Cement is one of the most commonly used material globally. Although it has many advantages in the construction industry, it is one of the main sources of carbon di oxide emissions all over the world. There have been many researches and experiments to reduce the use of cement and its production by replacing using alternative building materials. These alternative building materials include different types of mineral admixtures. Fly ash is one of such mineral admixtures which improves the quality of concrete by replacing cement. On the other hand, glass powder is a waste product obtained during polishing of glass which is dumped as landfill. However, from the literature review, it is observed that glass powder has high content of silica with pozzolanic properties. The present work shows experimental investigation to determine properties of fly ash and glass powder as pozzolana as per IS1727: 1967 and IS 3812(part 1): 2013. Thus, exploring the advantages and disadvantages of Glass powder over Fly ash as mineral admixture. In the current study, glass powder as shown promising result as mineral admixture. Both glass powder and fly ash have considerable compressive strength.
