Abstract
Abstract
The present study aims to find out the optimal use of ceramic powder and ceramic aggregate (both fine and coarse) as a possible substitute for Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC 43 grade) and natural aggregate (fine and coarse), respectively, in concrete, where focused on investigating the mechanical properties of waste ceramic concrete. The performance of this modified concrete was evaluated in terms of Compressive Strength (CS), Tensile Strength (TS), Flexural Strength (FS), and Combined Flexural and Torsional strength (FTS) obtained based on various experimental tests conducted on a total of 192 samples (48 cubes, 48 cylinders, 96 beams). The test results showed that ceramic waste material as a partial replacement for natural aggregate, cement, and fine aggregate provides better performance in terms of CS, TS, and FTS at optimal percentages- 20% ceramic aggregate, 10% ceramic powder, and 10% ceramic fine aggregate (Fineness Modulus 2.2) respectively in M25 grade concrete. Using ceramic waste as a partial replacement to prepare concrete has a lot of benefits from the economic, environmental, and technological point of view. Moreover, it offers a possibility for improving concrete's durability, which is vital.
