Effect of natural pozzolana and marble powder on the properties of self-compacting concrete

Influence of limestone dust and natural pozzolan on engineering properties of self-compacting repair mortars

“…In contrast, the SCRM-20NP mixture showed a slightly higher flow time. This is in agreement with previous works [40,18]. …”

“…Indeed, these materials have been used to reduce the hydration heat evolution and to increase strength and durability characteristics of mortar. But only a few studies [18][19][20][21] were carried out to investigate the effect of natural pozzolans on SCC . The main goal of this research is to develop self-compacting repair mortars with available local materials such as limestone dust and natural pozzolan, and the study of the engineering properties behavior of the produced repair materials.…”

Experimental Insights of Using Waste Marble Fines to Modify the Geotechnical Properties of a Lateritic Soil

“…Given the nuisance of the spoil, attempts have been made to incorporate marble waste into many construction materials, which include modifying cement mortar properties (Hwang et al 2008;Corinaldesi et al 2010), application as a recycled aggregate in concrete production (Binici et al 2008;Gencel et al 2012;Topcu et al 2009;Ergun 2011;Hebhoub et al 2011;Belaidi et al 2012;Bacarji et al 2013;Andre et al 2014), as an aggregate in asphaltic concrete (Akbulut, Cahit 2007;Karasahin, Terzi 2007), as a raw material in brick production (Bilgin et al 2012;Eliche-Quesada et al 2012) and as raw material in cement production (Aruntas et al 2010;Aliabdo et al 2014).…”

Study on the Properties of Concrete Incorporated With Various Mineral Admixtures – Limestone Powder and Marble Powder (Review Paper)

“…Hence, the improvement of flexural strength may be attributed to the nucleation around the fine and additions that replace the large and oriented crystals of calcium hydroxide with numerous, small and less oriented crystal (A.S.E. Belaidi et al, 2012) X. CONCLUSIONS…”
