Abstract

With increase in population and urbanization, demand of raw materials such as cement and aggregate has increased in the construction industries. Further it has been recognized that waste from construction &demolition sectors are of large volume and this volume is increasing every year. Utilization of demolished waste offers not only the solution of disposal problems but also helps to conserve natural resources for meeting increased demand of aggregates and save energy. This study deals with the fabrication of concrete paver blocks using construction and demolition (C&D) waste as a replacement of natural aggregates.
