This study aims to valorise the mineral wastes in particular glass wastes, brick wastes and clay to produce granulated foam glass at different characteristics (G1: Granulate foam glass without additive; G2: Granulate foam glass with 10% clay and Granulate foam glass with 10% Brick wastes). The aggregates of foam glass were manufactured at a temperature 850 пїЅ C from glass wastes (cullet), brick wastes, clay and limestone as a foaming agent. Mixtures of Self-compacting mortar have been developed with elaborated fo...

The foundry sand wastes (FSW) are likely to constitute as raw material for the manufacture of cement mortars or concretes at a low cost. For this reason, present work has main objective to use the foundry sand wastes in self-compacting mortar as a fine aggregate (by a partial sand substitution). An experimental tests were carried out to evaluate fresh (slump test) and hardened (bulk density, compressive and flexural strength and elastic modulus) properties of SCMs based on FSW. The Natural Sand (NS) is substituted...
