Authors J SingletongreenAbout Bulk density Fineness Grading Absorption Impurity Specific gravityJan 26, 2015Concrete is a mixture of cement and aggregate that has been crushed to a range of sizes, from very fine to somewhat chunky. There are a number of reasons to recycle concrete. Concrete is part of a recycling category called "construction and demolition" (or CD) waste.

The reason for the drop in quality is mainly related to the quality of the recycled aggregate. The high water absorption of recycled aggregate has a negative impact of concrete mix workability and influences the water-cement ratio. This paper presents the effect of recycled aggregate quality on the physical and mechanical properties of concrete.

1 day agoAsphalt pavement production consists of mixing sand and aggregate with asphalt or bitumen. The process produces a hot, concrete mix that is laid on road surfaces. It is a common industry practice to mix in recycled asphalt paving with the new concrete mix. However, some problems could surface with the use of recycled asphalt paving.

An innovative way to give new value to Recycled Concrete Aggregates (RCAs) is to ram them in layers to form load-bearing walls for stabilised Rammed Earth (RE) applications. However, the success of those few existing RE projects using RCA is mainly due to the knowledge and experience of the contractors rather than official standards or guidelines or scientific literature.

Corrosionpedia explains Aggregate. Aggregates should be clean, hard and free from absorbed chemicals or coatings of clay and other fine materials when added to cement for a good concrete mix. Without cleaning, aggregate can cause the deterioration of concrete quality. Recycled aggregates are also used as partial replacements of natural aggregates in composite materials.
