Abstract
The objective of this study was to reuse construction waste for hollow non-load-bearing concrete masonry unit production. In this study, concrete fragments and ceramic tile fragments were replaced by sand and crushed dust, respectively. The percentages for replacement were 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 by weight, and ratio of cement to total mass was 1:5. The finished concrete blocks were evaluated in order to compare with Thai Community Product Standards (TCPS) 779/2548 and Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TIS) 58/2533. The results of the study showed that the specific gravity of concrete fragments and ceramic tile fragments were lower than those of sand and crushed dust, respectively. Based on concrete block characteristic, adding more sand and crushed dust can decrease the weight of concrete block and increase water absorption capacity. For compressive strength of concrete, 50% of replacement was the most appropriate and passed TCPS.779/2548 and TIS.58/2533 at 28 days with 2.53 Megapascal (MPa).
