Incorporation of ceramic waste into binary and ternary soil-cement formulations for the production of solid bricks

The incorporation of ceramic waste (CW) into solid bricks made with soil-cement mixtures has been studied in recent years. The aim of this study was to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of solid bricks made with soil-cement mixtures uniaxially pressed with the addition of construction waste, having hydrated lime and CPII F-32 Portland cement as binding agents to be used in formulations. Raw materials were characterized by particle size analysis, Atterberg limits, XRF and XRD. Solid bricks were made with soil-cement mixtures and CW, which were cured for 7, 28 and 56 days and submi...
