The potential of porcelain waste as sand replacement to produce high strength concrete

Presently, green environment has been the biggest challenge in building and construction industries. An alternative in promotion to green environment is an effective and efficient recycling system by reusing solid waste materials like porcelain waste (PW). Recently, due to high demand in the constru...
