A large quantity of ceramic materials changes into wastage during processing, transporting and fixing due to its brittle nature. Therefore, using these wastes in concrete production could be an effective measure in maintaining the environment and improving the properties of concrete. The increasing demand of construction material and degradation of environment, there is need to explore alternative construction material from industrial as well as household waste and recyclable materials. In this project control concrete is cast for M25 grade and the partial replacement of waste ceramic tiles 0f 10%, 20%, 30% by weight of coarse aggregate. Glass fiber-reinforced concrete consists of high-strength glass fiber embedded in a cementitious matrix. The inclusion of fiber reinforcement in concrete, mortar and cement paste can enhance many of the engineering properties of the basic materials, such as fracture toughness, flexural strength. An experimental investigation of compressive strength will be undertaken by partial replacement of coarse aggregate by waste ceramic tiles and glass fiber.
