The present experimental investigation examines the effect of waste glass, fly ash as partial replacement to cement and dust as partial replacement to fine aggregate on the various properties of pavement block. Investigation is done on M30 mix using fly ash as partial replacement to cement in various percentage by weight of cement such as 25 and 50, also waste glass and dust as partial replacement to fine aggregate. The paving blocks face different problems such as the rutting failure, uneven

Principal forms of pavement damage are traffic-induced ruts and cracking, lipping and damage to pavers caused by container stacking. In this work, to overcome this problems the properties of the paving block are enhanced by using fly ash, waste glass, optimum dose of plasticizer, replacement of fine aggregate by dust etc.
