In order to reduce the amount of waste that is disposed of in landfills, which is what most people do for both environmental preservation and economic reasons, studies, research, and experiments are being conducted to find answers.

all around the world. While new ones are being built utilising cutting-edge and modern designs, older ones are being demolished or repaired. When performing construction, repair, or demolition, developers, contractors, and builders must consider where to deposit the garbage. Concrete recycling is a method that is gaining popularity that involves removing the debris from demolished concrete structures. In today's era of heightened ecological consciousness, stricter environmental restrictions, and the drive to keep building costs as low as possible, recycling has emerged as a popular choice due to its many advantages. Previously, concrete waste was regularly transported to landfills for disposal. In this research, we aim to create an IS-compliant mortar mix using concrete debris. This will aid the construction industry in protecting the environment, convince the government to find solutions for proper waste disposal in landfills and protect the environment, and educate contractors and developers on how to enhance construction industry methods and services by utilizing recycled concrete debris. This project's objectives include designing a concrete mix for M20 grade using demolition debris and a superplasticizer, designing a concrete mix for M25 grade using demolition debris and a superplasticizer, testing the aforementioned concrete mixes' slump cone performance and compressive strength, and performing various tests on recycled aggregate.

2. OBJECTIVE The project's objectives are as follows: I Using an additive and concrete shards from a demolition site, develop a mix design for M20 grade concrete (superplasticizer) ii) Using an additive and concrete shards from a demolition site, develop a mix design for M25 grade concrete (superplasticizer) iii) Apply the Slump Cone Test to the previously described concrete mixture. iv) To test the compression strength of the aforementioned concrete mix. v) To conduct several experiments on both recycled and natural aggregates and evaluate the outcomes. vi) Determine whether recycling concrete is worthwhile based on the results of the tests indicated above.

1. INTRODUCTION

The concrete aggregate collected from building sites is processed using a crusher unit. Only clean concrete that is devoid of trash, wood, paper, and other debris is accepted by crushing facilities. Rebar and other metals that can be melted down and reused after being separated using magnets and other sorting equipment are acceptable. By size, the remaining aggregate pieces are arranged. Larger pieces might be put through the crusher once more. After crushing, additional particulates are removed using a variety of techniques, such as water flotation and hand picking.

The global building industry's expansion is getting better with time. Construction of roads, bridges, and other constructions, both residential and non-residential, is ongoing. Similar to many other countries, India is seeing a sharp rise in the need for new structures. Older buildings are either renovated or replaced with cutting-edge, modern constructions. The non-hazardous, uncontaminated things that result are referred to as debris. These include roofing, shingles, steel plates, glass, metal, wall coverings, drywall, plumbing fixtures, insulation, electrical cables, asphalt, bricks, and other building materials. These materials can be separated and recovered before being disposed of. When performing construction, repair, or demolition, developers,
