Even though every day in Palangka Raya, this type plastic waste is quite large. This type of waste management is still not optimal so that this type of garbage can disturb the environment in Palangka Raya. Therefore research is needed so that plastic waste can be used as civil engineering building materials in the case of a mixture of low-quality concrete. This study aims to determine whether PET (Poly Ethylene Terephthatele) plastic waste can be used as a mixture for low quality concrete in Palangka Raya City and the extent of its effect in the compressive strength of low-quality concrete. This research uses experimental methods in the laboratory. The planned concrete quality is K 225 which is classified as low quality concrete. Testing is carried out in 7, 14, and 28 days. PET plastic waste itself will be used as a substitu...
