Lecture 8 - Sustainable Construction Materials - Plastic Waste

Plastic Waste as a Sustainable Construction Material | Civil Engineering Plastic waste is a major environmental challenge due to its non-biodegradable nature. This lecture explains how plastic waste can be responsibly used in construction, with a clear focus on roads and non-structural concrete. 📌 Key focus of the lecture: • Sources and quantity of plastic waste (India context) • Relevant IS codes and IRC/MoRTH provisions • Physical and chemical properties of plastic waste • Role of plastic in concrete and bituminous roads • Advantages, limitations, and application boundaries • Sustainability benefits through engineering judgment 👉 Plastic waste is not a structural replacement material. Its effectiveness depends on type, size, dosage, and method of use. Plastic waste can be used as a sustainable modifier in roads and non-structural concrete, provided proper mix design and performance checks are ensured. 👷‍♂️ Who Should Watch ✔ Civil Engineering students (Diploma / B.Tech / M.Tech) ✔ Site engineers & QA/QC engineers ✔ Structural designers ✔ Faculty & researchers ✔ Professionals interested in green and durable concrete 👉 If you find this video useful, like, share, and subscribe to the channel for more technical content on sustainable and advanced construction materials. #PlasticWaste #SustainableConstruction #ConstructionMaterials #CivilEngineering #PlasticRoads #EngineeringEducation #ISCodes #PlasticRoads #GreenConcrete #SustainableMaterials #ConcreteTechnology #InfrastructureDevelopment
