TO CONCRETE
Durability
Durability require low water/Cement ratio. It is usually
achieved not by increasing the cement content, but by
lowering the water demand at a given cement content.
Water demand can be lowered by through control of the
aggregate grading and by using water reducing admixtures
13 Introduction to Glass Powder
Glass is an amorphous (non-crystalline) that in essence, a super
cooled liquid and not a solid.
Glass can be made with excellent homogeneity in a variety of
forms and sizes from small fibers to meter-sizes pieces.
Glass waste is very hard material. Before add in glass powder in
the concrete it has to be powdered to desired size.
14 properties of Glass Powder
Glass is a uniform amorphous solid material, which is generally
produced when the viscous molten material cools very rapidly to below
its glass transition temperature, without giving sufficient time for a
regular crystal attics to form.
The most familiar form of glass is the silica-based material used for
windows, containers and decorative objects.
