Concrete, as a fundamental construction material, is constantly evolving to enhance its performance and sustainability. This study explores the effects of incorporating natural zeolite powder and glass powder as partial replacements for cement in M50 grade concrete. The experimental investigation evaluates the compressive, split tensile, and flexural strengths of concrete specimens at 7, 14, and 28 days. Concrete mixtures containing various proportions of zeolite powder (10%, 20%, 30%) and glass powder (10%, 20%, 30%), both individually and in combination, were prepared and tested. Results indicate that the inclusion of zeolite and glass powders positively influences the strength properties of concrete, with certain mixes outperforming conventional concrete. The analysis of experimental data provides insights into the strength enhancement mechanisms and underscores the potential of these supplementary materials to improve the durability and sustainability of concrete structures. These findings contribute to the development of eco-friendly and high-performance concrete, advancing the field of construction materials engineering.
