Effect of microstructure of ITZ on compressive strength of concrete prepared with recycled aggregates

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of these aggregates (recycled and natural) on the microstructure and compressive strength of the new concrete were studied, and the results are explained by the differences in porosity and pore structure of the two types of aggregates, and possible interactions between the aggregates and the cement paste.

Microstructural analysis of recycled aggregate concrete produced from two-stage mixing approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage mixing approach (TSMA) is proposed to improve the compressive strength for recycled aggregate concrete and hence lower its strength variability, which can fill up some pores and cracks, resulting in a denser concrete, an improved interfacial zone around recycled aggregate and thus a higher strength when compared with the traditional mixing approach.
