Experimental investigation on cement with

waste glass powder in pervious concrete
Anjana Pradeep, Anirudh A, Muhammad Sahil PC, Vivek PV, Dr.A. Thirumurgan M.E., Ph.D, MISTE.,MIE, FIV.

Abstract— Pervious concrete (no fine concrete) is a concrete containing little or no fine aggregate, it consists of course aggregate and ce-
ment paste. It seems pervious concrete would be a natural choice for use in structural appilications in this age of ‘green buliding’. It consumes less raw
material than the normal concrete (no sand), it provides superior insulation values when used in walls, and through the direct drainage of rainwater, it
helps recharge groundwater in pavement appilcations.
This project discuss about the pervious concrete in which the cement is partially replaced by the waste glass powder. Glass powder is one of
the most active research areas that encompass a number of disciplines including civil engineering and construction materials. Waste glass locally avail-
able and it has been collected and made into glass powder. The materials and possible mix proportions, properties such as compressive strength, flex-
ural strength, shrinkage, and permeability with initial tests are done.

Index Terms— Compressive strength, Flexural strength, Glass powder, low cost, opc cement, Pervious concrete, water cement ratio.

1 INTRODUCTION
Perviou s concrete is a u niqu e and effective solu -
tion to red u ce the ru noff from paved areas and
recharging the grou nd w ater. Perviou s concrete
can u proot storm w ater m ore rapid ly than con-
ventional concrete. It is d irectly recharging the
grou nd w ater so it elim inates the need of reten-
tion pond , sw ales and storm w ater m anagem ent
d evices. It is also elim inate costly storm w ater
d etention vau lts and pip ing system s. Thu s red u ce
constru ction expenses, safety issu es and m ainte-
nance cost. The w aste m anagem ent problem has
alread y becom e severe in the w orld . The problem
is com pou nd ed by the rapid ly increasing
am ou nts of ind u strial w astes of a com plex natu re
and com position. In the context of low availabil-
ity of non-renew able energy resou rces cou pled
w ith the requ irem ents of large qu antities of ener-
gy for bu ild ing m aterials like cem ent, the im -
portance of u sing ind u strial w aste cannot be u n-
d erestim ated . Many research organizations are
d oing extensive w ork on w aste m aterials con-
cerning the viability and environm ental su itabil-
ity. Therefore, the m ain objective of this stu d y is
to u se w aste glass p ow d er m aterials to d evelop a
perviou s concrete m ixtu re proportion and to im -
prove the com pressive strength and flexu ral
strength of perviou s concrete. Before ad d ing glass
pow d er in the concrete it has to be pow d ered to
requ ired size.
In this research stu d y the (OPC) cem ent
has been replaced by glass w aste pow d er accord -
ingly in the range of 10% and 20% by w eight of
cem ent for 0.35 w ater/ cem ent ratio. The com -

w as carried ou t for 7, 14 and 28 d ays to m easu re
the com pressive strength and flexu ral strength of
concrete. So the aim of the investigation is to
stu d y the behavior of perviou s concrete w hile
replacing the w aste glass p ow d er w ith d ifferent
proportions in concrete. Test resu lts have reflect-
ed , the com pressive strength and flexu ral

2 OBJECTIVE
The m ain objective of this investigation is to d e-
velop a strong and d u rable p erviou s cem ent con-
crete (PCC) m ix u sing d ifferent types of fine ag-
gregates w ith varying the qu antity of fine aggre-
gates. In ad d ition, it is also aim ed to com pare the
properties of these PCC m ixes. In the present in-
vestigation, tw o types of fine aggregates are u sed
viz., Cru shed Stone (CS) and River Sand (RS) are
u sed . The percentage of fine aggregates u sed in
PCC m ix is 15 per cent. The properties of PCC
m ixes investigated are com pressive strength,
flexu ral strength, abrasion resistance, perm eabil-
ity, and clogging p otential. The objectives of the
w ork w ou ld be:
(i) To d eterm ine the d u rability, properties of per-
m eable concrete.
(ii) To d eterm ine the im p act resistant of perm ea-
ble concrete pavem ent.
