Overview

Experimental study evaluates mechanical and environmental performance of concrete mixtures with cement replacements, suggesting sustainable production methods.

Key Points

  • The aim is to assess the performance of high-strength concrete made with ternary and quaternary binder blends as a sustainable alternative to traditional mixes.
  • Conducted an experimental study on high-strength concrete incorporating silica fume, metakaolin, rice husk ash, and limestone filler.
  • Quantified mechanical and durability properties at 28, 91, and 180 days and performed microstructural analysis.
  • Evaluated environmental performance based on global warming potential of the mixtures.
  • At 28 days, only 3 of 10 mixtures showed decreases in mechanical strength compared to reference concrete.
  • Most ternary and quaternary mixtures demonstrated significant improvements in strength and durability at 91 and 180 days.
  • Higher cement replacement levels resulted in lower global warming potential for the concrete mixtures.
