TLDR
In this paper, a field trial was conducted using a 40 MPa concrete mixture, incorporating various proportions of glass powder (0, 20, and 30%) as cement replacement, and the results demonstrated that GLP can be incorporated into 40MPa concrete at dosage rates of 20-30% to replace cement without harmful effects.

A review on the use of waste glasses in the production of cement and concrete

TL;DR: The use of recycled waste glasses in Portland cement and concrete has attracted a lot of interest worldwide due to the increased disposal costs and environmental concerns as discussed by the authors, however, the use of crushed glasses as aggregates for Portland cement concrete does have some negative effect on properties of the concrete.

Recycling of waste glass as a partial replacement for fine aggregate in concrete

TL;DR: The mortar bar tests demonstrated that the finely crushed waste glass helped reduce expansion by 66% as compared with the control mix, and the results proved 80% pozzolanic strength activity given by waste glass after 28 days.

A review of waste products utilized as supplements to Portland cement in concrete

TL;DR: The authors summarizes the current state of practice with regard to the use of waste products as supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) in portland cement concrete (PCC) and provides a summary of the comparatively sparse information on underutilized waste materials such as: sugarcane bagasse ash, rice husk ash, waste wood biomass ash, and waste glass.

Strength and durability of recycled aggregate concrete containing milled glass as partial replacement for cement

TL;DR: In this article, the use of milled waste glass, as partial replacement of cement, is estimated to produce significant gains in strength and durability of recycled aggregate concrete, which is also found to suppress alkali-silica reactions.

Influence of a fine glass powder on the durability characteristics of concrete and its comparison to fly ash

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed investigation carried out to ascertain the durability characteristics of fine glass powder modified concretes is reported, where tests for rapid chloride permeability, alkali-silica reactivity, and moisture transport parameters were designed to facilitate comparisons between concrete modified with either glass powder or fly ash at the same cement replacement level.

Studies on concrete containing ground waste glass

TL;DR: In this paper, the possibility of using finely ground waste glass as partial cement replacement in concrete was examined through three sets of tests: the lime-glass tests to assess the pozzolanic activity of ground glass, the compressive strength tests of concrete having 30% cement replaced by ground glass to monitor the strength development, and the mortar bar tests to study the potential expansion.

"glascrete"--concrete with glass aggregate

TL;DR: In this article, the use of crushed waste glass as aggregate for concrete products was investigated, and it was shown that waste glass ground to U.S. standard sieve size No. 50 or smaller causes mortar bar expansions in the American Society for Testing and Materials C 1260 test of less than 0.1%.
