LOCAL INDUSTRIAL BY-PRODUCTS FOR APPLICATION IN COMPOSITE MATERIALS

Concrete is the most used material in construction industry, and thus major consumer of natural resources through production of cement and aggregate. In recent years, numerous studies have been conducted in order to find replacement for cement and aggregate in composite materials, primarily concrete. In this paper, locally available industry waste materials are presented, that can be added in concrete, or act as a substitute for cement and/or aggregate. These waste materials are not used further in the industry and are treated as waste and as such deposited in landfills.
