The consumption of different forms of plastics is interesting to the environmental protection subject. The increasing use of plastics in many areas of human daily life results in the accumulation of plastic waste in the environment. The introduction of plastic waste in concrete is a solution to preserve the environment and reduce the cost of concrete.
This paper presents an overview of some published research regarding the use of waste plastic in concrete. we present the work of many researchers on the valorization of plastic waste in concrete in different forms as a partial replacement of fine and coarse aggregate as well as fibers and their effects of waste plastic addition on the fresh, mechanical, and durability of concrete. The research work seems interesting, which shows the possibility of recycling plastic waste in concrete. However, it will be interesting to explore the combined uses of plastic as aggregate and fiber in concrete, which allows a possible recovery of additional quantities of plastic waste in concrete
