Manufacturing of Paving Blocks Using Tile Waste
Huge amounts of tile waste are daily generated by ceramic companies and construction sites. As a result, they are piled up on empty lands or dumped in land fillings. This type of waste causes environmental pollution and groundwater pollution. This study was accomplished to provide a solution to reduce large quantities of tile waste to some extent. This study is a good reference to identify the benefits of these waste ceramic tile particles as an alternative material for fine and coarse aggregate in the paving block manufacturing industry. Concrete mixture proportions were suggested according to the Grade 25 concrete mix design. Further, blocks were prepared according to different (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100%) replacements of both aggregate types from tile waste. The paving blocks were characterized using a flexural strength test, compressive strength test, and water absorption test. Compressive strength results were collated with standard strength values in Indian standards for paving blocks. It was observed that with the increase of tile waste particles, the slump was reduced. All blocks (including the control sample) met 30 MPa strength after 28 days of curing for lightweight traffic. The strength of the blocks was increased with the rise of tile waste percentage from 0 to 100%. Results revealed that 50% of both aggregate replacements with tile waste are practicable in the paving block manufacturing process. It is suitable for use on roads and parking slots. This study shows that the use of tile waste in the paving block industry, as an alternative material for manufacturing paving blocks, is technically a feasible solution.
