Green Concrete from Sustainable Recycled Coarse Aggregates: Mechanical and Durability Properties

Mechanical and Physical Properties of Polyester Polymer Concrete Using Recycled Aggregates from Concrete Sleepers

Currently, reuse of solid waste from disused infrastructures is an important environmental issue to study. In this research, polymer concrete was developed by mixing orthophthalic unsaturated polyester resin, artificial microfillers (calcium carbonate), and waste aggregates (basalt and limestone) coming from the recycling process of concrete sleepers. The variation of the mechanical and physica...

mechanical and durability properties of slag based recycled aggregate concrete

in this paper, the possibility of using recycled aggregate (ra) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (ggbfs) to produce a structural concrete was studied by compromising strength to a lesser extent. hence an attempt has been made to study the strength and durability characteristics of the ggbfs-based recycled aggregate concrete. four different groups of mixes were designed by replacing natu...

Bonding Behavior of Deformed Steel Rebars in Sustainable Concrete Containing both Fine and Coarse Recycled Aggregates

In order to assess the bond behavior of deformed steel rebars in recycled-aggregate concrete (RAC) incorporating both fine and coarse recycled aggregate, pull-out tests were carried out in this study on 16-mm diameter deformed steel rebars embedded concentrically in RAC. The concrete was designed using equivalently mixed proportions of both recycled coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate....

Life Cycle Assessment of Sustainable Concrete Made With Recycled Aggregates

The results of an environmental study on concrete manufacture that follows the standard protocol of life cycle assessment are shown in this document. The study has been done for seven types of concrete: one conventional and six containing cement kiln dust (10%), marble sludge (10%) and demolition waste (10%, 80% and 100%) respectively, in partial or total substitution of natural aggregate. Six ...
