This paper presents guidelines for using recycled-concrete aggregate (RCA) as a full or partial replacement for natural coarse aggregate in new concrete (RCA concrete). Several international standa...
And, concrete made up of recycled aggregate (RA), either as coarse or fine material, in partial or full replacement, is called recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). Given that RA is extracted from previously used construction materials, these aggregates are composed of old mortar, bricks, ceramics, tiles, etc., amongst others (Hansen, 1986 ; Kisku ...
Keestrack India offers mobile jaw crushers, screens (scalpers & classifiers), and stackers designed to recycle C&D waste into reusable products like aggregates for construction.
Recycled Aggregate can be used in the following constructions. Can be used for constructing gutters, pavements etc. Large pieces of crushed aggregate can be used for building revetments which in turn is very useful in controlling soil erosion. Recycled concrete rubbles can be used as coarse aggregate in concrete.
Although recycling and re-use are good alternatives to waste disposal, in Europe and the USA, for example, only 30% of the total CDW volume is consigned to recycling [13].This rate is even lower in some countries, such as China (5%) [7] and Portugal (9%) [14].In Brazil, a survey carried out in 2011 showed that CDW recycling plants operating at maximum capacity …

compressive test on recycled coarse aggregates, natural aggregates and 50% natural aggregates+50% recycled coarse aggregates. This is done to see and verify the various patterns. After getting sufficient values a mix design is prepared for 0% 50% and recycled coarse aggregates. Mix design is done as per I s 10262
Furthermore, recycled aggregates are included for use in nearly all of the European (EN) aggregate standards, though at varying implementation level. In India, a large deficiency of …
The construction industry generates a huge amount of concrete waste that needs to be recycled, which is said to be recycled aggregate (RA) being used for partial or total substitution of natural aggregate. Upscaling recycled aggregate in concrete production reduces dumped waste and decreases energy consumption in the extraction of new materials. However, the high water …

India's built environment has been increasing rapidly for the past few decades due to rapid changes in the construction ... physical properties than the natural coarse aggregate. Treatment of recycled concrete aggregate by acid, thermal and mechanical means improve the physical properties of RCA ...
Hossain et al. [77] presented the LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) analyses of recycled aggregates production from C&D waste in Hong Kong and their results revealed that compared with natural coarse aggregates, recycled coarse aggregates leads to a reduction of up to 65% greenhouse gas (GhG) emissions with savings of up to 58% non-renewable energy ...
Cement and PF content varied from 8 to 12% and 0% to 2% respectively in production of concrete blocks using Recycled Fine Aggregates (RFA) and Recycled Coarse Aggregates (RCA) at different ...
Recycled Coarse Aggregate (RCA) concrete construction technique can be called as 'green concrete', as it minimizes the environmental hazard of the concrete waste disposal. Indian standard recommends target mean compressive strength of the conventional concrete in terms of water cement ratio (w/c). The present work is an attempt to study the behaviour of RCA …
• Use of recycled aggregates prove to be valuable. • There is a need for modifying codes, specification • The subject of use of recycled aggregates in India should be given importance • Use of recycled aggregate as a replacement of natural coarse aggregate provides environmental friendly
In India, construction presently generating a lot of construction and demolition debris. We should consider available options to bring the waste to production lines by recycling. In this present research work we utilized recycled coarse aggregates collected from crushed concrete. In concrete, coarse aggregate is accounts for major volume of ...
After demolition of old roads and buildings, the removed concrete is often considered worthless and disposed of as demolition waste. By collecting the used concrete and breaking it up, recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is created (Fig. 1).This paper focuses on coarse RCA which is the coarse aggregate from the original concrete that is created after the …

To prepare the fresh concrete, coarse aggregates and fine aggregate were placed in a concrete mixer and allowed dry mix for 1 min. Concrete mix is proportioned with ratio of 1:1.5:3 for cement, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate. Amount of coarse aggregates were 1244.88 kg/m 3 and amount of fine aggregates were 622.44 kg/m 3. Then, the cement ...
Addressing the increasing demand for concrete due to advancements in the construction sector and population growth, this research explores the critical intersection of waste management and sustainable construction practices. By incorporating recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) derived from construction and demolition waste into concrete, waste reduction and …
the quality of Recycled concrete aggregate shows inferior physical properties than the natural coarse aggregate. Treatment of recycled concrete aggregate by acid, thermal and mechanical …

Coarse aggregate is considered as the most important component, which provides volume as well as strength to the concrete. It is mainly obtained from natural resources by quarrying rocks or dredging from the river bed. Every year, construction industries use huge quantities of natural aggregates, which leads to depletion of raw materials and degradation of …
