Every year, there is a considerable increase in the exploitation of deposits to supply the market for aggregates. On the other hand, so does the production of solid waste from construction and demolition waste (CDW). In 2010 Brazil approved the PNRS (National Policy on Solid Waste), which sets out how the country should have their waste, encouraging recycling and sustainability. As an alternative to the above problem, this paper aims to investigate the feasibility of partial and total replacement of the asphalt concrete aggregates by recycled aggregates from CDW in order to reduce the environmental impacts caused by the operation of quarries and give an adequate final destination the residue produced by man in construction. Were carried out five (05) projects mixture of: the first (parameter of our research) used only natural aggregates (0% CDW) in the second, third and fourth replaced 25%, 50% and 75% respectively of natural aggregate by the recycled aggregate and the fifth and last, used only recycled aggregates (100% CDW). They carried out the characterization of the aggregates by means of physico-chemical and mechanical, analyzing them with reference based on specific standards paving. For mixtures, they calculated the volumetric parameters and performed mechanical tests of tensile strength and stability. The results indicate that the recycled aggregate, in a defined proportion, can replace the natural aggregate in the flexible pavements

The use of recycled aggregate in new concrete has often been limited due to concerns over their quality and structural performance. This research aims to investigate the physical properties of recycled roof tile aggregate and its suitability for concrete production. Physical properties of recycled roof tile aggregate are compared to normal crushed stone aggregate. Effects of recycled roof tile aggregates on strength and durability of recycled roof tile concrete was compared with normal aggregate concrete using mechanical properties and durability tests. The experimental results showed that high water absorption and low strength of aggregate have a great effect on the workability and strength of the concrete containing recycled roof tile aggregate. Aggregate density, water absorption, crushing value and abrasion value of the recycled roof tile aggregate were found to be lower than crushed stone aggregate and concrete containing recycled roof tile aggregate had low strength and slow strength development. Similar durability performance of recycled roof tile aggregate concrete and normal aggregate concrete was observed except when exposed to freezing and thawing.

Construction is a serious environmental problem and a challenge for people who concerned with sustainability in the construction field. Previous studies showed positive results for the use of recycled aggregates in the concrete production. This study portrays the results for utilizing construction debris for casting different types of concrete blocks. The recycled concrete debris was used in different ratios (0%, 50%, and 100%) in replacement for natural coarse aggregates for different targeted compressive strength (B250, B300, B350 and B400). Two types of water (pure and sea water) were used for curing the blocks. In addition, hollow block and paving block were casted with different ratios of recycled aggregate (0%, 20%, 45% and 100%) and cured with two types of water. The results showed a decrease in compressive strength with the increase recycled aggregate content. It was also noticed that the absorption capacity increases with high recycled aggregate content.

Recycled aggregates are those crushed cement concrete or asphalt pavement which comes out from the construction debris which is reused in construction. They are made from the reprocessing of materials which have been used in previous constructions. This paper discusses about the study of properties of recycled aggregates from the sources which has already been published. The results are that 100% replacement of natural aggregate by recycled concrete aggregate effect on chloride ions resistance, it plays negative effects on durability of recycled concrete aggregates, and addition of fiber in recycled aggregate concrete mixture gave more effective in the performance of concrete. On experimental study of recycled aggregate, compressive, flexural and split tensile strength of the recycled aggregate were found to be lower than that of the natural aggregate. Use of recycled aggregate in a new concrete production is still limited. Recommendation of introduction of recycled aggregates standard is required for the materials to be used successfully in future. Gaps in literature reviews are also included in this paper.

Recycled aggregate is a good option to be used in concrete production as a coarse aggregate that results in environmental benefits as well as sustainable development. However, recycled aggregate causes a reduction in the mechanical and durability performance of concrete. On the other hand, the removal of industrial waste would be considerably decreased if it could be incorporated into concrete production. One of these possibilities is the substitution of the cement by slag, which enhances the concrete poor properties of recycled aggregate concrete as well as provides a decrease in cement consumption, reducing carbon dioxide production, while resolving a waste management challenge. Furthermore, steel fiber was also added to enhance the tensile capacity of recycled aggregate concrete. The main goal of this study was to investigate the characteristics of concrete using ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) as a binding material on recycled aggregate fibers reinforced concrete (RAFRC). Mechanical performance was assessed through compressive strength and split tensile strength, while durability aspects were studied through water absorption, acid resistance, and dry shrinkage. The results detected from the different experiments depict that, at an optimum dose (40% RCA, 20%GGBS, and 2.0%), compressive and split tensile strength were 39% and 120% more than the reference concrete, respectively. Furthermore, acid resistance at the optimum dose was 36% more than the reference concrete. Furthermore, decreased water absorption and dry shrinkage cracks were observed with the substitution of GGBS into RAFRC.

Most regulations only allow the use of the coarse fraction of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) for the manufacture of new concrete, although the heterogeneity of RCA makes it difficult to predict the compressive strength of concrete, which is an obstacle to the incorporation of RCA in concrete production. The compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete is closely related to the dosage of its constituents. This article proposes a novel artificial neural network (ANN) model to predict the 28-day compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete. The ANN used in this work has 11 neurons in the input layer: the mass of cement, fly ash, water, superplasticizer, fine natural aggregate, coarse natural or recycled aggregate, and their properties, such as: sand fineness modulus of sand, water absorption capacity, saturated surface dry density of the coarse aggregate mix and the maximum particle size. Two training methods were used for the ANN combining 15 and 20 hidden layers: Levenberg–Marquardt (LM) and Bayesian Regularization (BR). A database with 177 mixes selected from 15 studies incorporating RCA were selected, with the aim of having an underlying set of data heterogeneous enough to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach, even when data are heterogeneous and noisy, which is the main finding of this work.

High consumption of freshwater and natural aggregate in concrete production becomes a matter of some concern that has been discussed recent years. An alternative partially or totally replacement for both materials is significant issue to reduce the negative impacts on the environment. Therefore, the aim of this research is to observe explicitly the effect of using seawater as mixing combined with recycled coarse aggregate and other material to make new recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) under compressive load. The experimental laboratory test was conducted to total of thirty cylinders specimens of two to groups of mix design with w/c of 0.45. First was three types of percentage level of recycled coarse aggregate with targeted compressive strength of 25 MPa. The second was two types of mixtures and totally replaced by recycled coarse aggregate with targeted compressive strength of 30 MPa. Some specimens were mixed by seawater and all were placed in the freshwater-curing during some definite period of 7 and 28 days. The results show that the seawater and recycle aggregate were not significant influence to reduce the compression strength for first mix category, while the second mix category was having great influence up to 22% at 28 days. The reduction in compressive strength increases with an increase the targeted compressive load.

This paper reviews several key issues related to the use of natural aggregate (NA) for concrete production, in view of the high demand for materials to meet the rapid construction development in Malaysia. The current paper aims to discuss the potential of recycling waste concrete to generate recycled aggregates (RA) that may be used as alternative aggregate sources in the production of concrete. Moreover, several major challenges to the use of RA for concrete production are also highlighted. This paper also provides an action plan to encourage the construction industry’s wide usage of RA to achieve sustainable construction.
