Foundation of buildings in soft soil such as quaternary clay is often associated with difficult compaction, settlement, non-uniform and/or excessive deformation, and unsatisfactory shear resistance. The present study aims to assess the possibility using recycled fines from construction demolition waste, mechanically treated gypsum waste concrete powder (WCP), instead ordinary binders or industr...

The construction industry continues to be one of the primary drivers a country's economic progress. As 2022, Philippines’ sector had an annual growth rate 9.2% and increase due Build! (BBB) program. However, is globally known for regularly consuming more raw materials, resulting in natural resource scarcity environmental implications. Construction activities also generated massive volume waste ...

The construction industry is one of the most important sectors for economic and social development. However, it responsible more than 50% depletion natural resources, 40% energy consumption demolition waste (CDW) accounting 30–60% total municipal solid generated worldwide. In this sense, recycling CDW considered a safe alternative to current trend, which can produce environmental benefits, name...

A considerable amount of construction and demolition wood waste (CDWW) is generated, mostly landfilled, contributing to severe environmental effects. The management CDWW a significant challenge as it hazardous contaminated waste. In this context, the circular economy (CE) concept solution comprises minimisation efficient recovery resources. Although much research found in literature on end-of-l...

This paper presents the results of research into construction and demolition (C&D) waste in Colombia. The data analyses are shown a local Latin American context. As situation Colombia is quite similar to that many developing countries worldwide, this its findings potentially applicable economies. Several factors were calculated compared order evaluate which best fit from We also included an...

This study comprehensively assesses using Concrete Waste (CW) and Rubber tire Fly Ash (RFA) eco-recycled materials to enhance the mechanical characteristics of cohesive soil obtained from Al-Araby district in Mosul city/Iraq. These are added by 3, 6, 9% CW 12, 18, 24% RFA dry weight passed sieve (No.40), addition adding cement as an activator soil-RFA mixture. Several techniques have been used,...
