Abstract

The need to increase the sustainability of the construction industry is leading to the search for alternative sources of raw materials. Liquid crystal display (LCD) screens have been used for many years and are also rapidly ageing as a result of fast development. Therefore, the use of waste from LCD screens is an interesting avenue for the construction industry. This paper presents a very practical study of the use of old LCD screen of ground material to replace various fine aggregates. Fifteen concrete mixes of different strength levels and with different amounts of LCD powder were prepared. These are C20, C25, and C35 grade concretes, all of which contain LCD powder in quantities ranging from 15% to 60%. Results of density, compressive strength, and tensile strength at 7 and 28 days after concreting. The results are correlated with the number of replacement components and are also correlated with each other. The data presented to improve our understanding of the practical application of LCD waste aggregate in concrete. The results show that the amount of LCD powder has a direct linear effect on the compressive strength and also a direct lognormal effect on the tensile strength of concrete.
