Keywords:
Sustainable construction, GGBS, EPS beads, M25 concrete, Eco-friendly concrete.Abstract
In modern construction, concrete remains a fundamental material for structures ranging from residential buildings to high-rise developments. However, the extensive use of river sand as fine aggregate has led to environmental concerns, including resource depletion, water flow disruption, and ecological degradation.
