Description: Sustainable Construction Materials by Habeeb Lateef Muttashar Alzuabidi Rapid industrial growth has witnessed the ever-increasing utilization of sand from rivers for various construction purposes, which caused an exploitation of rivers beds and disturbed the ecosystem. This book presents an investigation into the capacity of spent garnet (silicate minerals) as sand replacement as a sustainable construction material. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Rapid industrial growth has witnessed the ever-increasing utilization of sand from rivers for various construction purposes, which has caused disruption to natural ecosystems. Sustainable Construction Materials: Recycled Spent Garnet presents an investigation into the capacity for these minerals to serve as a sand replacement and as a viable, sustainable construction material to help mitigate the current rate of exploitation of river sand. Features: Presents the effects of spent garnet on the fresh and hardened characteristics of self-compacting geopolymer concrete in terms of workability and mechanical strength. Examines spent garnet with regard to concrete durability in response to carbonation, as well as sulphate and acid attack. Includes a comprehensive review of the existing literature in the field, including past developments in self-compacting geopolymer concrete, as well as the ongoing activities in the field of spent garnet-based concrete production. Author Biography Dr. Habeeb Lateef Muttashar is a researcher and consultantin the area of civil engineering at the University of Technology,Malaysia. Dr. Habeeb has conducted studies of geopolymer concrete,self-compacting concrete, recycling waste materials, greentechnology, and high-volume biomass mortar.
