Influence of bacteria on strength characteristics in concrete incorporating ceramic tiles waste powder (CTWP)as partial replacement of cement has been investigated in this study. For this purpose, control concrete was designed tohave 28-d strength of 25 and 50 Mpa. In the control concrete cement was partially replaced with (0, 5, 10, and 15% byweight). Then, bacterium Bacillus megaterium (105cells/mL) was mixed in water during making of concrete. Test wereperformed for compressive strength, split pensile strength, and flexural strength, at age of 28 d for CTWP mixtures withand without bacteria.
