—the global consumption of aggregate is very high due to the extensive use of concrete. In particular, the
demand of aggregate is quite high in developing countries due to rapid infrastructural growth. The shortage of
aggregate and steep rise in its cost. So, overall project cost of construction is also increase. These factors have resulted
in finding an alternate source of material for aggregate in the construction field. In other side the ceramic and marble
industries have problem of dumping waste generated from production. An attempt has been made to find the suitability of
the possible substitute for ceramic wastes as conventional coarse aggregate and marble waste as fine aggregate with
0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% and grade is M25, M30 and M35 with curing period of 7and 28 days. The compressive,
flexural and split tensile strength of concrete with ceramic and marble waste is determine and compare them with
conventional concrete.
