Utilization of Algerian calcined clay in sustainable mortars considering thermal treatment and granulometry effects on mechanical properties

Abstract This study investigates the potential of calcined Algerian clay as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) for enhancing the sustainability of cement production by reducing the consumption of clinker and emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂). The research novelty lies in the comprehensive e...
