Abstract |
|
In the world, there are large amounts of calcined-clay wastes and used foundry sand to generate from the industry each year. So, these wastes are used in landfills. Reusing these wastes in concrete could be a very beneficial situation for society. Therefore, at one side, we can solve the problems of industries and at the other side, we can make more sustainable concrete by reducing nonrenewable resources like cement and aggregates and also solve environmental problems related to land filled wastes. This research paper examines the feasibility of using ceramic waste powder and used foundry sand in concrete. Ceramic waste powder is replaced with cement at a rate of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% and used foundry sand is replaced with natural sand at a rate of 0%, 10%, 20% and 30%. From this research to find out the strength and durability of concrete like compressive strength and slump of concrete. |
