Advancing Sustainable Concrete: A Review for Eco-Friendly Construction
Abstract
The most popular building material in the world is concrete, however because of its negative effects on the environment from excessive cement use and the removal of natural aggregates, sustainable alternatives must be investigated. The potential of recycled red brick powder (RRBP) and quarry limestone dust (QLD) as partial substitutes for cement and fine aggregates, respectively, in low-load concrete applications is assessed in this paper. According to the results of a review of thirty research publications, it is possible to utilize up to 20% RRBP and 40% QLD efficiently without suffering a noticeable reduction in strength. In addition to preserving adequate workability, mechanical performance, and durability, the combined use increases the sustainability of concrete. Future research goals, implementation issues, and the impact of these materials on concrete qualities are also covered in this study.
