Abstract
Abstract: Growth in civil construction has increased the consumption of raw materials by the construction sector, resulting in chronic shortage of building materials and the associated environmental damage. In the last decade, construction industry has been conducting various researches on the utilization of easily available raw materials and use of plastic waste with concrete in construction since plastic waste is a waste which takes millions of years to decompose while its generation is increasing day by day. In this experimental research, light weight thermal resistant concrete block is developed using polyurethane plastic waste in concrete as it is one of the materials which can scope up with the shortage of building raw materials and can produce a light weight, thermal resistant, energy efficient and environmentally friendly concrete block. This study deals with the introduction to the polyurethane in concrete block and its experimental advantages compared to the normal concrete block
