Physical characterization methods for supplementary cementitious materials [PDF]
Materials and Structures, 2014 The main supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) that are used today are industrial by-products. In most cases the quality of these materials cannot be controlled during their production, resulting in materials with varied characteristics. The adequate physical characterization of SCMs is important to better predict their performance and optimize ...

Reutilization of Ceramic Waste as Supplementary Cementitious Material
, 2023 The production of Portland cement (PC) has the highest environmental impact among the different components of concrete. Also, although ceramic prod-ucts are consumed worldwide and constitute a significant fraction of construction and demolition waste, significant amounts of ceramic waste (BCW) are simply landfilled or used as road sub-bases.
