Experimental study on the performance of concrete mix with paper waste, waste plastic, quarry dust, and fly ash

In recent years, concrete in the construction industry has rapidly increased worldwide, including developing countries like India. The raw materials required to produce such a quantity require huge depletion of natural resources. On the other hand, disposal of paper waste, fly ash, and plastic waste...
