Elastic Modulus of Concrete Cast with Recycled Aggregates

Article Preview

Abstract:

In view of the importance of recycled aggregates concrete with primary aim to minimise environmental impacts from construction waste, this study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of recycled aggregates on concrete elastic modulus. The outcomes indicate that type of recycled aggregates influences the development of concrete elastic modulus. In general, the use of recycled aggregates posts significant reductions in concrete elastic modulus.
