Crushed Tile Coarse Aggregate Concrete

Abstract: This paper investigates the potential of crushed tiles as coarse aggregate in concrete. Test results of bulk, saturated surface dry (SSD) and apparent specific gravities, bulk unit weight, water absorption, resistance to abrasion, percent of voids and grading (performed as per ASTM standards) on two types of crushed tiles were compared with the results of conventional crushed stone aggregate. Also included are results from tests on concrete cylinders under uniaxial compression, split tension, and beams under f… Show more

“…The interest of developing concrete from non conventional raw materials is indispensable for the protection of the environment and also for the economic by reducing costs [6][7] . Innovative solutions for recycling of tyres have been the focus of much research, such as the addition of the scrap tyre rubber in asphalt, concretes and polymers [8][9][10][11] ; as well as incineration for vapour production and energy production 8,12 .…”

“…The elementary mechanical properties of concrete, such as strength and durability, encourage its use in all types of construction. As a result, the widespread use of concrete in the twenty-first century would result the depletion of ingredient [1]. As a result, alternate sources must be found to substitute such high-quality ingredients.…”

“…The rate of growth in waste has put pressure on the ceramic industries to find a solution for its disposal. Meanwhile, conventional crushed stone aggregate reserves are being depleted rapidly, particularly in some desert regions of the world [3] Use of inorganic industrial residual products in making concrete will lead to sustainable concrete design and a greener environment [4]. The need to develop concrete with nonconventional aggregates is urgent for environmental as well as economic reasons.…”
