Pre-treatment and utilization of recycled fine glass dust for 3D Concrete Printing

The first part of this thesis investigated different pre-treatment methods of the fine glass dust in order to increase the reactivity when it was used as a cement replacement in cementitious mixtures. The results showed that the optimal pre-treatment for the fine glass dust was a heat-treatment at 600∘C for 1 hour combined with a grinding...
