The impacts caused by RCCs are growing exponentially each year, which is why it is necessary to create measures to mitigate and minimize such an effect. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the physicalmechanical properties of the concrete from the gradual replacement of the natural fine aggregate by the recycled aggregate. The recycled concrete was made with substitutions of 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100% of recycled aggregate, whose water / cement factor was 0.7. Test specimens were produced and after the cure time of 7, 14 and 28 days the specimens were ruptured. It was possible to analyze that with the increase of the recycled aggregate substitution, the concrete strength increased, but did not reach an average resistance of 20 Mpa. Therefore it is possible to conclude that the use of recycled aggregate in the manufacture of low resistance concrete is.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
