This study investigates and reports on the usage of low density poly ethylene (LDPE) granules inplace of coarse aggregate while constructing concrete cubes and cylinders. Concrete cubes andcylinders made of LDPE were hand cast, and test concrete's strength was then empirically assessed interms of split tension and compression. It has been discovered that the compression and split tensionstrengths of plastic-replaced concrete can be on par with those of ordinary concrete.The current study focuses on concrete mixes containing LDPE granules (0, 10, 20, and 30) usedin place of some of the coarse aggregate to reduce the dead weight of the building. To determine thestrength parameter, this mixture was compressed and divided tensioned into cubes and cylinders.Downloads
