This paper presents research results of recycled fine aggregate concrete testing. The main aim of this contribution is verification of properties of fine aggregate concrete with partial replacement of fine natural aggregate by recycled masonry aggregate originated from construction and demolition waste. The influence of partial replacement of natural sand to mechanical properties and freeze-thaw resistance is described. The compressive strength and flexural strength were tested at the age of 28 and 60 days and after 25, 50, 75 and 100 freeze-thaw cycles. Partial replacement of natural sand was 0, 25 and 50 % for all these tests. Prismatic specimens were examined.

As an eco-material, the application of recycled aggregate concrete and rapid repair concrete has been deeply researched in recent years. But the application of recycled aggregate concrete with recycled fine aggregate and recycled powder in pavement rapid repair project is seldom. Combing with the related literatures and our own engineering practice, the state-of-the-art report of recycled aggregate concrete and rapid repair concrete is presented, and hope to supply a new way to solve the long-standing issue of waste cement concrete recycling and rapid opening traffic simultaneously.

Resistance to sulfate degradation is an important index used to measure concrete’s durability. In this study, recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) with a 0%, 30%, and 50% recycled coarse aggregate substitution rate and a 0% and 15% recycled fine aggregate replacement rate was used as the research object, and its degradation resistance was evaluated by the mass loss rate and the relative dynamic modulus of elasticity. The degradation products were studied and analyzed with SEM scanning electron microscopy and XRD phase analysis. The relative dynamic modulus of elasticity was selected as the degradation index, the RAC concrete’s degradation resistance was modeled by Wiener, and the reliability curve was obtained. The results showed that expansion products, such as gypsum and Ettringite, were produced in RAC concrete in a dry-wet sulfate cycling environment, and such defects as pores and voids were filled in the initial stage. The stress the expansion products exerted in the later stage caused the concrete to crack and peel, which demonstrated that the fluctuation law of mass and the dynamic elastic modulus increased first and then decreased. The recycled coarse aggregate substitution ratio’s effect on RAC concrete is higher than that of recycled fine aggregate. The reliability curve established by the Wiener model can reflect the reliability of RAC concrete under different cycles well and can obtain RAC concrete’s sulfate degradation resistance life with different aggregate substitution rates.

Due to long test cycle, high cost and the complex factors, the long-term deformation properties (such as creep and shrinkage) of recycled aggregate concrete (short for RAC) are rarely reported so far. However this property is essential to fully understanding and widely applying the RAC. Base on investigation on plenty of research results of the long-term deformation of RAC, this paper systematically analyzed the effect of recycled coarse aggregate (C-RA) and recycled fine aggregate (F-RA) on creep and shrinkage performance of concrete. The analysis shows that not only the replacement proportion but also the quality level of recycle aggregate (RA) affect the shrinkage and creep properties of RAC. This outcome could serve as a basis for further research.

This study is taken up to utilise the recycled coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate as replacement of natural aggregate in concrete mix. It is required to find the percentage of recycled coarse aggragate and recycled fine aggregate, as the strength of concrete can not be achieved by using higher percentaged. The purpose of study is to compare between recycled coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate with natural coarse aggregate and sand in terms of specific gravity, water absorption, particle size distribution. Further, this stydy will also consider the difference between the performance of Recycled Aggregate Concrete for different percentages of recycled coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate i.e for 0%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35% replacement. The present study is an experimental investigation on the behaviour of recycled aggregate concrete (coarse& fine aggregates) with respect to the strength and performance.

The properties of recycled fine aggregate(RFA) from waste recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) were determined. In this study, five series of parental concrete mixtures using natural coarse and fine aggregates were prepared, which had the same target slump value from 35mm to 50mm and different compressive strengths ranging from 25MPa to 60 MPa. These concretes were used as recycled aggregates to prepare RACs with a compressive target strength of 30MPa. After that, these RACs were used as secondly recycled aggregates to produce RACs with the same compressive target strength of 30MPa. The physical properties of RFAs including apparent density, compacted bulk density and water absorption were tested. At the same time, fineness modulus of natural fine aggregates and RAFs were calculated and their mineral compositions were analyzed. The results showed that RAFs from waste RACs were not adequate to structural concrete alone because they belonged to coarse tape and their mineral compositions were adverse to the best growth of strength of RACs.
