Since concrete is a fundamental component of all types of construction, many researchers are concentrating on developing High Performance Concrete (HPC) using efficient manufacturing processes. Nano silica is a quartz and silica dust this can be replaced instead of cement to achieve great strength...

Bricks have been extensively adopted for centuries and continue to play a vital role in the construction industry. Nevertheless of its dependable workability and accessibility, fired clay brick production has been recognized for its comparatively high energy and resource requirements. Traditional...

In this study, an attempt was made to characterize ferrochrome slag as cement-bound layers of flexible pavement in view of its leaching behavior. Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) test was conducted to assess the mobility of toxic elements in ferrochrome slag. Ferrochrome slag...

Dumping of construction wastes has become one of the serious concerns in the construction industries subsequent to the scarcity of construction materials, specifically aggregates. Extensive research works have been performed to utilize the dumped waste as aggregates, yet its substandard properties...

Industrial by-products such as cementitious materials or aggregates have the potential to mitigate the adverse environmental effects associated with traditional cement manufacture. Geopolymer Concrete (GPC) is more eco-friendly than conventional concrete because it does not require cement. GPC with...

The sequential nitration and magnetization of waste styrofoam to form a novel adsorbent has been investigated. The novelty of this study assigned approach lies in the introduction of an anionic surface on the styrofoam, enabling it to adsorb cationic Pb2+ ion, combined with its magnetic property...

Biodiesel can be derived from the oils of fruit seeds for powering diesel engines, and this study focuses on extracting biodiesel from Manilkara Zapota seeds, which are readily available and not intended for human consumption. The primary aim is to underscore the use of non-edible oils as a cost...

Nowadays cement industry power plant bed wastes can be used to create aerated concrete blocks for widespread usage in the construction sector instead of sand. The optimum materials for building enclosures for a variety of uses include aerated concretes. To enhance the physical and mechanical...

Composites gain utility when filler materials are incorporated. The qualities of the material are changed when filler components are added. In recent years, the use of bio-based components in polymers and polymer composites has significantly increased. Agricultural wastes are employed in this case...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact that using marble sludge powder as a partial replacement for cement in concrete can have. Experiments were conducted to investigate a variety of characteristics of fiber-reinforced concrete using both fresh concrete and concrete that had been...

Bio-composite materials are gaining traction in various industries as sustainable alternatives to synthetic fiber-reinforced composites. This study investigated the impact of fine powders loading on the tensile, transverse, and compressive characteristics of hybrid composites composed of Iroko...

Concrete is the broadly adopted composite material in the construction arena. The growing need for cost-effective housing is resulting in the depletion of environmental resources such as river sand and gravel, which are essential components in the manufacture of concrete. However, the manufacturing...
