The dumping of wastes comprises as one of the major worldwide environmental problems as these wastes deliver the environment unfriendly. The growing demand for waste utilization has made solid wastes and demolition waste an essential composition of this paper. The possibility of reduction of the construction expenditure provides a strong reason for use of this waste.This paper involves the usage of structural and demolition waste as an important ingredient. Thesewastes were checked for its physical characterization such as compressive strength and water absorption percentage.
