Abstract:
In response to rising demands in infrastructure projects, the construction industry has seen a sharp increase in the use of natural aggregates, alongside significant growth in solid waste from construction demolitions. This has highlighted the need to reuse demolition waste materials, such as vitrified tile pieces, vitrified tile powder, and granite powder, to reduce solid waste and address natural aggregate shortages for concrete production. Vitrified tile waste arises not only from demolished structures but also from manufacturing processes, where 20-30% of produced material becomes waste. Reusing these materials can help mitigate natural resource constraints and reduce construction waste. In a study, crushed vitrified tile powder and granite powder were used to replace fine aggregates in concrete. The vitrified tile powder was substituted for fine aggregates at 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% in an M20 grade concrete mix. Various concrete mixes were tested for workability, compressive strength, and split tensile strength after 7 and 28 days of curing. Results indicated that the concrete's strength increased with the addition of vitrified tile powder, with an optimal replacement level of up to 20%. This approach demonstrates a sustainable alternative in concrete production, improving both waste management and resource efficiency.
