This article presents the influence of the Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) on the mechanical properties of self-compacting fly ash concrete (M30 Grade). The RCA from local construction demolition site were employed as a replacement for natural coarse aggregate (0% - 30%) in self-compacting concrete (SCC). The Viscosity modifying material used in this study was Class F fly ash. The results indicate that recycled concrete aggregate can be replaced by an optimal 25% replacement percentage in the manufacture of SCC without significantly affecting strength and durability.

This article presents the influence of the Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) on the durability behavior of self-compacting fly ash concrete (M30 Grade). The RCA from local construction demolition site wereemployed as a replacement for natural coarse aggregate (0% - 30%) in self-compacting concrete(SCC). The Viscosity modifying material used in this study was Class F fly ash. Different kinds of tests were conducted on the concrete specimens such as water absorption test, sulphate attack, chloride attack, carbonation test,sorptivity test, etc., When the durability behavior was taken into consideration,the summary of results indicate that recycled concrete aggregate different percentage of replacements as the optimal percentagein the manufacture of SCC without much affecting strength and durability.

The utilisation of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) in Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) has the potential to reduce both the environmental impact and financial cost associated with this increasingly popular concrete type. However, to date limited research exists exploring the use of coarse RCA in SCC. The work presented in this paper seeks to build on the existing knowledge in this area by examining the workability, strength, and fracture properties of SCCs containing 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% coarse RCA. The experimental programme indicated that at RCA utilisation levels of 25% to 50% little or no negative impact was observed for strength, workability, or fracture properties, with the exception of a slight reduction in Young’s modulus.

Durability Properties

In recent years, sustainable construction materials are highly recommended in construction projects due to reduce the degradation of natural resources. An experimental investigation with varying percentages of coarse recycled concrete aggregate was conducted on self-compacting concrete. The primary goal was to explore the suitability and impact of coarse recycled aggregate in concrete fresh generation. The demand for building products has risen tremendously in latest years, so the quantity of building and demolition waste has increased, placing enormous stress to the atmosphere. The use of recycled aggregate in concrete is a suitable solution to extend the lifetime of natural resources and thereby lead to sustainable developments in construction field. In this investigation, SCC is modified by recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) in various percentages of natural coarse aggregate (NCA) substitutes from 0 percent to 100 percent with a 20 percent increase. Durability and the mechanical properties of modified SCC was determined. From the results it is revealed that the substitution of RCA in the place of NCA significantly improved the durability properties.

As the amount of waste concrete has been increased and recycling technique advances, this study investigates the applicability of recycled concrete aggregate for concrete structures. In addition fly ash, the industrial by-product, was considered in the concrete mix. Experimental program performed compressive strength and chloride penetration resistance tests with various replacement levels of fine recycled concrete aggregate and fly ash. In most case, the design strength, 40MPa, was obtained. It was known that the replacement of the fine aggregate with fine RCA may have greater influence on the strength development rather than the addition of fly ash. It is recommended that when complete coarse aggregate is replaced with RCA the fine RCA replacement should be less than 60%. The recycled aggregate concrete can achieve sufficient resistance to the chloride ion penetration and the resistance can be more effectively controlled by adding fly ash. It I finally conclude that the recycled concrete aggregate can be successfully used in the construction field and the recycling rate of waste concrete and flay ash should be increased without causing significant engineering problems.

This paper reports an evaluation of the properties of medium-quality concrete incorporating recycled coarse aggregate (RCA). Concrete specimens were prepared with various percentages of the RCA (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%). The workability, mechanical properties, and durability in terms of abrasion of cured concrete were examined at different ages. The results reveal insignificant differences between the recycled concrete (RC) and reference concrete in terms of the mechanical and durability-related measurements. Meanwhile, the workability of the RC reduced vastly since the replacement of the RCA reached 75% and 100%. The ultrasound pulse velocity (UPV) results greatly depend on the porosity of concrete and the RC exhibited higher porosity than that of the reference concrete, particularly at the transition zone between the RCA and the new paste. Therefore, the sound transmission in the RC required longer times than that in the reference concrete. Moreover, a predictive equation relating the compressive strength to the UPV was developed.
