    L'impact environnemental et la recherche d’un faible coût de la construction sont une question importante. Dans le cadre de l'intégration dans la démarche de développement durable, les matériaux respectueux l'environnement présentent un grand intérêt dans la fabrication des bâtiments, et dans ce sens, de nombreuses études ont porté sur l'exploitation des fibres naturelles comme renforts dans les matériaux de construction. Notre contribution est orientée vers l'évaluation et le développement de la fibre de palmier (WF) en remplacement partiellement le ciment. L’objectif de cette expérimentation est de sélectionner le taux optimal parmi (1%, 2%, 3%) de fibres répondant aux exigences de résistance à la compression et à la flexion du mortier. Ce scénario se produit en utilisant des éprouvettes cubiques de 4 cm de côté pour la compression et d'autres prismatiques avec des dimensions de 4 * 4 * 16 cm pour la flexion. Les résultats obtenus ont montré que l'utilisation de 1% de (WF) améliore la résistance mécanique à la compression de 3,86% et donne une valeur comparable à la flexion par rapport à l'échantillon témoin

    Reviewing the Performance and Uses of Lightweight Geopolymer and Alkali-Activated Composites Incorporating Ceramic, Polymeric, and Lignocellulosic Waste as Aggregates

    As the construction industry moves towards more sustainable practices, the use of environmentally-friendly and durable materials, ensuring the comfort of buildings and infrastructure, becomes crucial. In this context, alkali-activated binders (AAB) and geopolymers (GP) have emerged as important alternatives, with a lower carbon footprint than conventional Portland cement (OPC). In addition, the integration of lightweight waste-based aggregates with AAB and geopolymers represents an essential alternative. This combination produces lightweight composites offering improved mechanical performance and construction comfort, while helping to reduce the growing amount of waste from various sources. This paper proposes a comprehensive review of the literature concerning the use of these lightweight waste-based aggregates in AAB/GP matrices, published between 2012 and 2023, mainly indexed in the Scopus database. The literature has catalogued lightweight waste-based aggregates, analyzing their characteristics and morphology. The impact of the size, quantity and nature of these aggregates on the properties and performance of the composite material was examined, taking into account aspects such as workability, mechanical strength, density, as well as thermal and acoustic insulation. In addition, a bibliometric analysis was carried out to establish relationships between key terms and collaborations between researchers in this field. This study highlights the potential of cementitious composites, particularly those incorporating lightweight waste-based aggregates, as sustainable materials for both structural and nonstructural applications in the construction sector. However, more research is needed to deepen our understanding of how these composites behave in innovative manufacturing processes, such as extrusion and 3D printing.
