“…(including RAC slabs, beams, columns, beam-column joints and frames) (Schubert et al 2012;Etxeberria et al 2007;Breccolotti et al 2010;Corinaldesi et al 2006;Xiao et al 2006). The prime finding from these studies is that, generally, although the presence of RAC may impair the elastic stiffness and ultimate capacity of the structural members to some extent, the performance of RAC structural members with appropriate design is comparable to those of the companion members made of normal concrete (NC).…”

A series of investigations on structural behaviour, durability, fire-resistance and seismic performance of composite members with recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) have been carried out in the past 10 years (2005–2014). This paper is consisted of three parts: the first part introduces and discusses the research progress in regard to the structural behaviour of RAC filled steel tubular columns and beams; the second part concentrates on the structural behaviour of steel-reinforced RAC members, including columns, beams, shear walls and slabs; and the third part focuses on the long-term performance of composite members with RAC, involving fire resistance, durability and seismic performance. It seems that RAC composite members with different replacement ratios of recycled coarse aggregate have slightly lower or similar structural behaviour compared to that of normal concrete composite members. Review results reveal that it is feasible to apply steel-RAC composite members as structural applications. This intensive review provides a reasonable knowledge of the structural behaviour of steel-RAC composite members, and recommends further investigations on the failure mechanics and durability of steel-RAC composite members which are needed to promote safe and economic application in the future.

“…So far, there are a number of researches on mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) at home and abroad (Ke et al 2009;Poon et al 2004;Xiao et al 2005;Xiao et al 2006a;Xiao et al 2006b;Xiao and Falkner 2007). Some basic conclusions confirmed are for example: the compressive strength of concrete prepared with natural coarse aggregates (NCA) is higher than that of RAC and the interrelationships between the mechanical properties of RAC could be quite different from those of NAC.…”

Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) becomes a great concern for massive natural resoure comsumption and a huge construction waste. Many researchers have carried out numerous investigations on the durability of RAC. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the achievements and share them with researchers involved in the study on RAC. In this paper, the main durability index and test methods have been reviewed from worldwide literature. Secondly, the durability of RAC including chloride diffusion, freezing and thawing resistance, abrasion resistance, absorption, drying shrinkage and carbonation has been summarized based on literature study. Thirdly, the Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) has been applied to find the most critical factor determining the durability of RAC compared with that of natural aggregate concrete (NAC). At last, new types of recycled concrete have been discussed and compared with NAC.

“…The shape of the stress-strain curves of RAC was similar to that of natural aggregate concrete (NAC), but the slope of the stress-strain curves decreased. Some results about basic mechanical properties and hysteretic behaviour of structural reinforced concrete members made of RAC have also been achieved, such as beam, 1,8 column, 1,9 beam-column joint, 10 shear wall, 11 frame 12,13 and frameshear wall.…”
