Thus, this led to an increase in the demand for concrete and the production of construction and demolition debris [3]. Significant environmental harm is being caused by the widespread depletion of natural aggregates and there is rise in building and demolition waste which is going to landfilling [4]. The necessity for sustainable and financially viable structural concrete has drawn the attention of both researchers and various construction businesses as a result of the ever-increasing demand for concrete [5]. Therefore, using alternative aggregates is a logical step towards resolving a portion of the depletion of natural aggregates; alternative aggregate produced from waste materials would seem to be an even more logical option [6].

2. Literature Review

Recycled tyre rubber was used to a Portland cement concrete mix by Zaher K. Khatib and Fouad M. Bayomy in 1999. In mixes, they employed two different types of tyre rubber: fine crumb rubber and coarse tyre chips. According to ASTM standards, the compressive and flexural strength of mixtures was evaluated. According to the findings, the amount of rubber in the aggregate should not be more than 20%. They came to the further conclusion that rubberized concrete mixtures would be appropriate for non-structural uses including lightweight concrete walls, building facades, and architectural components. Additionally, they might be utilized as cement aggregate bases for flexible pavements [10].

Numerous industrial waste materials, including class F type ash, waste foundry sand, copper slag, imperial smelting

Crushed stone dust was examined by Sarvesh P.S. Rajput in cement concrete at rates of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%.
