In view of the ecological challenge that our planet has been facing in recent years, environmental protection has become an issue for researchers and scientists in all fields, through the reduction of discharges from factories and the recycling of waste. Among the most common solid waste is glass waste, which is attracting the attention of recycling specialists in various sectors, particularly construction, by incorporating it into the composition of concrete and reusing it as building materials. The aim of our work is to use the RUEES-Voigt homogenization model to estimate the values of the mechanical properties of an eco-concrete based on glass powder and to compare them with the results found experimentally for a replacement of (5% , 10% ,15%,20 ,25%,30%,35%) of the quantity of cement by glass powder with a particle diameter of 2.79 µm. Very interesting experimental results were obtained which validate the effective RUEES-Voigt model proposed, which opens up the possibility of using other homogenization models.
