“…*Roller compacted concrete (RCC) causes a major development to the mass concrete construction industries by fastening and easing the traditional methods of placement, compaction, and consolidation (Omran et al, 2017). In simple terms, RCC can be defined as a dry lean concrete of zero slump consistency that is constructed using a similar process as in pavement construction (ACI, 2011b) .…”

In this study, response surface methodology (RSM) was used to evaluate the effect of partial replacement of fine aggregate with crumb rubber and the addition of nano silica by weight of cementitious materials on the durability performance of HVFA RCC pavement. The experiments were designed and analysis executed using the face centered central composite design method. After executing the experimental works, regression analysis was used to develop models for predicting the Vebe time and water absorption of HVFA RCC pavement. The analysis of variance for the developed models showed that the Vebe time and water absorption of HVFA RCC pavement can be predicted using quadratic model type with higher degree of correlation and predictability. The results of multi-objective optimization showed that an optimum HVFA RCC pavement with minimum Vebe time and water absorption values can be achieved with 17.09% crumb rubber as replacement to fine aggregate by volume, 50% fly ash as replacement to cement by volume, and 1.01% nano silica as addition by weight of cementitious materials. The experimental results showed that the Vebe time of HVFA RCC pavement increases with increase in partial replacement of cement with fly ash, and addition of nano silica. While the rate of water absorption of HVFA RCC pavement increases with increase in partial replacement of cement with fly ash, and increase in partial replacement of fine aggregate with crumb rubber, and decreases with the addition of nano silica by weight of cementitious materials.

The paper presents preliminary analyzes of the possibilities of using glass waste from extruded fluorescent lamps as aggregates for cement concretes. The research material was obtained from a company that utilizes electrical waste. Glass from pre-sorted lighting elements was transported to the laboratory and crushed in a steel mortar. In this way, the aggregate obtained was subjected to the basic tests that are carried out for aggregates traditionally used in construction. The specific density of aggregate, bulk density, absorbability, grain shape and texture type were examined. In the next stage of research work, a concrete mix was made, in which, as a substitute for 25% gravel aggregate, crushed aggregate from crushed fluorescent lamps was used. The compressive and tensile strength of the concrete thus formed was tested. Analysis of the test results showed that broken glass from worn out fluorescent lamps can potentially be used as an aggregate for cement concrete.

“…According to the literature, waste glass can also be used as sand, gravel, or supplementary cementitious material in eco-efficient concretes. The use of waste glass is an alternative that mitigates negative impacts related to Portland cement production, such as high energy consumption, greenhouse gas emission, and natural resource consumption (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11).…”

Influence of soda-lime waste glass microparticles on workability and thermal properties of portland cement compounds

et al. 2019

Numerous studies have investigated the use of waste glass as a partial substitution in Portland cement. Nonetheless, it seems there is no consensus about the influence of particle size and color on the behavior of the compounds. This work investigates the influence of soda-lime glass microparticles on the properties of cement and mortar in both fresh and hardened states. The effects of partial substitution (10 and 20%) of the cement by colorless and amber glass particles with dimensions of approximately 9.5 mm were investigated. The results revealed that the substitutions did not significantly affect the setting times, nor the mechanical properties of mortar at longer curing times. The influence of glass content and chemical composition on workability and hydration heat was also observed. The waste glass samples showed lower thermal diffusivity than the control sample. Thermal emissivity was not influenced by the presence of glass microparticles.
