Abstract Most supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are predominantly poorly-crystalline or amorphous. Their reactivity is routinely evaluated through SEM image analysis (SEM/IA), which a laborious and resource intensive technique. Quantitative X-ray diffraction (QXRD) provides an alternative, facilitating simultaneous evaluation of reaction kinetics phase assemblages. However, QXRD requi...

The current study investigated the development of a sustainable thermo-chemical approach to effectively optimize MgO-waste activated GGBS formulations, using four types magnesium oxide (MgO) waste materials with ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) develop binary cementitious systems (MgO-GGBS). This stems from expected complexity binder optimization outcomes into simpler analytic form, ...

The current era shows that innovation and reuse of industrial by-products are necessary to protect the environment sustainable development. production cement highly harms in terms CO2 emissions. Cement contributes nearly 5.0% global pollution is induced by present study role supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) construction industries. two different SCMs, namely cinder processed granulat...

The present experimental research investigates the feasibility of partial substitution of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) with ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) for the modification of bitumen and porous asphalt mixtures. The control asphalt mixture and the seven modified porous asphalt mixtures have been analyzed separately and their performance was compared. Modified bitumen and asp...

Abstract The use of alternative materials in production concrete is being well normal, since it makes two possibilities improving within the composites, additionally except standard economic system. This paper offers laboratory research record approximately utilization aluminium dross (AD), floor granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) as partial cement. replacement cement turned into performed sp...

This study investigates the use of industrial wastes like Fly Ash (FA), Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slag (GGBS), and Quartz Powder (QP) as alternatives to cement, Copper (CS) fine aggregate in Geopolymer blocks (GPB). The mix ratio 1:3 one part binder 3 parts copper slag, 8M, 10M NaOH, Na2SiO3 solutions are used Alkaline Activator Solution (AAS). Two types GPB1 (Mortar Blocks) GPB2 (Aerated...

PURPOSE Stabilisation/solidification (S/S) has emerged as an efficient and cost-effective technology for the treatment of contaminated soils. However, the performance of S/S-treated soils is governed by several intercorrelated variables, which complicates the optimisation of the treatment process design. Therefore, it is desirable to develop process envelopes, which define the range of operatin...

In this fast-moving construction world, the main problem of conventional concrete is formation carbon-di-oxide (CO2). This due to emission CO2 during production cement. As a solution for this, Geopolymer (GPC) was invented it has capability produce nil emissions. addition in our modern world everyone wished complete project within short span time but takes more setting and curing. disadvantage ...
