Water absorption, strength and microscale properties of interlocking concrete blocks made with plastic fibre and ceramic aggregates
This study determines the suitability of using shredded waste plastic and waste ceramic powder (WCP) to produce interlocking concrete blocks (ICB). The study adopted a concrete mix ratio of 1:2 containing 20 % partial replacement of sand with ceramic waste. The compressive strength, splitting tensil...
