Ceramic waste influence on dune sand mortar performance

The present paper studies the properties of mortar made with dune sand from Djelfa, an Algerian desert region. It aims at evaluating the effect of the incorporation of recycled fine aggregates obtained from crushed earthenware (floor and wall tiles) and sanitary ware. The effect of these recycled materials was studied in an experimental programme through several tests taking into consideration the durability of these modified mortars to the...
