Abstract

The construction industry relies heavily on large quantities of natural aggregates and cement to facilitate the completion of new projects and the maintenance of existing buildings and infrastructure. The construction sector is experiencing a shift towards sustainability, motivated by the imperative to reduce environmental harm and preserve resources. As part of this shift, the use of recycled materials has gained prominence, offering opportunities to reduce waste and promote circular economy principles. This paper examines the utilization of recycled waste glass and steel as sustainable construction materials, examining their environmental benefits, practical applications, and challenges. Using recycled steel and glass to make sustainable building materials is a great way to encourage a circular economy and lessen the negative environmental effects of the construction sector.

Keywords: Recycled glass, recycled steel, construction materials, glass fine particles, cement
