The paver blocks which are well known for their interlocking and flexible characteristics have been used widely in the world mainly for the laying of pavements, driveways, pedestrian precincts, patios, town centers, and also for common road purposes concerning their highly adaptable properties. Ideas are developed to produce various types of pavers with different characteristics according to its need. Plastics are vastly available around the world and the increasing number of waste has also been increasing tremendously. Plastics have incredible possessions like lightweight, tension, elongation, flexural and water-resistant which helps the construction industry to use this as an alternative product of filler material. The usage of agro-based industrial wastes like Bagasse which is burnt up to certain degrees and turned up into ash contains much pozzolanic character used as an alternative for the binding material. Viewing the environmental aspects, the casting of the pavers includes recyclable plastics and the agro-based industrial waste called bagasse ash. Addition of the products with a simultaneously increasing percentage of 10%, 20% up to 50% to find its strength and capacity of its usage in a regular way. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
