Recycled concrete aggregates have large porosity, large water absorption and high crush index. Mechanical properties of recycled concrete aggregates could be improved by adding activated water instead of ordinary water. On the basis of the experimental studies, this paper analyzes the influences on recycled concrete compression strength when using activated water. There are many different factors such as the kinds and amounts of alkali and the water slag ratio affecting the compressive strength of recycle geopolymer. The results show that activated water has a high enhancement on compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete, and the highest compressive strength of recycled geopolymer is 57.3MPa.
