Five concrete mixes were produced with a water/cement ratio (w/c) of 0.5 and other five mixes with a w/c of 0.7. Five replacement rates of coarse aggregate by recycled coarse aggregate (%R) were used: 0, 25, 50, 75, and . OPC was used in all mixtures, and its production process was considered independently from the rest of the materials.

11. • According to "The Effect of Recycled Coarse," the results of experiments showed that "the recycled aggregate absorption value is 7.5% which is higher than the WSDOT specification of aggregate in 3.7% maximum. • Therefore, the recycled aggregate satisfies the absorption specification. • Also, different portions of recycled aggregate added to the mixture …
To obtain good quality concrete using recycled aggregate it is necessary to follow the minimum requirements defined by the BCSJ [1], RILEM [2], DIN 4226.100 [3], and prEN 13242:2002 [4].Acceptable properties of aggregates are an elemental base for concrete quality, however adequate mix proportions and concrete production methods are highly important in …
Figure 2c and d show the Los Angeles abrasion and crushing index of coarse aggregates. As the recycling cycle increases, there is a corresponding increase in both the abrasion and crushing index. Higher values for these properties indicate that the aggregate is more susceptible to abrasion and (Mohajerani et al. 2017; Zhang et al. 2017), suggesting that …
To sum up, recycling coarse aggregate is a complicated process and its influence on concrete differs depending on the research. Therefore, percentage of replacement of NA with RCA should be supported by the fulfilment of the assumed concrete strength requirements.
Plastic recycling Recycling is the practice of recovering used materials from the waste stream and then incorporating those same materials into the manufacturing process. Recycling is one of the prominent is used in these environmentally conscious …
Furthermore, the scattering-filling coarse aggregate process was developed and applied to prepare RAC, and the chloride diffusion coefficient of RAC prepared with the scattering-filling coarse ...
Scattering-filling coarse aggregate process. ... Fig. 2 shows that the surface of recycle aggregate is porous and loose. NA0# and RA0# were mixed gradations with 5–10 mm aggregate of 30% and 10–20 mm aggregate of 70% in mass. The gradations of coarse aggregate are also shown in Fig. 1.
The construction industry generates a huge amount of concrete waste that needs to be recycled, which is said to be recycled aggregate (RA) being used for partial or total substitution of natural aggregate. Upscaling recycled aggregate in concrete production reduces dumped waste and decreases energy consumption in the extraction of new materials. However, the high water …
Addressing the increasing demand for concrete due to advancements in the construction sector and population growth, this research explores the critical intersection of waste management and sustainable construction practices. By incorporating recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) derived from construction and demolition waste into concrete, waste reduction and …
Recycling concrete is an effective strategy for addressing the accumulation of construction waste. Additionally, it promotes resource recycling and reduces carbon emissions [1], [2], [3], [4].During the preparation process, recycled materials often exhibit performance-compromising characteristics such as high crushing value, increased water absorption, reduced apparent …
Recycled concrete aggregates are produced in stationary recycling plants similar to those used for natural crushed aggregate production. Processing usually includes two-stage crushing …
Natural crushed stone aggregates can be substituted with recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), which is a sustainable option. This study examines the literature on the qualities of recycled …
The thermal recycling process creates about 200 kg CO 2 /t (Quattrone et al., Citation 2014). ... CW: Ceramic Waste; RCA: Recycled Coarse Aggregate; NFA: Natural Fine Aggregate; NCA: Natural Coarse Aggregate; CDW: Construction and Demolition Waste; OPC: Ordinary Portland Cement; ...
This study replaced coarse aggregate with polyurethane in concrete to reduce waste disposal and natural coarse aggregate extraction. ... a manufacturer supplied waste-disposed panels and scraps that were later processed into coarse particles in a recycling PU laboratory. The size of waste PU (4.75–20 mm) was used in concrete ...
Recycling of concrete is a simple process. It involves breaking, removing, and crushing existing concrete into a material with a specified size and quality. As per study about 75 to 80% of total …
INTRODUCTION OF RECYCLED COARSE AGGREGATE Recycling is the act of processing the used material for use in creating new product. The usage of ... The recycling process can be done on site. According to Kajima Technical Research Institute (2002), Kajima is …
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 created after the …
The modification method and the replacement rate of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) have a great influence on the properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). This paper aims to study the properties of RAC changes with the replacement rate and analyze the modification mechanism. Composite impregnation treatment was carried out for RCA using …
