Evaluating and comparing the effect of zeolite, micro-silica, and fly ash on the mechanical properties of recycled concrete made of 100% recycled aggregates [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019 Today, restrictions on access to natural aggregate resources in concrete production have become one of the problems in many countries. Concrete, as one of the most widely used human products, is a factor in consuming a large amount of aggregate.

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Rapid industrialization and urban growth have driven a rising demand for cement, yet ordinary Portland cement (OPC) production remains energy‐intensive and a major source of CO2 emissions. The partial substitution of OPC with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) offers a sustainable route to reduce environmental impact, production costs, and ...

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Currently, many researchers use industrial or agricultural by‐products (waste) as raw materials for the construction sector. These wastes are economical and help preserve the environment through good waste management. For this purpose, oil palm mesocarp fibers (OPMFs) are used at various volume concentrations (0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1%) for the ...

Performance of Concrete Using Water Hyacinth Ash as a Partial Cement Substitute
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials, with cement as its primary component. However, cement production significantly contributes to CO2 emissions, posing environmental challenges. This study investigates the use of water hyacinth ash (WHA) as a sustainable partial replacement for cement in C‐30 grade concrete.
