Waste glass powder was used as secondary cementitious material towards production of recycled aggregate concrete with improved strength and durability attributes. Experimental investigation of the novel concept of using waste glass powder, as partial replacement for cement, to overcome the drawbacks of recycled aggregate and the resulting concrete showed that waste glass, when milled to micro-scale particle size, is estimated to undergo pozzolanic reactions with cement hydrates, forming secondary calcium silicate hydrate (C–S–H). These reactions bring about favourable changes in the structure of the hydrated cement paste and the interfacial transition zones in recycled aggregate concrete. In this paper has also attempted to provide concise information of strength of concrete using eight types of mixes containing waste glass powder and recycled aggregate under sulphate attack.
