2- Experimental Program
Mortars were produced combining each mixture of powder materials with a constant Vp/Vs =0.70
On average, for each combination of powder materials, three mortars were produced, varying the Vw/Vp and Sp/p% until required fresh properties were obtained.

Conclusions
The influence of waste glass powder on rheological behaviour of self-compacting mortar phase was studied comparatively with the most common powder addition employed in SCC, the limestone powder.
The increase of glass powder reduces the hysteresis area denoting a reducing in the thixotropy of mixtures.
Indifferently of the powder type the relative flow area was affected by the percentage of powder addition in the mixtures.
The increase of powder addition was also responsible by the relative yield stress decreasing.
The relative flow velocity was reduced at high percentage of glass powder addition and this powder type was also responsible by the lowers relatives’ plastic viscosity.
