Abstract: As a basic stage for developing new construction material utilizing sewage sludge ash, this study is identified by specific material characteristics through XRD, SEM, uniaxial compressive strength, porosity, and the drying shrinkage by manufacturing mortar with sewage sludge ash. The average drying shrinkage of sewage sludge ash mortar aged 7 days showed 88% of the strain of the one aged 28 days. The porosity of sewage sludge ash mortar was about 7~10%. The more quick lime and blast furnace slag were added, the less porosity appeared.
