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 …
The disadvantage of this type of concrete is poor strength and durability. Researches have been going yet in the recycled concrete to overcome those disadvantages. This paper reviews the recent developments that were made by the researchers in the Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC).

Expanded clay lightweight aggregate. Structural grades concrete. Not available. Recycled Aggregates Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) Crushed sound and clean waste concrete of at least 95% by weight of concrete with typical total contamination lower than 1% of the bulk mass. Class 1A RCA is a well graded RCA with no more than 0.5% brick content.
Recycled concrete aggregate is considered as the most abundant and used secondary aggregate in concrete production, other types of solid waste are also being used in concrete for specific purposes ...
After demolition of old roads and buildings, the removed concrete is often considered worthless and disposed of as demolition waste. By collecting the used concrete and breaking it up, recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is created (Fig. 1).This paper focuses on coarse RCA which is the coarse aggregate from the original concrete that is created after the mortar is separated from the …

Apart from aiding the environment, exploitation of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) as a potential substitute for natural aggregates (NA) contributes to a framework of sustainable development as well as helps in maintaining an ecological balance by avoiding fast depletion of natural resources of aggregates.
A trial production of the recycled concrete (water–cement ratio of 50%, slump 18 cm, recycled coarse aggregate of BS in Table 4) using an actual truck agitator was carried out, so as to determine production conditions under which the on-site mixing method would yield the same homogeneity in concrete quality as that obtained by the ordinary ...
The necessity to produce recycled aggregate concrete with low–medium compressive strength was verified due to the requirement of the volume of cement. The influence of the order of materials used in concrete production (made with recycled aggregates) with respect to improving its splitting tensile strength was analysed. The lower modulus of
Recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) are used in existing green building composites to promote the environmental preservation of natural coarse aggregates (NCA). Besides, the use of RCA leads to potential solutions to the social and economic problems caused by concrete waste. It is found that insufficient information on the longevity and sustainability of RCA production is a serious issue that ...
Utilising high-quality recycled aggregates and its on-site concrete batching plant, Velde Pukk AS supplies the construction industry with a CE-certified concrete from recycled sand and aggregates. Likewise, AF Gruppen, also based in Norway, produces high-quality washed sands and aggregates which have also Norwegian standard certification.
Recycled concrete aggregate is the term used to describe the material produced from crushed construction and demolition waste, primarily consisting of concrete but also including aggregate materials such as sand, gravel, slag, and crushed stones. Recycled aggregates are only classified as recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) when the primary ...

Recycled concrete aggregates can be utilized in different construction applications. These include the use of RCA in the production of concrete [7]–[9], as secondary raw material in concrete curbs and floor blocks [10], [11], in precast concrete products [12], and as an engineering fill …
This paper describes the results of experimental work carried out to establish the effect of the production method on the quality of recycled aggregate concrete and concrete made with this material. The manufacturing process selected was limited to granularity regulation and original mortar was not removed [1,2]. The real-scale plant was used to produce recycled aggregates. During …
5.2.3.4 Recycled aggregates (1) Recommendations for the use of coarse recycled aggregates are given in Annex E. NOTE No recommendations for the use of fine recycled aggregate are given in this standard. Annex A Initial tests (9) Where concrete containing recycled aggregates is to be produced, the need to carry

Recycled Aggregate Characteristics. The crushing characteristics of hardened concrete are similar to those of natural rock and are not significantly affected by the grade or quality of the original concrete. Recycled concrete aggregates produced from all but the poorest quality original concrete can be expected to pass the same tests required ...

2.6 Recycled Concrete as Aggregate for Structural Concrete Production. 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.
Shrinkage property is a significant indicator of the durability of concrete, and the shrinkage of green recycled concrete is particularly problematic. In this paper, construction waste was crushed and screened to generate simple-crushed recycled coarse aggregate (SCRCA). The SCRCA was then subjected to particle shaping to create primary particle-shaped recycled coarse aggregate …
Recycled aggregates, such as the ones used in making the sub-base and base layers of roads and the ones used as replacement of natural aggregates in concrete production, may give an important ...

The world's waste production is at its highest level ever following the development of new world powers.
Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is produced in three major steps: Evaluation of Source concrete: The first step in production of RAC is to determine the quality of the source concrete. Properties and records of source concrete like strength, durability and composition are looked into for deciding the proper source concrete.
Annex 2 details the main standards and specifications relating to aggregates. The majority of recycled aggregate in Scotland is either capping material (e.g. 6F4 and 6F5) or subbase (e.g. Type 1). Some production sites can produce aggregates for concrete, such as washed sand, but this is …

A novel aggregate (RPA) comprising recycled plastic was developed. The aggregate produced was lightweight, with a density ranging from 510 to 750 k kg / m 3 and absorption of from 2.7 to 9.81%. Other properties were comparable to aggregates of similar densities. Various composition RPA was used in concrete, and the resulting properties of both ...
