The Properties of Fine Recycled Aggregate Concrete Containing Recycled Bricks from Construction and Demolition Waste

Abstract:

This paper presents research results of recycled fine aggregate concrete testing. The main aim of this contribution is verification of properties of fine aggregate concrete with partial replacement of fine natural aggregate by recycled masonry aggregate originated from construction and demolition waste. The influence of partial replacement of natural sand to mechanical properties and freeze-thaw resistance is described. The compressive strength and flexural strength were tested at the age of 28 and 60 days and after 25, 50, 75 and 100 freeze-thaw cycles. Partial replacement of natural sand was 0, 25 and 50 % for all these tests. Prismatic specimens were examined.
