Ceramic Waste In Concrete

Ordinary strength concrete with ceramic waste as substitute of conventional coarse aggregates.

Ceramic waste in concrete. It was concluded that the use of 50 by weight replacement of fine natural aggregate by ceramic waste could produce concrete without affecting the performance of hardened concrete. The ceramic waste to be adopted is broken tiles from local shops. In order to reuse and so to reduce. It was reported that ceramic based laterized concrete performed considerably well when compared to the conventional concrete.

Floor tile waste aggregates ftwa in concrete applications can substantially reduce the negative environmental effects and exhaustion of the natural resources. Moreover it can reduce environmental problems related to aggregate mining and waste disposal. Highly resistant to chemical and biological forces. Ceramic waste is hard and durable 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 3.

Overall ceramic waste utilization can solve problems of aggregate shortages in various construction sites. 1 23 2013 ceramic materials represent around 45 of construction and demolition waste and originate not only from the building process but also as rejected bricks and tiles from industry. Ceramic waste can be used in concrete to improve its strength and other durability factors. 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.

They withstand chemical erosion that occurs in other materials subjected to acidic or caustic environments. Properties of ceramic powder inorganic. To find a use of ceramic waste produced. Abstract the reuse of ceramic waste as a substitute for coarse aggregate in concrete has been investigated.

The use of cwp as partial replacement of cement attracted the attention of several researchers 6 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35. Grade concrete will be adopted. In this research study the opc cement has been replaced by ceramic waste powder accordingly in the range of 0 10 20. A ceramic material is an inorganic non metallic often crystalline oxide nitride or carbide material.

The ceramic wastes are of three types namely tiles clay bricks and flowerpot were used. Some elements such as carbon or silicon may be considered ceramics ceramic materials are brittle hard strong in compression and weak in shearing and tension. Ceramic waste concrete cwc will be made with these tiles at 0 15 20 25 and 30.
