The Comparison of Different Recycled Aggregate Types Properties

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper is focused on properties of recycled aggregate. Three types of recycled aggregate were used for experiment (designation REC A, REC B and REC C) and for comparison natural aggregate (designation NA). The geometrical and physical properties of recycled aggregate were tested. The test results were comparison with natural aggregate. The results confirmed that the quality of the recycled aggregate depends on kind of demolishing process and subsequent recycling process in the recycling plant.
