The use of limestone in the construction industry has been increasing due to benefits as aggregate. Some of these benefits include good strength, low possibility of alkali-silica reaction and the decrease in drying shrinkage in concrete. This research discusses the consumption and general characteristics of the limestone aggregate in …

1. Introduction. The Portland cement (PC) industry is a major contributor to global environmental impact with approximately anthropogenic 8% CO 2 emissions [1].Hence, the replacement of PC material in a form of alkali-activated concrete (AAC), also known as geopolymer, has been a topic of interest for academia and industry in recent …

However, autoclaved aerated concrete is not general waste concrete, such as what is obtained after demolition of concrete structures. On the other hand, calcareous concrete, mixed from limestone as a concrete aggregate, has been used in many countries, such as Greece [6], France [60], countries bordering the Arabian Gulf [61], and …
