“…The apparent density and compressive strength decrease while the porosity increases.These by-products are present in the environment and contribute to pollution [14,15]. The utilization of marble dust reduces the cost of cement-based material production and also decreases the costs of removing it from the environment [16].The possibility of using waste materials such as marble dust as a partial substitution in the production of mortar and concrete has often been investigated by researchers [5,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. Its mechanical properties are the main aspect of the analysis.…”

The aim of this study is to assess the possibility of utilizing waste marble dust (WMD) as a partial cement substitution in air-cured mortar (ACM). Three different levels of cement replacement were analyzed: 5%, 10% and 15% by cement weight. The specimens were manufactured in a local laboratory at an air temperature of 22 ± 2 °C and a humidity equal to 20 ± 1%. The chemical and physical properties of ordinary Portland cement and WMD has been found to be the most crucial parameters. A variety of macroscopic tests, such as apparent density, porosity and compressive strength, were proposed in order to explain the effect of utilizing the WMD on the ACM. To confirm the results of the macroscopic properties, thorough microstructural analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed. The obtained results of this study indicate that replacing cement with WMD affects the physical and mechanical properties of air-cured mortar. The apparent density and compressive strength decrease while the porosity increases.

“…The UPV test depends on several parameters such as the type and the content of cement, the type and the volume of aggregates, the type of admixture, the amount of water, the initial wetting condition, and the age of curing, it also depends on the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) between aggregate and cement paste, the density and the porosity of the cement paste, and the characteristics of aggregates [1]. The UPV test performed on standard concrete is very well described in literature [2,3].…”

“…This is due to the MP that features by a micro-filler effect that helps in forming a dense mix by filling the voids [13]. While the utilization of MP in self-compacting concrete as cement replacement led to decrease the UPV values [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17], it was concluded that this decrease is due to the reduction of C 3 S and C 2 S in cement paste [15] which reduces the volume of hydrated products. Other studies [2,18] have shown that the utilization of MP as cement or sand replacement has an insignificant effect on the UPV values of concrete.…”

This paper presents an experimental study on the assessment of the cement-based materials properties made with marble powder (MP) at different replacement ratios (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%) of cement by using the ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) test. The used MP has a Blaine fineness similar to that of Portland cement. The physical and the chemical characteristics of Portland cement and MP were determined. To determine the UPV values, cubic specimens (50 × 50 × 50 mm3) of cement paste and mortar were prepared and cured either in air at a temperature equal to 22 ± 2 °C and relative humidity equal to 20 ± 1%, or in water at a temperature equal to 20 ± 1 °C. The experimental tests including the UPV, the compressive strength (fcd), and the apparent density (ϒad) were conducted at 3, 7, 28, and 65 days, the relationship between each of these parameters were presented. Additionally, economic performance of cement and waste MP used in this study was performed. The results show that the use of MP as partial replacement of cement causes a decrease in the compressive strength and apparent density in both curing conditions. In addition, the results show a good relationship between the destructive test and non-destructive test adopted by UPV.

“…With the development of the SCC direction the researchers are paying more attention to the design of the grain size distribution of mixtures taking into account both the grain shape and the grain size distribution of fine and coarse aggregates as well as the particle size distribution of cement and mineral additives. The use of mineral additives reduces the Portland cement consumption provides the required viscosity of the mixture and also allows to increase the durability of concrete [12][13][14]. Powders based on dolomite and limestone, rock crushing waste, quartz flour, etc.…”

Quantitative parameters of influence of grain composition of ground quartz sand and its quantity on the workability and segregation of self-compacting fresh concrete were determined at the constant amount of mixing water and water-cement ratio. Ground quartz sand in the amount of 50-150 kg/m3 was added instead of fine and coarse aggregates with changing the amount of polycarboxylate superplasticizer. It is stated that the use of ground quartz sand of finer grinding provides higher values of workability at the same quantity of water and superplasticizer. Segregation of the fresh concrete occurs when using increased amount of ground quartz sand of coarser grinding and increased amount of superplasticizer. Experimental studies have shown the effectiveness of the use of ground quartz sand to obtain self-compacting fresh concrete of different classes of workability SF1 and SF2 as well as classes of segregation resistance SR1 and SR2. The results of the experiments allow to state that the use of ground quartz sand of coarser grinding leads to segregation of fresh concrete at its low workability, while the use of ground quartz sand of finer grinding allows to obtain fresh concrete with resistance to segregation.
