Lamp glass rational utilization problem is actual over the world. The main aim of the work is to develop technology for utilizing waste of lamp bore-silicate glass as micro-filler for traditional and self-compacting concrete. Ground glass effect is investigated and compared to traditional micro fillers of concrete. The best compressive strength results are achieved by using silica fume combination with additionally ground glass as complex admixture. Concrete mixes containing silica fume and ground bore-silicate glass perform long-term hard-ening effect, which may be explained by puzzolanic reactions with cement components. The experimental program has been elaborated for investigation of ground glass material as micro filler for self-compacting concrete. Flowing characteristics of mix are tested using modern EN standards. Obtained results confirm a possibility of applying a ground bore-silicate lamp glass as effective alternative micro filler for traditional and self-compacting concrete mixtures
