The workability of the recycled aggregate concrete was enhanced to level comparable to the reference concrete (165 mm) by adding superplasticizer (1% of the cement weight). The added superplasticizer compensates for the water absorbed by the recycled aggregates during mixing process [18,44,45]. However, adding crumb rubber …
اقرأ المزيدThe results also showed that the use of recycled aggregates in HVGGBFS concrete can significantly reduce workability. However, the compressive strength is higher than when natural aggregates are used due to the alkali activation effect caused by the recycled aggregates.
اقرأ المزيدAs the quantity of the fine recycled aggregate increases, then the density of the concrete mix decreases. This may be attributed to the low density of fine recycled aggregate compared with the coarse RAC. Previous research on the workability of construction and demolition waste/recycled aggregate in concrete is as shown in Table …

The results also showed that the use of ...
اقرأ المزيدThis study provides a comprehensive review on recycled aggregate (RA) and recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) regarding their history, recycling, reuse and manufacture process, inherent defects (e.g. existing of additional interfacial transition …
اقرأ المزيدWasted concrete was often used as a recycled aggregate instead natural stone in fresh concrete to reduce the environmental impact in a decade. However, because of the residual mortar interface, the performance of recycled aggregate was weaker. In this paper, the recycled aggregate was prewetted, and the effects of prewetted degree on …
اقرأ المزيدIn this work, the effects of recycled concrete aggregate, modified with mineral admixtures and nanosilica, on the mechanical properties and performance of concrete after curing in tap water for 28 and 90 days were investigated. The compressive (ƒc), indirect tensile (ƒt), and flexural (ƒb) strengths for the cured concrete specimens …
