Presence of high fines (<75 μm) is highly harmful as it leads to shrinkage in concrete. Utilization of industrial by-products (IBP) as a replacement to fine aggregate will improve the sustainability of concrete production by conservation of natural resources and decrease of carbon dioxide (CO 2) emission.

اقرأ أكثرAccording to various reports, it has been predicted that concrete production will rise up to 18 billion tons per year by 2050 [52]. Since aggregate contains 70%–80% of the volume of concrete, it will consume limited natural resources very soon [53]. Coarse aggregates are mainly obtained from natural resources like stone by quarrying mountains.
