Cement composites like mortar and concrete are the most widely used construction material
in the world. Around 90% of the total carbon footprints of concrete manufacturing comes from …

This paper presents an extensive critical review of various properties of self-compacting
concrete made with industrial by-products. The construction industry has recognized the …

There is a need to improve the sustainability of concrete by incorporating waste by-products
and at the same time controlling the use of precious river sand as well as invaluable land …

Solid waste management is a global challenge. Slurry generated from granite processing
industries is one of the major sources of total solid waste production. This paper reports the …

In previous studies by the authors, it was found that a lower water–binder ratio led to
enhanced dispersion of carbon nanotube (CNT) in the cement matrix. The objective of this …

The rapid urbanization and industrialization in last few decades has led to depletion of the
construction materials like sand and accumulation of industrial wastes. The detrimental …

Novel cement based mortars containing bottom ash (BA) and phase change material (PCM)
as thermal energy storing material were developed for thermal controlling of buildings. Form …

This study investigated the performance of alkali-activated, cement-based controlled low-
strength materials (CLSMs). The CLSM was produced by mixing fly ash, steel slag, sodium …

To follow resource conservation, the production of optimized and sustainable structures
through the use of insulating materials, such as foam concrete, has become a trend in …

This article addresses the multiple effects of nano-silica and hybrid fibres on the properties
of an Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) incorporating waste …
