An Overview of energy Efficiency of Translucent Concrete

Priya Rajendra Sangshetty, Dr.A.W Dhawale

ABSTRACT Due to globalization and the construction of high-rise building, the space between the building is reduced this causes the rising use of non-natural light, so it is significant to build up a new kind of building material. In this term paper based on excellent properties of light transmitting, an elegant translucent concrete is developed by arranging optical fiber into the concrete. As the optical fiber is sensing element, so it is worked on light theory. In the paper manufacturing, advantages, disadvantages, applications and future scope of translucent concrete is given. A few studies have been carried out on the translucent concrete with the replacement of usual concrete. This paper presents the current status and past studies in the area of translucent concrete. However, this new building material is in the development stage and it has a wide scope in future. Keywords: Translucent Concrete, Optic Fiber, Light Theory, Globalization,
