This research analyzes the influence of replacing 5%, 10%, and 15% of cement with ground eggshells on the physical and mechanical properties of concrete for rigid pavements. The aim is to evaluate the extent to which the compressive strength and workability of the modified samples vary in comparison to an unmodified standard sample. The samples were tested at 7, 14, and 28 days, with the results showing that, for settlement, 5% replacement slightly improves workability, resulting in a more fluid mixture. In terms of compression, in a maximum replacement analysis (15%), a decrease of 13.3% is observed at 28 days, which is considered an acceptable value but lower than the standard sample.
