the article proposes a rational method for processing 3D printing concrete scrap using vibration equipment, which allows obtaining a multicomponent building material with minimal electricity consumption. As a crite-rion for the degree of grinding of concrete scrap, it is proposed to use the specific surface area of the finely dispersed part of concrete scrap, which should correspond to 400-500 m2/kg. The possibility of reusing the resulting product instead of the traditional fine aggregate of quartz sand is shown. It was found that the con-crete scrap without the addition of Portland cement hardens, reaching up to 48% of the compressive strength of the control samples by 28 days. When 10% of the binder CEM I 42.5 N was added to the concrete scrap processing product, the compressive strength of fine-grained concrete increased by 106.6%, and 20% of Portland cement - by 112.2 %, compared to the strength of control samples of a similar composition on tra-ditional quartz sand after 28 days of hardening. It is noted that this is primarily due to the weak contact zone of quartz sand and the cement matrix of concrete. The use of the product of processing concrete scrap al-lows obtaining building composites based on it with the complete exclusion of natural raw materials

The workability, 28-day compressive strength and free drying shrinkage of a very high strength (121-142 MPa) steel micro fiber reinforced portland cement mortar were studied under a combined influence of fine aggregate content and fiber content. The test results showed that an increase in the fine aggregate content resulted in decreases in the workability, 28-day compressive strength and drying shrinkage of mortar at a fixed fiber content. An increase in the fiber content resulted in decreases in the workability and drying shrinkage of mortar, but an increase in the 28-day compressive strength of mortar at a fixed fine aggregate content. The modified Gardner model most accurately predicted the drying shrinkage development of the high strength mortars, followed by the Ross model and the ACI 209R-92 model. The Gardner model gave the least accurate prediction for it was developed based on a database of normal strength concrete.

Two types of nanomaterial: Tio2 nanoparticles (NPs) and carbon black NPs have used in this research to study their effect on compressive strength, shrinkage and flow table tests Cement mortar. The mixing ratio was 1:2.7:0.485 (cement, sand, water/cement ratio) for compressive strength test and 1:2 (cement, sand) with the water/cement ratio was a variable value for dry shrinkage test. The two nanoparticles’ ratios are (0.25%, 0.75%, 1.25 % and 1.75%) by weight of the Portland cement. The test results show that the highest value of compressive strength was obtained when using Tio2 at 1.25% wt. of cement. But when using carbon black nanoparticles, the greatest value was obtained when adding it with a ratio of 1.75 % wt. of cement. Using two NPs when added to cement mortar has a negative effect on the shrinkage value.

Concrete is produced increasingly worldwide and accounting 10-20% emission of carbon dioxide. The potential long term opposing cost of environmental effects need to recognize. Residue of coal combustion ashes especially bottom ash will use to develop reuse application. This study focused on compressive strength of several composition of bottom ash as cement replacement in mortar. Curing of cement mortar techniques and duration also plays an important role and effects on the strength. The objective of this research is to examine the compressive strength of bottom ash in Portland cement under various compositions and fineness of bottom ash.

This study investigated the basic mechanical and microscopic properties of cement produced with metakaolin and quantified the production of residual white efflorescence. Cement mortar was produced at various replacement ratios of metakaolin (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25% by weight of cement) and exposed to various environments. Compressive strength and efflorescence quantify (using Matrix Laboratory image analysis and the curettage method), scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis were reported in this study. Specimens with metakaolin as a replacement for Portland cement present higher compressive strength and greater resistance to efflorescence; however, the addition of more than 20% metakaolin has a detrimental effect on strength and efflorescence. This may be explained by the microstructure and hydration products. The quantity of efflorescence determined using MATLAB image analysis is close to the result obtained using the curettage method. The results demonstrate the best effectiveness of replacing Portland cement with metakaolin at a 15% replacement ratio by weight.

Portland cement consists essentially of compounds of lime mixed with silica and alumina whereas zeolite is a kind of minerals containing high content of reactive silica and alumina. Therefore, there is a probability to apply zeolite in cement mortar in order to develop mortar properties. The purpose of this research was to study and analyze the efficiency of zeolite addition on properties of cement mortar. X-ray diffraction (XRD), universal testing machine (UTM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to characterize for mortar specimens. Mechanical property test was compressive strength according to ASTM C109 and carried out on 5 x 5 x 5 cm3 cube specimens at 1, 7 and 28 curing days. In this research, cement mortars were prepared by mixing type I Portland cement, fly ash, sand and zeolite. Zeolite was varied as 0, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 wt.% to cement and w/b (water to binder ratio) was 0.48. The results presented that the compressive strength of mortar with small amount of zeolite was improved since 1day age obviously comparing to that of mortar without zeolite. It was confirmed that zeolite would help strengthening the cement mortars at early strength.
