3. PREAMBLE TO THE DESCRIPTION : COMPLETE

The aim of our invention is to utilize the waste glass in construction industry and it is named as "Glasscrete Building Blocks". The construction waste glass is chosen for this work. The result shows that these building blocks gives high performance properties compared to conventional.blocks currently used in construction industry. Glasscrete building blocks give better strength, reduction in crack formation, high thermal also resistance to wear and tear. These innovative building blocks can be used for partition wall in buildings, alternative for refractory brick lining in chimneys, Pavement blocks in roads etc.,

4. DESCRIPTION

By proportioning all the constituents like fly ash, Silica fume and Glass powder as a partial replacement of cement, it paves the way for tremendous progress in workability, Compactibility Green Strength, Load carrying capacity and reduction of aggregate content. These products must exhibit not only sufficient strength, density and exact dimensional accuracy, but also high resistance to abrasion and absorption. Innovative concrete mass products meet demands of the future. These products reduce pollution and increase the efficiency in the utilization of industrial waste.

5. CLAIMS I/We claim

1. Glasscrete blocks gives good strength compared to conventional blocks

2. Glasscrete Building blocks used as permanent and semi-permanent partitioning of building interiors into rooms, hallways etc.,

3. Glasscrete Building blocks can be used in seismic prone areas due to high impact and flexural resistance.

4. Glasscrete Building blocks used in chemical pipes lining to resist the abrasion.

5. Glasscrete Building blocks used as pavement blocks in roads.

6. Glasscrete Building blocks used in construction of retailing wall

7. Glasscrete blocks used as barriers in roads.

8. Glasscrete blocks used in water resistant structures.
