ABSTRACT

The increasing demand for sustainable construction materials has led to extensive research on the utilization of waste materials as partial replacements in conventional concrete. Among these, waste ceramic materials have gained attention due to their pozzolanic properties and potential to improve concrete performance. This review explores the effectiveness of waste ceramic as a partial aggregate replacement in M-40 concrete, emphasizing strength and durability enhancements. Various studies indicate that ceramic waste improves compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths while enhancing durability characteristics such as water absorption, chloride resistance, and sulfate attack resistance. The integration of waste ceramics in concrete aligns with the principles of sustainability by reducing environmental burdens associated with ceramic waste disposal and decreasing the reliance on natural aggregates. This review consolidates recent findings on the mechanical and durability aspects of ceramic-based concrete and identifies potential research gaps for further studies.
