Conventional pavement materials can hardly bear current an‎d future traffic load an‎d volume conditions. Pavements are always exposed to surface wear an‎d tear due to continuous traffic load. This is essential to develop the short- an‎d long-term concrete pavement performance, safety, an‎d eco-environmental features during an‎d after construction, taking into consideration of projectʹs life cycle. In this study, CGM method was used to optimize the control samples. In order to improve the quality an‎d increase the density of concrete mixes, glass powder with a maximum size of 100 microns with different percentages *0, 5, 10, 15, 20% were replaced with cement type II. On the optimal control samples an‎d 10% glass powder, the density an‎d fluidity/workability of fresh concrete mixes were tested. The slump loss with respect to the time for variable percentages of glass powder was determined. Non-destructive tests such as ultrasonic plus velocity an‎d Schmidtʹs hammer, destructive tests containing compressive, flexural, an‎d split tensile strength, surface abrasion resistance, weight loss by the Cantabro method on optimal control an‎d glass powder samples at various curing ages *3, 7, 28, 42, an‎d 90 days were carried out. The results shows that with an increase of glass powder, the density of fresh concrete samples increases up to the optimal point an‎d then decreases, while increasing the percentage of glass powder in the fresh concrete mixture has the reverse effect. Adding the optimum glass powder, has an increasing effect on the strength an‎d durability behavior of concrete samples an‎d the surface abrasion resistance an‎d weight loss by Cantabro method of samples were improved respectively. With respect to the experiment results, the fitness between the various destructive an‎d non-destructive test dada at different ages has been suggested, which has appropriate accuracy an‎d can be used in quality analysis.
