Shear Strain Curve

This study examines the shear behaviors of concrete structure with recycled concrete and artificial sand (AS). Thirty-six beams were prepared with two strength grades (C35, C45) and different artificial sand replacement rates (0%, 30%, 50%, 70%, and 100%). They were submitted to four-point static stress test in order to distinguish the shear behaviors of ASCRC (AS-containing recycled concrete) and of natural concrete that is fabricated using original coarse aggregate and natural sand. Experimental results found the shear strengths values of the ASCRC were lower than the nature ones, with decreasing extents less than 20%. When AS-containing level ranged from 30% to 70%, the cube compressive and shear strengths were more lower than other replacement ratios. Shear force-shear strain curve of the ASCRC was found similar to that of the nature concrete. The peak strain of the ASCRC rose with the increase of the shear strength, but the slope of the curves was lower.

Recycled Coarse Aggregate

The complete stress-strain curves of recycled aggregate concrete with different recycled coarse aggregate replacement percentages were tested and investigated. An analysis was made of the influence of varying recycled coarse aggregate contents on the complete stress-strain curve, peak stress, peak strain and elastic modulus etc. The elastic modulus of RC is lower than natural concrete (NC), and with the recycled coarse aggregate contents increase, it reduces. While with the increase of water-cement ratio (W/C), recycled concrete compressive strength and elastic modulus improve significantly. In addition, put forward a new equation on the relationship between Ec and fcu of the RC.

In order to study the mechanical properties of recycled concrete with the same strength, three kinds of recycled concrete have been made which their intensities reached C25, C30, C35 at the recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratios (0%, 50%, 100%), and severally completed the stress-strain curve test on the same strength of recycled concrete, separately analyzed the variance about failure pattern and peak strain, elastic modulus that all belonged to recycled concrete under the condition of the same strength. Studies have shown that the overall shape of recycled concretes stress-strain curves is similar to normal concretes under the same strength, and the difference is small, modulus of elasticity decreases with the increase of recycled coarse aggregate replacement ratio, while the peak strain basicly remains unchanged. Their curves can be used two stages respectively and also be represented by three fitting polynomial and rational expression, their descent stages steepened gradually with the increase of recycled coarse aggregate replacement rate.

Curing Age

The effect of water-cement ratio and curing age on the strength of recycled concrete was studied by experiment with the combination of the recycled coarse aggregate adding natural sand. The results showed that with the increase of curing age, the greater the water-cement ratio is, the smaller the strength growth rate is; the smaller the water-cement ratio is, the greater the strength growth rate is. There is a relatively larger increase in the growth rate of 90d strength than 28d’, which is significantly higher than that of the ordinary concrete. The linear relationship between water-cement ratio and strength of recycled concrete is worse than that of ordinary concrete. Under the same water-cement ratio and curing age, the strength of recycled concrete is lower than that of ordinary concrete, and the empirical formulas between the strength of 28d and 7d, 90d and 28d were obtained.

Basic Properties

The basic characteristics of recycled coarse aggregate are completely tested. Crushed the waste concrete through artificial crushing, configured recycled concrete by reference to the mix proportion of ordinary concrete . Through experiments, recycled concrete and ordinary concrete basic properties were tested, the performance of recycled concrete with different coarse aggregate were compared, calculated the strength and amount of mold of recycled concrete; results showed that the basic properties of recycled coarse aggregate and natural aggregate existed certain differences. compared to the pebble-based recycled aggregate concrete strength can reach ordinary concrete strength, and when the new coarse aggregate and recycled coarse aggregate were the half, the strength of concrete was not high, the stress - strain curve and the ordinary concrete stress - strain curves were similar, destructive phenomenons of test cubes were close with ordinary concrete .

Experimental study on the flexural property of self-compacting recycled concrete (SCRC) beams with discontinuous graded recycled coarse aggregate is carried out with different replacement ratio of recycled aggregate and concrete grade. The similarities and differences on the failure modes between 4 SCRC beams and 2 normal beams were discussed. According to various replacement ratio of recycled aggregate and concrete grade，the influence on the carrying capacity，cracking ability，etc. of SCRC beams with discontinuous graded recycled coarse aggregate was also analysed. The results show that the failure modes, cracks of pure bend of SCRC beams and normal ones are similar. The vertical crack width of SCRC beams are bigger than the normal beams. There are small cracks in the shear bending section. The ultimate strength decrease slightly and the calculation formulas of current design standard can be used of flexural members which are made of SCRC.

Crucial Parameter

Recycled concrete research is one of the hot points at home and abroad currently. Whether the recycled concrete can be used in construction or not depends on its strength. Mixture ratio is an important factor deciding strength, while in which, the water cement ratio is one crucial parameter. So the calculation of unit water use in recycled concrete becomes an important research topic. The form of mixed coarse aggregate adding natural sand has already been studied by authors, the calculating formula for increasing water use has been put forward, but the calculation in other else case of aggregate combination form is not discussed. In this paper, the calculation for unit water use in recycled concrete in this case is discussed in detail, which can be used as a reference for designing the recycled concrete mixture ratio.

Abstract: As everyone is aware of the fact that Natural Coarse Aggregate (NCA) is the main constituent of traditional concrete mixes. Whenever an existing concrete structure is demolished, it produces smashed concrete waste in the large amount. Concrete waste give rise to negative effects on the environment. To evade the environmental pollution and mark effective reuse of the concrete waste as Recycled Aggregates in the place of NCA. This operative initiative provides an opportunity to reduce air pollution and soil exploitation to some extent. Such concrete is sustainable in nature and also eco-friendly to the environment. Also, such waste material will lower the usage of naturally occurring stone to produce NCA and thus various natural energy resources will be safeguarded. This study covers the suitability norms for a material to be used for Recycled Aggregate. In this study the natural aggregate is replaced with recycled aggregate in the different percentages (0%, 25%, 50%). When percentage of recycled aggregate mixed in the fixed proportion as percentage replacement to natural aggregates, it imparts improvement in the property of fresh as well as hardened concrete like, compressive strength & split tensile strength. Laboratory results of this research indicates that the value of compressive strength, tensile strength stress-strain curve & NDT of these mixes drives on decreasing, but at the 25% replacement level, it achieves target mean strength. Hence, for the fundamental concrete mix Natural Coarse Aggregate can be efficiently replaced by the Recycled Aggregate to the range of 25%.
