Abstract

The electronics sector has been experiencing fast expansion, owing to constant technological advancements and the introduction of new technologies to the market. As a result, e-plastic waste has become one of the world’s fastest growing solid wastes. This paper outlines the experimental work carried for the partial replacement of e-plastic in volumes of 5%,10%,15% and 20% as coarse aggregates. On hardened concrete, strength tests were performed. The results reveal that using e-plastic waste as coarse aggregates results in concrete that is substantially more workable and less dense. This research presents a costeffective, environmentally acceptable, and efficient disposal solution for e-plastic waste, which can be used as a partial replacement for coarse aggregates in concrete. Researchers have recently begun to examine an alternate source of aggregate in concrete by employing e-plastic waste as a building material, which increases the water retention characteristic of new mortar while lowering the bulk density of hardened mortar.
