Strength and Durability Properties of Waste Glass Based Self Compacting Concrete: A Review

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) also uses a wide variety of resources, which makes it unsustainable. Currently, a lot of experts are concentrating on using valuable industrial or agricultural waste as the main raw material for the building industry. These wastes, on the other hand, are affordable and readily accessible everywhere, making them ideal for commercial use while also contributing to the reduction of environmental degradation. Waste glass (WG) is a kind of industrial waste that has the potential to be utilized in concrete. Many researchers are focused on utilizing WG in concrete and stated encouraging responses. However, the information is scattered, and no one can judge easily the benefits of WG which restrict its use. Therefore, a details review is required of WG as construction materials which provide an easy path for the reader. Furthermore, some researchers successfully conduct a review on WG as a concrete ingredient. However, according to the author's best knowledge, fewer studies focus on the utilization of WG in SCC. This review aims to deliver a concise summary of the already research carried out on WG as SCC ingredients to identify the benefits, mechanisms, and current researcher progress. Chemical compositions and physical properties of WG, strength properties, durability properties, and environmental benefits are the main aspects of this review. In addition, the review assesses future researcher guidelines for SCC with WG to improve its performance.
