| Sumario: | The use of supplementary cementitious materials like crushed glass, steel slag, and silica fume at an acceptable level has resulted in many advantages such as reduction of the waste solid materials and production of eco-friendly material. Moreover, the inclusion of fibers for reinforcing cementitious matrix can improve its properties overall. Therefore, this research has been divided into two phases. The first phase has included the production of green reactive powder mortar and the investigation of its properties. The second phase has involved the incorporation of the micro steel fibers to green reactive powder mortar with different amounts. The results have indicated that the use of the crushed glass, steel slag, and silica fume by 8, 12, and 10% as a partial replacement of cement with suitable chemical admixture gives a great reduction of cement by 30% from the total cementitious amount used in reactive powder mortar and greater values of strengths for reactive powder mortar. The addition of micro steel fibers by 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5% improves the dry bulk density, ultrasonic pulse velocity, compressive strength, flexural strength, and tensile strength of green mortar. The best increase has been observed at green reactive powder mortar (GRPC) containing 2 % of micro steel fibers. |
