Volcanic ashes are pyroclastic materials commonly found in many regions of the world.
Many deposits of volcanic ashes are unexploited, despite their potential interest for several …

Pumice that formed during the solidification of molten lava under rapid cooling is a natural
sponge-like lightweight aggregate. In this study, it was aimed to enlighten the readers about …

The study aimed to examine the properties of lightweight high-calcium fly ash geopolymer
concrete (LWGC) containing crushed clay brick and pumice aggregates. A high-calcium fly …

The production of cement releases an enormous amount of CO 2 into the environment.
Besides, industrial wastes like silica fume and fly ash need effective utilization to reduce …

Carbon dioxide emissions from cement production have a significant impact on the
environment. The huge energy consumption in the cement production process is also a …

Production of porous and lightweight clay bricks with enhanced thermal conductivity is
studied. Pumice was used as an additive to an earthenware brick to produce the pores. SEM …

The pozzolanic potential, mechanical strength, and stress-strain behavior of a locally
available wheat straw ash (WSA) as a partial substitute of cement was evaluated in this …

Cement production emits a significant carbon dioxide (CO2) gas, dramatically influencing
the environment. Furthermore, a large amount of energy is consumed during the cement …

In the present study, macro-mechanical and micro-pore structure tests were conducted on
aeolian sand lightweight aggregate concrete. A fractal theory was used to characterize the …

Soil–cement is an environmentally friendly road construction technique for base and
subbase materials, which allows employing soils placed in the right-of-way of the road or in …
