A ceramic is an inorganic compound, non-metallic, solid material comprising metal, non-metal or metalloid atoms primarily held in ionic and covalent bonds. This article gives an overview of ceramic materials from the point of view of materials science.
The crystallinity of ceramic materials ranges from highly oriented to semi-crystalline, vitrified, and often completely amorphous (e.g., glasses). Most often, fired ceramics are either vitrified or semi-vitrified as is the case with earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain. Varying crystallinity and electron consumption in the ionic and covalent bonds cause most ceramic materials to be good thermal and electrical insulators (extensively researched in ceramic engineering). With such a large range of possible options for the composition/structure of a ceramic (e.g. nearly all of the elements, nearly all types of bonding, and all levels of crystallinity), the breadth of the subject is vast, and identifiable attributes (e.g. hardness, toughness, electrical conductivity, etc.) are hard to specify for the group as a whole. General properties such as high melting temperature, high hardness, poor conductivity, high moduli of elasticity, chemical resistance and low ductility are the norm,[1] with known exceptions to each of these rules (e.g. piezoelectric ceramics, glass transition temperature, superconductive ceramics, etc.). Many composites, such as fiberglass and carbon fiber, while containing ceramic materials, are not considered to be part of the ceramic family.[2]
Quality of construction material and durability of homebuiltify
Quality is an important factor in construction process. It depends upon the material used in construction process which ultimately affects the durability of home.
nodullär aggregates are manufactured using sedimentary clay as a major ingredient, that is deposited in the natural form which is rich in silica. This natural clay has a cellular structure inside, are pelletized and processed resulting in light, porous, aerated modules with a tough outer shell aggregates
In addition, each of the nodullär aggregates/ balls due to its normal round shape also acts to form of the geometric barrier which helps to displace and irradiates heat over a larger surface area the air entrapped thus, reduces the rate of heat transfer compared with dense, natural aggregates.
Therefore, nodullär –a lightweight aggregate improves thermal / heat insulation, waterproofing, etc. m enhanced with compressive strength in buildings and structures.

Case Studies on Mortarless System
Analysis:- The analysis will be done by collecting information Such as Classification of Mortar-less System, Advantages, Limitation, Cost Comparison, Case Study, Code & Standards, and Sustainable Design.
Purpose:-
To improve upon traditional masonry construction methods, which are labor and time intensive, as well as to control wastage of natural materials such as soil, lime and the like. The pursuit of this has led to the development of several nonconventional methods of masonry construction, including a variety of mortar-less systems.
The concrete which is made from the industrial wastes and eco-friendly is the green concrete.Green will reduce 10% of CO2 emission which will reduce the global warming, which is one of the reason for world's destruction.Since it is made from the industrial wastes it is very cheap and durable.
The Vacuum Dewatered (VD) Flooring method, is a system for laying high quality concrete floors with superior cost-effectiveness. The key to the use of this method is the dewatering of concrete by vacuum process. Surplus water from the concrete is removed immediately after placing and vibration, reducing the water-cement ratio to an optimum level.
This presentation mostly consist of basics of green concrete with its limitation and its applications.This presentation consist of 8 slides starting with concrete and ending with its application.
Pervious concrete (also called porous concrete, permeable concrete, no fines concrete and porous pavement) is a special type of concrete with a high porosity used for concrete flat applications allows water from precipitation and other sources to pass directly through, thereby reducing the run-off from a site and allowing ground water recharge. Pervious concrete is made using large aggregates with little to no fine aggregates. The concrete paste then coats the aggregates and allows water to pass through the concrete slab. Pervious concrete is traditionally used in parking areas, areas with light traffic, residential streets, pedestrian walkways, and green houses. It is an important application for sustainable construction and is one of many low impact development techniques used by builders to protect water quality. In this project we made pervious concrete in the ratios of 1:6, 1:8, and 1:10 and obtained the values of compressive strength, tensile strength, and water absorption for 7 & 28 days. This result reveals that this concrete can be used as pavement in roads.
Flexural Behavior of Fibrous Reinforced Cement Concrete Blended With Fly Ash ...Ijripublishers Ijri
Research for high strength and better performance characteristics of concrete are leading the researchers for developing
better structural concrete and new structural application techniques.New types of concrete have come in application
in construction by using supplementary cementitious materials like fly ash, silica fume metakaoline, nanosilica and
other materials using various reinforcing materials like different type of fibers for achieving better performance for the
composite compared to the normal concrete.In the present experimental investigation, a mix design for high strength
concrete of M80 is tried using triple blending technique with ternary blend of metakaoline and fly ash as partial replacement
by weight of cement at various blended percentages ranging between 10%-40% with steel fibers having aspect ratio
of 50. The various percentages of steel fibers to be tried are 0%, 0.5% and 1% by volume of concrete. The workability is
measured for its consistency using compaction factor method.The project aims at finding the optimum replacement of
cement by fly ash and metakaoline from which maximum benefit in various strengths and workability of the mix can be
obtained. The results of fiber reinforced specimens with various percentages of ternary blend are compared with control
specimens to study the behaviour of FRC properties with various percentages of the blends as partial replacement by
weight of cement. Sufficient number of cubes and beams will be cast. The case specimens will be tested for the change
in compressive and flexural strengths at 7 & 28 days for M80 concrete.It is expected that the results of present investigation
would help to arrive at the optimum percentages of the admixtures and fibre reinforcement to achieve optimum
strength properties of the composite.

SOLIGNUM TREATED SAWDUST AS FINE AGGREGATE IN CONCRETE PRODUCTIONIAEME Publication
The cost of construction has been on the increasewhich has become a concern to both individuals and government of especially developing countries,and that iswhy this study isaimed at using available cheap materials (sawdust) in concrete production. Concrete mix ratio of 1:2:4 was usedand replacedwith fine aggregate at 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% with soligum treated sawdust. From the tests conducted, it was observed that increase in sawdust resulted in decrease in the compressive strength of the concrete. Also it was observed that increase in the sawdust content resulted in the reduction of weight of the concrete. In conclusion sawdust as an air entrainingagent has n appreciable positive effect on the compressive strength of concrete. The reduction in strength of concrete with sawdust as fine aggregate wasdue to its higher rate of water absorption because the higher the water contents in concrete, The lower the strength of the concrete
