Feasibility Studies of Engineering Properties of Coarse Aggregates from Demolition Waste and Natural Aggregates for Road Construction
Abstract: Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste constitutes a major portion of total solid waste origination in the world and most of it is used in landfills. The disposal of this construction and demolition waste is becoming a major concern as it is disposed unscientifically in India. The C&D waste is usually dumped on the sides of canals, minor roads and at the entrance of the cities and towns. This causes environmental …

Role of Supplementary Cementitious Materials in Enhancing Strength and Workability of Green Concrete
Abstract: This collective review of ten seminal papers on green concrete highlights the growing emphasis on sustainable construction practices through the use of recycled materials, industrial by-products, and supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). The studies consistently demonstrate that green concrete can significantly reduce carbon emissions, enhance durability, and maintain structural integrity comparable to conventional mixes. Experimental investigations confirm the viability of incorporating fly ash, silica fume, slag, quarry dust, and recycled concrete …
