Introduction of recycled aggregates Recycled Aggregates are obtained when screening the demolished concretes. When concrete is mixed with a certain percentage of these recycled aggregates, it is then called “Recycled Concrete” (R.Dalati, 2008). The concept of sustainable construction development is becoming nowadays a widely discussed subject. It is also turning to become a challenge for the construction industry due to the increasing scarcity of natural resources and the ever increasing demolition

ash to partially replace the use of Portland cement in concrete are gathering momentum. Most of this by-product material is currently dumped in landfills, creating a threat to the environment. Instead, the source of materials such as fly ash, that are rich in Silicon (Si) and Aluminium (Al), are activated by alkaline liquids to produce the binder. Keywords: geopolymer; fly-ash, rice-husk ash Introduction: Geopolymer is used as the binder, instead of cement paste, to produce concrete. The geopolymer

heavily by Cemex prior to investing in foreign markets. One of the industry specific novelties of cement manufacturing, is the product itself. “The company sells ready-mixed cement that can survive for only about 90 minutes before solidifying, so precise delivery is important” (Hill, 2008). This industry is already at a predisposed peril if it were to consider exporting their goods. The cement industry requires this product to be made on site. Due to this requirement, Cemex could have considered

INTRODUCTION Reactive powder concrete (RPC), a cement-based composite material well known for the ultra-highstrength, high-durability and low-porosity, made its international debut in 1994 (Richard, 1994). The advance mechanical and physical properties of RPC are obtained by optimizing packing density of concrete mixture with precise gradation of all mix particles, and by using highly refined silica fume to improve the microstructure of hydrated cement pastes through the pozzolanic reaction. To

hole all the way through it. Does a piglet suspended in the air decompose at a different rate than one left on the ground or cement? My initial theory was that the piglet that was suspended will decompose faster than the other ones because, it will have more strain on the body making it rip in half. What I have found was that my theory was wrong, the piglet laying on the cement decomposed faster. I think that it decomposed faster because it was more exposed to the maggots and other insects. Which decomposes
