“…Modulus of elasticity and flexural strength of lightweight concrete with different percentages of pumice aggregate replacement instead of sand [11] and AC with varying blocks and bricks (aerated concrete, solid and hollow block, moulded and wire cut brick) were also studied [12,13]. Some studies into the density and porosity of AC have also been reported [10,13,14]. The current study, using laboratory testing, aims to provide a better understanding of the effect of Al concentration on the compressive and flexural strengths, modulus of elasticity, density and porosity of aerated concrete.…”

“…Several investigations have been carried out regarding the influence of aluminium (Al) content on the compressive strength of aerated concrete [8][9][10]. Modulus of elasticity and flexural strength of lightweight concrete with different percentages of pumice aggregate replacement instead of sand [11] and AC with varying blocks and bricks (aerated concrete, solid and hollow block, moulded and wire cut brick) were also studied [12,13].…”

Abstract. Aerated concrete is produced by introducing gas into a concrete, the amount dependent upon the requirements for strength. One method to achieve this is by using powdered aluminium which reacts with the calcium hydroxide produced upon hydration of the cement. The aim of the current study was to investigate the influence of the powder content on the mechanical properties of aerated concrete namely; compressive and flexural strengths, modulus of elasticity, density and porosity. The results indicated that an increase in aluminium content caused a decrease in the compressive and tensile strengths. It also produced a decrease in the modulus of elasticity. When the aluminium content increased, the density decreased and the porosity increased.

“…Chemical analysis of brick powder showed rich composition of silica of about 55% along with minor compositions of iron oxide (8%), aluminum oxide (15%), calcium oxide (7%), magnesium oxide (2%), and sulfur trioxide (1%) [6]. Brick powder is being successfully used in mortar and concrete making from the past few decades.…”

“…Brick powder is being successfully used in mortar and concrete making from the past few decades. It is reported that utilization of 25% brick powder in concrete making resulted in adequate strength and thermal resistance and also addressed cost effectiveness and environmental issues [6]. Partial replacement of cement with brick powder in mortar has showed that with use of brick powder the recycled-aggregate mortar seemed to be superior in terms of mortar-brick bond strength mainly because of its rheological properties [7].…”

Various researchers, for the past few decades, had tried to stabilize black cotton soil using lime for improving its shrinkage and swelling characteristics. But these days, the cost of lime has increased resulting in increase in need for alternative and cost effective waste materials such as fly ash and rice husk ash. Brick powder, one among the alternative materials, is a fine powdered waste that contains higher proportions of silica and is found near brick kilns in rural areas. e objective of the study is to investigate the use of lime-stabilized black cotton soil and brick powder mixture as subbase material in flexible pavements. Black cotton soil procured from the local area, tested for suitability as subbase material, turned out to be unsuitable as it resulted in very less CBR value. Even lime stabilization of black cotton soil under study has not showed up the required CBR value specified for the subbase material of flexible pavement by MORTH. Hence the lime-stabilized black cotton soil is proportioned with brick powder to obtain optimum mixture that yields a better CBR value. e mixture of 20% brick powder and 80% lime-stabilized black cotton soil under study resulted in increase in the CBR value by about 135% in comparison with lime-stabilized black cotton soil. us it is promising to use the mixture of brick powder and lime-stabilized black cotton soil as subbase material in flexible pavements.
