Abstract
As the global population continues to grow, the cost and environmental challenges associated with traditional construction materials, like cement and river sand, are becoming increasingly significant. The present study examines an alternative environmentally friendly approach to typical building materials. It thus aims to evaluate the feasibility of using foam concrete block waste as a partial replacement for cement to create eco-friendly foamed concrete products. The experimental program involved the deployment of specific machines to prepare finely ground foam concrete waste with a particle size equivalent to that of cement. The replacement levels were 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% by weight of cement. The effects of the different replacement ratios on the foamed concrete properties were investigated and compared with the control cement-foamed concrete.
