Abstract

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the Compressive strength of pavement quality concrete (PQC) reinforced by replacing coarse aggregate with E-waste and Rice Husk Ash with cement in concrete. Materials and Methods: This study used Ordinary Portland Cement that met Indian Standards as the main materials, with 36 samples divided into two groups of 18 each for testing. The Compressive strength was tested by comparing the ratio of coarse aggregate of 90% of weight and 10% of e-waste of size 12-20mm and with OPC grade of cement 95 % and RHA of 5 % (N=18 samples) with Conventional concrete (N=18 samples) through statistical analysis using G-power software with a power of 0.8 and a 95% confidence interval.
