Utilization of bauxite waste as a fine aggregate material for concrete roads: A critical review by Alamsyah A. M., Pratikso, Mudiyono R., Wahyudi Biantoro A.

“…However, replacing more than 20% of cement with red mud reduces concrete’s compressive strength and stiffness, and more than 15% substitution lowers stress and bond-breaking quality. Thus, the analysis results show a tendency to use red mud as a cement substitute in concrete, with the best compressive strength and solid mass stiffness of concrete in the range of 15 – 20%.…”
