Today, efforts are underway in a number of areas to conserve the environment and protect natural resource. In the construction industry, many researchers have studied the development of new concrete using recycled aggregate (RA). This research proposes a multiple regression model (MRM) for predicting the compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). The compressive strength data of 85 specimens of RAC strengths were used for constructing and evaluating the prediction model. The average error rate of the constructed MRM evaluation is 7.18 percent. This result will be useful for predicting the compressive strength of RAC using multiple regression analysis.

With the increase in the use of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC), it is necessary to clearly understand its behavior and characteristics. In this paper, experimental study on compressive strength of RAC with same water/cement ratio is conducted. Firstly, influence of recycled coarse aggregate contents on cube compressive strength of RAC is studied. Secondly, experiment on time-dependent strength developing process of RAC is conducted with different solidification ages. Finally, based on above experimental investigations, empirical formula for compress strengths of RAC with different ages is presented. The result of this paper is helpful to theoretical analysis and practical engineering design of RAC structures.
