Abstract

This paper explores the development of sustainable concrete by utilizing waste ceramic aggregate and partial cement replacement with limestone powder. The construction industry’s reliance on non-renewable materials raises significant environmental concerns. By integrating waste ceramic as a coarse aggregate and limestone powder as a partial cement substitute, this study aims to reduce the environmental impact of concrete production while maintaining structural performance. Experimental results demonstrate that the modified concrete mix exhibits favorable mechanical properties, contributing to sustainable construction practices. The construction industry is facing significant environmental challenges due to the depletion of natural resources and generation of waste materials. This study investigates the feasibility of using waste ceramic aggregate (WCA) and partial cement replacement with limestone (LC) to develop sustainable concrete. The effects of WCA and LC on the workability, compressive strength, and durability of concrete are evaluated. The results show that the incorporation of WCA and LC improves the sustainability of concrete while maintaining its mechanical properties.
