Abstract
Shortage of post-consumer disposal waste has become a necessary issue and immediate attention is required. Waste materials such as broken or unused glass, marble dustetc. has the huge potential to be used in the civil engineering and landfills can be saved. The research was focused on the utilization of waste materials as glass and marble dust in place of proportion with cement and crushed unused glass in proportion to fine aggregates in mortar. There were two phases where phase 1 consists of cement mortar from replacement of waste marble dust and the optimum ratio of waste marble dust was carried out in respect to compressive strength and phase 2 utilized the optimum ratio of waste marble dust and the substitution of unused crushed glass in replacement of natural sand. Compressive strength, morphology and cost analysis has beenexperimented.
