Recycled Coarse Aggregate

In order to investigate flexural behavior of simply-supported beam using recycled coarse aggregate concrete, the difference of the component normal section stress distortion performance and failure characteristic between the recycled concrete beam and the normal concrete beam is researched. The approaches of testing the flexural behavior of 6 recycled course aggregate beams with the same section size, different replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate (0%, 50%, 70% and 100%) and different percentage reinforcement (0.68%, 0.89% and 1.13%). Based on the experimental the following conclusions are draw. There are also 4 phases of elasticity, cracking, yield and ultimate during the stress course of recycled concrete beam component normal section stress; the average strain measured on cross-section obliges to the plane section assumption; the characteristics of stress distortion and destruction of recycled concrete beam are basically the same as those of the normal concrete beam. Under same conditions, the cracking moment and the ultimate flexural carrying capability of recycled concrete beam is almost the same as those of normal concrete beam. The deformation of recycled concrete beam is larger than concrete beam. The conclusion of the paper is that it is still feasible to calculate the ultimate bending moment, cracking moment, and the biggest crack width of recycled concrete beam according to the formula in China Concrete Structure Design Code, but the deflection formula needs to be adjusted.

Reinforced concrete is one of the most widely used building materials in Indonesia due to its workability, easiness, and reasonable price. Meanwhile, it is very important to understand the response of these elements during the loading process to ensure the development of an effective structure and one of the most effective numerical methods for reinforced concrete elements is the Finite Element Analysis (FEA). This study was, therefore, conducted to investigate the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beam using a nonlinear finite element analysis through the application of the MSC MARC/MENTAT software program. This involved the use of a solid element to represent concrete while the truss bar was applied for reinforcing steel after which multi-linear and bilinear models were considered for the two elements respectively while embedded reinforcement model was applied to model the rebar. Moreover, the beam model was also studied and compared with experimental data from previous literature. The result showed the load-deflection to have significantly increased due to an increment in the steel reinforcement yield strength. The same was also observed for the concrete compressive strength while a decrease was recorded in deflection due to the reduction in the compressive strength because the strain was reaching the crushing value. Furthermore, the concrete tension model was found to be the same with the experimental results with the tensile strength observed to have lost its strength after reaching the tensile stress while the contact behavior of the modeled reinforced concrete beam showed the existence of a slip at the support and loading points.

At present, there are not any systematic researches on the fundamental performance of recycled concrete(RC). Thus it incites the inadequate confidence for the usage of RC. In this thesis, four different kinds of RC whose strength are C20、C25、C30、C35 respectively,are made using various mixing proportion. Then the influence rule of different recycled aggregate mixture quantities is drawn out, which consists the impacts on compressive strength, axial compressive strength, splitting strength, elastic modulus as well as the bending strength of RC. Meanwhile, the relation between the cubic compressive strength and the splitting strength, elastic modulus, axial compressive strength, bending strength is imitated, which provides study basis for the using of wasted concrete.

Comparative experiments on the ordinary steel fiber recycled concrete (SFRC) and roller compacted SFRC were carried out to research the fracture properties of roller compacted SFRC. The results show that compressive strength, fracture toughness and fracture energy of roller compacted SFRC increase with the increase of fiber volume fraction. Compressive strength increase with the increase of recycled aggregate replacement rate and fracture toughness decrease, however, Crack tip opening displacement has little changes and fracture energy features fluctuation with the replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregates increasing. The rolled formed layers have significant influence on the fracture properties of SFRC. The fracture toughness of roller compacted SFRC is generally lower than ordinary SFRC and compressive strength is higher than ordinary steel fiber concrete for the same aggregate replacement ratio and fiber volume fraction. Fracture energy of roller compacted SFRC is higher than ordinary SFRC for the higher steel fiber volume ratio.

Geopolymer recycled aggregate concrete (GRAC) is a new green construction material, which uses geopolymer as the binder and recycled concrete as aggregates. To compare the flexural performance of GRAC and ordinary recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) beams, static loading tests were conducted on seven GRAC beams and three RAC beams. The effects of the replacement ratio of recycled aggregates (RAs), the replacement patterns, and the reinforcement ratio on the flexural behavior of GRAC beams are evaluated. The test data show that the replacement ratio has no significant effect on the cracking pattern, failure mode, or bending capacity of GRAC beams, but the replacement pattern does have an effect. Under a given replacement ratio, replacing only the larger fraction of natural aggregates (NA) with RA improves the concrete strength and crack resistance of both RAC and GRAC beams, compared to that using same replacement percentage for all fractions. Due to the lower elastic modulus and strength of GRAC prepared in this study, the GRAC beams have lower height of neutral axis and greater deflection than RAC beams at the same load level and possess slightly lower cracking load, bending capacity, and ductility. The bending capacity of GRAC beams can be predicted by the formulas proposed for ordinary reinforced concrete beams in the Chinese code GB50010-2010, ACI 318-11, or BS EN 1992-1-1:2004 codes, but the safety margin is generally lower than that of ordinary reinforced concrete beams.
