Fiber-reinforced geopolymers made with recycled aggregates for screed flooring and repair applications by Joud Hwalla, Hilal El-Hassan, Joseph J. Assaad, Tamer El-Maaddawy

“…The increase in greenhouse gas emissions from cement production, along with limited landfill capacity for construction waste, has driven research into finding sustainable alternatives to replace cement and natural aggregates. While cement replacement with geopolymeric binders in mortar and concrete has been proven feasible, replacing natural aggregates with recycled counterparts has led to performance losses. …”

Formation of aggregates and carbon sequestration in ameliorated tepetates in the Río Texcoco basin, Mexico by Aurelio Báez-Pérez, Jorge D. Etchevers-Barra, Christian Prat, Claudia Hidalgo-Moreno

“…We collected 97 samples of tepetates and four soils in the Basin of the Río Texcoco and neighboring communities. The aggregate stability test overestimated stable aggregates due to the presence of remaining hard fragments of tepetates of different size; the hardness of the latter was one to three times greater than that of the aggregates. …”
