This work investigates the possibility of using fly ash (FA) and Vietnam residual rice husk ash (RHA) in producing unfired building bricks with applying densified mixture design algorithm (DMDA) method. In this research, little amount of cement was added into the mixtures as binder substitution. Unground rice husk ash (URHA), an agricultural by-product, was used as partial fine aggregate replacement (10% and 30%) in the mixtures. The solid bricks of 220×105×60 mm in size were prepared in this study. The hardened properties of the bricks were investigated including compressive strength, flexural strength and water absorption according to corresponding Vietnamese standards. Forming pressure of 35 MPa was applied to form the solid bricks in the mold. The test results show that all brick specimens obtained good mechanical properties, which were well conformed to Vietnamese standard. Compressive strength and flexural strength of the bricks were respectively in range of 13.81–22.06 MPa and 2.25–3.47 MPa. It was definitely proved many potential applications of FA and RHA in the production of unfired building bricks.

Infrastructure development is one of the important aspects of the progress of a country where most of the constituents of infrastructure are concrete. The most important constituent of concrete is cement because its function is to bind other concrete materials so that it can form a hard mass. The large number of developments using cement as a building material will leave quite a lot of cement bags.In this study, the authors conducted research on the effect of adding cement waste to the compressive strength of concrete. This study used an experimental method with a total of 24 test objects. The test object is in the form of a concrete cylinder with a diameter of 15 cm and a height of 30 cm and uses variations in the composition of the addition of cement waste cement as a substitute for fine aggregate, namely 0%, 2%, 4% and 6%. K200). The compressive strength test was carried out at the age of 7 days and 28 days.The test results show that the use of waste as a partial substitute for fine aggregate results in a decrease in the compressive strength of each mixture. at the age of 7 days the variation of 2% is 16.84 MPa, 4% is 11.32 MPa and for a mixture of 6% is 6.68 MPa. Meanwhile, the compressive strength test value of 28 days old concrete in each mixture decreased by ± 6 MPa. So the conclusion is cement cement waste cannot be used as a substitute for fine aggregate in fc 16.6 (K200) quality concrete because the value is lower than the specified minimum of 16.6 MPa.

This study presents an experimental investigation on the recycling of waste incineration bottom ash (IBA) as a fine aggregate in the production of interlocking concrete bricks (ICB). Before being used, the concentration of heavy metal in IBA was determined to confirm it is a non-toxic material. In this study, the IBA was used to replace crushed sand (CSA) in the brick mixtures at different replacement levels of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% (by volume). The ICB samples were checked for dimensions, visible defects, compressive strength, bending strength, water absorption, and surface abrasion in accordance with the related Vietnamese standards. The test results demonstrated that the IBA used in this study was a non-toxic material, which can be widely used for construction activities. All of the ICB samples prepared for this study exhibited a nice shape with consistent dimensions and without any visible defects. The incorporation of IBA in the brick mixtures affected engineering properties of the ICB samples such as a reduction in the compressive strength and bending strength and an increment in water absorption and surface abrasion of the brick samples. As a result, the compressive strength, bending strength, water absorption, and surface abrasion values of ICB samples at 28 days were in the ranges of 20.6 – 34.9 MPa, 3.95 – 6.62 MPa, 3.8 – 7.2%, and 0.132 – 0.187 g/cm2, respectively. Therefore, either partial or full replacement of CSA by IBA, the ICB with grades of M200 – M300 could be produced with satisfying the TCVN 6476:1999 standard in terms of dimensions, visible defects, compressive strength, water absorption, and surface abrasion. These results demonstrated the high applicability of the local IBA in the production of the ICB for various construction application purposes. Keywords: interlocking concrete brick; waste incineration bottom ash; visible defect; compressive strength; bending strength; water absorption; surface abrasion.

The flexural strength of conventional concrete material is known to be enhanced by incorporating a moderate volume-fraction of randomly distributed fibers. However, there is limited information on describing the influence of fiber volume-fraction on the compressive and flexural strength of recycled coarse aggregate concrete (RCA-C) material. This paper reports on experimental test results of the RCA-C material replaced with 0, 30, 50 and 100% recycled aggregate and 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5% steel fiber volume fraction. Three-point flexural tests of notched prism specimens were completed. The mechanical properties in compression were characterized using cube specimens. Significant improvement in compressive and flexural strength of RCA-C was found as fiber content increased from 0 to 1.5%. The experimental test results of RCA-C were further evaluated to investigate the influence of fiber content on flexural toughness. According to test results, the addition of steel fibers to RCA-C material appreciably increased the flexural toughness.

The undesirable properties of conventional recycled fine aggregate (RFA) often limit its application in the construction industry. To overcome this challenge, a method for preparing completely recycled fine aggregate (CRFA), which crushes all concrete waste only into fine aggregate, was proposed. The obtained CRFA had high apparent density, and its water absorption was lower than that of the conventional RFA. To take advantage of the CRFA, this paper introduced the modified packing density method for the CRFA concrete mix design. The modified packing density method took account of the powder with a particle size of smaller than 75 μm in the CRFA and balanced both the void ratio and the specific surface area of the aggregate system. Concrete (grade C55) was prepared using the CRFA to validate the feasibility of the proposed method. The unit price of the prepared CRFA concrete was around 12.7% lower than that of the natural aggregate concrete. Additionally, the proposed procedure for the concrete mixture design could recycle all concrete waste into the new concrete and replace all the natural fine aggregate in the concrete mixture.

Flexion tests were performed (ASTM D790) for two biodegradable composites, the first one made of pine resin as matrix and henequen fibers as reinforcement, varying the percentage reinforcement. The second composite made of a matrix of cellulose obtained from a mixture of recycled paper and water and reinforced with maize bract fibers (the leaves that cover the corn cob) and infiltrated with pine resin. Five samples were evaluated for each compound in an Instron universal machine (load cell: 5 kN). For the henequen fibers and pine resin composite specimens were prepared according to standard by the method of hot casting resin, henequen fibers both short and long (127mm, 10mm) were included prior to discharge the matrix. The drying was at room temperature for 1 minute. Tests were conducted with different compositions of matrix / reinforcement by varying the amount of fiber in 26%, 20% and 14% of the specimen. The long fibers longitudinally traverse the specimen (127mm) and short fibers (10 mm) are dispersed in the mixture. The second composite is produced from corn fiber preforms and cellulose by the method of compression molding, dried in oven at 100 ° C for 2 hours. The preforms were infiltrated with pine resin by compressed air (25 psi). We analyzed the effect of corn fiber content in weight percentages of 10%, 30% and 50% with respect to cellulose and two lengths of corn fiber (22.25μm and 487 μm). Under study conditions, corn fiber generates a negative effect on the flexural strength of the compound. By increasing the fiber content of corn and its size, the bending strength decreased in almost all cases, is attributed to a lack of uniformity in the distribution of corn fibers. However, flexural strength values obtained were similar to materials such as wood, found in the literature. This projects the potential of the compound to replace, in certain applications, non-sustainable material

This paper describes the experimental investigation to develop the concrete mix design Nomograph for concrete containing PET as fine aggregate. The physical and mechanical properties were determined by using mix proportion containing 25%, 50% and 75% of PET with water cement ratio (w/c) 0.45, 0.55 and 0.65. The data obtained showed that the inclusion of PET aggregate reduce the strength performances of concrete. All the data obtained were combined into one single graph to develop a preliminary mix design nomograph for PET concrete. The nomograph consist of ; relationship between compressive strength and water cement ratio; relationship between splitting tensile strength water cement ratio; relationship between splitting tensile strength and PET percentage and relationship between compressive strength and PET percentage. The mix design nomograph can be used to assists in selecting the proper mix proportion parameters based on the criteria required.

About 30% of the ceramic production all over the world considered as waste. This huge amount of ceramic waste can be recycled in the construction industry, especially in concrete mix design, which is the main scope of this research. Ceramic wastes could provide many advantages rather than sustainability. It is considered economical and can replace cement, coarse aggregate, and fine aggregate, such as sand. In this study, several concrete mixtures were designed according to the ACI standards to assess the ceramic waste concrete for fresh and hardened properties in terms of slump, concrete compressive, splitting tensile and flexural strengths. Six mixes included with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% replacement of coarse aggregate by crushed ceramic waste. By comparing the results between ceramic waste concrete and conventional concrete specimens, the optimum mix design was found to be at 30%-coarse aggregate replacement. Scanning electron microscope tests performed on the concrete specimens to examine the bond between the particles, the porosity, and the elementary composition of the specimens. The percentage of savings in cost estimated when using the optimum mix design (30% coarse aggregate replacement) was about a 30% reduction in the construction cost per the Egyptian market.
