- Abstract
Concrete is used in buildings for strength, thermal conductivity and energy saving. It is desired that the density of the concrete used in the buildings be lightweight, have high strength and have good thermal and sound conductivity. Foam concrete is consisting of mixtures containing water, cement and special aggregates and having air gaps that independent each other at 75-80% of its volume. They are both low weight and have low thermal conductivity due to their porous structure. Foam concrete is using a lot of area such as production of block bricks, wall panels, production of screeds, lightweight concrete for wadding in tunnels and wells, production of thermally insulated lightweight tiles and ceramics. Foam concrete is produced by adding foaming agent to portland cement and water mixture. The foam produced is poured into molds according to the application area so the production is completed when the freezing time is completed. In this project, ceramic waste materials were adding into the foam concrete and trials were conducted. Ceramic wastes are difficult to recycle. Wastes are subjected to various grinding processes and they were reduced to below 300 microns. Experiments were made by adding ceramic waste in certain ratios to foam concrete resin instead of portland cement. As a result of this process the produced foam is environmentally friendly, 10% more economical, high strength and 10% lightweighter. Our produce is appropriate for using such areas; block brick, wall-panel production, screed etc.
