The Effect of Micronized Waste Marble Powder as Partial Replacement for Cement on Resulting Mechanical Properties of Cement Pastes

Abstract:

This article was focused on the influence of the micronized waste marble powder on mechanical properties of cement pastes. Resulting blended cement was composed of Portland cement CEM I 42.5 R and micronized marble powder with different percentage amounts (0 wt. %, 5 wt. %, 10 wt. % and 15 wt. %). Testing was carried at prismatic samples of dimension 40 × 40 × 160 mm. The investigated mechanical properties were dynamic modulus of elasticity, dynamic shear modulus, flexural strength and compressive strength for the 28 days old samples. The results obtained from these materials were compared with reference material.
