The dredging practices are a major challenge for the development and maintenance of port activities. Millions of cubic meters are extracted regularly from Algerian ports, it is necessary to value them. This study focuses on the development of marine sediments from the port of Bethioua for making bricks. A physicochemical, mineralogical and fine microscopic characterization was done with great care for these marine sediments and for the slip brick at several laboratories in our university (USTO-MB). The physicochemical, mineralogical and microscopic characterization of materials shows a similarity between these sediments. They can be a very useful source of local raw materials, particularly for the building sector such as bricks.
Le programme de cuisson été de l'ordre où la température augmente pour atteindre une température de 900°C pendant 4 heures, un maintien de 24 heures avec cette température puis une descente de température jusqu'à la température ambiante avec une durée de 3 à 4 fois la monté (figure 2). Ensuite ces éprouvettes de briques produites ont été conservées et soumises à des essais de résistance à la compression au moyen d'une presse mécanique.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
