Objective: Measure and study the mechanical properties and abrasion resistance of recycled aggregate concrete in order to provide experimental basis for the application of recycled aggregate concrete in engineering. Method: Use recycled aggregate concrete with replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate respectively for 0%, 30%, 50%, 80% and 100% to do the slump, compressive strength, modulus of elasticity and abrasion resistance tests on them. Result: The workability of concrete decreases with the increase of recycled coarse aggregate content. Mechanical properties of concrete change as the replacement ratios of recycled coarse aggregate change. Conclusion: The recycled aggregate concrete and natural aggregate concrete have similar abrasion resistance. The recycled aggregate concrete can be applied in engineering.

Strength And Durability

The properties of recycled coarse aggregate and the slump, the physical and mechanical properties and durability of recycled aggregate concrete were studied through tests. The results indicate that the slump, compressive strength and durability of concrete with recycled aggregate are lower than that of concrete with natural aggregate when recycled coarse aggregate fully absorbs water. However, the slump can be similar to that of concrete with natural aggregate. The properties of recycled aggregate concrete can be improved by strengthening the recycled coarse aggregate, and it is also found that the recycled coarse aggregate strengthened by grinding is superior to that soaked by chemical solution.

Multiaxial Compression

The mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete under multiaxial compression were tested by servo-controlled setup (TAWZ-5000/3000). Properties of strength and stress–strain relation were obtained, and the influence factors of stress ratio and recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio were analyzed. The results show that the strength of recycled aggregate concrete under multiaxial compression is higher than that of under uniaxial state, the stress ratio and recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio have obvious effect on strength, and the shape of stress–strain curve is also varied with different levels of the two factors. Failure criterion can reflect the strength relation for recycled concrete under multiaxial stress state. Kupfer’s failure criterion is selected to describe strength properties under biaxial stress state, and the failure envelope reflects the energy absorption of different mix series. Based on octahedral stress theory, the tensile and compressive meridians have been proposed to analyze the strength characteristics under triaxial compression, and the theoretical values are well coherent with the test data.

Freezing And Thawing Cycles

The eccentric compressive behavior of 18 recycled aggregate concrete columns after freezing and thawing cycles were investigated. The effect of the number of freezing and thawing cycles, the replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate, and the eccentricity of axial loading on the eccentric compressive behavior of columns was analyzed. The results show that the strain distribution along the depth of cross section of columns was plane during the eccentric compression test after freezing and thawing cycles. With the increase in the freezing and thawing cycles and the replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate, the failure modes of partial specimens turned from ductile tension failure to brittle compression failure. Two existing design methods for calculating the bearing capacity of conventional concrete columns subjected to eccentric compressive loading were verified to be effective for evaluating that of recycled aggregate concrete columns after limited freezing and thawing cycles.

Seven axially square CFRP steel tubular confined recycled aggregate concrete long columns were experimentally investigated to study their static behavior. The influence of the slenderness ratio, recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio, layers of CFRP jackets effect on the performance of axial compression. The test results show that the higher the recycled coarse aggregate content and the slenderness ratio, the greater the specimen ultimate bearing capacity is smaller, and the more the layers of CFRP jackets, the greater the specimen ultimate bearing capacity.

Tubular Columns

Experimental and theoretical investigation on the fire performance of concentrically loaded recycled aggregate concrete–filled square steel tubular columns with or without fire protective coating is reported in this article. Tests of nine specimens were conducted with the variation in the recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio, axial compressive load ratio and thickness of fire protective coating. The failure pattern, typical temperature development, axial displacement and fire resistance of the tested specimens are presented and analysed. The experimental results reveal that the temperatures of the core concrete decrease with increasing recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio and decreasing thickness of fire protective coating under the same fire exposure time. In general, the specimens with the recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio of 50% have a similar behaviour as the corresponding specimen with normal concrete; however, the performance of specimens with the recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio of 100% is clearly different from the reference specimen with normal concrete. Moreover, the fire resistance of recycled aggregate concrete–filled square steel tubular columns increases with an increase in the thickness of fire protective coating and a decrease in axial compressive load ratio. A finite element analysis model was developed for simulating the performance of recycled aggregate concrete–filled square steel tubular columns exposed to fire, and the finite element analysis model was validated against the experimental results.

Green recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) with high strength and low shrinkage is prepared based on recycled coarse aggregate produced by the particle-shaping and aggregate-strengthening method and green low-carbon new cement. This not only effectively alleviates the shortage of natural resources, but also improves the performance of recycled aggregate concrete, which is of great significance for multi-channel resource utilization of construction waste. In this study, three kinds of recycled coarse aggregates (RCA), including simple crushing recycled coarse aggregate (JD-RCA), one-time particle-shaping recycled coarse aggregate (KL-RCA) and two-time particle-shaping recycled coarse aggregate (EKL-RCA), were prepared from the preparation technology of recycled aggregate, and high belite sulphoaluminate cement with excellent performance was used. The effects of aggregate quality, aggregate replacement ratio, and cementitious material content on mechanical properties and shrinkage properties of green recycled aggregate concrete were studied in comparison with ordinary Portland cement-based recycled aggregate concrete. The testing results show that the particle-shaping method can effectively improve the aggregate quality. The compressive strength and dry shrinkage performance of recycled aggregate concrete made of particle-shaped aggregate are only a little different from those of natural aggregate concrete, and even the performance of recycled aggregate is better than that of natural aggregate concrete under the condition of a low replacement ratio of recycled aggregate. In addition, high belite sulphoaluminate cement-based recycled aggregate concrete (HBRAC) not only has early strength and rapid hardening, but also has excellent drying shrinkage resistance, and its shrinkage rate can be reduced to more than 75% compared with ordinary Portland cement-based recycled aggregate concrete (OPRAC).

Recycled Coarse Aggregate

This paper presents the experimental results of recycled aggregate concrete filled steel tube columns prepared with different amount of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) subjected to axial loading. The recycled coarse aggregates are obtained from the earthquake waste in Sichuan. Based on the studying of the physical and mechanical properties of recycled coarse aggregate, the mechanical property of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) with five concrete mixes with 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% RCA respectively are prepared. The behaviour of the circular solid steel tube columns are studied in terms of the load carrying capacity, ductility and strain response under axial compressive loading in addition to the physical and mechanical characteristics of RCA and RAC. The results show that the steel tube column gives lower ultimate bearing capacities when the RCA were added. However, no obvious difference on the failure modes were found between the steel tube columns filled with recycled aggregate concrete and normal concrete.
