摘要
This work is part of an experimental contribution approach to the study of the incorporation of glass sand from the grinding of recycled glass waste in cement mortars and its influence on the physical and mechanical behavior of semi-rich mortars without adjuvants. For this purpose, after a physical characterization of the sands, eight (08) formulations of mortars based on cement CEM II B/L 32.5R and fine sands (0/2) of glass at mass contents of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 75% and 100% of the silty sand (0/2) were made respectively to three (03) types of fine glass sand (white, brown, green) with water dosages on cement (W/C) of 0.50, 0.45, 0.40. The results obtained show that the fine sands of recycled glass have a higher water absorption than the silty sand and the physical properties of the mortars prepared are affected by the increase in the glass content. The mechanical performances are obtained for the ratio W/C = 0.50 and the formulation of glass mortars for an optimal compressive strength superior to glass-free mortar requires a substitution of 10% for fine white glass sand, 20% for sand fine green glass and 75% for fine brown glass sand. The comparative study between these different compositions of fine glass sand mortars shows that the mechanical performances of fine brown glass sand are better than other glass sands but generally remain inferior to the control mortar based on natural silty sand.
