“…Also, the lowest water absorption was obtained for the C-4-1 mortar sample with sand filler, which was equal to 3.2 wt.%. This instance is consistent with earlier research, which has demonstrated in the literature that the RBP samples' porous nature and tiny pores increase water absorption 23 , 85 . Moreover, water absorption in mortar and brick samples is decreased by adding 50% sand filler.…”

Waste from construction and demolition (also known as CDW) is one of the most harmful environmental issues. This study's primary goal is to produce new mortar and brick materials from recycled concrete powder (RCP) and recycled brick powder (RBP), two of the most popular CDW. Geopolymeric mortar and brick samples were produced by passing RCP and RBP through sieve No. 50 (with sand filler if necessary) and combining them with an alkaline solution made of water glass (WG) and NaOH. In this study, the mixture was then cured for three days at 80 °C in an oven. The effects of filler, RBP amount, WG amount, and the concentration of NaOH alkaline solution on the samples’ strength were examined. Additionally, XRF and SEM/XRD tests were performed to verify the materials' composition and microstructure. The mechanical strength of the samples showed an increase with the increase of RCP values, so the brick sample with filler showed the highest compressive strength, measuring 59.53 MPa. The study's samples exhibited strong mechanical properties. Additionally, all of the bricks' water absorption fell within the standard range. In summary, according to different standards, both waste concrete and waste brick can be used to produce geopolymer materials especially bricks for construction and paving purposes.

“…Investigations have shown a range of agro-waste products as potential replacements for natural aggregates in the production of construction materials like sandcrete blocks. Glass, plastic, bricks, tires, and bio-waste like palm kernel shells are some of these waste items [14]. They also include waste from building and demolition efforts.…”

Animal bone waste (ABW) is hazardous to the environment and necessitates a sizable area for disposal. This study aims to employ animal bone waste (ABW) in functionalised compact concrete as a partial substitution for cementitious materials, the source of which are both unswerving and appropriate for substitute preventive solutions promotes the industry’s ecological sustainability by minimizing and reducing the negative impact of the concrete industry due to the explosive usage of raw materials. As a result, this paper examines the impact of using crushed animal bones as coarse aggregates in place of sand and cement in the production of concrete. With an improved step level of 10% through cement mass, ABW was applied at a percentage range of 0 to 40%. Bone’s various characteristics in its fresh and hardened states were looked examined. A Sieve shaker machine was employed to sieve the bone after which the bone was boiled and dried to remove moisture. To evaluate whether the employed aggregates and crushed animal bone were suitable for use in concrete, a physical analysis of each was performed.
