Abstract

Plastering is a construction technique using a mixture of cement, fine aggregate (River sand or Msand) to create a smooth, protective finish on walls and ceilings. It conceals imperfections, enhances aesthetics, and improves insulation. But Cement production is a major source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. River sand mining can alter and destroy natural habitats in and around riverbeds. Quarrying for raw materials to produce M-sand can disrupt local ecosystems and habitats, potentially affecting wildlife and plant species in the area. Instead of traditional cement plastering, Also The generation of waste plastic is increasing day by day. It has numerous negative effects on the environment. 9.46 million tons of plastic garbage are produced in India each year. The fact that about 40% of this waste is not collected has an impact on the environment. Hence the Eco plaster gypsum board making with waste plastic, used for reducing environmental impact and contributing to sustainable construction practices.
