Ceramic Waste In Concrete

About 30 of the daily production of the ceramic industry become waste amin sibak el sherbiny abadir 2016.

Ceramic waste in concrete.

Some investigations have suggested that ceramic wastes are good materials which could substitute conventional aggregates in concrete 7 8 9. Ceramic waste can be used as a partial replacement of cement or as a partial replacement of fine aggregate sand as a supplementary addition to achieve different properties of concrete. Ceramic waste water absorption is 0 08 more than conventional aggregate. The use of ceramic waste as fine aggregate in cvc and mortar was assessed by various researchers 16 17 18 19 20 21 22.

The use of recy cled ceramic tile waste as aggregate in concrete would contribute to relieve industrial waste disposal problems and would help maintain natural aggregate resources fengli et al. Ceramic wastes are found to be suitable for usage as substitution for fine and coarse aggregates in concrete production. It was noted that using a high content of ceramic waste as fine aggregate had a negative impact on the workability of the fresh concrete and workability admixtures. Concluded that it is feasible to reuse recycled ceramic aggregate under 9 5 mm as partial replacement of natural ag gregate in concrete.

Compressive strength is best at 20 replacement reaching 93 45 98 84 to that of conventional concrete at 7 and 28 days. The influence of ceramic tiles wastes on the structural properties of concrete made using laterite was recently investigated 10. Ceramic aggregate can be a possible alternative of concrete aggregate pacheco torgal jalali 2010. It is most essential to develop eco friendly concrete from ceramic waste.

The objective of this investigation is to study and evaluation of the effects of. The compressive strength decreased if the ceramic waste replaced natural coarse aggregate beyond 25 by weight. The ceramic waste aggregate should be pre saturated by water to offset its high absorption. This study is an investigation into the utilization of waste tiles as.

Water absorption of ceramic waste aggregate on strength properties of ceramic aggregate concrete. Ceramic waste can be used in concrete to improve its strength and other durability factors. It has been reported that ceramics in the form of hollow bricks used in non structural concrete has lower compressive strength than that of control concrete without the use of hollow bricks. In this regard the properties of ceramic wastes are such that they would be potentially suitable for reuse in a composition of mortar or concrete.

This waste has no use except landfilling. 20 concrete is used with 0 48 water cement ratio.
