Abstract Due to the high costs of traditional concrete materials in Nigeria, such as river sand, there is an increasing demand explore alternative like laterite for fine aggregates. Although abundant its full potential construction industry remains untapped. Previous studies have shown that partially replacing sand with produces competitive strength properties. This research aims validate and extend these findings, evaluating impact different aggregate sizes (12 mm, 20 40 mm) on 10% 25% replacements aggregate. Results revealed percentage increased, compressive, flexural, split tensile strengths decreased. While 0% met required strength, mix fell short. Increasing maximum coarse size led higher strengths, mm exhibiting highest, 12 lowest. Compressive ranged from 22.1 37.6 N/mm 2 , flexural 4.07 5.99 split-tensile 2.93 4.30 . highlights need meticulous design adjustments when using laterite, balancing workability objectives. The developed regression models offer a valuable tool predicting properties based parameters, providing insights optimizing laterized designs across diverse applications supporting sustainable building practices.

In light of the global climate change crisis, imperative to mitigate carbon emission sources is growing in significance. Cement a notable contributor greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) due its industrial manufacturing process, which results release 0.9 kg GHG per kilogram produced. Therefore, reduce by using Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) as substitution for cement high strength concrete (HSC). However, use nano silica (NS) nanomaterial HSC improve mechanical and durability characteristics HSC. Besides, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was adopted assess workability test (slump), compressive (CS), splitting tensile (STS), flexural (FS), modulus elasticity water absorption (WA) blended with 5–20% GGBFS an 5% increment 1–4% NS 1% nanomaterial. CS outcomes were obtained at 7 days, 28 90 days while STS, FS, MOE, WA assessments observed days. From experimental outcomes, Slump found be reduced addition rises Moreover, highest CS, MOE 91.78 MPa, 5.25 5.05 46.06 GPa 10% 3% together respectively. Additionally, embodied decreasing increases Furthermore, response prediction models developed verified ANOVA significance level 95%. The R-Square values ranged from 93 99.50%. It has been concluded that replacement providing optimum therefore, it recommended construction industry.

Plastic waste (PW) generation continuously increases every year due to the growing population and demand for plastic materials. This situation poses a challenge many countries, including developed ones, on how dispose of PW. Accordingly, PW was utilized in this study replace coarse aggregates partially high-volume fly-ash (HVFA) concrete. However, decreased strength durability To address issue, graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were added mitigate negative consequences HVFA concrete's properties.

This study makes a significant contribution to the field of pervious concrete by using machine learning innovatively predict both mechanical and hydraulic performance. Unlike existing methods that rely on labor-intensive trial-and-error experiments, our proposed approach leverages multilayer perceptron network.
