Concrete With Ceramic Waste Aggregate

According to binnici 2007 the use of ceramic waste coarse aggregate concrete has increased because it has various advantages over other cementitious materials.

Concrete with ceramic waste aggregate.

Reuse of ceramic waste as aggregate in concrete. Use of hazardous industrial wastes in concrete making will lead to greener environment. This study intends to use of ceramic tile aggregate in concrete production. Homogeneous ceramic tiles waste can be used as a.

Ceramic tiles were sieved into fine and coarse aggregates in line with standards. The properties of ceramic waste coarse aggregate concrete are not significantly different from those of conventional concrete. Six ceramic waste coarse aggregate concrete mixes were designed by the volumetric method with different water cement ratios 0 35 0 40 0 45 0 50 0 55 and 0 60. Thus the current study focuses on the mechanical characterization of waste ceramic wall and floor tiles aggregate concrete.

The volume of individual ingredients was the same in both the ceramic waste. By comparing the results between ceramic waste concrete and conventional concrete specimens the optimum mix design found to be at 30 coarse aggregate replacement. Ceramic wastes sourced from construction and demolition wastes were separated from other debris and crushed using a quarry metal hammer. In this study an attempt has been made to find the suitability of the ceramic industrial wastes as a possible substitute for.

Similarly six more conventional concrete mixes were designed with crushed stone coarse aggregate. The ceramic wastes are of three types namely tiles clay bricks and flowerpot were used.
