Different Content

This study examined the compressive behaviors of concrete with artificial sand that mixed with different content of stone powder (SP). Forty-five cubic specimens were prepared with two strength grades and five SP-content. Including 15 specimens (C35) of recycled coarse aggregate (RA) concrete with artificial sand (RCC35), 15 specimens (C45) of recycled coarse aggregate concrete with artificial sand (RCC45) and 15 specimens (C35) of natural aggregate concrete with artificial sand (NC35). The workability of concrete mixture and the compressive strength of the cubic specimens were tested. The results showed that the slump of concrete mixture decreased with the SP-content increased, and the coagulability and water retentivity of the concrete mixture were improved by using stone powder. The compressive strength of the concrete with artificial sand were increased by incorporating stone powder. The optimal SP-content of RCC35 and NC35 is 20%, while RCC45 is 10%.

Two Generations

Carbonation durability is an important subject for recycled coarse aggregate concrete (RAC) applied to structural concrete. Extensive studies were carried out on the carbonation resistance of RAC under general environmental conditions, but limited researches investigated carbonation resistance when exposed to chloride ion corrosion, which is an essential aspect for reinforced concrete materials to be adopted in real-world applications. This paper presents a study on the carbonation durability of two generations of 100% RAC with the effect of chloride ion corrosion. The quality evolution of recycled concrete coarse aggregate (RCA) with the increasing recycling cycles was analyzed, and carbonation depth, compressive strength and the porosity of RAC were measured before and after chloride ion corrosion. The results show that the effect of chloride ion corrosion negatively affected the carbonation resistance of RAC, and the negative effect was more severe with the increasing recycling cycles of RCA. Chloride ion corrosion led to a decrease in compressive strength, while an increase in carbonation depth and the porosity of RAC. The equation of concrete total porosity and carbonation depth was established, which could effectively judge the deterioration of carbonation resistance of RAC.

Concrete Building

Demolishing concrete building usually produces huge amounts of remains and wastes worldwide that have promising possibilities to be utilized as coarse aggregate for new mixes of concrete. High numbers of structures around the world currently need to be removed for several reasons, such as reaching the end of the expected life, to be replaced by new investments, or were not built by the local and international standards. Maintaining or removal of such structures leads to large quantities of concrete ruins. Reusing these concrete wastes will help in saving landfill spaces in addition to more sustainability in natural resources. The objective of this study is to investigate the possibility of using old recycled concrete as coarse aggregate to make new concrete mixes, and its effect on the evolution of the compressive strength of the new concrete mixes.  Core samples for demolished concrete were tested to determine its compressive strength. The core test results can be thought of as aggregate properties for the new concrete. Then, the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of the new recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) were determined experimentally by casting a cubes and cylinders, respectively. It was found that the evolution of compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete is similar in behavior to the concrete with natural aggregate, except that it is about 10% lower in values. It was also seen that water absorption for recycled aggregate is noticeably higher than that for natural aggregate, and should be substituted for in the mix design.

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.

In order to reveal the flexural behavior of normal section of steel reinforced recycled coarse aggregate concrete beams，6 steel reinforced recycled concrete beams were designed for flexural test，the study mainly considered the impact of coarse aggregate replacement rates and concrete strength grade two changing parameters on the flexural behavior of steel reinforced recycled coarse aggregate concrete beams. Through this test, the whole mechanical process、crack distribution and failure behavior of this kind of specimens were observed, and obtained the stress-strain distribution curves、the ultimate bearing capacity and load-displacement curves parameters. Based on the study measurement data, deeply analyzed the impact of coarse aggregate replacement rates and concrete strength grade on the flexural behavior of steel reinforced recycled coarse aggregate concrete beams. The result shows that: steel reinforced recycled coarse aggregate concrete beams’ failure pattern was similar to normal SRC beams, during loading process the section strain agreed with the plane-section assumption, and the beams have good bearing capacity and deformation performance.

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.

Waste Concrete

Recently reutilization of waste concrete becomes one of the hottest issues in civil engineering field throughout the world. However, most of the concerned research focuses on the RCA (recycled coarse aggregate) by simply crushing waste concrete. In this paper shucking technique is developed to secondary process the simply crushing waste concrete for improving the performance of RCA concrete. Test has been done to demonstrate that performances such as strength, elastic modulus et al. of shucking RCA concrete is better than those of common recycled concrete. Simultaneously, beam specimens are made to test the flexural behavior of shucking RCA concrete. Results showed that the deflection of shucking RCA concrete beam is approximately same with that of natural coarse aggregate concrete beam, which solves current problem that recycled aggregate concrete beam has bigger deflection than common concrete beam. The new shucking technique developed in this paper has many advantages to be applied in practical engineering and it has obvious economic benefits and social effect.

24 100mm × 100mm × 300mm recycled concrete prisms and 96 150mm × 150mm × 150mm cubes are completed in this paper.The relationships of the carbonation depth in each carbonation age with replacement rate of recycled coarse aggregate and fly ash is studied; The SEM is used to observe the interface structure of recycled coarse aggregate concrete and compared with ordinary concrete, and finally,a recycled concrete carbonation model is proposed. The results showed that: the substitution of recycled coarse aggregate and fly ash cut down the recycled concrete carbonation resistance significantly, which are related with the replacement rate; the content of Ca(OH)2 in the recycled aggregate concrete decreased ,also there are obvious interface transition zone between the recycled coarse aggregate and the new cement;obvious cracks and large voids are exist before the recycled aggregate concrete is loaded, which lead directly to lower carbonation resistance of the recycled concrete.

Recycled Coarse Aggregate

National effort to recycle construction waste as structural concrete usage of high economic value is ongoing, but performance rate of recycling is a low-level due to a lack of awareness on the recycled aggregates. Accordingly, the goal of this study was to verify the structural applicability of recycled aggregates. This study compared a compressive strength based on the replacement ratio of natural aggregate and recycled aggregate, and analyzed a correlation of wave velocity due to the increase in compressive strength under the same condition. The 『design standard strength – replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate』 was set to total 12 combinations by applying 0, 30, 50, 100[%] replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate to 21, 27, 35[MPa] to the design standard strength. During the experiment of fracture strength, strength degradation due to the replacement rate of recycled coarse aggregate did not occur, and it was found that the wave velocity also increased along with an increase in strength due to the age of recycled coarse aggregate concrete.
