Effects of Waste Powder, Fine and Coarse Marble Aggregates on Concrete Compressive Strength

The use of marble wastes in concrete mixtures, causing air and water pollution, has been promoted in the academic and practical spheres of the construction industry. Although the effects of various forms (powder, fine, coarse and mixed) of this waste on the concrete compressive strength has been subject to a decent number of studies in the literature, the difficulties in reaching specific conclusions on the effect of each test parameter constitute a major restraint for the proliferation of the use of marble wastes in the concrete industry. Most of these studies are far from underscoring all of the parameters affecting the concrete compressive strength. Due to the urgent need in the literature for comprehensive studies on concrete mixtures with marble wastes, the results of the axial compression tests on a total of 429 concrete mixtures with marble aggregates were compiled by paying special attention to reporting all test variables (form and content of marble wastes, water-cement ratio, cement content, proportion of coarse and fine aggregates in all aggregates) affecting the concrete strength. In this context, multivariate regression analyses were carried out on the existing test results. These regression analyses yielded to relationships between the change in concrete compressive strength and the test parameters for each and every form of marble waste (powder, fine and coarse aggregate). The study indicated that independent from the form of marble wastes (as powder, fine aggregate or coarse aggregate), aggregate replacements of up to 50% can yield to significant changes in the concrete compressive strength. In addition, the analytical estimates from the developed equations exhibited a high correlation (a least r value of 0.91) with the experimental results from the previous studies, yielding to rather low error values (RMSE value is 5.06 MPa at max). For this reason, the developed equations can consistently predict the changes in concrete compressive strength with varying amounts and forms of the marble aggregates as well as the other test variables.

Flexural Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Waste Marble Powder Towards Application of Sustainable Concrete
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2022) Karalar, Memduh; Özkılıç, Yasin Onuralp; Aksoylu, Ceyhun; Sabri, Mohanad Muayad Sabri; Beskopylny, Alexey N.; Stel'makh, Sergey A.; Shcherban, Evgenii M.
The performance of waste marble powder as a partial replacement for cement is examined with the aim to achieve more sustainable concrete. Pursuant to this goal, a total of 15 specimens were manufactured and then tested to examine the bending behavior. The effects of longitudinal reinforcement ratio and waste marble powder ratio were selected as variables. The experimental results showed that different proportions of tension reinforcement and waste marble powder had different crack and bending impacts on reinforced concrete beams. As the waste marble powder amount in the concrete mixture is increased from 0% to 40%, it was detected that the crack type changes from a shear crack from to a flexural crack as the amount of waste marble powder increases in the mixing ratio. The experimental findings revealed that the waste marble powder can be successfully used as 10% of the partial replacement of cement. Increasing the waste marble powder ratio by more than 10% can significantly decrease the capacity of the beams, especially when longitudinal reinforcement ratio is high. The influence of waste marble as partial replacement on the capacity decreases as the longitudinal reinforcement ratio decreases. Therefore, 10%-20% marble waste can be utilized as a replacement for cement when the longitudinal reinforcement ratio is close to the balanced ratio and more than 20% waste marble ratio should be avoided for any cases.

Improvement in Bending Performance of Reinforced Concrete Beams Produced With Waste Lathe Scraps
(MDPI, 2022) Karalar, Memduh; Özkilic, Yasin Onuralp; Deifalla, Ahmed Farouk; Aksoylu, Ceyhun; Arslan, Musa Hakan; Ahmad, Mahmood; Sabri, Mohanad Muayad Sabri
In this study, the impacts of different proportions of tension reinforcement and waste lathe scraps on the failure and bending behavior of reinforced concrete beams (RCBs) are clearly detected considering empirical tests. Firstly, material strength and consistency test and then 1/2 scaled beam test have been carried out. For this purpose, a total of 12 specimens were produced in the laboratory and then tested to examine the failure mechanism under flexure. Two variables have been selected in creating text matrix. These are the longitudinal tension reinforcement ratio in beams (three different level) and volumetric ratio of waste lathe scraps (four different level: 0%, 1%, 2% and 3%). The produced simply supported beams were subjected to a two-point bending test. To prevent shear failure, sufficient stirrups have been used. Thus, a change in the bending behavior was observed during each test. With the addition of 1%, 2% and 3% waste lathe scraps, compressive strength escalated by 11.2%, 21.7% and 32.5%, respectively, compared to concrete without waste. According to slump test results, as the waste lathe scraps proportion in the concrete mixture is increased, the concrete consistency diminishes. Apart from the material tests, the following results were obtained from the tests performed on the beams. It is detected that with the addition of lathe waste, the mechanical features of beams improved. It is observed that different proportions of tension reinforcement and waste lathe scraps had different failure and bending impacts on the RCBs. While there was no significant change in stiffness and strength, ductility increased considerably with the addition of lathe waste.
