The application of alternative materials in concrete production is getting importance due to rising awareness about sustainable construction. Among alternate materials, recycled waste glass shows good pozzolanic behavior due to its high silica content which makes it an alternate option of cementitious material in concrete. Other physical properties, like-inert nature, positive response against compression etc. and chemical properties make glass an alternative of fine and coarse aggregate too. A critical review on fresh properties and compressive strength of concrete incorporating waste glass has been described in this study based on various published literatures. It has been found from several studies that if waste glass is added in a proper proportion, it is possible to achieve workable concrete with better strength properties than that of regular concrete. Conventional aggregates of concrete, likegravel, brick chips, sand and cement are expensive, cause extraction of natural resources and environmental pollution. In this context, it can be said that waste glass may introduce an option of economic and pollution free concrete construction if used in optimum quantity.
