Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the use of recycled construction cementitious materials (RCCM) and red mud (RM) as eco-friendly alternatives to traditional materials in alkali-activated slag cement mixtures, reducing the environmental impact of construction waste.
- Two experimental batches were created, one incorporating only RCCM and the other combining RCCM and RM, with results indicating that the combination can significantly enhance compressive strength by up to 42.2% when optimized proportions are used.
- The findings reveal that while increasing RCCM and RM negatively affects workability, it improves drying shrinkage and mechanical strength, suggesting that these materials can serve as sustainable substitutes in construction.
