This study explores the use of recycled brick powder (PRB), derived from waste bricks, and calcined recycled slurry powder (PCRS), sourced from waste cement blocks, as partial replacements for cement and fly ash in concrete. These materials can be utilized to produce concrete with favorable engineer...
