Abstract

Construction waste presents considerable risks to human health, safety, and the environment, alongside escalating expenses related to waste management and carbon emissions. Cement manufacturing provides a substantial share of carbon emissions within the construction sector. Geopolymers present a sustainable substitute for conventional cement-based concrete, capable of reducing CO2 emissions and promoting a circular economy. This study investigates the incorporation of Reactive Ultrafine Fly Ash (RUFA) and Recycled Fine Aggregates (RFA) in the production of geopolymers to create sustainable construction materials. The study investigates the physical characteristics, setting time, fluidity, compressive strength, and microstructure of RUFA geopolymers with varying quantities of RFA. The results indicate that incorporating RFA improves compressive strength, with peak results at 40% RFA content. Furthermore, RFA decreases setting time to a specific limit, beyond which additional quantities have negligible effects. Fluidity is maximized in RFA mixtures at 30%, subsequently declining. Scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed microstructural enhancements and increased density in 40% of RFA samples. Statistical analysis indicates the substantial impact of RFA content and sample age on compressive strength. This research offers significant insights into developing sustainable construction materials and underscores the necessity of carefully selecting RFA content. Future research may investigate various combinations and parameters for wider applications in sustainable construction practices.

Abstract

The curved damper can control the structure movement by a physical approach to reduce the lateral deformation under the earthquake, which previously proved to be a significant improvement when applied on a moment-resisting frame in a laboratory scale experiment. With the same idea, a curved damper is considered a passive control to reduce the excessive deformation for a single span of a steel truss bridge, which is analyzed by finite element modeling to evaluate the role of the curved damper in a complex structure. The study of curved dampers applied in this typical bridge showed that mid-span deformation can be mitigated by up to 62% under an earthquake. Hence, a structure with a curved damper is recommended for application in high seismic locations.

Abstract

Industri Batching Plant dan Asphalt Mixing Plant (AMP) berperan strategis dalam penyediaan material konstruksi, namun aktivitas operasionalnya menghasilkan limbah padat dan cair yang berpotensi mencemari lingkungan apabila tidak dikelola secara optimal. Sebagai upaya mendukung pengelolaan limbah yang berkelanjutan, tim dosen dan mahasiswa Program Studi Teknik Sipil Institut Teknologi Sumatera (ITERA) melaksanakan kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat di Provinsi Lampung dengan fokus pada pendampingan identifikasi, pengolahan, dan pemanfaatan limbah industri sebagai bahan baku alternatif beton non-struktural ramah lingkungan. Metode kegiatan meliputi observasi lapangan untuk mengidentifikasi jenis dan volume limbah, pengambilan sampel sludge beton, sisa agregat, serta debu produksi AMP, pengujian karakteristik fisik material di laboratorium, dan perancangan variasi campuran beton dengan substitusi sebagian agregat menggunakan material limbah yang telah melalui proses pengeringan dan pengayakan. Evaluasi dilakukan melalui pengujian kuat tekan beton pada beberapa variasi komposisi limbah. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa pada komposisi limbah 20%–30%, beton non-struktural mampu mencapai kuat tekan rata-rata 12,73 MPa dan masih memenuhi persyaratan teknis untuk aplikasi seperti paving block dan elemen pracetak ringan. Namun, pada komposisi 75%, kuat tekan menurun signifikan menjadi 5,85 MPa. Dengan ketersediaan limbah sekitar 1–2 ton per minggu, pemanfaatan optimal pada kisaran 20%–30% berpotensi mendukung produksi beton non-struktural berkelanjutan serta penerapan prinsip ekonomi sirkular di sektor konstruksi.
