Influence of replacement ratio and water-cement ratio on the recycled concrete mechanical properties were analyzed by testing the compressive strength and tensile strength of the recycled concrete. Results show that the mechanical properties of recycled concrete, compared with common concrete, can meet the requirements of the project. Water-cement ratio has great influence on compressive strength and tensile strength, replacement ratio has obvious influence on compressive strength but little on tensile.

The experiment studies how the freeze-thaw cycles influence concrete compressive strength and elasticity modulus with different water-cement ratio under the air-entraining agent and zero of that value respectively. It can be found that modulus of elasticity and compressive strength of the concrete specimen reduced significantly when there is air-entraining agent; the durability of freeze-thaw resistance, however, makes great improvement; as the cement increases, both of them improves effectively. Through the comparison of concrete compressive strength and elastic modulus with different water-cement ratio and air-entraining agent, the optimal water-cement ratio and air-entraining agent were determined. The results of experiment can be used in concrete engineering design in severe cold area.

The mechanical properties of recycled concrete aggregate form Al-Anbar province in Iraq is presented in this paper. Recycled concrete and stone aggregates were utilized as replacements for both natural and crushed virgin aggregate. Four series of tests were conducted to study various replacement ratios (0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.0) effect on compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of rupture. Density of concrete in addition to its water absorption were also investigated. Results of this work show that replacing natural and crushed virgin aggregate with waste concrete aggregate extracted from left-over concrete cubes and concrete barriers did not affect its mechanical properties significantly. In fact, in this study the general trend is that the compressive strength increases with increasing the replacement ratio from 0.0 to 1.0. However, the tensile strength showed different behaviour as there was a limit for the strength increase with replacement ratio where beyond it the strength started decreasing again. This limit varied between 0.50 and 0.75 depending on the type of aggregate used and the type of the test. The age of test did not affect the behaviour of the trialled mixes significantly. In addition to that, recycled stone aggregate proved to be an alternative choice only for lower grade concrete because it reduced both compressive and tensile strength in comparison to the reference mix.

Abstract. Recycled aggregate—rural building material wastes pretreated by cement mortar—are applied into concrete with different replacement rates: 0, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. Results from measurements of compressive strength, cleavage tensile strength, mass loss after fast freeze-thaw cycles, and compressive strength loss indicate that a different recycled aggregate replacement rate certainly influences concrete mechanical properties and frost resistance. Recycled aggregate replacement rates less than 75% performs better than common concrete. Data from the 100% replacement rate is worse than that of rates less than 75% but still satisfy the general demands of GB standard on C30 concrete.

Concrete building safety of fire is better than other building materials such as wood, plastic, and steel,because it is incombustible and emitting no toxic fumes during high temperature exposure. However,the deterioration of concrete because of high temperature exposure will reduce the concrete strength.Mechanical properties such as compressive strength and modulus of elasticity are absolutely corruptedduring and after the heating process. This paper aims to investigate mechanical properties of concrete(especially compressive strength and modulus of elasticity) with various water-cement ratio afterconcrete suffered by high temperature exposure of 500oC.This research conducted experimental method and analytical method. The experimental methodproduced concrete specimens with specifications: (1) specimen’s dimension is 150 mm x 300 mmconcrete cylinder; (2) compressive strength design, f’c = 22.5 MPa; (3) water-cement ratio variation =0.4, 0.5, and 0.6. All specimens are cured in water for 28 days. Some specimens were heated for 1hour with high temperature of 500oC in huge furnace, and the others that become specimen-controlwere unheated. All specimens, heated and unheated, were evaluated by compressive test.Experimental data was analyzed to get compressive strength and modulus of elasticity values. Theanalytical method aims to calculate modulus of elasticity of concrete from some codes and to verifythe experimental results. The modulus elasticity of concrete is calculated by 3 expressions: (1) SNI03-2847-1992 (which is the same as ACI 318-99 section 8.5.1), (2) ACI 318-95 section 8.5.1, and (3)CEB-FIP Model Code 1990 Section 2.1.4.2.The experimental and analytical results found that: (1) The unheated specimens with water-cementratio of 0.4 have the greatest value of compressive strength, while the unheated specimens with watercementratio of 0.5 gets the greatest value of modulus of elasticity. The greatest value of compressivestrength of heated specimens provided by specimens with water-cement ratio of 0.5, while the heatedspecimens with water-cement ratio of 0.4 gets the greatest value of modulus of elasticity, (2) Allheated specimens lose their strength at high temperature of 500oC, (3) The analytical result shows thatmodulus of elasticity calculated by expression III has greater values compares to expression I and II,but there is only little difference value among those expressions, and (4)The variation of water-cementratio of 0.5 becomes the optimum value.

The nano metakaolin (NMK) was prepared by thermal activation of kaolin clay for 2 hours at 750 Ċ. The cement used in this investigation consists of ordinary Portland cement (OPC). The OPC was partially substituted by NMK of ( 3, 5 & 10%) by weight of cement. The C45 concrete was prepared , using water/cement ratio ( W/c) of (0.53) .The Water absorption was tested at 28 days while the tests (compressive strength ,splitting tensile strength) were tested at ages of (7, 28, 60,& 90) days . The compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of concrete with NMK were higher than that of reference concrete with the same W/c ratio.The improvement in the compressive strength when using NMK was (42.2, 55.8 , 63.1% ) at age 28 days for ( 3%, 5%, &10% ) replacement of NMK respectively whereas the improvement in the splitting tensile strength was (0% , 36% & 46.8 %) at age of 28 days when using (3%, 5%, &10% ) NMK respectively. The improvement in the water absorption was (16.6%, 21.79%, &25.6 ) when using (3, 5, &10% )NMK.
