Abstract

Plastic solid waste generation increases per annum with the present current consumption habit prevalent within the society nowadays. The improper disposal of plastic has been a serious concern to the environment because it isn't easily degradable. the difficulty of environmental pollution caused By Polyethelene Terephthalates (PET) has been extensively discussed and therefore the best solution proposed is recycling. Therefore, one among the potential means to the matter is to recycle Polyethelene Terephthalates (PET) within the housing industry as aggregate in concrete. the target of this research is to work out the compressive strength and therefore the optimum percentage of recycled Polyethylene Terephthalates (PET) aggregates in ordinary concrete. This project deals with the chances of using the waste PET bottles because the partial replacement of aggregate in concrete with 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% PET bottle aggregates for fine aggregate were produced and compared agains control mix.
