You need to do a trails on it and understand by your self.
Ceramic tiles are not wasted in huge quantity that, it can be used for concreting.
Also the glaze on tile will lead to failure in bonding.
Kindly do understand - at ceramic tile manufacturing plant, not even a single small piece of stone get wasted (even waste piece after cutting tile for packing is also re-used for manufacturing of new tile)
replacing fine aggregates by fly ash will increase the wastage of rock at crusher plant and soon all crusher will get closed as they don't have anything to make it dispose off.
Fly ash will kill the concrete and you will never ever able to de-shutter the slab casted with it (it will become a dream of lifetime achievement to make it as house and stay in it with family - its just an example to make you understand), you may use it in other works like roads, walls around public areas.
Fly Ash is costlier than the fine aggregates (Crush sand), fly ash is almost a thrice the price of crush sand.
The concrete even though produce with this combination, will not be a viable idea and will increase the cost of concrete with risk of lifetime.
From student point of view it may sound a good idea for project but it will never ever make any positive impact on your career in future (If you are student right now).
