Highlights
Lightweight concrete can be defined as a type of concrete which includes an expanding agent in that it increases the volume of the mixture while giving additional qualities such as lessened dead weight
The term lightweight concrete itself describes a wide range of special aggregate bases
The experimental setup has been done to analyze the effects of structural lightweight concrete seismic behavior in High - rise building by framing out simulation model in STAAD.Pro software tool
Summary
Abstract- The rapid industrialization and urbanization in our country has resulted in significant rise in the quantity of plastic waste. Most of polymer wastes is abandoned and not recycled. It leads to serious problems of wastage of natural resources and environmental pollution. Plastics and rubber belong to petrochemical compounds and are not biodegradable. This problem can be reduced by using plastic waste in the production of concrete. It helps in reducing concrete cost, land-fill cost, energy saving and protection of environment from pollution. Mix design using IS Code method is done and cubes, beams and cylinders are casted with and without plastics and tests on concrete like slump test.
