India faces major challenges associated with waste generation due to rapid industrialization, urbanization, population growth, and this impacts on the environment and public health. In the recent era, there has been a growing trend in the utilization of crushed ceramic waste as an alternative aggregate for concrete especially in the construction industry. A huge quantity of ceramic waste is generated during processing, transportation and handling and using the said waste as aggregate in concrete production could prove as an emerging solution to maintain the environment and simultaneously increasing appreciably the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength as well as properties of concrete like resistance to the chemical attack such as sulphate attack and chloride attack. The ceramic waste aggregate (both fine & coarse) is hard and durable material than the conventional aggregates. It has good stability, thermal resistance, and mechanical & durability properties.
