2. CONCRETE:-
It is a Mixture of cement, sand and course aggregate, which can
be poured into formwork & form a hard structure like stone.
Types of concrete:-
R.C.C (reinforced cement concrete)
R.M.C (ready mix concrete)
P.C.C(plain cement concrete)
Green concrete
3. INTRODUCTION:-
Green concrete is a revolutionary topic in history of
concrete industry, was invented by Denmark.
Green concrete is a type of concrete which is much like
a conventional concrete but the manufacturing
process of such concrete require minimum amount of
energy & cause least harm to environment.
4. WHAT IS GREEN CONCRETE:-
A concrete that made with concrete waste & use less
energy in the production & produce less CO2 than
conventional concrete
This is also called eco-friendly concrete & reduce
environment impact.
for eg. Energy saving,CO2 emission, concrete waste.
5. Why green concrete:-
The main ingredient of concrete is cement and it
consists of lime stone(CaCo3).
During manufacturing, the ingredient are heated to
about 1000°C. during this process CO2 is driven off.
Approx 1 kg of cement release 900 gm of CO2 in
atmosphere.
Therefore, green concrete came into existance to
reduce the emission of CO2.
6. MATERIALS FOR GREEN CONCRETE:-
Locally available and reusable/recyclable :-
Like,
Recycled concrete aggregate
Blast furnace slag
Recycled glass aggregate
Manufactured sand
Fly ash
7. CEMENTITOUS MATERIAL- FLY ASH
• Fly ash is by- product produce during the operation
coal fired power plant. The finely divided particle from
exhaust collected in electro static precipitator.
these particle called fly ash.
• Utilization of fly ash as a part of replacement of
cement & hence reduce the emission of CO2.
8. Use of good quality of fly ash in concrete has shown
remarkable improvement ,especially:-
• Higher ultimate strength
• Increase durability
• Improve workability
• Reduce shrinkage
• Reduce bleeding
9. Feature Of Green Concrete:-
Optimization use of available material.
Reduce shrinkage and creep
Better service life
LEED India certificate.
Cohesion and workability.
10. ADVANTAGES OF GREEN CONCRETE:-
Optimization of mix design mean easier handling and
consistency & easier finishing.
Reduction in shrinkage.
Heat of hydration is lower than normal concrete.
Green concrete uses local and recyclable material.
11.
12. SUITABILITY OF GREEN CONCRETE:-
Reduction of concrete industry CO2 emission.
No environment pollution and thus sustainable
development.
Increase concrete industry use of waste product.
Flexural strength is almost equal to conventional
concrete.
Reduce dead weight of structure.
13. SCOPE :-
Green concrete is a revolutionary topic in history of
concrete industry.
As green concrete is made up of waste concrete, it does
not take more time to come in india.
Also, reduces CO2. and increase carbon credit of india.
