The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of addition of glass powder and glass fibre on the various characteristics of concrete. Glass is one of the admixtures which is used many forms in everyday life. In shops, broken glass sheets &flat solid cuttings square measure move to waste, that aren't recycled at the present and typically delivered to landfills for disposal. This project examines the effect of replacement of fine aggregates with glass powder and glass fibres on the mechanical properties of concrete and Fine aggregates were replaced by waste glass powder as 0-15% and glass fibres as 0 - 3% by weight for M50 mix then the Compressive strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity at 7 to 28 days of age were compared with those of concrete made with natural fine aggregates. It has been observed that glass fibre reinforced concrete has greater strength than glass powder mixed concrete, and that the strength of mixes increases significantly when glass fibre is used. Using glass powder in concrete is an intriguing option for saving money on waste disposal sites while also contributing to a greener environment.
