Life Cycle Impact Assessment of Solid Concrete Blocks Incorporating Recycled Fine and Coarse Crushed Ceramic Aggregates

Abstract

Abstract This study investigates the influence of substituting crushed and fine ceramics for natural aggregates in the production of solid concrete blocks. The aim is to determine the impact on the physical and mechanical properties of the materials. ... Practical Applications This research goes somewhere along the lines of exploring the possibility of integrating the ground waste of ceramic materials into the manufacturing process of concrete blocks, in an attempt to make construction sustainable. The ...
