Increasing human awareness of the importance of protecting the environment and conserving natural resources requires concrete innovation as an environmentally friendly and sustainable material. Accumulated of solid waste begins to be processed and reused, one of which is as a constituent of concrete. Among the various types of solid waste, glass waste is considered as an alternative that can be used as a substitute for fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate (split stone) and cement. This study investigated the use of mix coloured glass waste consisting of clear, green, and brown as partial substitution of sand in concrete. Although the glass colors were mixed, the proportion of each color had been determined in this study, namely 25%, 25%, and 50%. The purpose of determining these proportions is to find out which type of color glass has the most effect on concrete mix. The target characteristic strength of 25 MPa was produced by replacing sand with 20% of mix coloured waste glass. Three combinations of concrete mixes were prepared for this study. Compression tests were conducted at 7, 14, and 28 days. Workability of fresh concrete, density, compressive strength, and failure mode were investigated in this study. Results showed that the use of waste glass was able to increase the workability of fresh concrete. K1, K 2, and K3 obtained slump values which were 4%, 6,7%, and 1,3% higher than normal concrete. Normal concrete and all combinations exhibited similar density values. Only normal concrete achieved the characteristic strength of 25,7 MPa at 28 days. Meanwhile K1, K2, and K3 achieved strengths of 22,4 MPa, 22,1 MPa, and 24,7 MPa, respectively. It was evident that as workability values increased, the compressive strengths were noticed to reduce.

Alkali Activated

Porous alkali activated materials (AAM), can be obtained from waste glass powder and slag mixtures by alkali activation with NaOH solution. To obtain an adequate porous microstructure, the hardened AAM pastes were thermally treated at temperatures ranging between 900°C and 1000°C, for 60 or 30 minutes. Due to the intumescent behaviour specific for this type of materials, an important increase of the volume and porosity occurs during the thermal treatment. The partial substitution of waste glass powder with slag, determines the increase of compressive strength assessed before (up to 37 MPa) and after (around 10 MPa) thermal treatment; the increase of slag dosage also determines the increase of the activation temperature of the intumescent process (above 950°C). The high porosity and the specific microstructure (closed pores with various shapes and sizes) of these materials recommend them to be utilised as thermal and acoustical insulation materials.

The utilization of solid waste materials or industrial waste as partial substitution of cement is growing in construction industry all around world. Less cement consumption causes consequently reduction in CO2 emission into the atmosphere and reduction in energy consumption. This paper examines the possibility of using finely ground waste glass as a partial replacement for cement and as a sealing admixture. Glass powder used in the research was prepared from the glass waste obtained from a local recycling company. Glass cullet made of brown glass, which after rinsing to remove sugars and other impurities, was dried and ground to a fraction below 125 μm.This paper is the revised version of the paper that has been published in the Proceedings of the Creative Construction Conference 2018 (Horszczaruk and Brzozowski, 2018).

A responsible approach towards sustainable development requires the use of environmentally friendly, low-carbon, and energy-intensive materials. One positive way is to use glass waste as a replacement for fine natural aggregate. For this purpose, the effects of adding glass cullet to the mechanical properties of mortar were carried out. The glass aggregate made from recycled post-consumer waste glass (food, medicine, and cosmetics packaging, including mostly bottles), were used. This experimental work included four different contents of fine glass cullet (5, 10, 15, and 20 wt.% of fine aggregate). The compressive, flexural, and split tensile strengths were evaluated. Moreover, the modulus of elasticity and Poisson coefficient were determined. The addition of glass sand aggregate increases the mechanical properties of mortar. When comparing the strength, the obtained improvement in split tensile strength was the least affected. The obtained effect for the increased analysed properties of the glass sand aggregate content has been rarely reported. Moreover, it was determined that by increasing the recycled glass sand aggregate content, the density of mortar decreased. In addition, the relationships between the properties for mortar containing glass sand aggregate were observed.

Metakaolin-based geopolymer cements were produced by alkaline activation with a potassium hydroxide and potassium silicate solution. To produce the geopolymer composites, 10 wt.% titanium oxide (TiO2) and 5 wt.% copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles were used. The geopolymer mortar was prepared using glass waste as fine aggregate. The raw materials and materials produced were characterized by X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy techniques. Likewise, the geopolymer samples were characterized to determine their physical properties, including their density, porosity, and absorption. The photocatalytic activity of the materials was evaluated by activating the nanoparticles in a chamber with UV–Vis light during 24 h; then, different tests were performed to determine the growth inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria in nutrient agar for times of up to 24 h. The study results showed that a geopolymer mortar containing glass waste as fine aggregate (GP-G) exhibited a water absorption 56.73% lower than that of the reference geopolymer paste without glass (GP). Likewise, glass particles allowed the material to have a smoother and more homogeneous surface. The pore volume and density of the GP-G were 37.97% lower and 40.36% higher, respectively, than those of the GP. The study with bacteria showed that, after 24 h in the culture media, the GP-G mortars exhibited a high inhibition capacity for the growth of P. aeruginosa from solutions of 10−4 mL and in solutions of 10−6 mL for E. coli and S. aureus. These results indicate the possibility of generating antibacterial surfaces by applying geopolymer composite.

The proposed study present behaviour of concrete with inclusion of waste foundry sand (WFS), waste glass, and glass fiber in different concrete trial mixes. Waste foundry sand (WFS) is basically by-product formed from metal casting industries ferrous or non-ferrous, which due to rapid concrete construction in world used as an alternative of sand. Waste glass can be used in concrete in crushed form as a replacement of aggregate or in powdered form as a replacement of cement, the only problem with waste glass is it is prone to alkali-silica reaction due to different composition of different types of glasses. Glass fiber is added with waste glass and waste foundry sand (WFS) to increase strength. Normal concrete grade M25 (1:1:2) is used for this experimental purpose, different concrete trials were casted which consist of replacement of sand with waste foundry sand in different proportion (0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%). Next trial consists of optimum value of (WFS) with different proportion of waste glass (0%, 10%, and 20%, 30%) as a replacement of fine aggregate. Final trial consists of addition of glass fiber (0%, 0.25%, 0.50%, and 0.75%) in optimum value of second trial. Mechanical properties of concrete compressive strength, split-tensile strength, flexural strength was examined at 7, 14, 28, and 56 days curing period.

The mechanical and durability properties were best at 45% GGBS and 5% Waste Glass with 0.4 water/cement ratio. The recycled materials implemented for mix proportion were waste glass provided considerably to enhance its properties when added with GGBS. In most of the research work, the effect of WG and GGBS in concrete as a partial substitution of fine aggregate and cement individually is analyzed. Previous studies only show the individual impact of these concrete recycled materials on mechanical and durability properties. In the present study, an exact optimum substitution level of cement by GGBS (15 – 60% at an increment of 15%) and fine aggregate by the waste glass (5 – 20% at an increase of 5%) combined for OPC concrete mix. Mechanical (compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength) and microstructural properties (FESEM) were observed on the combination of waste glass and GGBS concrete mix.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

Abstract As a material of construction, concrete have a good compressive strength but low tensile strength. From the previous study, reducing the tensile weakness of the concrete using empty fruit bunch (EFB) of Palm for the concrete mix have a significant result. But in contrary, the use of this fiber decreases the compressive strength of concrete. This research aims to optimize a mixture of glass powders on EFB fiber as a solution to increase the compressive and tensile in strength of concrete as well. The fiber material requires pre condition treatment which is soaked in 10% NaOH for 6-10 hours, then is followed with drying for 24 hours and finally cutting into 4 cm pieces long. Using glass powder as mix design with fiber material which is substitute for fine aggregate in concrete. Variation of 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, 1,25%, 1,5%, 1,75%, and 2% fiber material mix up with 10% glass powder used for concrete specimens with a diameter of 15 cm and a height of 30 cm at the age of 28 days testing. The results of this study shows an increase in the compressive and tensile strength of concrete compare to normal concrete. The optimum compressive increase 21.02% of normal concrete which is 24.87 MPa. Meanwhile the tensile strength an increase of 31,78% of normal concrete which is 3,11 MPa using 1% fibre and 10% of glass powder. Hence, using glass powder mix in EFB to increase compressive and tensile strength of concrete can be developed optimally in the future.

Abstract Waste glass is one of the biggest contributors in waste production in Malaysia which can be used as partial sand replacement in concrete. Silica exists in waste glass components made it becomes a pozzolanic material and suitable to be used in a concrete mixture. The performance of the waste glass as fine aggregate was reviewed by considering the workability of fresh concrete, the strength, and the splitting tensile of hardened concrete. The range of the replacement waste are 0%, 10%, 20% and 30%. The influence of the waste glass on the microstructure of the concrete also have been evaluated. A total of seventeen previous research papers were collected and review based on the parameters selected. The results shows that replacement of waste glass in concrete give a positive impact for all selected parameters with 20% replacement represent as an optimal percentage replacement. The microstructure of the waste glass concrete resulting that more voids created after 20% replacement of waste glass which affects the compressive strength and split tensile strength of the concrete thus make the optimum replacement percentage is 20% replacement.

Glass has the characteristics of biologically incapable of breaking down, corrosion resistant, suitable for long term storage and use. It has resistance of acid, alkali and salt and stable property. The hardness of the natural stone with the glass is very close , therefore, the waste glass as fine aggregate instead of natural sand to produce concrete is feasible. This paper use ordinary concrete C30 as the research object normal concrete using mixed glass method design, in accordance with the percentage of 0, 50, 100 instead of sand. Three sections and eighteen waste glass aggregate concrete specimens were produced for the cube concrete compressive strength and the axial compressive strength experiments. Through the analysis of experimental data, it suggested that the ratio of glass replacing sand is higher ,the compressive strength and the axial compressive strength are higher.
