Abstract

The aim of this work is to study the possible use of Marble waste in concrete production, which would reduce
both the environmental impact and the production cost. The industry Marble has major environmental problems due to
waste generation at different stages of mining and processing operation. Concrete is the most widely used construction
materials in civil engineering because of its high structural strength and stability. Marble waste can be used to produce
new products or can be use as admixtures so that resources are used more efficiently and the environment is protected
from waste deposits. A comparatively good strength is expected when natural resources are replaced by Marble waste in
concrete.
