Abstract:
Asbestos Ceiling is a type of ceiling that has been used directly or indirectly around the world and
there is a lot of cases related with health and involving death due to usage of this type of ceiling.
Previous research proved that, the number of unused Egg Carton is increasing year by year, due to
growth of population around the globe. Besides using Portland and White Cement, Stopping
Compound, this project will use Shredded Egg Carton and will replace Asbestos as the main material
for making the ceiling, from this it will help to prevent any kind of disease that came from Asbestos
and also could recycle and reused waste materials such as Egg Carton as well. Therefore, this study is
conducted to determine the effects of changing Asbestos with Egg Carton in ceiling production and
also to turn waste materials as usable items. The data that were carried out was from Tensile and
Bending Test conducted on the ceiling .We found that our ceiling is a bit brittle and we need to do
compaction onto the ceiling to make it more stronger to hold any kind of load. Hence, we
recommend to make our ceiling as a Suspended Ceiling.
