Abstract

The escalating demand for concrete, particularly in developing countries, has led to significant environmental concerns due to the high carbon dioxide emissions associated with cement production. This chapter investigates the potential of marble dust and eggshell powder as eco-friendly alternatives to cement, focusing on their ability to enhance the mechanical properties of concrete. The integration of pine-needle fibres further improves the structural integrity of concrete by acting as an effective crack arrestor, drawing from ancient practices of fortifying brittle matrices. Studies have shown that these natural fibres, when treated with warm water or dilute alkali solutions, can significantly improve the flexural and fatigue properties of concrete. The chapter delves into the benefits of using commercially available waste materials, such as marble dust and eggshell powder, to reduce cement usage and promote sustainable construction practices. It also explores the potential of pine-needle fibres in enhancing crack resistance and improving the overall durability of concrete structures. The findings suggest that the combination of these materials can lead to more resilient and environmentally friendly construction materials, paving the way for innovative solutions in the construction industry.
