Abstract
This study investigates the selection and addition of plastic waste materials as additives in cement concrete in order to improve the mechanical properties of cement concrete. This study examines the possibility of using plastic waste, such as used plastic bottles, bags, and other plastic waste material in cement concrete, in light of the increasing demand for sustainable construction methods and the rising concern about plastic waste pollution. The study uses a thorough methodology that includes plastic waste material selection by TOPSIS method. The outcomes of this study contribute to sustainable construction practices, waste reduction efforts, and the realization of environmentally friendly and economically viable concrete solutions for the construction industry by using selected plastic waste as an additive.
