Use of Recycled Concrete Aggregate in Concrete: A Review

Abstract: Abstract. The use of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) in concrete as partial and full replacements of natural coarse aggregate is growing interest in the construction industry, as it reduces the demand for virgin aggregate. In addition, the use of RCA leads to a possible solution to the environmental problem caused by concrete waste and reduces the negative environmental impact of the aggregate extraction from natural resources. This paper presents a comprehensive review on the use of RCA in concrete based on… Show more

“…Therefore, it was expected that by substituting the crushed limestone with recycled coarse aggregate, the concrete's density would be lower. The results were similar to those in Safiuddin et al (34) and Khoshkenari et al (35).…”

“…RCA can be used as a replacement of natural aggregates in cement concrete (Berndt 2009;Dam et al 2012;Evangelistaa and de Britob 2013;Safiuddin et al 2013;Shayan and Xu 2003) or, in asphalt concrete (Arabani et al 2013;Paranavithana and Mohajerani 2006;Wong et al 2007). Marshall stability, resilient modulus and stripping potential of asphalt mixes containing RCA are found to be comparable to asphalt mix with natural aggregates (Wong et al 2007;Paranavithana and Mohajerani 2006).…”
