Recent scientific concerns to achieve sustainability in construction have suggested the implementation of using recycled aggregate in concrete because it has the potential to reduce the demand for extraction of natural raw materials and decrease the volume of wastes landfilled. In this respect, this study aims to investigate the suitability of using ceramic tile (CT) and ceramic sanitary (CS) w...

the purpose of this research was to evaluate the application of recycled aggregates of constructiondebris such as concrete, cement block and rubbles from pars-kangan site in asphalt concrete mix design. toevaluate the performance of aggregates different mix designs with recycled aggregate percentages of 0, 10,30, 50 and bitumen percentages of 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, and 6.5 were provided and two mar...

By increasing the demolition of old concrete structures and the interest of civil industries to consume cheaper materials, using Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) can cause environmental protection and decrease the construction costs. On the other hand, the high potential of Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) in concrete industry was established by extensive experimental researches were performe...

The practical use of recycled concrete aggregate produced by crushing concrete waste reduces the consumption of natural aggregate and the amount of concrete waste that ends up in landfills. This study investigated two methods used in the production of fine recycled concrete aggregate: (1) a method that produces fine as well as coarse aggregate, and (2) a method that produces only fine aggregate...

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...

Sweden’s concrete waste is recycled for use in low-utility purposes such as in the construction of sub-bases in roads but hardly as aggregates in new concrete. To analyse the potential for high-utility recycling, a literature study was conducted on the regulatory instruments, building standards, production and properties of recycled concrete aggregates and the recycled aggregate concrete for Sw...

Results: The experiment results indicate that the type of recycled aggregate and its replacement ratio have significant effects on the freezethaw performance. The cubic compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete is overall slightly lower than that of normal concrete. After 100 freeze-thaw cycles, the compressive strength decreases and the reduction extent increases with increasing repl...

With the strengthened regulation on the mandatory use of recycled aggregate, development of construction materials using recycled aggregate has recently increased. This study aimed to secure the performance of asphalt concrete mixture by developing recycled-modified asphalt using recycled basalt aggregate from the Jeju area. The strength of the basalt aggregate from the Jeju area used in this s...

In 1995, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) began reconstruction in Houston on a section of IH-10 with continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP). The unique aspect of this project was the use of crushed concrete as both coarse and fine aggregates in the new concrete. No virgin aggregates were used. The primary objectives of this study were to evaluate (1) the material propert...

A comparative analysis of the experimental results of the properties of fresh and hardened concrete with different replacement ratios of natural with recycled coarse aggregate is presented in the paper. Recycled aggregate was made by crushing the waste concrete of laboratory test cubes and precast concrete columns. Three types of concrete mixtures were tested: concrete made entirely with natura...
