Use of diatomite as partial replacement for Portland cement in cement mortars
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2009)
The aim of the present study is to investigate the use of diatomite as a partial replacement for cement in the production of cement mortar. Diatomite was used at 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% replacement by weight for cement while ...
Possibility of using waste tire rubber and fly ash with Portland cement as construction materials
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)
The growing amount of waste rubber produced from used tires has resulted in an environmental problem. Recycling waste tires has been widely studied for the last 20 years in applications such as asphalt pavement, waterproofing ...
Utilization of waste glass as sand replacement in cement mortar
(Natl Inst Science Communication-Niscair, 2011)
In this study, alkali silica reaction (ASR) expansion and strength characteristics of mortar containing waste glasses are analyzed in terms of waste glass content and glass color. Three different colors of waste glasses ...
Use of pumice fine aggregate as an alternative to standard sand in production of lightweight cement mortar
(Natl Inst Science Communication-Niscair, 2011)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of using granulated pumice as an alternative to fine aggregate in production of lightweight cement mortar. The cement/pumice fine aggregate ratio is 1:3 for pumice ...
