This chapter deals with the suitability of recycled aggregate concrete for structural applications, with emphasis on coarse recycled aggregates produced from concrete waste. The feasibility of recycled aggregate concrete has been consistently reported worldwide and technical bodies are becoming increasingly receptive to the use …
The application of recycled materials for soil improvement is advantageous from the viewpoint of lowering construction costs, preventing depletion of natural resources, and reducing environmental pollutions. This experimental study investigates the application of recycled concrete aggregates to enhance the strength …
Since the recycled aggregate is obtained from various origins, physical properties of the aggregate are not uniform, which leads to difficulties in the application of the recycled aggregate for new concrete structures . However, the gradation control of the recycled aggregate, which was reproduced by crushing concrete waste, can overcome …
It discusses the research perspectives of recycled aggregate, namely the development of "green" processing methods for recycled aggregate and additional …
RCA has been used successfully and has been specified in paving concrete pavement applications in over 40 states across the U.S. and has been regularly used since the 1970s (Darter et al. 1998). The practice of recycling existing concrete pavements into new paving applications is supported by the Federal Highway

Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) is different from natural aggregate because of RCA's cement paste and contaminants that cause low density and high porosity. In many cases, these properties of RCA that lead to poor engineering qualities are the major reasons that RCA is not recommended as aggregate for Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA). …
This paper presents the behavior of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) made using field demolished concrete as aggregate. The experimental investigations were conducted on M25 grade concrete, 30 no. of cubes of size 150 mm × 150 mm × 150 mm and 15 no. of beam of size 700 mm × 150 mm × 150 mm from which 20 cubes and 10 …
Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is a new type of concrete produced using crushed, screened, and washed recycled aggregate obtained from waste concrete to replace natural aggregate (NA) partially or completely [1]. ... Therefore, it will facilitate the applications of recycled concrete aggregate if the adhered cement mortar can be …
After demolition of old roads and buildings, the removed concrete is often considered worthless and disposed of as demolition waste. By collecting the used …
RCC Applications: RCC is used for mass concrete applications, such as dam construction, or when laying relatively thin, flat layers such as pavement. RCC is often used for large surfaces like parking lots. ... ICFs systems has the potential to contain recycled materials, such as recycled aggregate (from crushed concrete) and recycled ...
A literature review comprising 163 publications published over a period of 26 years from 1992 to 2018 is presented in this paper. …
It is generally used in construction applications to replace primary aggregates in utilized as fill material/sub-base, for road construction or in block manufacture; Blast furnace slag from the iron and ... However …
Kou et al. (Kou and Poon, 2013) investigated the long-term properties (up to ten years) of the outdoor exposed RAC consisting recycled concrete aggregate and fly ash as partial replacement of aggregate and cement, respectively. Four replacement ratios …
Recycling of construction and demolition waste, creating recycled aggregate, is one of the sustainable solutions for the growing waste disposal crisis and depletion of natural aggregate sources caused by the construction sector. However, so far recycled aggregate has mostly been used in low-value applications such as for the …
Recycled aggregate is defined as aggregate resulting from the processing of inorganic or mineral material previously used in construction (BS EN 12620, ... Therefore, it will …
Accumulated construction and demolition waste (CDW) can occupy much land and cause environmental pollution. To dispose of CDW and slow down the depletion of natural resources, the use of recycled aggregates (RA) prepared from CDW as a substitute for natural aggregates (NA) in preparing concrete materials has become an essential …
aggregate as well as to obtain a cross-section of the country. This report identifies the applications where the use of RCA can have engineering, economic, and environmental advantages; the barriers related to these RCA applications; and the best practices that allowed State Transportation Agencies, recycled concrete producers and contractors to
Construction and demolition activities consume large amounts of natural resources, generating 4.5 bi tons of solid waste/year, called construction and demolition waste (C&DW) and other wastes, such as ceramic, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), glass, and slag. Furthermore, around 32 bi tons of natural aggregate (NA) are extracted …
