Abstract: Manufacturing processes, service industries and municipal solid wastes are the sources of production of numerous waste materials. Solid waste management is one of the major environmental concerns in the world. Waste utilization has become an attractive alternative to disposal because of the scarcity of space for land filling and due to its ever-increasing cost. The use of waste products in concrete not only makes it economical, but also helps in reducing disposal problems. Every year 200-400 tons of stone dust is generated by the stone cutting plants and is dumped as waste leading to serious environmental and dust pollution. So it is necessary to dispose the stone dust waste quickly and efficiently. One of the possible uses lies in the construction industry. We have used 0.2%, 0.4%,0.6%,0.8% 0f glass fibre 25%,50%,75%,100% of quarry dust.
