Abstract

Concrete prepared using ceramic waste as aggregate is comparable to conventional concrete prepared using HBG metal. Compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity of concrete with ceramic waste aggregate were studied. Compressive strength of the concrete with ceramic waste aggregate was compared to conventional concrete. Regression equations are proposed for predicting properties of concrete with ceramic waste aggregate
