The use of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is one the best solutions to mitigate problem ecological instability created by waste. RCA has less crushing strength, impact resistance, specific gravity, and more water absorption capacity than natural (NA). To overcome compromised properties RCA, a comprehensive study supported experimental investigation required. This paper prescribes methodology...

The use of plastic is increasing day by day, although steps were taken to reduce its consumption. This creates substantial garbage every day which is much unhealthy. A healthy and sustainable reuse of plastics offers a host of advantages. The suitability of recycled plastics as coarse aggregate in concrete and its advantages are discussed here. The initial questions arising of the bond strength...

Landfill sites are becoming over crowded and expensive for waste disposal, efforts are made to minimize the quantities of materials that are delivered to landfills. The threat due to leaching of non-biodegradable materials like waste plastics, scrap tyres. e-waste may contaminate the soil and ground water. If the production of waste cannot be prevented, then it is attractive to create an altern...

Modern society demands more sustainable and economical construction elements. One of the available options for manufacturing this type element is valorisation end-of-life waste, such as, example, recycling polymers used in industry. The these wastes reduces costs avoids pollution generated by their landfill disposal. With aim helping to obtain material, work describes a methodology polyethylene...

A slab of concrete harnesses kinetic energy whenever it is stepped on. This energy, created by 5 millimeters of flex in the material, is then either stored by lithium polymer batteries contained within the slabs or transmitted immediately to streetlights or other electronics located close by. The current model, made from stainless steel, recycled car tires and recycled aluminum, also includes a...

The atomic polymer technology in form of mesoporous inorganic polymer (MIP) can effectively improve material durability and performance of concrete by dramatically increase inter/intragranular bond strength of concrete at nano-scale. The strategy of MIP is fundamentally different from most additives currently on the market for industrial applications. When MIP is added to a concrete or masonry ...
