Abstract :Meerschaum is white claylike mineral of hydrous magnesium silicate. It has an irregular and white colored crystalline structure. It is wet and moisturized under soil and so it is in an easy-toprocess after extraction. Wastes are stored in a dry environment and kept ready-to-use form. While processing meerschaum %15-40 of its amount becomes waste. In this study meerschaum waste is used as aggregate in concrete, and the stress-strain diagrams for these concrete specimens are obtained. Also stress-strain diagrams of these concrete specimens are examined. It is concluded that meerschaum waste can be used as aggregate in concrete.
Keywords : Meerschaum, Sepiolite, Stress Strain Diagram, Light Weight Concrete
