The current context regarding the management of waste obtained from the construction industry, according to European Union laws and directives, requires the imposition of an integrated waste management system. The main objective of this study was to integrate and reuse old plaster waste as a substitute for aggregates in significant proportions in mortar composition and analyzing the impact on the physical and mechanical characteristics of mortar in fresh state and in hardened state. Over periods of 7, 14, and 28 days, the experimental program studied three types of plastering mortars: a standard recipe (without waste) and another two proposed recipes, in which construction waste was re-used as a substitute for aggregates in proportions of 10% and 15%. Results obtained on the fresh properties of the proposed plastering mortars (apparent density, consistency, and segregation trend) indicated a variation (increase/decrease) of 1% to 2.5% compared with the standard recipe. Mechanical strengths showed decreased values; that is, the compressive strength decreased by 11.09% and the flexural strength decreased by 22% when waste replaced aggregates in a proportion of 15%. The results of the experimental program identified the potential of waste plaster, which can replace up to 15% of the aggregates in plaster mortars, which still guarantees their successful use in practice. To reduce the influence of the use of waste on the mechanical strengths, we propose to conduct further investigations (nuclear magnetic resonance, electronic microscopy, and X-ray diffraction) on these mortars reinforced with different types of fibers. The large amount of waste resulting from the rehabilitation of damaged building facades and the fact that there are currently no experimental studies on the reuse of waste from old plaster mortars were the main reasons for the present study examining the possibility of their use in the production of new building materials.
