After demolition of old roads and buildings, the removed concrete is often considered worthless and disposed of as demolition waste. By collecting the used concrete and breaking it up, recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is created (Fig. 1).This paper focuses on coarse RCA which is the coarse aggregate from the original concrete that is …

The use of recycled concrete aggregate adversely affects the durability properties of concrete. Recycled concrete is characterized by increased water absorption and permeability due to the higher porosity of RCA that originated from the attached mortars, which have conduits for water transport (Sagoe-Crentsil et al., 2001). …
The potential for using recycled aggregates in concrete has increased thanks to the concrete standard BS 8500, also known as Aggregates for concrete (BS EN 12620). Although it is currently not readily available, it is anticipated that the usage of recycled aggregates for concrete will increase over the coming years.

3. ABSTRACT The waste materials considered to be recycled in this study consist of glass, plastics, and demolished concrete. Such recycling not only helps conserve natural resources, but also helps solve a growing waste disposal crisis. Ground plastics and glass were used to replace up to 20% of fine aggregates in concrete …
AI-enhanced description. GLA University. Self-compacting concrete (SCC) was developed in Japan in the 1980s to solve issues with inadequate concrete compaction. SCC is highly flowable under its own weight and fills formwork without vibration. It was pioneered by Professor Hajime Okamura and has seen increasing use globally since 2000.

The use of recycled concrete aggregates has piqued the interest of many researchers by utilization of a full or partial substitution to that of natural aggregates in concrete mixtures. Over the last decade, a significant volume of literature has been published discussing the properties and microstructure of
The document provides an overview of a comparative study on concrete using recycled coarse aggregates. It discusses the need for recycled aggregates due to shortage of natural aggregates and increasing construction waste. It also explains the process of recycling concrete. The document then reviews several literature studies on …
The present study deals with the effect of using plastic waste on mechanical properties of concrete. The experimental work consists of adding manually formed serrated plastic fibers by ratios of (1%, 2% and 3%) of cement weight. Different lengths of fibers were used for each ratio with a constant width of 5 mm.

The compressive strength of concrete containing recycled aggregate at 1, 4, 7, 28 and 90 days was lower than that of the control specimen, but could be compensated by the use of 10% SF or 15% MK. However, the use of 30% FA or 55% GGBS lowered the strength. The tensile splitting strength of natural and recycled …
The ratios between the elastic modulus and compressive strength for RFA concrete were dissimilar to those for concrete but similar to those for recycled coarse aggregate concrete.

Reuse, recycling and reduction of construction materials have been advocated for many years, and various methods have been investigated. There may be six type of building materials: plastic, paper, timber, metal, glass and concrete which can be reused and recycled. This paper examines the rate of reusable & recyclable concrete waste.
In this paper, a comprehensive literature review was conducted on the utilization of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), which is the dominant construction and demolition waste material, in base and subbase layers and its comparison with natural aggregate (NA).
Researchers have proposed to use them as raw materials for concrete. In this paper, the effects of different lithium slag (LS) contents (0%, 10%, 20%, 40%) and different substitution rates of recycled fine aggregates (RFA) (0%, 10%, 20%, 30%) on the axial compressive strength and stress-strain curve of concrete are discussed.
