Abstract:
Strength development of lime-pozzolana mortars is affected by the fineness of the pozzolan. This paper examines the effect of the fineness of artificial pozzolana on the strength development of lime-pozzolana mixtures. An artificial pozzolana produced by calcining clays from Oman was used in this study. The artificial pozzolana is locally known as “Sarooj”, and is currently being used in a big project for the restoration of historical monuments undertaken by the Omani Ministry of National Heritage and Culture. The artificial pozzolana was ground to various degrees of fineness, blended with hyd

Abstract:
Green concrete, also known as sustainable concrete, is a building material that aims to reduce environmental impact by using natural, recycled, or sustainable materials in its production. One way to achieve sustainability in concrete is to replace cement with pozzolanic materials, which not only reduces the carbon footprint but also improves the performance of concrete and reduces its cost. This study aims to use natural materials that can partially or completely replace cement and conventional aggregates in concrete mixes. pozzolanic gravel (GPoz) replaced coarse aggregate, basaltic sand (SBa

The artificial pozzolana materials used in the manufacturing of PPC such as fly ash, silica fume, rice husk, blast furnace slag, are actually industrial waste, which is produced in large amounts. These artificial pozzolana materials when used in concrete can reduce consumption of natural resources, diminish the effect of pollutants in the environment and it is economical and reliable.

Abstract:
A combined reaction of hydration and carbonation takes place in hydraulic lime and lime-pozzolana mortars. Hydration reactions are the first reaction and carbonation of lime is the complementary reaction in the strength gain. Competition between these two reactions can occur in lime-pozzolana mortars if the pozzolanic material has low reactivity with lime, leading to the consumption of lime by carbonation reaction. The degree and the order of these reactions are strongly influenced by the moisture content. Hydration reactions are enhanced under moist conditions while carbonation is delayed. Cu

Abstract:
The influence of time on rheological properties of modified lime plaster is analyzed in this paper. Effect of composition of mixture is examined as well. Especially changes of paste due to hydrophobic and pozzolanic admixture. Main aim of rheological test is determination of flow curves, obtained by applying a succession of constant strain rates for short times. Base on performed experiments, it can be concluded that hydrophobic admixture eliminated influence of pozzolana. Also both time and temperature caused significant changes in rheological properties. Increasing values decreases the flow

Abstract:
Sulfate attack and its effects are important from both scientific and industrial viewpoints. Itis perceived that cements containing pozzolan have better performance in sulfate solutions,since the pozzolanic reactions reduce the quantity of calcium hydroxide and increasecalcium silicate hydrate.

Abstract:
This work deals with anomalous concentrations of natural mordenite in the southeast of Spain. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies evidenced that the samples contain mainly monomineral zeolitic phase of mordenite (70% to 74%), usually accompanied by smectite (montmorillonite), the principal component of bentonite. A study of the applicability of these zeolites is presented to establish the potential use as pozzolanic cements. For comparative purposes, synthetic commercial mordenite is also characterized and tested. The initial mixtures were prepared using

Abstract:
Today, lime-pozzolan mortars are being used in the repair of historic buildings, replacing the lime-cement mortars that were previously used in this practice, but were incompatible with historic mortars. It has been observed in laboratory research and also in practice that some lime-pozzolan mortars can lose strength over time. The cause of this behaviour is not fully understood, but the main reason seems to be the instability and breakdown of the aluminate phases. In this paper, the role of amorphous Al2O3 content in pozzolans on the long-term mechanical properties of lime-pozzolan mortars is

Abstract:
Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials, consisting of cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates, and water. Traditionally, Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), river sand, and Hard Broken Granite (HBG) stone are used in concrete production. However, the over-extraction of these natural resources has led to environmental concerns and increased costs. This has created a need for sustainable alternatives that maintain concrete’s quality and performance. This study investigates the partial replacement of fine aggregates with copper slag and granite powder in M25 grade concrete.
