Because of these reasons the reuse of waste tiles came into picture to reduce solid waste and to reduce the load from natural materials. Crushed waste tiles sand were replace in place of natural sand by 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% foe M30 grade of concrete and also replacing cementious material by 20% using fly ash in concrete. Experimental study like Workability Test, Characteristic Strength of Concrete and Durability Test for different concrete mix after 28 days curing period. It is observed that, replacement of waste tile sand to natural sand gives good result for concrete. Key Words: Waste tiles sand, Natural Sand, Fly ash, Workability Test, Characteristic strength, Durability Test. 1. INTRODUCTION In past decade, variable cost of natural sand used as fine aggregate in concrete increased the cost of construction. In this situation research began for inexpensive and easily available alternative material to natural sand. Some alternative materials have already been used as a part of natural sand e.g. slag limestone and siliceous stone powder were used in concrete mixtures as a partial replacement of natural sand. However, scarcity in required quality is the major limitation in some of the above materials. Now a day’s sustainable infrastructural growth demands the alternative material that should satisfy technical requisites of fine aggregate as well as it should be available abundantly. On this basis, crushed tile sand offers viable alternative. Crushed tile sand has to satisfy the technical requisites like workability and strength of concrete. Since the data on this aspect of concrete using crushed tile sand is scarce, it is necessary to investigate the concrete produced with crushed tile sand. The wastage related to tiles are created due to different reasons like errors in construction, human activities, careless handling, etc., also some of produced in transportation and distribution. Also the most of waste is produced due to the demolition of building. This waste is not recycled in any form at present time. So they are useless and causes an environmental and disposal problem. The tiles are durable, hard and highly resistance to atmospheric, chemical, physical and biological actions. This properties of tiles is good and suitable for concrete. Hence this project aims to study the utilization of tiles waste as replacement of fine aggregate in concrete. This may help to improve the quality of concrete, make it economical and also solve the disposal problem. 2. LITERATURE REVIEW A work done by Sunilaa [1] was focused on replacement of river sand using manufactured sand and quarry dust in cement concrete. The materials used to prepare concrete was Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC – 43 Grade), river sand, quarry dust, quarry stone. Concrete design was prepared for proportion of 1:1.23:2.58 at water cement ratio of 0.43. River sand was replaced with quarry sand by 100% and 50%; and conducted Compression Test, Tensile Test, and Flexural Test. The concrete block has been casted for curing days of 7 days, 14 days, 28 days and 56 days. The result suggested that 50% of river sand can be replaced by quarry dust and manufactured sand to achieve strength of concrete which also improves the quality of concrete. Daniyal [2] the focus was on using waste ceramic tile aggregate in concrete. Waste ceramic tiles, the grading were done by natural aggregate to control concrete with compactable with ceramic tile aggregate as per I. S. Code 383-1970. Then the experiment were done on natural aggregate with ceramic aggregate as per I. S. 2386 (Part-VIII) 1960. The ceramic tiles aggregate is replaced with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% with natural coarse aggregate with water cement ratio of 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6 sample and optimum percentage of ceramic tile aggregate as well as water cement is determined. Then tests were conducted and checked. The result of the test suggests that the workability, density, compressive strength and flexural strength of concrete with ceramic tile aggregate were achieved satisfactorily. An experimental study carried by Usha [3] was focused on replacement of sand with crushed brick in concrete. Quarry stone sand was used as alternative to river sand. Use of an artificial sand instead of river sand in concrete saves the 40% cost. The aim of experiment was to assess the properties of concrete made with crushed brick and study various important properties such as Compression Strength,
