Abstract :The main goal of this paper is to disseminate strength and engineering properties of concrete produced with waste marble aggregate and waste demolition materials. For this purpose, Tunceli province was selected as a case study. The purpose of selection Tunceli is this province is small and still remains natural due to un-existing industrial facilities. Two different materials were evaluated. These are marble waste and demolition waste. Four type of mix design were used. These are control concrete, concrete produced with demolition waste, concrete with waste marble aggregate and concrete with waste marble dust. Replacement of demolition waste by aggregate was 55 % by mass. In addition to demolition waste, marble aggregate was replaced with natural aggregate 67.5 % by mass for third mix and last mix design was prepared with marble aggregate and dust 37.5 % and 7.5 % by total mass respectively. Compressive strength tests were performed on the base of current Turkish regulation, TS EN 12390-3 and abrasion resistance tests were performed according to ASTM-C 944. Results were compared and disseminated.
