| Abstract: |
This paper introduces an eco-friendly approach to developing cementitious materials using reclaimed cement obtained from demolished structures or disaster debris as a partial replacement for virgin cement, with a focus on the properties of the resulting cement paste. This innovative practice aims to reduce the demand for new cement in the building and construction industry, thereby contributing to a more sustainable and carbon-neutral built environment. Specimens with varying proportions of reclaimed cement, ranging from 0 to 20%, were prepared and analyzed for both fresh and hardened properties. The findings reveal that cement paste containing up to 20% reclaimed cement shows comparable performance to control specimens made solely with ordinary Portland cement {OPC), indicating their potential suitability for various built environment applications. |
