What is The Effect of Waste Marble and Basalt Aggregates on the Fresh and Hardened Properties of High Strength Self-compacting Concrete about?

With the increase in concrete production worldwide in recent years, our natural aggregate resources are rapidly depleting. Various waste aggregates are used as an alternative to natural aggregates to solve this problem. However, the demand for High Strength Self-Compacting Concrete (HSSCC) in the concrete industry is increasing. Using waste aggregates as coarse aggregate in HSSCCs may increase the sustainability of HSSCCs, while simultaneously reducing environmental waste problems and production costs. This study aims to produce the HSSCC series by using basalt and waste marble aggregates in certain volumetric ratios instead of limestone-based crushed stone used as coarse aggregate in concrete production. To achieve this aim, the effect of aggregate type was investigated on the physical, mechanical, and durability properties of the produced concrete series. In the production of HSSCC series, silica fume and cement were used in fixed proportions. Instead of limestone-based coarse aggregates, waste marble and basalt aggregates were used at 25, 50, 75, and 100 % ratios by volume. Thus, a series of eight different HSSCCs and a control HSSCC were created. Slump flow, T500 time, V-funnel
