The Mechanical Properties of Recycled Aggregate Concrete

Abstract:

The experimental investigation of the preparation process of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) using the waste concrete as recycled aggregate concrete (RCA) was reported. By conducting a series of laboratory experiments, the crushing and sieving procedure of wasted concrete to produce RCA were studied, the RACs with different strengths were designed, the strengths of hardened concrete were investigated. The results indicated that the representative strength for designing C10, C15 and C25 grade RAC using RCA were 11.3, 16.2 and 27.3 Mpa, respectively. The results gained in this study prove to be a valuable building materials using RCA for doveloping the RAC. Recycling and reuse of building wastes have been found to be an appropriate solution to the problems of dumping hundred of thousands tons of debris accompanied with shortage of natural aggregates.
