Use of olive stone as an additive in cement lime mortar to improve thermal insulation

The process of olive oil extraction produces olive stone, a residue which cause considerable problems of disposal. This paper proposes and analyzes an original use of olive stone in order to improve the heat insulation performances of cement lime mortar and reduce its final density. To this purpose, the paper illustrates a set of small-scale tests, which were conducted on specimens of cement li...

Comparison Study of Class F and Class C Fly Ashes as Cement Replacement Material on Strength Development of Non-Cement Mortar

Cement is the most widely used material for construction. However, the cement production has a negative impact on the environment, as it is one of the contributors to global warming. The production of one ton of cement also produces approximately one ton of CO2. This encourages to the search for more environmentally friendly materials as cement replacement. The aims of this study are to compare...

Utilization of waste glass as sand replacement in cement mortar

In this study, alkali silica reaction (ASR) expansion and strength characteristics of mortar containing waste glasses are analyzed in terms of waste glass content and glass color. Three different colors of waste glasses (white, green and brown) are replaced with sand at ratios of 10%, 30% and 100% by weight. The mixtures used in this study did not show a considerable ASR expansion. All batches ...
