✦ Synopsis


It has been shown that calcium hydroxide from hydrated cement reacts with fly ash and siliceous particles in the crusher fines of recycled concrete to give calcium silicate products similar to sand-lime bricks when autoclaved. Such products achieved compressive strengths up to 12.5 MPa.
