Exploitation of the nanowaste ceramic incorporated with nano silica to improve concrete properties

The sustainable utilization of demolition wastes in the production of building materials is regarded as an eco-efficient approach for conserving naturally-occurring resources accompanied by resolving the environmental problems caused by these wastes. Accordingly, the motivation behind this work is e...
