“…It is also observed that the initial resistances of the various mortars (at 3 days) reach 50% compared to that of the 28 days. At the age of 28 days, the strength of mortars MBr 5%, MBr 10% and MBr 15% exceed that of the reference mortar which is probably due to the pozzolanic activity of this material according other researchers [12][13][14][15][16].…”

Abstract. The development of new building materials is a current problem where researchers are trying to find the right materials for each region and returning cheapest countries. Recycling and recovery of waste are now considered as a promising solution to meet the deficit between production and consumption and protecting the environment. This work focused on the study of the effect of brick waste in the production of cement mortar with substitution rates ranging from 5-30% by weight of cement and to compare its performance with fresh and hardened state with ordinary mortar considered as control mortar. Compressive and tensile strengths up to 28 days of age were compared with those of controlled mortar. Water absorption was also measured at 28 days of age. The test results indicate the beneficial effect of brick waste powder on performance of cement mortar with an optimum of 15% of cement weight substitution.

“…Moreover, studies carried out by several researchers have shown the beneficial effect of the use of this type of waste [8][9][10][11] in addition to the pozzolanic character of the latter [8,[12][13][14][15][16].…”

“…However, there is still a need to develop the sustainability in concrete manufacturing by reducing the burden on natural resources. Around 80% of volume of concrete is made of aggregates, which is normally derived from natural resources [2]. As the natural aggregates are continued to eventually receive their expiration date in various parts of the world, the concrete industry needs to seek for other possible alternatives [2].…”

“…With the increasing shortage of natural resources and ever increasing cost, waste utilization has become a great alternative for disposal [1]. Utilizing CDW seems practical; it promotes the development of sustainable construction practices [2]. In the literature, the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) especially silica fume contributes various improvements of mechanical properties and durability [3].…”

Abstract. Construction and demolition wastes are increasing significantly due to augmented boom of modern construction. Although the partial cement replacement materials do promote the idea of sustainable construction, the use of construction and demolition waste can also be considered to be viable option to advance the sustainability in modern construction practices. This paper investigates the use of industrial waste materials namely marble dust and crushed bricks as replacement of natural fine aggregates along with the use of silica fume as a partial cement replacement on the mechanical properties and durability characteristics of concrete. Partial replacement levels of waste materials were 10 and 20 percent by volume while the partial replacement level of silica fume was kept to 20 percent at all concrete samples. The results reported in this paper show that the use of marble dust as a replacement material to the natural fine aggregates resulted in an increase in the mechanical properties of concrete. However, the use of crushed bricks did not substantially contribute in the development of strength. Water permeability of concrete incorporated with both silica fume and waste materials (marble dust and crushed bricks) decreased significantly. The decrease in water permeability of concrete was attributed to the pozzolanic reaction of silica fume with calcium hydroxide of cement and the filler effect of the waste materials of marble dust and crushed bricks. The use of waste materials also enhance the freeze and thaw resistance of concrete. Authors strongly suggest that the pozzolanic reaction and the development of the microstructure of the concrete through the use of waste materials are largely responsible from the advances in the durability of concrete.

“…However, one should pay particular attention to the fact that not all types of ceramics have the same technical properties, and this solution is not useful in all cases that might seem beneficial from the technical point of view. For example, the research findings presented in [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] indicate the potential for using red ceramics for the production of cement concretes. Further, although it has been proven that the substitute for traditional gravel aggregate in the form of broken bricks [1,3,6,9,12] has less favourable properties, there are several ecological benefits of new solutions.…”

Abstract. The article presents the results of research on primary recycling properties of ceramic aggregates conducted following the procedures outlined in WT-1 2014 Aggregates − Technical Requirements. The material for the tests was obtained from a company producing sanitary ceramic products. Damaged ceramic products, coming from the factory waste heaps, were transported to the laboratory and crushed. This enabled producing aggregate that was later subjected to tests carried out on the aggregates commonly used in the production of mineral-asphalt mixes applied in making road surfaces. The factors that were examined include the following: the flow rate of fine aggregates (angularity of fine aggregate), fine particles content -methylene blue test, light-weight impurities content, frost resistance, bulk density of grains as well as water absorption determined by pycnometric method. The test results showed that the properties of the recycled aggregates are similar to those included in traditional aggregates used for the production of mineral-asphalt mixes. On the basis of the conducted analyses, the waste ceramic aggregate was recommended for use.
