The study described sought further understanding of the synergies in a mix of CDW pozzolans, containing (calcareous and siliceous) concrete and glass waste, used to prepare ternary eco-cement paste bearing 7% of the binary blend at concrete/glass rat...

Decarbonising the construction industry’s substantial ecological footprint demands credible substitutes that preserve structural performance while valorising waste. Although construction and demolition waste (CD&W) has been widely studied,...

This study aims at the evaluation of different formulations of concrete made with calcined clays and limestone (LC3 cement) exposed to aggressive environments. The study includes the evaluation of fresh and hardened properties and a comprehensive eva...

Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are commonly used in the manufacture of commercial cements with lower clinker content and carbon footprints, enabling environmental and performance improvements. The present article evaluated a ternary ceme...

The construction industry’s escalating environmental footprint, coupled with the underutilization of construction waste streams, necessitates innovative approaches to sustainable material design. This study investigates the dual functionality o...

The massive stockpiles of Bayer-process red mud (BRM) severely compromise soil integrity, necessitating the urgent development of efficient large-scale utilization strategies. BRM contains large amounts of calcium, silicon, and aluminum. Theoreticall...

This study systematically investigates the effects of individual and combined incorporation of graphene oxide (GO) and nano-silica sol (NS) on the macroscopic properties and microstructure of cement-based grouting materials, with emphasis on their sy...

There has been a significant movement in the past decades to develop alternative sustainable building material such as geopolymer cement/concrete to control CO2 emission. Industrial waste contains pozzolanic minerals that fulfil requirements to devel...

This systematic literature review (SLR) aims to present and analyze the recent research on the effect of recycled glass (RG) on the durability of concrete applications in terms of transport properties, chemical attack, alkali-silica reaction (ASR), a...

Coal gangue, as a predominant solid byproduct of the global coal industry, poses severe environmental challenges because of its massive accumulation and low utilization rate. This review systematically synthesizes and analyzes published experimental...
