Waste glass as partial replacement for fine aggregate in mortar

Glass was one of the oldest man-made materials. It was a common product that can be found in variety of form. In Malaysia, less than 30% of the glass was recycle and causing solid waste impact to the environment. Research on using waste glass as aggregate has been attempted decades ago and recent re...

Waste glass as partial replacement for fine aggregate in mortar
description Glass was one of the oldest man-made materials. It was a common product that can be found in variety of form. In Malaysia, less than 30% of the glass was recycle and causing solid waste impact to the environment.

In this study, the effectiveness of waste glass used as fine aggregate in mortar was studied.
