GREEN CONCRETE FROM INDUSTRIAL WASTES: A SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL
Abstract eng: As disposal and treatment of industrial wastes are often costly and hazardous for the environment, its use in concrete mixing can lead to a greener solution to environmental conservation and pave the way for sustainable construction. In this study, recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) and fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) scrap aggregate (FSA) were used as raw materials for producing sustainable green concrete. This study utilized these two industrial wastes and investigated hardened properties of green concrete with different replacement levels of RCA and FSA. In addition, life cycle assessment of this new generation green concrete was performed to evaluate the environmental impact.
