Abstract

The aim of this project is to replace cement with plastic waste in paver block and to reduce the cost of paver blockcompared to that of conventionalconcrete paver blocks. At present nearly 56 lakhtones of plastic waste is produced in India per year. The degradation of plastic waste is also a very slow process. Hence the project is helpful in reducing plastic waste in a useful way. In this project we have used plastic waste in different proportions with quarry dust, coarse aggregate and ceramic waste. Plasticare rapidly growing segment of the municipal solid waste. Disposal of waste materials including waste plastic bags has become a serious problem.
