FIND OUT THE COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF CEMENT REPLACEMENT WITH GNSA AND CNSA

In this work, we examine the financial viability of using recycled materials such as waste ceramic tiles (WCT) and fly ash (FA) to replace some of the cement and coarse aggregates in concrete. Using an experimental approach, we calculated the % substitutions of the aforementioned components and their mixtures. However, WCT and FA swaps may only be made between 0% and 75% and between 0% and 50%. The aggregates' unit-cost analysis included in the prices of raw materials, labor, and machinery. In this research, we examine the outcomes of the aforementioned approaches and determine which ones provide the most value. Different powder admixtures, water-to-cement ratios, and powdered granulated blast furnace slag are used to create concrete of varied strengths. Compressive strength and workability of different combinations, both while they are fresh and after they have hardened, are compared. Concrete mixes are subjected to a variety of permeability tests. The relative value of concretes' features is evaluated
