Engineering Properties of Concrete Containing Hazardous Drywalls Waste and GGBS
An investigation is planned to know how effects of powdered drywalls and to create a new mix blend proportions for concrete containing crushed and powdered gypsum wallboard and GGBS as partial replacement to cement. Results indicate gypsum wall board in powdered form along with GGBS can serve the criteria of concrete when used as 60% replacement for cement. Reference concrete mixture was compared with sustainable concrete mixtures made by replacing 15, 30, 45, 60 and 75% (by weight) of binder. The concrete bends with lesser cement replacement resulted in better mechanical properties compared to the mixes with higher cement replaced mixes. However, the concrete mixes with higher replacements exhibited higher durability compared to the mixes with lesser replacements. However, all the mixes recorded better later age strength after 28 days. Hence, the usage of above wastes in the manufacturing of concrete is recommended to reduce hazardous H2S gas emissions.
