This research aimed to evaluate Kuwait’s current construction and demolition waste (C&D waste) situation by focusing on C&D generation management issues. work also investigated the causes factors affecting understand actual activities proposed strategies minimize generated at local level. study estimated rates based data collected from five projects two in Kuwait. In addition, a questio...

Objectives: To develop an optimum bituminous mix by studying the properties of construction demolition waste aggregate (CDWA) and plastic as a partial replacement natural coarse bitumen. The performance strength conventional modified were studied using marshall stability test. Methods: Construction is produced crushing screening old concrete from waste, which then used for aggregates in pavemen...

The roles of both the data collection method (including proper classification) and the behavior of workers on the generation of demolition waste (DW) are important. By analyzing the effect of the data collection method used to estimate DW, and by investigating how workers' behavior can affect the total amount of DW generated during an actual demolition process, it was possible to identify strat...

The results of an environmental study on concrete manufacture that follows the standard protocol of life cycle assessment are shown in this document. The study has been done for seven types of concrete: one conventional and six containing cement kiln dust (10%), marble sludge (10%) and demolition waste (10%, 80% and 100%) respectively, in partial or total substitution of natural aggregate. Six ...
