Abstract
The Plastic Concrete Block innovation project seeks to address two pressing global challenges which are the environmental impact of plastic waste and the need for sustainable construction materials. This study outlines the introduction, literature review, methods and materials, result and discussion, and recommendations of Plastic Concrete Blocks as a viable solution to these challenges. The innovation aims to create plastic concrete blocks for a better future with more reusable plastic waste used in construction. The study begins with the introduction to discuss the background of study, problem statement, and aim and objectives of this study to fully understand the environmental issues caused by plastic waste and its detrimental effects on ecosystems. The possibility for recycling plastic trash into sustainable building materials is highlighted, underscoring the need to act quickly to address this challenge. Then, literature review is the summary of previous research to explore in detail and gather information about Plastic Concrete Block.
