The influence of recycled aggregates on the frost resistance of concrete was studied by rapid freezing-thawing test. Results showed that there was an important effect of aggregate gradation on frost resistance of recycled coarse aggregate concrete. Frost resistance of recycled fine aggregate concrete was deteriorated with increasing the content of recycled fine aggregate, and recycled fine aggregate had a greater influence on the frost resistance of recycled aggregate concrete than recycled coarse aggregate when adding both together. Test showed that the mass loss rate and the relative dynamic elastic modulus loss are not consistent as evaluation indexes of the frost resistance for recycled concrete, and whether the mass loss rate is suitable as an indicator of frost resistance durability needs to be further studied.

Compared with natural aggregate, the content of hardening cement in recycled aggregate is larger, which leads that the water absorption of recycled aggregate is larger and its performance such as robustness is poorer. And the engineering field pays much attention to the problem of the recycled fine aggregate which can be used in the durability requirements of recycled concrete or not. Using the method of fast freezing and thawing the influence of quality and replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate on the frost resistance of recycled concrete was researched basing on ordinary concrete frost resistance performance. The results showed that, in terms of the frost resistance capacity, the order is in: ordinary concrete>high-quality recycled coarse aggregate concrete>normal quality recycled coarse aggregate concrete. After 250 freeze-thaw cycles, the mass loss rate of general quality recycled coarse aggregate concrete is 5%, relative dynamic elastic modulus is 60% when replace rate was 100%.

Dynamic Modulus Of Elasticity

Resistance to sulfate degradation is an important index used to measure concrete’s durability. In this study, recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) with a 0%, 30%, and 50% recycled coarse aggregate substitution rate and a 0% and 15% recycled fine aggregate replacement rate was used as the research object, and its degradation resistance was evaluated by the mass loss rate and the relative dynamic modulus of elasticity. The degradation products were studied and analyzed with SEM scanning electron microscopy and XRD phase analysis. The relative dynamic modulus of elasticity was selected as the degradation index, the RAC concrete’s degradation resistance was modeled by Wiener, and the reliability curve was obtained. The results showed that expansion products, such as gypsum and Ettringite, were produced in RAC concrete in a dry-wet sulfate cycling environment, and such defects as pores and voids were filled in the initial stage. The stress the expansion products exerted in the later stage caused the concrete to crack and peel, which demonstrated that the fluctuation law of mass and the dynamic elastic modulus increased first and then decreased. The recycled coarse aggregate substitution ratio’s effect on RAC concrete is higher than that of recycled fine aggregate. The reliability curve established by the Wiener model can reflect the reliability of RAC concrete under different cycles well and can obtain RAC concrete’s sulfate degradation resistance life with different aggregate substitution rates.

And Performance

This study is taken up to utilise the recycled coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate as replacement of natural aggregate in concrete mix. It is required to find the percentage of recycled coarse aggragate and recycled fine aggregate, as the strength of concrete can not be achieved by using higher percentaged. The purpose of study is to compare between recycled coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate with natural coarse aggregate and sand in terms of specific gravity, water absorption, particle size distribution. Further, this stydy will also consider the difference between the performance of Recycled Aggregate Concrete for different percentages of recycled coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate i.e for 0%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35% replacement. The present study is an experimental investigation on the behaviour of recycled aggregate concrete (coarse& fine aggregates) with respect to the strength and performance.

The properties of recycled coarsee aggregates from repeatedly recycling waste concrete were determined. In this study, five series of concrete mixtures using coarse and fine natural aggregates were prepared, which have the same objective slump value from 35mm to 50mm and different compressive strengths ranging from 25MPa to 60 MPa. These five concretes were crushed, sieved, washed with water, hot treatmented at 300°C before they were used as recycled aggregates. After that, recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) was produced with an objectively compressive strength of 30MPa, in which the recycled coarse aggregate was used as 30%, 70% and 90% replacements of natural coarse aggregate and recycled fine aggregate as 10%, 20%, and 30% replacements of natural fine aggregate. After that, these recycled concretes were used as second recycled aggregates to produce RAC with the same objectively compressive strength of 30MPa. The physical properties of coarse aggregates including apparent density, water absorption, attached mortar content and crushing value were tested and their mineral characteristics were analyzed. The results showed that the quality of recycled coarse aggregates from twicely recycling waste concrete reached the requirements from structural concrete.

In this paper shucking technique is developed to improve the performance of recycled coarse aggregate concrete. Comparison test has been done to demonstrate the good performance of shucking recycled coarse aggregate concrete than that of common recycled concrete. Simultaneously recycled fine aggregate concrete and recycled finely grinded admixture are extracted and studied too. Results show that this new technique can not only improve the performance of recycled material and enlarge recycled material type, but also make waste concrete to be reused completely.

Different amount of pumice were used to replace gravel to make mixed aggregate concrete, the fast freeze-thaw cycle test were conducted and the influence of pumice rate substitution to the frost resistance properties of concrete were studied.The mass loss rate, strength loss and relative dynamic elastic modulus were regarded as the evaluation index of frost resistance properties of concrete. Results showed that the mass loss rate and strength loss rate gradually decreased and the relative dynamic elastic modulus gradually increased with the increase of pumice rate, the mass loss rate, strength loss rate and the relative dynamic elastic modulus gradually decreased with the increase of freeze-thaw cycles. Polypropylene fibers could reduce the strength loss rate, improved the relative dynamic elastic modulus, but had little effect to improve the mass loss. Through the frost resistance, the frost resistance of concrete improved with the increase of pumice content, at the same time, polypropylene fiber also could improve the frost resistance of concrete.

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.

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.
