The presented work investigates the effect of addition admixture (cement kiln dust) to concrete as a partial replacement of cement weight. Cement kiln dust was added by (10,30,50)% of cement weight.Four mixes were selected, three of them contain cement kiln dust (CKD) and one reference mix without any admixture for ages (7,28,90) days. Compressive strength ,flexural strength, ultra-sound velocity (UPV), slump, splitting tensile strength and static modulus of elasticity were tested.The test results indicated that the use of (CKD) led to significant decreasing in concrete strength in general and this decreasing increases with the increasing of (CKD), for example at 28 day the compressive strength of reference concrete (A) was 35 MPa, while the compressive strength of (B,C,D) contain (10,30,50)%CKD were (28,25,22) MPa respectively.
The white cement Kiln dust (WCKD) is a secondary production from the cement industry through its production operation. Environmentally, it is considered as an unwanted waste because it causes air pollution and ground congealment, and it is needed great efforts and financial support to disposal it. In this study, the WCKD was used partially instead of limestone as a filler in the asphalt mix, where it was used by ratios of 0%,25%,50%,75% and 100% from the weight of limestone. An evaluation of the mechanical characteristics was conducted by carrying out Marshall test and Indirect Tensile test, and the results showed that the increase in the WCKD percent reduces the asphalt mix density and increases the percentage of air voids, while the other characteristics (stability, Marshall Stiffness, flow and Indirect Tensile Strength) increase when the WCKD ratio is 25% and 50%. These those characteristics start decreasing when the WCKD ratio was 75% and 100%. The study showed that the optimum ratio of the WCKD is 50% from the limestone weight, and the WCKD cannot be used as a filler entirely in asphalt mix, but it can be used partially.
