Abstract
There are different types of marble wastes produced at quarrying sites such as wastes generated during
quarrying, wastes generated during processing, organic solid waste and inorganic solid wastes. Different
types of wastes can be used in different types of works such as in building works, road works, in different
ceramic works, Ready mix concrete, and cement industries. The wastes are dumped on land and the dust is
airborne by the wind and makes air pollution in environment. Marble slurry affects the soil fertility and
reduces them. Here in this paper author has suggested to use in concrete works. It will solve double
purpose; it will reduce the cost of construction and will save the environment. Addition of marble wastes
does not affect the strengths of structures also.
