Population growth increased in the need for dwelling which impacted to high demand for bricks. However, bricks have a negative impact on the environment due to the materials and the production prosses. Population growth also effected an increase amount of plastic waste that has a risk to the health and environment. This research aimed to analyze the compressive and flexural strength of brick and ecobrick (PET bottle filled with plastic waste) wall, to know degree of difference in strength between both wall, and to compare the cost of making the wall. This research was started from preparation, manufactured, cured, and tested the specimens. The cost analysis refers to the Bogor district in 2019. The result was obtained compressive strength of brick is higher than ecobrick, which is brick 2,38 MPa and ecobrick 1,31 MPa. Flexural strength of ecobrick is higher than brick, which is ecobrick 1,23 MPa and brick 1,18 MPa. T-test show that compressive strength both wall is significantly different, while the flexural strength both wall is not significantly different. The cost of making ecobrick walls is 20% cheaper than brick walls.

The properties of concrete containing coarse recycled aggregates were investigated. Laboratory trials were conducted to investigate the possibility of using recycled aggregates from the demolition wastes available locally as the replacement of natural coarse aggregates in concrete. A series of tests were carried out to determine the density, compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity of concrete with and without recycled aggregates. The water cement ratio was kept constant for all the mixes. The coarse aggregate in concrete was replaced with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% recycled coarse aggregates. The test results indicated that the replacement of natural coarse aggregates by recycled aggregates up to 40% had little effect on the compressive strength, but higher levels of replacement reduced the compressive strength. A replacement level of 100% causes a reduction of 28% in compressive strength, 36% in split tensile strength and 50% in flexural strength. For strength characteristics, the results showed a gradual decrease in compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity as the percentage of recycled aggregate used in the specimens increased. 100% replacement of natural coarse aggregate by recycled aggregate resulted in 43% savings in the cost of coarse aggregates and 9% savings in the cost of concrete.

Background: A successful restorative material forms a better adhesion, resist the microleakage and releases fluoride. However, existing glass ionomer cements cannot be used as a posterior restorative material in stress bearing areas. A new ionomer called Zirconomer, zirconia reinforced glass ionomer claims to exhibit high physical and biological properties. Aim: To assess and compare the microleakage, compressive strength, flexural strength and fluoride release from zirconomer with ketac silver. Materials & Methods: On twenty caries free premolar teeth (10 per each group), a class v cavity was restored with zirconomer and ketac silver. The microleakage was assessed using dye penetration test and stereomicroscope. The compressive and flexural strengths of these materials were measured using Instron Universal testing machine. The amount of fluoride released from the modified ionomers at pH 5 and pH 7 was estimated using Orion fluoride specific electrode. The obtained data was then subjected to statistical analysis. Results: Data was analysed using paired t-test for intergroup comparisons and unpaired t-test for intragroup comparisons. The overall microleakage (0.5±0.48) of zirconomer was significantly less (p=0.000) compared to ketac silver (1.9±0.83). Zirconomer demonstrated a significant higher compressive strength (330.25±60.14), flexural strength (33.058±2.36) than ketac silver (p= 0.000). Zirconomer demonstrated high fluoride release from day 1 to day 7 at both pH 5 and pH 7. Conclusion: Zirconomer demonstrated better physical and biological properties compared with ketac silver.

The work deals with the use of waste glass to the polymer anchor material based on epoxy resin, primarily for anchoring to a high strength concrete (HSC). The main aim was to use the largest possible amount of the waste packaging glass by reducing the amount of epoxy resin, which is an expensive material and its production has a negative impact on the environment. Within the experimental verification, the influence of waste packaging glass fraction 0–0.63 mm on the final properties of the polymer anchoring material was observed. To determine the optimal formulation compressive strength, flexural strength, chemical resistance, shrinkage and pull-out test were performed. Based on the evaluation of the results the optimal percentage of filling was determined, when the polymer anchor material showed high strengths, minimal shrinkage, good chemical resistance, optimal consistency for anchoring into the HSC and high anchor bolt pull-out strength.

Limestone Fines

Self-compacting concretes (SCC), are hyper-fluid concretes, placed without vibration and are considered as one of the most important innovations of the last decade in construction. SCCs offer many advantages, due to their exceptional characteristics of flow and filling of formwork. Their compositions require a large quantity of fines in order to limit bleeding and segregation. Hence, the use of crushed sand (SC), rich in limestone fines (CF) in the manufacture of self-placing concretes (SCC), can be considered as an alternative source of fillers. These sands reduce the cost of SCC by reducing the high demand for fillers on the one hand and on the other hand, obtaining SCC with good physical and mechanical properties. The main purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of different percentages (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%) of (CF) in crushed sand on SCC performance. The evolution of the compressive strength, the porosity accessible to water and the migration coefficient of the chloride ions were evaluated. The Okamura method was used for the formulation of all SCC mixtures. Sand/mortar (S/M), water/cement (W / C) ratios and superplasticizer content were kept constant. The results show that (CF) reduce the compressive strength but contribute to the reduction of porosity and migration of chloride ions.

Huge amounts of stone cutting waste are generated annually posing a heavy environmental load on nature and resulting in economic challenge to the plants' owners. The conducted researches in this field showed that stone, marble and granite waste could be reused in many applications. This paper aims to investigate the possible application of stone cutting waste in the construction sector. Review process includes investigation of the conducted researches, outcomes of the performed projects, and the impact of this waste on the characteristics of concrete compressive strength, flexural strength, splitting strength, concrete workability, bricks strength, terrazzo tile strength and soil properties. The results revealed that at suitable substitution ratio, this waste can increase the compressive strength of concrete up to 21%, the flexural strength by 33% and splitting strength by 4.3%. In contrast, the compressive strength of bricks decreased by up to 67% at replacement ratio of 100%, and the transverse strength of tiles decreased up to 18% at replacement ratio of 50%. Replacement of soil with stone cutting waste resulted in an improvement in the characteristics of cohesive and sandy soil. Concrete workability decreased significantly with replacement of normal aggregate with stone cutting waste. Such results buttressed the feasibility of reusing this material in the construction sector, which reduces the cost of storage and disposal, and creates a nonconventional income.

Water requirement of normal consistency, setting time and soundness of cement pastes mixed with SiO2 and CaCO3 nanoparticle and the flexural strength and compressive strength of cement mortars mixed with SiO2 and CaCO3 nanoparticles were experimentally studied. Results indicated that the added nano-SiO2 and nano-CaCO3 with a mass account of 4.0 wt. % decreased the setting time and increased the water requirement of normal consistency, flexural strength and compressive strength. And these nanoscaled mineral admixtures did not have a negative impact on cement soundness. The optimal replacement levels of cement by SiO2 and CaCO3 nanoparticles for producing cement mortar with improved strength were 2.0 and 4.0 wt.% respectively.

This investigation includes the use of 15% of glass wastes as a partial substitution to cement in combination with plastic wastes as volumetric replacement to natural coarse aggregate to produce sustainable concrete. Different volumetric replacements of plastic waste to natural coarse aggregate (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%) were used in concrete containing 15% glass powder as a replacement by weight of cement. Generally, the results show that the inclusion of 15% glass powder improves the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength by about 13.3%, 36.3%, and 34.7%respectively at 60 day age in comparison with reference concrete without wastes, also the results show a decrease in water absorption and an increase in dry density. The inclusion of plastic waste aggregate in the presence of 15% glass powder leads to a decrease in the compressive strength, flexural strength, splitting tensile strength, dry density, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and thermal conductivity. The percentage reductions are 59.8%, 46.3%, 43.6%, 20.5%, 28.6%, and 54.4% respectively for concrete specimens that including 100% plastic waste coarse aggregate in comparison with concrete specimens without plastic waste aggregate.

A novel polymer concrete (PC) using an aggregate of ceramsite, fly ash and glass fiber was created. Specimens were used in experiments to investigate its anticorrosion properties to determine the viability of its use in flue gas desulfurization (FGD) stacks. The inclusion of ceramsite reduces both the weight and the cost of the material. The effects of ceramsite and glass fiber on the flexural strength and compressive strength of the concrete were investigated. The experimental results showed that ceramsite reduces the flexural strength and the compressive strength of the concrete, but that the glass fiber increases both. Surface resistance to sulfuric acid corrosion and the microstructure of the corroded concrete were investigated. Specimens of the novel PC and the control PC strongly resisted acid corrosion. Although the specimen surfaces deteriorated, the interior structure of the PC was unaffected after 50 days of acid immersion. Processes by which sulfuric acid corrodes PC surfaces were determined.
