The rapid increase in concrete waste has emerged as a significant global environmental challenge. In addition, the depletion of natural resources commonly used in concrete production highlights the necessity of adopting sustainable alternative materials. The incorporation of recycled aggregates in new concrete is considered an effective approach to reducing environmental degradation and preservin…

Recycled glass waste is one of the most attractive waste materials that can be used to create a concrete mix.Therefore, researchers focus on the production of concrete using recycled glass as an abrasive or as a pozzolanic material, but the use of recycled glass in the form of coarser particles to replace sand in concrete increases the alkali-silica reaction and this causes Unfavorable performanc…
