Description
Summary:The assumptions of the low-carbon economy and sustainable development in construction leads to the search for ecological solutions in materials whose production generates significant amounts of carbon dioxide. Cement substitution with waste glass powder used in building mortars is part of this trending solution. This paper describes the results on the selective properties of mortars containing powdered waste glass in the amount of 0-20% by weight. The proposed modificationgives satisfactory physical and mechanical properties to the cement mortars used in the building industry.
