Abstract:Portland cement is one of the most used construction materials. However, its production represents between 5 and 7% of the total CO2 emissions. On the other hand, during construction and demolition activities, different wastes are produced, including recycled brick powder (RBP), whose potential as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) has been demonstrated in the literature. This research aims to evaluate RBP as a partial replacement for Portland cement in concrete. 5 to 10% of Portland cement was replac… Show more
