Torsional Strength of Recycled Coarse Aggregate Reinforced Concrete Beams

This study discusses the torsional capacity of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) reinforced concrete beams under pure torsion based on experimental findings available in literature. The data RCA specimens were collected and compared with conventional key variables, such as compressive strength longitudinal transverse reinforcement ratios, those variables affect beams. Overall, database consisted results from 30 256 natural (NCA) specimens. result shows that a 100 % replacement ratio have lowest strength. In addition, structural mechanism is similar to shear beams, comparative analysis was performed subjected force. It concluded has effect reduction for or 100% ratio. However, further evidence are required confirm applicability produce design members.
