Properties and composition of recycled aggregates from construction and demolition waste suitable for concrete production
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the factors affecting the physical, chemical, mechanical, permeation and compositional properties of recycled aggregates sourced from construction and demolition waste, intended for concrete production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of aggregates from recycled construction and demolition waste in concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the international scenario in terms of C&D waste generated, recycled aggregates (RA) produced from construction and demolition waste and their utilization in concrete and governmental initiatives towards recycling of construction and Demolition waste is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative environmental assessment of natural and recycled aggregate concrete.
TL;DR: It is concluded that utilization of RAC for low-to-middle strength structural concrete and non-aggressive exposure conditions is technically feasible and the environmental impacts are slightly larger for RAC than for NAC but the total environmental impacts depend on the natural and recycled aggregates transport distances and on transport types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aggregate Bond and Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the difference between the modulus of elasticity of aggregate and of hardened cement paste is shown to influence the bond stress between the two materials and therefore the shape of the stress-strain relation.

Effects of Recycled Aggregate Characteristics on Performance Parameters of Recycled Aggregate Concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors pointed out the close relationship between several quality indicators of recycled aggregate and the performance of the recycled aggregate concrete, including the structure and amount of adhered mortar as well as the recovery percent of original coarser aggregate, especially the inclusion of recycled fine aggregate into the system, are the main reasons creating important differences in the permeable pore system and absorptivity.
