Abstract

This paper researches a measurement of thermal conductivity of crushed recycled glass concrete using UnithermTM Model 6000 Guarded Hot Plate Thermal Conductivity Instrument. Thirty six (36) samples of recycled glass concrete was produced with two types of water to cement ratio (0.4 and 0.5). Recycled glass was used to replace fine aggregate in proportions of 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 %. In addition, the microstructure behavior of recycled glass concrete was observed using the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). According to experimental results water cement ratio, moisture condition and percentage of crushed recycled glass of the specimen revealed as affecting factors on the conductivity of concrete.
